Thanks, Colin - it's nice to get a vote even though I clearly don't deserve to be in the last eight with all these big hitters. Too many major names got knocked out because of unlucky draws; I got an easy ride for the first few rounds.

Though if I recall correctly, the last time we did this I also got knocked out by FSC - think it was a round earlier, however, so I still consider this a victory...


It was in Round 4 last time. i just looked it up.

Quote: ApologeticSquirrel
Quote: Topper
One of my favourite producers is a guy named Tipper, which I thought was a really cool name and as I didn't want to just steal it I changed the 'i' to an 'o' and somehow came out with Topper.

And that's the rather boring end to that mystery...


But what was your very old email address about? Tipperad?

Tipper, obv. Ad? Wat?


tipper@yahoo.co.uk was taken so I had to add a couple of letters...A = Alex, D = David (my middle name)

By the way, mates, did everyone here how Farmer Jack got his name? Well, being a racist, Martin decided to become a farmer and after 2/3 years farming loyalty and rainbows on his farm in Kingstonian, he lost his sanity in a combine harvester accident one Wednesday evening. Every day since he referred to himself as Farmer Jacques because obviously, he assumed himself to be French but didn't know the French for Farmer. His mother, Shirley Bassey corrected him and insisted he changed the Jacques to Jack and when he invented the computer in 1997 he started writing e-mails to randow e-mail addresses until he eventually got on Mega-zine using that alias. Ta da.
I hope some day, for some reason, David Duchovny is investigated by the FBI. Because that would make a great story.

Your whole face is Greek, then it cried.

That's quite a strange dream, but I think it means I should move to the coast, that's definitely the underlying message.

i wasn't sure what you meant by B52 stylee, then i realised that it was a reference to Love Shack (i think). But i'm honoured that Alice has dreamt about me again.

Tops. Was this the same final as last time? Can we do a Eurovision type poll as well maybe? This whole knock out thing seems rather arbitary.

But if we reform into a more representative voting system, that leaves room for fringe 'Ziners like Psycho Princess and Spiky Stuy to get further into the competition. You should know that people are morons that can't be trusted to think for themselves.

Seeing as there is no Zine now, there's not really much chance for someone other than Alex to win this if it's done next year!
Can't we just make him Grand High Emperor and have done with it?


There will always be a Zine, even though there isn't.

Also, there probably won't be a project next year as it isn't an annual thing.
