Wow, interesting lineup. Professional players, street RPS sharks, seen-it-all-before veterans, up-and-coming youngsters... a lot of talent here, but in terms of the person who made the most significant and memorable contributions to the Bullboard in 2007 I think the winner is clear.

I rather shamelessly voted for just myself in order to obtain the prize, before realising that such low acts are usually reserved for the likes of custardchuk. I'm still trying to work out how to solve the situation...

Cheers,

One thing's for sure, and that is that Franklin T is one nasty piece of work. I have no idea why he has three votes already. In honour of how much I dislike him, I have voted for every listed player apart from him. Interestingly, this seems to solve his problem of regretting voting for himself in the above post. As much as I hate helping the little bugger, my will to increase everyone's vote bar his outweighs this hatred.

By the way, this is neither Max nor Franklin T writing from this account. I've been lurking here for a while, but couldn't be bothered making a new account. Instead, due to my immense skill, I found it far easier just to hack this one. That said, don't limit log-in access to the compromised account, as I have done what I set out to do and will no longer take advantage of this username.

Only one person I know who would call someone "the little bugger."

Was damage sports the one who I nearly traded my sandwich to for their domain name?

Also, while there are several other notable RPS players/bullboarders on this list I feel I must keep my allegiance to the Philadelphia RPS participants.

If not for that I would probably rank Scissorsista first, as she's the only one on that list who's bought me a cheeseburger, some beer and let me crash in a hotel room for a night.  That'll get you a long way in my book.  Franklint hasn't even attempted to offer 1 out of the 3.

Cogg Willoughby is in no way a new bullboarder in 2007.  I'm not sure why Rosh has included this as I'm pretty sure he predates my contributions on the old board.  He may have even won a WSPOCARPS at some point.

Aww, thanks, you guys. This means a lot. And I'm not even joking. Which perhaps isn't a good thing.

I only won it by one vote in any case, so thanks to the other nominees, as well as the voters. Kudos to Master Roshambollah for creating the poll.

I shall strive to take my RPS strategy to a new level in order to fulfil my title of Best New Bull Boarder of 2007 (there's one for the signature).

Big <3 all around. Throw well!

Cheers,
Franklint

Hmmmm...kudos indeed. I smell a rat. Likely, as part of rosh's "RPS Journeyman" pay-as-you-go kit that he sells, he likely promised as part of his fee that he guarantees you credibility within the RPS community.

All he needs do is call in a few 'favours' within the community suddenly Frankilt earns a new title as bullboard of the year.

And to think such underhanded games are being played on WRPSS servers...James would flip.

Note: I still voted for you Franky, so I am not saying that you didn't deserrve it.

I think you all, more so than I, have had your fair share of controversy. Such is the nature of the sport.

The contract I signed to take on the Journeyman program had about half a dozen pages of legalese in tiny writing. Chances are there was something in there about creating some form of positive reputation for the student. I wouldn't know - I didn't read it. Expect me to be working as a sex slave in Papua New Guinea before the year is out, after Rosh comes to collect "the rest" of the payment.

Also suspicious is my appearance in Rosh's online "Which Professional RPS Player Are You?" quiz, soon after being given the Best New Bull Boarder '07 title. Maybe you're right, Jef, but hey, it's me who's suddenly gaining momentum in the community through help from my ex-Master, so I ain't complaining.
