The Battle of the Commentators

[BoyBrumby]

Waqar? My lord, why not nominate Healy & be done with it?!

Anyway, I'll second Athers & Gower. Thought Goughy had nominated Trueman too tho?

EDIT: Fannies. Beaten to it.

 

[cameeel]

Second Bill Lawry and Michael Atherton

 

[SJS]

Second Sidhu.

 

[Goughy]

Yeah, I did nominate Trueman,

Second Mbangwa

 

[archie mac]

Yeah, I did nominate Truman,

Second Mbangwa

I must have missed that, 2nd Fred

I don't mind Roebuck tbh

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Whoops... missed Trueman off the list above. Now corrected.

We have 34 commentators nominated and seconded. Might have to make the first round have 3 options per skirmish, or we could just start and have a couple of 3 options skirmishes randomly in the first round.

What would more experienced 'battlers' recommend in these circumstances?

 

[archie mac]

That sounds fine (3 in a couple of early rounds) or maybe we could seed a couple?

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

I might just leave the start to tomorrow morning (NZ time) to let the UK daytime have their fair share of nominating/seconding time, and maybe we'll get 48 starters to make the first round a 3 option one. The cream will still rise to the top!

Wotcha talking about, Willis?














I apologize profusely, I couldn't get on the forum for hours, and I've clearly gone stir-less crazy.

I couldn't either. Must have been a database problem.

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Due to the Cricketweb forum being down last night (daytime in the UK) I will start the battle tomorrow morning NZ Time. Each battle will run for 24 hours or until an individual commentator leads by over 10 votes in a particular battle.

This will give anyone an extra 12 hours in which to complete nominating and seconding...

 

[BoyBrumby]

Nominate Simon Hughes

No love for the analyst? He's one of the best technical commentators around just now IMHO.

 

[nightprowler10]

Waqar? My lord, why not nominate Healy & be done with it?!

He's good to listen to when he's on about fast bowling, other than that he's crap.

Oh and second Raja, just to have some Pakistani representation in the battle.
