| i agree though the most fun was making poor derek add endlessly to the rules ... and i still think and have evidence that whats his name was PM and it should have been included.... yep still holding a grudge on that one
on another note secret Santa (yes i am posting in the wrong area) brian suggested if we went to Belgium bar sometime after Christmas we could swap secret Santa presents there?
|
| I didn't like Vana but I agree, her idea had the most potential I think. Hey ho. Quite an exciting year I think - the fantasy apprentice thing was definitely a fun thing to do. |
| i feel oddly cheated, vana (who is a bit shouty) had the better idea,. presentation etc, admittedly god knows how it would make money (especially with only three people in the whole wide world being single) but it just felt like such a cop out as though he was taking the dull easy win, i mean plumbing its not exactly new is it.....
and i would like to say that most of the business plans sucked..... karrrrrrrin made the best comment to gary 'a bit like Skype' he he |
| Whoo! Yeah! {air punch} Get in!
I'd like to thank the academy, my producer and everyone involved in this project - I couldn't have done it without you. It was an honour and a privilege playing against you.
{bursts into tears whilst accepting my prize}
Wait.....where's my prize? |
| You did it ....... Elly, our winner !!!!!
Congratulations on winning this highly prestigious award :) |
| AAaaaaaaaaah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah |
| So we're effectively beta testers for this. We should at least get a lifetime subscription to the Attica Fantasy Apprentice service including free upgrades and expansion packs, and possible a bit of free merchandise thrown in as a courtesy gesture. |
| ...and the weird thing is, I was nearly going to pick Joseph a while ago but I thought "God, he looks such a pillock though with that stupid moustache and quiff, and his intro interview on the website is excruciating".
It'll be very funny if I accidentally win.
|
| If substitutes are NOT allowed (and don't think they should be for the final) the scores are quite interesting:
If Vana wins, Brian wins
If Joseph wins, Elly wins
And yes, that was a pretty darned good call dropping Richard! He was found out in the end :)
And none of us has Joseph in our team - are we a tad snobbish? |
| Its a thankless task, but it has made it mugh more entertaining than just watching the program... And i may be a tad competitive... |
| I should win outright for dropping richard at the perfect time. O , and how many pints did i get for that- i think u can guess |
| Oh yes, I'm so so so happpyyyyyyy ............ endless joy |
| I agree - the only way to really punish us losers is *not* to allow us a substitute for next week. |
| Bet you're so glad u started 'fun and games' arent u d |
| Hiding behind sofa isnt going to save you..... |
| But thats not fair... Stamps feet, my candidate got through i should at least get more points than someone who's candidate didnt...
|
| Yep: +1 for an appearance.
The penalty would normally be -3 the next week if one picked a substitute.
I know - it's not quite right at this stage of the comp! |
| Im confused why do losers and winners get the same points? Is this political correctness gone mad? |
| This is going to be controversial .......
Can those of us with no-one left choose a sub for the final??
Doesn't seem right somehow. |
| Go richard go...We dont like you |
| Gary is out... Yesssss, he was dull |
| Nooo not joseph i like him, sack gary hes dull |
| So I can now announce the final selections for this week are:
Brian: Vana
Derek: Charleine
Elly: Richard
Mandy: Vana
Matt: Gary |
| I knew I had to do something because Brian is sure to have recorded the telling Sugar sound bite ! |
| We did wonder how you would cope with two team leaders, but i agree with your ruling, unlike the promoted team leader episode...... Which by the way i still think I WAS RIGHT and you were WRONG, not that i hold a grudge or anything.....
Charlene, mad but you have to like her, richard is a sneak and i dont like him at all, which means he will win
I'm dropping gary, i dont like his haircut |
| Software now copes for multiple team leader losers, so the results page is now correct. |
| We are now down to 5 candidates. Our current teams are:
Brian: Richard and Vana
Derek: Charleine
Elly: Richard
Mandy: Vana and Gary
Matt: Gary
... so Brian and Mandy have to drop a member before next week.
For the time being (before they get sacked), Derek, Elly and Matt are lumbered with our surviving team member. |
| OK OK OK - I *know* that there was *no* winning team leader and *2* losing team leaders: it's just that my database model doesn't take that into account at the moment !!! It will do tomorrow.
The scores, however, *are* correct (as is the spreadsheet).
Bear with me ..... it's been very trying this series !! |
| OK about half an hour to go and Derek and Elly can choose a substitute if they want to (but incurring a 3 pt penalty).
