Sorry but I was in a meeting from 9:30 til lunch time. See that I missed all the fireworks. I have to say that I am saddened and disappointed that 2 individuals that I like and admire and thought were friends would act this way. Personally, I could care less how the 2 of you work things out or if you decide not to, and it seems to be over (I hope), but to be consistent and fair since I said the same to TJ and AB a while back: if I see one more condescending or profanity-laced or obnoxious or whatever post from either Behad or codell (to each other and in general), then they are out of this thing. Take a deep breath and back away from your computers, slowly. I guess this cinches my decision to NOT do this thing next year.
ALL the votes you got were sympathy votes! Now if people could just start giving me some sympathy votes as well!
Bickering on the BBS about hair, babies, and nah nah boo boo what you say about me sticks to you. An instant classic thread.
Have to agree. I feel bad about being interested in it because real feelings are involved, but it is a bit like the curiosity in watching a car accident. Also, it is something new, I think, because I have seen many times where people would b**** each other out online, but calling someone names because of something that happened in real life is on another level...it's sad. BUT...entertaining for the rest of us, in a sick way!

Just reading this for the first time and I wanted to add two cents worth of advice for the future: I don't think you should accept any email votes. To even read this, you have to have an active account so there should be no problem posting. There are duplicate account fraud checks all the time (believe me - it happens). With email, anyone can easily vote 10 times. If people are worried about offending someone by posting their vote against them in public, then you should make it so people can vote via email (to Manny) only though the BBS ... that way he can easily tell it's a BBS account that is voting. But personally I wouldn't even allow that much. Again, just my thoughts
Clutch, Never thought about the multiple email accounts thing. Actually, only one person has been voting by email and he quit voting when he got knocked out. But, yea, I will institute that suggestion for next year IF I decide to do it again - which right now doesn't look too good.
mrpaige vs. Another Brother Behad vs. codell Rocketman95 vs. B-Bob (D*mn B-Bob has had the toughest match-ups in every round. Sorry RM95, but I've abstained on B-Bob too many times) rockHEAD vs. Manny Ramirez Raven Lunatic vs. SmeggySmeg DaDakota vs. Rockets2K Sir Jackie Chiles vs. MadMax moestavern19 vs. drapg
I'd like to thank everyone who voted for me once again, Even if I do beat drapg, I know for sure I don't stand a chance againt the greatness that is MadMax. Just making it this far has made me proud to represent the youth of the BBS. This win is for Kam, Chicken Boy, DBC, no_answer, vj23k, Zac_D, Truth, tpl, The Cat and all the other great young posters out there.
Thanks moes, and, just so you know, your matchup with drapg really did pretty much come down to a coinflip. I could've sworn Behad and codell were kidding...
