Congratulations,

vane_nt! That was a prime specimen of a start-to-finish victory, that was!

Thank you so much,

pale_moonlite! For the lovely congrats, of course, but first and foremost for having had the idea for this, setting up this community virtually overnight, running it, and adding so much extra fun to the World Cup! (And oh, the endless possibilities for bad puns at the Tetleys.) It was great, and I hope we'll all be back for 2011 *points at icon*.

Thank you,

winterwitch for the great banners! And for a non-fan, you sure got an impressive number of guesses right.

	Thank you! blushes Congratulations to you too! ^__^ It was great, and I hope we'll all be back for 2011 points at icon. This is probably a silly question, but my brain isn't helping me now: what's going to happen in 2011? Any lovely event for us to bet on again? When??? Where??? I want more! addicted (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread)

	kills herself resurrects All I can say in my defense is that the press here gives little to no attention to women's football, unfortunately. So I'm rarely up to date in this case. T____T (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	It was a pleasure to run this together with you. Honestly, I don't know what I'd have done without your input. I'm looking forward to 2011! (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

I honestly never thought I'd win this one. I can only credit it to living in a contry where people keep on talking about football most of the time, so you end up learning something even if you strongly prefer others sports over it (which I do). ^^UU Or maybe I was just lucky. ^^UUU

Congratulations to Tetley and to all of the participants! And congratulations to you, Pale, for the great job done in this community! *__*

Congratulations to

vane_nt for the most correct predictions and

tetleythesecond for the Runner-up! *yay*
And thank you very much for hosting and organising all this,

pale_moonlite and

tetleythesecond! It was really much fun and for me personally the first time I did not only something related to football, but something I truly enjoyed. (My husband still comments every odd day "The mind boggles. Imagine you asking about football.")
I'm looking forward to the writing as well. And to next year's event, too. I suppose it will help when the traffic jam and other side effects of the local Quidditch football stadium start... *g*

	Ridiculously late - but thank you so much for running this. I've never followed football more eagerly. You made this an excellent (and very well-run) party for all of us. (Reply to this) (Thread)