After tonight we'll be down to 5 or less candidates, so the teams will then be limited to ONE ..... everyone needs to bear that in mind. |
| And as Mandy says - he's looking like a good pick at the moment |
| Elly - you *could* pick a substitute if you wanted to. We now have 6 left. But that would be a 3 point penalty. Depends whether you trust Richard to win. |
| Thoughtful... My middle name
You know richard might actually win, |
| And Elly: Elle was the losing team leader !! Not "off the cuff" at all. |
| Thank you Mandy ... so thoughtful :)
The scores are now in btw |
| So important i posted twice..... |
| Derek we have saved the eposode so we can rewatch it if you need to rejig your rules.... :-) |
| Derek we have saved the eposode so we can rewatch it if you need to rejig your rules.... :-) |
| Yes it was all over the news so i knew he went but i was expecting him to be fired for being rubbish...
Didnt know about selina but knew she wasnt going to win as she was in every paper whining about how the producers were mean to her and not even appearing on the 'apprentice youve been fired'
she'll be a poor mans katie hopkins |
| Selina was such an irritating cow, I'm really glad she's gone.
More comments later - just doing the scores now. |
| Oi! Elle got a -6 for not making it to the boardroom...that was an off the cuff penalty. Scott should get the same. |
| No no no no no - no retrospective penalties !!!! |
| Even I was bored of her whinging by the end of it.
A bit of a weird episode because there were so many national newspaper spoilers around today, but I was expecting Scott's exit to be a bit more explosive. Surely that should incur an *extra* penalty, for just going "Ah fuck it" and walking off. At least Selina went down spitting and clawing (though I think we have another Katie Hopkins in the making) |
| Oh yes she has been very very vocal.... Still found time to pose in her knickers though |
| ...and boy isn't Selina pissed off (according to half a dozen cheap sleezy newspapers and twitter) |
| that wall was tiny, even jamie could have climbed it without falling off it and i loved them telling the kids not to run when they were all walking really slowly....
Gary is a duffer but then vanja sucks as well and honest to god how did selina win, she's terrible
i want British bake off back i was good at that! |
| {note to self} Make sure the next walk features a 9ft wall to climb, just to keep Mandy in a party mood |
| Climbing a three foot wall is not a party in my books... Selina was just really really lucky, gary is rubbish, vana whines, i dont like either of my candidates... But i am oddly warming towards brett... |
| I've decided I *want* Charleine to be fired. Far better to be fired than being a losing team leader at this stage, and it's not long before we have to drop down to a single member team anyway.
And we must have another multi-firing at some point, don't we, to get down to 4 for the last episode. |
| ...That's it Selina, you ignore all those big meanies who call you a miserable arsey cow. We both know that in Fantasy Apprentice you're actually the highest scoring candidate to date.... |
| I *think* i'm happy as well ..... but Charleine might be fired yet |
| {hears who the PMs are this episode} Shiiiiiit, I'm in for a bad week, I can just feel it. |
| Well finally managed to watch it....scott has changed personality this week, he used to be quite nice, wet but nice, and then he turns all nasty...
It was a lucky choice to drop him and i only did it because gary hadnt been teanpm leader i did it
And doesnt vanya hate selina..... |
| I keep forgetting Selina has TL'd already. I never saw that episode.
Yeah, losing a duffer at the right moment could give someone the win. I almost wanted Brett to go, but then I don't "know" who's going to win yet, so it would have been too early. |
| Selina is definitely on a knife edge, but if you look at her track record, she's done pretty well. The fact that everyone seems to hate her is neither here nor there 'cos they all hate each other !!
Mandy certainly made the right choice .... hurumph
ps it appears you can get free https these days eg http://www.startssl.com/?app=1, so I'll investigate that. |
| The camera loves pointing at Selina for some reason. She can't help being an arsey cow, but I still don't see that she's any better or worse than the rest.
...that said, I am contemplating her replacement just in case. But knowing my luck, I'll drop another one just as we hit the threshold for losing another team member. |
| Well Mandy certainly dropped the right bloke. 12 point difference!
Sam going was no surprise. Nice bit of tension waiting to see if there'd be a second. Next week has got to see Selina picking up or losing points. |
| What a week for Mandy and Matt !
Matt - you've maintained your record of positive scores every week.
Mandy - great week for you and you're now well in contention.
Dreadful week for me :( |
| So who does everyone think will be the three team leaders this week?
Gary and Selina are due up, Who else? |
