I got nothing "planned", Sir Bazz-o-Matic; it just seems like my water shots do better than any of the rest.

Meet the contestants:

CHRISTCHURCH DIVISION

Kiwiness: Gary registered in 2002 and is now serving a second tour of duty in the SC. Clearly a heavyweight, he carries 20 ribbons with another 18 Top 10 finishes. This translates to an unheard of Top 10 finish 58% of the time he enters. Gary is primarily known for his use of models and the ability to set up a prop studio shot. Will the rest of the division have enough to bring this kiwi down?

Cheekymunky: Mark is another oldtimer, having registered in 2003. King Kong with a bikini, this munky has 2 ribbons along with another 4 Top 10 finishes. Mark has the ability to produce that ﾃ｢廛PC lookﾃ｢ in spades. He has some stiff competition in the first round, but this munky thinks heﾃ｢冱 up to the task.

Judi: Judi registered in 2004 and owns 3 ribbons and another Top 10 finish. Not afraid to show a little skin, Judi may possess some ﾃ｢彗ssetsﾃ｢ other Christchurch Division entrants lack. Judi will certainly not be caught lying down in the first round (or perhaps she will). Her skill may truly shine, however, in her processed skyskapes.

Bear Music: Not your ordinary Bear, Robert has entered the most challenges of all League of Death members (134) even though he is the ﾃ｢從ewestﾃ｢ member in this group of four. Owning one ribbon (while being robbed of a second due to a technical glitch) and another five Top 10 finishes, Robert will be no slouch. His fortes are seascapes and landscapes. If the next few weeks have favorable weather, Bear may go far.

First round matches are:

Kiwiness vs. Cheekymunky

and

Judi vs. Bear Music

He's not really the "newest" SC member, since he was an early SC who went on hiatus and then returned to the fold.

you guys really crack me up...
 03/22/2006 10:13:59 PM · #37
I guess I was wrong. I think Achoo's introduction just had me confused. Either that or it's just been a long day ;)

NO, he's just announcing us division by division; we all start at the same time.

Haitiuses. Not to be confused with "Halitosis"

that would not be in the spirit of the challenge now would it? isn't this just a "breathe" of fresh air?

Man, Its just my luck that it'll be a Nude challenge! I really hope its not going to be a 'people' challenge as I suck at them (and all my friends are ugly...), especially as kiwiness seems to excel at them and seems to have hot & cold running women on tap - No Fair!

its true! but to be fair I'm must be a bit of a Swamp-donkey - The FIRST time I've shown my face is with the 2-sec challenge and it went down to 4.8! I'm gonna stay behind the camera in future ;)
