Big shame this didn't happen tis v good.

Just funny how ppl moan about not being included

I was going to bump the discussion thread the other day but didn't want to reopen that can of worms.

Massively disappointing that Tighty isn't doing one this year, the 2011 thread was one of the best threads on here.

Great shame, was always (well both times anyway) a well written, fun thing that celebrated a good amount of what makes Blonde different to most forums

[leethefish]

Agree on all counts .... Why I posted

last door is the most prestigious what you trying too say about tighty lol

Nah. Been done and all the best people have been selected.

There might be half a dozen or so names left you'd include without hesitation, but you don't want to be scratching around for a few towards the end. Plus, if you didn't make the 48, think how bad you'd feel if you didn't make the 72...

Unfortunately, everyone who hasn't already been in an advent calendar has been banned for wanting to be in an advent calendar

I was thinking we could have a BADvent calendar with all the ppl who have been banned. Titty, Ho, Herbie, Pleno

Thinking about it, most people who have been banned at some point, were included in the advent calendar over the two years.

Not sure why it needs to completely revolve around people.  I would have thought it could be a great review of the year on Blonde, reminding existing members of the good times in 2013 and giving new members a great snapshot of what Blonde is all about.  Perhaps that is highlighting certain people or threads or an update photo or tournament successes or the Blonde community helping when a member posts a problem.

Only needs a bunch of people to agree to take a few 'doors' each, and away you go, post up some pics, links, videos, whatever it may be.  I'm sure for those that don't necessarily have time to read most of what's on Blonde, it would be a must read thread.

It makes me laugh so much how offended people get at who gets chosen.

The advent calender is a bit of fun, and a bit of recognition for people who have done things for not only Blonde, but Poker as a whole.

Tighty puts the work in, Tighty spends time writing the posts, why shouldnt he decide who gets a door.

Honestly, there arent many people who could be as accurate and unbias anyway. Even a vote system is flawed, because Im sure I could get myself on the list through voting and I havent done anything significant for Poker/Blonde.

yeah i was probably childish and bitter about not being in top 50 on blonde, apologies about that and wouldnt expect to be in tightys next 24 or complain about not being in either.

edit: realised it was mantis and not me arguing about it!


Do we have the list of the 48? Its too hard to trawl through the two threads.
