Paid Members Fatty Facesitter Posted January 29, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted January 29, 2012 Ok, so we've had both the entries in and now it's your turn to potentially have a say. Â The winner will be crowned thus: The four panelists will cast their vote, and here in this thread you'll cast a public one. The public decision and the judges will ultimately determine the winner. Voting is open to ALL UKFF'ers, whether they were in the Booking Cup or not. Â Here are the respective posts: Â NEWM's Entry: http://ukff.com/index.php?s=&showtopic...t&p=2514672 vince russo's entry: http://ukff.com/index.php?s=&showtopic...t&p=2521185 Â You have until the middle of next week to vote in the poll, basically. Â In the mean time, I'm also going to be handing out an award for best overall post out of all the rounds, so throw me a couple of ideas as to who you thought excelled at whatever point in the competition.

Dr.PeterVenkman Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Voted for NEWM, I know it's fantasy booking but vince russo's relied on The Rock pretty much being a full time member of the roster and besides that, NEWM's blow off match sounded quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I don't like either of them. NEWM's has about a million old wrestlers I've no interest in seeing, and russo's is the Millionaire's Club vs New Blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Eddie Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I voted for Russo, though it was very close. Â NEWM's would have played out well as a Raw VS Smackdown match (where everyone is in their prime) but it had too many old-timers in the main match for me. I actually preferred NEWM's build-up over Russo's, but Russo's final match sounded better for not having Dusty, Stevie Ray, Animal, Douglas and the like stinking it up.

spotlightmagnet1 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I went for Vince Russo's mainly because I don't see NEWMs entry being that pratical and thought it would be confusing in places if on screen. Plus Mick Foley was never in war games, I checked. Thanks google. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEWM Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Plus Mick Foley was never in war games, I checked. Thanks google.  Sorry to be a pedant, but the "thanks google" smugness was enough to make me play the cunt as well. So:  WCW @ Jacksonville, FL - Coliseum - August 22, 1991 (4,500 paid) Sting, El Gigante, the Yellow Dog, & Barry Windham defeated Arn Anderson, Cactus Jack, Kevin Sullivan, & the One Man Gang in Wargames at 17:55 when Gigante made Sullivan submit to the claw  Thanks historyofwwe.com and Google. Apologies to everybody else for the intrusion to the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spotlightmagnet1 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Betrayed! Â Sorry but I still stand by my first point though, it read to me as being quite convoluted. That's why I had to go with Russo's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forrest Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I preferred NEWM's simply because of the detail of the match. I was let down when I got to Russo's match and found it to be a few throw away lines to round things off, but NEWM's had me hooked. If Russo had did a full match write-up, it would be bawhair-close.

vince russo Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 to be honest Forrest, before i read the oppositions i had planned on doing an Evolution reunion type thing, but when i read NEWMs he had used Evolution so tbh it threw me off my game hence the short write up etc. fair play though, i have enjoyed the whole competition immensely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members mim731 Posted February 1, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 1, 2012 Whoever wins, I think this whole things has been a really big success. I certainly enjoyed it loads, and would be very interested in taking part if another fantasy booking cup is run. Big hats off to Nick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Fatty Facesitter Posted February 4, 2012 Author Paid Members Share Posted February 4, 2012 WE HAVE A WINNER!!! Â First of all, a big thanks once again to everyone who took part and/or read the main thread. It's greatly appreciated and I hope you all had fun trawling through it. Â Both of the final entries were brilliant IMHO. I was a bit skeptical about how the Wargames concept would ultimately play out, but I think it worked well enough in the end. Â As you know, the winner will receive a trophy through the post. I'm no dab hand at photoshop but if the winner wants a custom banner made or something I'll chase it up for them. Â With that being said, I will now reveal the winner and later, the judging panel. The overall vote in this poll, won by NEWM, counts as only ONE vote. There are four other votes to consider, making up a total of five overall. Â So, without further ado. Â The 2011/12 UKFF Fantasy Booking Cup Winner is....... Â Â Â NEWM Â Take a bow, son. My thanks to vince russo, who submitted a cracking entry of his own, and a truly worthy runner up. Â One more time, thanks again y'all. Will revela the judges in a bit, unless they go ahead and reveal themselves first. I'll also add some f their quotes through the rounds. In the mean time, NEWM, may the ten sacred virgins shower you with lotus blossom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
