By the previous stats/winners climbing to #1 they have risen from only positions: 2,3,7,8,11 and 13.

So in theory the next winner should be Livia, marsh, Benjamin, Lostie, Niamh or Shaun.

[Calderyon]

I would let Rita give me Her name + L, if she wanted to.

Who voted poor Rose out of the top 10

[Josiah.]

I've noticed that I have never once made it onto the Top 50 for Most Loved, but that's fine with me.

[Amy Jade]

I am still shocked I placed where I did

[Ammi]

..I've been putting off coming in here because I knew I would get emotional but let's get it over with...

..LukeB is a beautiful person and a beautiful winner so that's perfect and I know that this will mean so much to him, to know how much he's loved, well done Luke..B is for beautiful......


..this all takes me back to last time and waking up to the news of Liv, so to see her as top female and 2nd place, well enough of that because she knows..you've meant so much to me Liv..you are stunning....


..well done to everyone, there are some great placings, I personal have waited so long to let Amy know..(officially..)...how much she means to me, and I see that it's been the same for others...Amy don't ever opt out of anything again and believe in yourself....

..I can't go through all of the names...there are some placings that I know some might feel less than happy with but you shouldn't because it makes no difference at all to how much you're loved by the people whose lives you've touched ..the placings change each time but the love and the feelings and appreciation stays the same......


...a great ML, well done all..it's a privilege knowing you all......

[Ammi]

...except reece because he stole my line, I was going to announce the 5am start/change myself....

[Mystic Mock]

I've been really late to the proceedings so I've got a lot to say.

Most importantly well done to LukeB and the rest of the top 13 for putting up such a fantastic fight at the top, it was very entertaining to watch, almost up there with Arsenal, Man Utd, and Man City having to chase Leicester in the Premier League.

And Dollface I was the one that voted for you saying that you can be immature sometimes, I'm sorry if it has offended you as I can be very immature myself sometimes so it's not that bigger deal to me if someone is immature or not anyway.

Thanks to anybody that voted for me, I honestly didn't expect Amy Jade to have voted for me, we both ended up voting for each other.

[Ammi]

...thank you so much Ben, you do a great job with this and all of the games that you do......

[Shaun]

I actually couldn't sleep for a while because this had put a ridiculous smile on my face LOL - I was looking forward to seeing what I'd said about those I voted for making them happy and it did. And even if I did flop and am now one of the mortals (gross) I've kinda reserved it with how quiet I've been and I'm more than happy with the words I received thanks ben. I haven't seen who won yet LOL but congrats to whoever it was.

[Ammi]

...that caravan really melted you Shaun.....you're such a mush now..great for all who love you..(and there are many..)...but yeah, it's humanised you babe....

[Ammi]

..I don't think I've ever called anyone babe before in my life, this goddamn forum lingo...

[Ammi]

..anyways, lovely ML...

[Shaun]

Shut up ammi

[Ammi]

..yes darling....

[Shaun]

Oh and my vote etc etc

Spoiler:

1) Chaos - Don't get cocky bitch, you're only #1 because Ammi opted out. I am most comfortable with Caitlin when reading her to filth and exchanging the nastiest insults that wouldn't and couldn't be repeated on here without 3 month bans, and you could be forgiven for thinking that's an unhealthy friendship (and you'd be right because she is basically AIDS 12% of the time). But she is almost always the first person I turn to for advice, to rant about family and friends, to plan things and think things through, and I can only hope that I return the favour enough for her because I'd be lost without her. As the grumpy mum and dad of COL2 we may have pooped on a few parties, and she probably spent half the time watching Pretty Little Liars instead of talking to us, the rancid dyke, but I can't help but feel I've made a lifelong friend in Caitlin and someone who I can fully trust and respect. Minor cat obsession aside.

