Indeed. As soon as I decided to run this game I knew I wanted him as the very first Task Master.

Thank you too, to LT for being a wonderful and brutal Task Master.
Fantastic game Ben, great hosting I really enjoyed it and was hilarious being compared to a preying mantis looool.

Thanks LT. X

Also I thought it was Cherie because the comments were very eloquent and witty and I was sure that befitted her. LT never crossed my mind. Hehe. Not saying he's not witty.

It's a bit revealing how much LT probably has to turn himself down to stay within forum guidelines...

Any suggestions/feedback at all is welcome, as you did the tasks etc. I tried to make the game work around the players as much as possible, so want to ensure if I run again I factor anything I may have missed into it.

The main Task that traumatised me, the very first one was the design a horse. I think I enjoyed everything else, it was very challenging and it was a great cast. I loved the Taskmasters identity being secret, and our entries submitted anonymously. I'd certainly play again and that's the biggest compliment.

I also really liked the team challenges working together.

Aw Ben, this has been one of my fave forum games. I'm a huge TaskMaster fan and so have loved playing this. Thanks so much and I hope you do run it again. Great host and great TaskMaster.

Great job LT

Great job Benji

and yes I guessed the Taskmaster right, couldn't miss all the Rangers references, not to mention the shoes
I knew it was LT from the first judging. He used the word "recalcitrant" when he was critiquing my entry. LT is the only person, online or in real life, that i have ever seen/heard use that word

Yay, very happy to hear that.

Glad, there’s another Task Master fan on the forum. I’m currently rewatching season 12 (Alan Davies season) on Netflix.

I actually think 5 (possibly 6) is the perfect amount. Too many would over complicate it I reckon.

Mods would have an upper hand for sure since y'all would have to over analyze people's personal writing styles and their preferred roasting methods...

I know most of you hated this task, but I thoroughly enjoyed it because you made me laugh quite a lot.

Some examples being….
It was my favourite task personally.

Even though I sucked at it really badly.

The one question I should've asked was what country was the animal from.
