Okay, so I don't have anything prepared for this, but this is the part where I dish out the thank yous! Expect some stream of thought garbage.  The first people I need to thank are my amazing team of cohosts, all of whom I'm lucky to have had involved. Everyone did a great job sharing their experience and knowledge with me, and I could not have done this without your support. Sandbag, the way you were able to teach me to use GIMP in a matter of hours was incredible, and your work with the Attack Cards, challenges and the merge/finalist avatars was invaluable. You brought so many brilliant ideas to the table and let everyone hit you over and over. Champion! Tabuu, having you on hand to update spreadsheets and threads when I never asked you to was so handy, and you helped me to refine the challenges so much from your testing. I wish I could write blogs as engaging to read as yours! Crazy Hand, you weren't able to be around as much, but this format could not have happened without you to bounce ideas off of. Your trivia and Twenty Levels work was much appreciated! Master Hand, you taught me almost everything I know about hosting ORGs before this, and I wouldn't have been able to pull this off without the faith you put in me in helping with the Australian Survivor ORGs. I could detail countless ways you've helped me, but we don't have all night. Thanks for pulling me out of a few jams. Lastly, Dharkon and Galleom were around to chat to me whenever I needed their insight on something or a light-hearted chat to destress, and that was helpful as well. I'd also like to thank all of you for playing and lurking! Hosting a game is a stressful endeavour, but seeing you all enjoy yourselves and commit to the experience makes it all worthwhile. I'll be mentioning you all individually shortly. I'll get to posting reveals now, I promise. I'll start with the lurkers in my next post. |

So, like, do we have to be seated in boot order for this? Dark Pit keeps trying to hold my hand. Amongst other things...

Okay, so the lurkers were: Alexis - Chain Chomp Kat - Nintendog Harry - Waluigi Danielle - Midna shadow0knight - Yuri Jo - Jeff Vamaar - Riki I don't have the names on hand for the Ausvivor people, sorry! Special mentions must go to Nintendog for giving a few of the challenges a crack, and Riki, who was literally everything a host could ever ask for in a lurker. Seeing your thoughts on everything was incredible, and I hope the cast directs themselves to the Riki Ranking thread in Lurkers when I open the board up to appreciate your work. |

We will NEVER forgive Isabelle for being active for 12 minutes and stopping us from letting Riki play as a result  |

Amazing game, Sak! You should be so proud here, was an awesome game and for a first time host, WOWZA! Incredibly polished and smooth. Thanks to you and the whole team for pulling it off!
The twist on the format with the stages and the cards was clearly very well thought out, and made for a small change on paper but one with big implications! LOVE that twist, keep it up for season two (HA! - just too much smash content!)
Incredibly proud to be ya first winner! Can't believe it! And all the players should be ashamed they actually let CAPTAIN FALCON win a smash bros org! AYOOOO!
