In dat geval blijft The Bitter End gewoon de winnaar.
Als er nog meer mensen verkeerd gestemd hebben en ontevreden zijn over de uitslag, dan hadden ze dat maar moeten melden, net als dix. Of ze hadden gewoon beter moeten lezen.

Tijd voor Iron Maiden!

De cruciale vraag is: hoe laat kwam GrafGantz van zijn werk thuis...
Was dat tussen 17:34 en 18:04 ? Of juist ná 18:29 ??
Vragen, vragen, en het blijft knagen...

Om 18:25, maar wel met boodschappen die opgeruimd moesten worden en in een net pak waar ik me ook nog van wilde verlossen, dus voor 18:30 had ik sowieso niet kunnen stemmen .

Een bitter einde van een hele goeie placebo k.o.

Vooruit, ik kom nog één keer terug op de uitslag van de Placebo K.O. Omdat een verkeerde uitslag vroeg of laat aan me zal gaan knagen heb ik alle stemmen na de grote wisseltruc persoonlijk gecheckt. Bijna iedereen bleek gewoon goed gestemd te hebben, behalve dix en ArthurDZ. Dat betekent dat er twee stemmen van The Bitter End naar Pure Morning gaan en dat de eindstand dus niet 10-8, maar 8-10 is.

Conclusie: Pure Morning is de echte winnaar van dit spel en gaat dus ook zo de boeken in.

Nummers nomineren? Dat is in dit spel toch niet van toepassing daar zijn toch andere spellen voor?

Nu weet ik niks van Iron Maiden maar wat ik wel weet is dat vigil het bij het juiste eind heeft hier.

Dat maakt toch niets uit? Uiteindelijk komen we toch aan K.O. toe. Ik kan me zelfs herinneren dat er hier ooit zelfs eens met ladders gewerkt is geweest in de eerste ronde.

Ik begin toch wat te twijfelen nu...

Die twijfel deel ik

Volgens mij hebben we genoeg nummers, hoewel de animo (nog) niet zo groot is.
