Thanks to competitors and spectators at yesterday's Trig Brother, an event slightly marred by our underestimating i. how long the various tasks would take ii. how drunk the Lex was. It devolved into a bit of a shambles but there were plenty of highlights before that - [livejournal.com profile] dubdobdee's romance with a rabbit, the 99 Problems for Jay-Z, Filthy Enid, and Al's eye-popping diagnosis of the evils of modern music (which has been preserved on video).

In the end [livejournal.com profile] catsgomiaow emerged as a deserving winner, with Al second and Jill third following the Lex's disqualification (does Jill have an LJ?).

Afterwards a lot of us went to karaoke at the One Tun - an underattended event with a very friendly (& tolerant) compere and an excellent song selection so I'm sure we'll go again. (There, look, pop content).

Yes we basically palmed you off on Gareth right at the end and went back inside to finish off the game. This was after you wandered round in circles for a while in the road outside the Carpenters Arms, so Al and I had to grab you by both arms and frogmarch you, struggling, in the direction of the Fitzroy.

If it helps, you were probably saved from a sound beating in the final. Your rendition of Ebeneezer Goode was very good though.

I had a very good time, to be honest the wheels only really came off when we were back in the Fitzroy. That said, the Carpenters Arms was far too innocent a pub for that late in the crawl. It looked like the front room of a genteel guest house in Eastbourne.

OK so the official line is that I would have won had it not been for UNFAIR CIRCUMSTANCES then! ROBBED.

If by 'winning' you mean 'getting zero votes' then yes.

And if by "unfair circumstances" you mean "drinking so much that you were literally unable to stand" then also yes!
