Before we start honoring, um, *checks notes* tommy, I'd like to say a few other things.

Thanks to everyone who participated, voted, colluded, complained, and tolerated this years tournament. Without you, I would be making 68 posts and then breaking 68 ties of 0-0. Thanks to the 66% of wisemen who remain. Thanks to spanky for being you.

Any feedback on the tournament and how it could be improved is appreciated and mostly ignored.

Now, on to tommy. What can I say about tommy? Seriously, what can I say about tommy? He is a poster here. He posted as Zina Bash fan for a few days until his password got reset. He is a White Sox fan. He has grown a cult following on here to the point that I'm worried that if tommy posts about a comet coming to take us all away that we'll never see rpb again. His most redeeming quality seems to be that his victory in here has really triggered Caller Bob. To those of you who think that the board is in trouble because tommy is now the best poster, don't forget we survived Furious Styles winning the title too.

Now is the part where I am supposed to say nice things about tommy after his light roasting to make it seem like what I just said was just some gentle ribbing instead of a complete takedown of him as a poster and a person.

With that said, let's raise a toast to the best poster on the site, tommy?

I now invite anyone who wants to join in on "honoring" tommy to do so, and a special invitation to second place finisher FavreFan and of course tommy to give his own speech.

See you next year, if the board survives this.

Promise?

Wait...tommy won? When did this happen? More importantly, how did this happen? I think tommy is a teacher of some sort...I might have read that. I don't remember. Nor do I care. But, if it's true, I worry about our future. In times like these, I'm reminded of the words of Stuart Mackenzie:

Quote:
Well it's a well-known fact, sonny-jim, that there's a secret society of the 5 wealthiest people in the world, known as The Pentavirate, who run everything in the world including the newspapers, and meet tri-annually in a secret country mansion in Colorado known as The Meadows. (So who's in this Pentavirate?) The Queen, the Vatican, the Gettys, the Rothschilds...and Colonel Sanders before he went tits up! Ooh I hated the Colonel, with his wee beady eyes and that smug look on his face! Ohh you're gonna buy my chicken! Ooh! (Dad, how can you hate the Colonel?) Because he puts an addictive chemical in his chicken that makes you crave it fortnightly, smart ass!


Does this mean tommy has replaced The Colonel in the Pentavirate? Oh well...at least it wasn't The Hawk.

Whatever.

Tommy hasn’t posted in a week...Has the notoriety has gone to his head or did FF pay Seacrest to silence him? Hmmm

Im not saying Tommy is typical South side white (sox fan) trash, but there is a 94% chance his dad is a racist cop and he's been thrown out of Bourbon street on multiple occassions.

I feel like somebody should write something in Latin. I don't speak Latin, so here's a bunch of made-up words:

Avanecti du dictum, Tommy. Rectafavre cum selectum. Amen.

If tommy’s dead, and that seems likely at this point, I guess I’m the champion.

I guess that it won't be at Mt. Carmel then. Or at least half of it.

tommy's in very important meetings with Theo and Jed and simply cannot be disturbed, even to speak about his award.

Dinner will be pizza puffs from the cafeteria and some generic Funyuns from the vending machine.

I talked to tommy earlier this week on the discord. He said to extend his thanks for everyone that voted for him, but he forgot his password on this site so he can't log on. Personally, I congratulate him on the ultimate Cinderella story -- his name will be carved in the CFMB Stone Wall Of Fame and nobody can take that away from him, even if he does forget his password.

tommy is fine. He asked me to tell you all that a dinner is appreciated but not necessary.

He's having lobster at Kenny Williams' home.
