Welcome Kirk

Thank you Adam. You were on my list, and you KNOW how I feel about you. I think that you are MASSIVELY underrated AND underappreciated on here - but NOT by me.

I usually advise the people I voted for with my reasons off the thread but below are the members I nominated this time round.
In no particular order.

Mystic Mock.
Jack_ (May 2008 member).
Kizzy.
Josy.
JoshBB
Ross.
Nicky91
BigSister
ToySoldier
Drew
Jake
LukeB
Livia.

Tom*

Oh to blazes, here too are my votes and reasons.

Jack_ Jack is amazing,ever since ISP days, my liking and respect for Jack has just grown enormously.
Across the board he makes great posts but in serious debates his posts are powerful and inspiring.
I love his vision of how politics should be and how the UK should be governed.
One of TIBBs greatest assets is Jack_ ,I am privileged to now term him as a friend on TIBB.

LukeB, Great member, won last time deservedly and one of my fellow footie game participants, always friendly too.

Josy, I rate Josy extremely high, you can go to her with anything and she is always there and deals with things accordingly if they need to be
A genuinely decent person.

Kizzy,I adore Kizzy, I agree with her on so many issues.
The way she deals with any sarcastic putdowns is impressive, she sticks to the issues and rides above it all.
She gets unfair criticism at times in my view and is an awesome poster.

ToySoldier, truly powerful poster, relentless in making his points.I love how he pursues correctly any comeback to him that takes things off track.
Love reading his posts across the board.

Ross, another fellow player in footie prediction games, always appreciative and very friendly.great member.

Drew, I find Drew one the nicest people on TIBB,he does the footie games too, always has time for you and is really genuine.

BigSister, Great to have BigSister included here again, organises the footie prediction games so well and is always there to help with problems.

Jake, Jake is a first class member across the board too, I love his posting and he too is always very friendly and appreciative.
Quite a strong competitor too in the games he takes part in.

Nicky91, a new member who has really woken TIBB up.
Love his enthusiasm and his commitment to the games he organises.
I just wish I had more time to devote to his games he sets up on here.
A great addition to the forum.

thanks it means so much and you got my 9 points as there was no way i couldnt give my Queen Livia 10

Congrats Lostie :clap1:

ah well done Lostie, what a great winner :lovedup:

Great job Ammi, sorry I missed it and thanks to anyone who voted for me, loved the comments :love:

Cheers Kirk, means a lot. I too, had yous both on my list

You weren't on my list of ten, Adam, as a line on the ten has to be drawn somewhere, that doesn't mean though if we had a longer list than ten to choose that you wouldn't have been on it, there were a few such as yourself and Tom for instance I would have loved to include if the list was a little longer, so well done on your placing well deserved in making that top 50 and am sure your placing will be even higher next time. Livia got my 10 points also, and Kirk was on my list of ten.

Thanks means so much and such kind words

This was my list :love:

1) Josy - I feel like I have a lot in common with her and could speak to her about anything in confidence and trust her totally. She does so much for the forum and is very fair and alot of times she has to put up with crap for it.
2) LeatherTrumpet - He jokes around alot and sometimes I can't tell if his opinions are just provocative or actually serious but he's such a character on TiBB and he's a really nice guy as well even if he pretends he's not, one of my favourite people on here. He prods people a bit but he never gets personal or insulting.
3) Lostie - I'm so fond of Lostie, we have good TV chats and he has very good taste. He's just really a lovely guy and he adds so much to the forum
4) Marsh - He's a very naughty boy alot of times and causes me headaches but he's also very funny and a lovely guy, a loveable rogue
5) ToySoldier - Sometimes I think he's the male version of me.......or maybe my evil twin. I agree with most of his opinions and I find him very witty
6) Livia - Lately I feel like I've been disagreeing with alot of her posts and we don't talk as much as we used to but she's still one of my favourites and TiBB wouldn't be the same without her
7) Nathan - Nathan would normally be alot higher on my list but since he's not here alot It wouldn't feel right scoring him higher. I still couldn't leave him off my list though because he's definitely one of my all time favourite members, he's lovely and incredibly witty. I miss him and the forum misses him
8) LukeB - Lovely friendly guy, I always enjoy a chat with him
9) Jamie89 - Again just a really nice friendly guy, have a lot of time for him
10) Natalie - Lovely girl, always friendly and his great taste in TV shows

-Burns my Irish flag-

:idc:

Since this is Ammi's baby now and she has done this magnificently,it flowed really well.

She will know if this is a bad thought or not but since we now nominate 15 members to be included in the final 50, would it make things more difficult if we then also voted with reasons for 15 members from the final list of 50 too.

I obviously however bow to her thinking and decision on this one.

Here was my initial 15:

Well done again, Ammi x

Just want to say thank you to everyone who's left a congrats post, it's all been really lovely to read. :love:

Thank you Suze. :flowers::kiss:

Feel THE LURVE Ashley. :flowers::kiss: Thank you.

:fist: Before the next ML, I am going to visit Blarney Castle, and kiss the stone TWICE. I WILL win you over yet. :hee:

:laugh2:

I you do that, you'll be on my list I promise :laugh:

:laugh: I'll hold you to that Niamh. But all the Irish people I know in real life swear that I've already kissed it. :hee:

:love: Thank you Kirk

Not Marsh giving me the same reason he gave Rob and Ross yet I'm considerably lower than the other 2.

(thanks Marsh and likewise :love:)

Well done on the placings all, especially Lostie! Well deserved and overdue.

And Ammi you did an amazing job hosting, organising and running this! It's such hard work and you did it beautifully. :love:

Dezzy
Daniel-X
Cherie

Tom*

(Ammi reminded me Cherie had posted out so my final vote went to MysticMock)


My Final Votes (in random order)

Hayden
Hayden is one of the members of the forum who I feel adds so much and gets little credit.

LukeB
For me Luke is one of the most lovely people on the forum, he's friendly, funny and genuine. We have definately had our ups and downs but he's like a bit of a brother to me, we don't always talk and sometimes we argue but I know if I need to vent or chat I know Luke would be there.

KirkLancaster
I adore Kirk, he is easily one of my TiBB faves. A true gentleman with a heart of gold. I am so pleased we got to know eachother better last year.

Will
Will never fails to crack me up with some of his random threads, you never know what to expect from him and that unpredictability are what makes Will amazing. Also he's a great friend, he's stuck up for me a few times and it's very much appreciated.

Livia
Livia is somebody I don't speak to as much (mostly because I don't want to bother her) but I admire her a lot, she's intelligent and hilarious with an enormous heart.

Nicky91
What's not to love about Nicky? he's honestly the sweetest person and his enthusiasm and friendliness is infectious and I think in his short time here he's made TiBB a nicer place to be.

Dezzy
Dezzy really intimidated me to begin with, I had no idea how to take him but after playing a few of his forum games I've come to understand him a lot better (I think...) I find mysf agreeing with him so often during BB it's sorta strange, too.

Jamie89
First of all, Congrats on winning Revolution! you were a favourite of mine from the start of that game. My votes here though are for you being such a nice, thoughtful person.

Tom*
This time last year I didn't have Tom on my list, frankly because I'm a bitch sometimes and Tom and I are both pretty stuborn - He's on my list this year though because he's a great forum member and above all he's a lovely guy!

Ross
Everything that's right in a person! Don't chat to him as much as I should but what's not to love? I should be bitter he beat me in BB but he's too amazing to bare a grudge <3

tbh i dont really think people should show who they voted for

:umm2:

er why are you doing this?
