(Slightly late) CW Awards for 13th-20th May

I'm not sure whether to post the reply to Swervy's post in my direction because I asked that people didn't do so it'd be hypocritical but feel it leaves a bad taste.

The post wasn't really directed towards you, although I think I made a point in a later post which related to my disappointment to your statement.

I don't think it would be hypocritical for you to respond. As I have said, everyone on here should have the right to reply to anything that is said. Best get it out of the way, and move forward.

As I say , I ain't gonna be on here for a while in a bit due to moving house etc, would rather all issues resolved if I am a core problem of the issues.

To be honest, this whole thread has made me cringe.. I tried with the policeman and teacup graphics, but it obviously wasn't enough..

Swervy: To be honest mate, I'm done with the whole thing now. I think people are taking themselves way too seriously for an internet forum.

My response was a very general comment on the whole sniping thing which I'm getting a bit bored of, I hadn't read all the previous posts just 'pasag's first one on the topic and it seemed 'pasag' was arguing something which I've noticed too.

As for clique stuff, you're welcome to believe what you wish, I don't speak to any of these people off the forum nor have I spoken to anyone from CW on MSN for ~3 months and I don't feel I've acted in a different manner to this as I have to any other but if you feel that then it's a free world.

I've cut this down a lot btw if you're wondering what Richard was on about, the reply was huge but I permanently deleted it.

That's all I have to say on it really, hope your house move goes OK. :)

Haha, I thought the same thing to be honest. My initial post was a relatively light request for things to calm down and it failed to do that and people have taken things a little too seriously all the way through this thread.

Yeah, it's a fair cop. I wouldn't normally respond in such a manner, I guess the whole thing riled me in a way that has probably even surprised me.

Respect to you for not closing it, TBH. IMO it has calmed down... and naturally, rather than through hard-handed "right, stop this, now" modding... and in addition things have been sorted-out, I think, pretty maturely. Everything on this page (post #201 onwards) is very much un-angry.

(*Cue the whole thing blowing-up again...*)

Ok this is atrocious.

I need a summary of what's been said in the last couple of pages, frankly i think its quite hilarious that everyone needs to write an essay to put their message across :laugh:

Dear Sir/Madam

Right. I've had enough and I wish to protest in the strongest available manner.

In my opinion, this thread is about one person and one person only. I'll be giving you no clues by saying that one person is supposed to be the one person here capable of scaring the **** out of opposition batsman and his own team mates alike with his extreeeeeeeeeeeme pace. This erstwhile, self-absorbed person desired to bask in the glory of receiving his first award since 1995, and despite repeated polite requests for the arguing of others (detracting from his glory) this has continued unabated. In fact, it is as if everyone arguing knew that I was hoping to not only bask in my own glory (but also the collective glory of other award winners as my name adornes the honours board alongside them).

It is time to highlight a few things that need to happen here. Firstly, before posting anything bitchy or designed to remove glory from the aforementioned fast bowler, I suggest you sing (out loud or to yourself, preferably out loud) Inbetweendays by the Cure as its overwhelming happiness will convince you either to not post something bitchy or that you would rather be outside (doing something less boring instead, why don't you??). Secondly, there should be a league table or honours board somewhere listing all people who have won an award. My name should be highlighted in bold and underlined and put at the top of the honours board.

To all those people out there, and in conclusion. This is a cricket site. Therefore, this site is NOT about you. It is about me. I am, and always have been, the best thing about cricket and in fact I have been described by the media as the EPITOME of cricket and what makes my sport great.

Thank you.

Glad to see you happy again mate, and you can stay on the awards team as long as you like:)

And yes this smashes all awards thread records for the amount of posts, I think the best before was when I upset a lot of people during the Inzi/Hair affair

Yeah, :laugh: TBH. I hope we're all slung-out now, TBH, and that shall be the last word.

As Sean (archie) says, let's not let this affect the Awards.