2) Drew. - I've probably had more fall-outs with Drew in the time since COL1 (and Most Loved...12, was it?) than I had with him at all in the years prior he's been on here. We've had awkward moments and the odd blow-up, mostly misunderstandings, that I think was embarrassing/uncomfortable for both of us, but what it has taught me is how much I value him as a friend. Most of them stemmed from not really being able to figure each other out. Much like his favourite film's character (Shrek), he has many many layers, and whilst at first I saw pretty much the token boring heterosexual that likes to kick footballs at his classmates on YouTube, in the year or so I've gotten to know him I've had the privilege of getting to see the other sides; I didn't think Drew would be a member I pour my heart out to, but it now seems almost commonplace. He's just extremely supportive, knows how to cheer me up almost 100% of the time (the exceptions being whenever he reminds me of DJ Ironik), has been more than what I could've wished for when it came to needing to get (super-personal) stuff off my chest - my text inbox is now basically like notes from an amazing psychiatrist, with occasional outbursts directed at Jess Glynne - and he's great to mutually vent about work with. Plus he organised the Arsenal tickets. I don't really 'do' nice paragraphs without a silly comment at the end but I love you Drew <3

3) _LucasMichael_ - the producers had to step in after COL1 and split us up because neither of us were putting out for each other (Lucas had Novo, I had the children's swimming pool down the road), so for a while it did seem that the dream team was over, but ALAS, we are unbreakable. So on the face of it Lucas is this silly wacky homosexual that tells people to die a lot and hates a lot of stuff on Twitter and has absolutely no alcohol tolerance whatsoever, which I must admit is basically his shtick and I can't lie and tell you "oh no it's all for the cameras, when I met him he was actually nose-deep in a Dostoevsky and raconteuring me about his experiences with furniture reupholstery", but there is indeed so much more: Lucas does have a heart somewhere in there and he's someone who it is just effortlessly easy to unload on and natter and share mutual interests and always get along with. Obviously I think I just have an inherent "don't trust the straight blokes" program operating somewhere, but even in a world of bitchy, trashy, nasty gays, Lucas is a rough diamond. Emphasis on the rough but there is a diamond there. Slay, queen Lucas.

4) Jake. - I said in the last Most Loved (PREVIOUSLY) that Jake was sort-of the member who, when meeting everyone, I just instantly clicked with and seemed to exchange knowing-looks with often and had the same sense of humour, so with the 2nd holiday that only really increased. Jake's someone I honestly admire - in terms of his maturity, how hard he works, how much he's put up with, how level-headed and responsible and fair he is, and yet at the same time great company - and at such a young age as well. He's an incredibly thoughtful and valuable friend and I can't really say more than that, he's just an all-round great guy. We might not talk so much lately with his new job and other time issues but I know I can always count on him to listen and help out and just be a great friend.

5) Locke. - If I open up Skype on a day where Purdy hasn't said a thing then I'm pretty much guaranteed that I'm not going to read something that interests me. I think it's strange how different our personalities are and yet how strikingly similar our tastes in film/TV/other stuff is - I think we might need some negotiating on the music, but then I'm sure he'll happily lend me the entire Trapped in the Closet boxset to enlighten me. But Purdy is basically the ultimate drinking friend (which is more than a nice way of saying "I only like him when I'm drunk", honest) - hilarious, super-quick to get a joke/make one, a vast knowledge of Arsene Wenger's shortcomings, and a useful knack for finding the nearest tractor.

6) LemonJam - James I swear to god if this Australia nonsense turns out to be what should have happened to Ben instead (ie. you stay out there and never talk to us again), I will burn a Portuguese flag and never look at an azn again. I have to be honest in that I'm hoping this is enough points to give you the sorely-deserved "underdog" status you so clearly don't deserve (you should be TiBB ROYALTY, BITCH), but at the same time you've always secretly been my favourite zetan on account of that "The TiBBs, They Are A-Changin'" eurovision entry. Speaking of which you had better take part next year. I am not having you Aretha Franklin your way through TiBB and becoming retired and huge and hairless. That is for Glenn. (I am sorry Glenn I just felt a bald joke was timely).

