I was thinking of creating a volley's only thread (like that US vs UK battle). There's too many pages of convos here to go looking for the volleys.

Why not just do that with all the battles?
because it's not normally necessary.
Agreed. This would be the case (of creating another thread for volleys) if a group of people are involved. :D Well, let's continue with the volleys.
this is great work but...
when are you going to finish this one guys? and moreover, who's judging it?
looking forward to a USA vs. Europe Mega-Battle:D ... just as in the Ryder Cup (golf).
Sorry for starting the blabbing, but I felt it was something that needed addrssing right away.
Now, anyone know who is up? ANd since you are all complaining about talking, why don't you stop? :D
not a big fan of this one but i think im up, anyway.

That's a bit to bright for me. I saw where you were going with it, but it just never reached its destination.
Better than I can do, though.
Love the eagle Ian ;)
thanks, wouldve been better if the photo didnt come out so blurry (i was walking at the time :/)
The Brits are judging it....:) You poms not gonna vote for us because we whopped your arse in cricket :pQuote:

How many more volleys until the actual judging? I have a feeling that it's bvgroote's volley (probably the last) :confused:
is it my volley?
Go! Even if it's not your turn just go......The tension is building :)
ouch. Don't ask hehe. Low quality so i could attach it.

Sweet volley bv :mrpimp:
Tell me, is this over?
That's nice Bvgroote a bit muddled up though :D
Wow! You guys are good with photoshop :) I'm a graphic designer for quite a large company but this is awesome :D
It's all over!!
Well, Brits, it's up to you. Who is the winner?
Can I cast a vote? Methinks America won this battle....nicer style, cleaner colors. Australia did some amazing volleys but ultimatly it has to be America.
Are you British? I hope so :)
From what I can tell from my cutlery inspired battle with the gentleman in question, he must be an Aussie... :cow:
I'm going to go with the damned Yankees, as much as it pains me to do so... but it was very close
*bump
Still waiting for ANY non-US/AUS judges. Interest in this battle must have decreased or something since it's slowly going down to page 2.
Volleys - http://webmonkey.ath.cx/usavsaus.html
time to get the judges in... I'll see what I can do.
Swampy and I are being put up free of charge at Gerbick mansions in order to make our unbiased decision, expect to hear from the judging panel in next to no time :p
(SaintB, the link you posted to the volleys doesn't seem to work. Could someone post a working url please :))
It's not working now... My server was down due to a power outage today and it's not going back up for some reason.
ok, from wading through this thread I hasve tentatively worked out that there were 7 volleys per team plus a random volley by halfshark which I haven't counted.
I have yet to see webmonkeys 2nd volley due to the server being down.
I marked each of the peices out of three (harsh I know but it makes it less ambiguos - good , bad or ugly !)
I will wait until webmonkeys site is up and then consult with my erstwhile colleague james.
I got it back up.
Righty:
The winners!!
After much deliberation between Swampy and myself (well 3 PM's anyway) the esteemed judges have reached their final decision......
Both teams battled well and the volleys were excellent with no team producing a knockout, the judges had to go to points after a close match and the winner by the narrowest margin is:
U.S.A
It was an entertaining match and a very close call so great work everyone :)
Swampy scored it 16 to 14 in favour of the US and I marked it 51 to 50 (out of 70) in favour of the US.
Great work, looking forward to the next intercontinental title matchup. I assume the US will be defending their title ;)
yep there were some good ones but a couple where I just didn't get the connection or see the elements carried over. overall good stuff. I amd looking forward to getting my arse kicked in the mods v members battle.
yipee for USA!
yeah, I started out this battle... on the winning team nonetheless :p
hey, it was the team that won though!
but to all the participants... it was fun, all the entries were cool, and it was fun battling alongside the USA team and against the cool as hell AUS team.
maybe I won't leave in the middle of the battle next time?
:domo:
Congrates to the USA team:D!!
I think that's what gave your team the advantage ;)Quote:

Have you been taking classes on Rome or something? IT loses it's effect after some time....
following me around will get you nowhere.
Of course not. You go no where. It is by chance I see you type et tu too many times.
II is enough for me.
If you use it I more time, I will have to beat you with a cow prod XXI times.
et tu Virgo?
:p
