After 9 months, 4 days, 18 hours and 3 minutes we have come to the end of our grand decathlon. To paraphrase King Gustav of Sweden at the inaugural Olympic decathlon, our goal was to find the greatest athlete in the world. While the results are really no indicator of athletic prowess, we sure did find some good board gamers and a whole bunch of fair and sporting play.
For the last time, and without further ado, here is the final standings.
So a hearty congratulations to myself for taking the top spot! I really do wish it was someone else so I could wax hyperbolic about their achievement. I think it would be somewhat conceited to say those things about myself. That being said, I am secretly very pleased with the result given the intense challenge of the competition.
Our final podium:
Snotty128
@SleepingGiant
@irishdomer08
(I can’t help but feel those medals should be a bit bigger and more dramatic)
I’d also like to commend our 4th place finishers. @Hardco, @JammaTal and @Baelnor. It’s a credit to how tight the competition was when the final result was that close.