7) Dezzy - Forever TiBB's lionheart, the Man with the Darkwood Isle in his Eyes. Dezzy lurks under the ivy and dreams of sheep, but enough about Sheppy. He's taken TiBB to wuthering heights with his stellar games and writing and moderating, and does TiBB's very own version of cloudbusting (the clouds being messes that need a ban). You'd be running up that hill before you found a better member of staff on here (no tea no shade, other mods). This woman's work knows no bounds. I (hounds of) love you dean <3 (and I won't end this vote with 50 words for 'snow').

8) Nathan - I want you to type this entire reason out with Google Trish. Nathan is a top bit of muff and knows all of the banter. Nathan got a happy birthday from Wagner. He has touched greatness and given some of it back. He does not tolerate crappy little cats like Meowzie, and his mum is somehow even better than him.

9) Raph - we really don't get much time to talk on here / on Skype / elsewhere, so I'm really just basing this placing on the few times we've met up since the last time I wrote something for ML... Raph is Raph. Probably the friendliest person I've met. Super laidback, non-judgmental, the coolest voice imaginable and a total BB nerd. We share VERY few favourites in common (thank god for Sam Kay) but it doesn't really matter because he's not going to scream at me "DUDE, KATHREYA ****S ALL OVER SARA", he's just too lovely for that sort of thing. I'm also voting for him because he managed to cheer up Jake on the Day From Hell, and that is no mean feat.

10) Z - Honestly, last time, when I didn't even nominate him in round 1, it was sort of like I'd just stabbed him in the ball sac. And I feel horrible for ever doing it (but I had one of those "let's vote for the underdogs and forget Greg because he's not even here any more, the stupid has-been" moments). Greg is still Greg, a wonderful constant in my life that it's been lovely to see grow up from the daft Sugababes-stanning closet case into the daft Sugababes-stanning gay. His boyfriend seems lovely. Like he's no 'Shaun' but I'm happy for you Greg bc you deserve everything and more, you insatiable (I am only using this word because of Nadine Coyle) slut.

[Ammi]

..seriously though..(and I'm sorry this is coming after your post Mokka, I logged off for a few minutes and have only just seen yours and this was something that I had wanted to say anyway..)...it's more going back to my post to Shaun etc...

..Most Loved is about us having that opportunity to tell people what they mean to our time on the forum, how much they add to it and how much their friendship means..it's about showing our love and about giving our love..a bit like gifts really, to see that person receive those gifts of love in their placings and the things that they're reading about themselves and to see others giving them that gift as well because they mean a lot to them also../to see and feel their happiness...that's the pleasure, to give that love and if any of that fondness is returned then that's just a bonus and of course it's lovely but it's not the real thing and the real meaning and the real pleasure...which is to have that chance to show and say/put down in words...

[Shaun]

*undergoes a tragic emo phase of changes about myself to try and desperately achieve a top ten place in 14*

IS IT BECAUSE I DIDN'T DO ICB????? I'LL DO FIVE ICBS... I'LL EVEN LISTEN TO PVRIS DID I MENTION I LOVE BB CANADA?????

Everything you have said in your posts above are spot on Ammi.

I love this event,I even had Cousins visit last night and was actually irritated I had to leave the thread for a while to be with them.

This is a great event, it beats anything on TV and I love all the twists and turns of each poll when they are done.

It must be time consuming for who does it and Ben has filled the role left by Zee perfectly.
I am sad Ben is stopping doing this but whoever takes it on, I wish all the very best to.
Again congratulations to all who made the final 50,and on all their placings no matter what that placing is.

Obviously a fantastic battle at the top this time,with massively worthy winners among all of them.
Luke B is a great member and I have connections with him on the football prediction game run by BigSister.
So I was over the moon he won this.

Just going to end now with another thank you to Ben for doing this and to say you will be missed as you really keep it going on the results night and that cannot be an easy thing to do.

Great posts as ever Ammi, you always sum up things in just the right way.

[Benjamin]

Some other facts for you all:

* at one point the top ten had six females in it.

* Shaun, Niamh and Dezzy are the only members to appear in every countdown.

* I had more votes than last year (I believe the highest amount ever) yet the points were closer than ever. Literally every time a set of votes came to my PM the order changed quite a bit.

[Kazanne]

Congratulations, to everyone who was named in this,well done and a special well done to Luke .
