Hello all. In my long and arduous TiBB career there aren't many games that have escaped my control and so it seems only fair that I give this one a bash. I have a lot to live up to in Niamh, Benjamin and Z, but... I think I can handle it. I mean... I am me

Right - so I send you an answer for top and pointless? Have I got that confused?

Yeah, as long as it's clear which is which I don't mind how you format it in the message (although I can probably guess which is which from their obscurity)

11 sets of answers so far (including my own), I'll list them in case anyone thinks they've submitted theirs but they haven't: Mitchell, Matthew, MTVN, James, Rob!, parmnion, MB, Strictly Jake, Calderyon and Niamh.
I'll probably edit this post with more names as I receive them rather than do a new post every time

Reminder that you have until the early hours of tomorrow to submit votes for either game! I'll post the results at a very silly time indeed.
It can mean anyone that was evicted, and therefore did not make the final. But for the Pointless game, they have to have been evicted (and not walked, or ejected)
