Many thanks to BigBen, he bought this trophy and sent it to me.

As current champion, I will do the same with 2012 winner, as I stated in other threads.

Very nice!
Great move by BigBen, and a nice tradition that the winner (yourself) will be the next winner the trophy.
Of course, if you win again... that would be funny.

lol

thank you very much. Since the trophy was a present, making some good pictures was the less I could do...

It seems it would be more nice if you have a picture and you are holding it as most champions do. I'm pretty sure Turbo will be happy to see you :red:

lol
let's see what can I do...

If he wins again, then perhaps people could consider a change in the tradition: there is one trophy, which has a large area for future engraving, and the trophy is transferred from winner to winner, each time having the new winner's name engraved.  Of course, in this situation, the whereabouts of the current winner would need to be known throughout the cycle...
Parent - By Wrath of the Titans (****) [sa] Date 2012-03-11 12:21
Good suggestion, but it should be two trophy and the one is a replica so the current and old champions will have the trophies with them.

>the trophy is transferred from winner to winner, each time having the new winner's name engraved.


Hi,
    One problem with this is the worlds postal services ..... Certain countries of the world nothing arrives lol .... I was in Kerala (India) and posted a letter from the hotel to a friends home in Tamil Nadu which was not that far even in mileage terms but no luck. Many of the South American countries and especially Mexico are a no no ... As for Europe it seems Italy is a problem

If you check with Amazon and Ebay you see people who will not send goods to these countries and many others. We send packages all round the world from our shop and you learn this stuff lol :lol:

Well, in that case, imagine how special it would be if the previous winner hand-delivered it to the next winner! :grin:

Hmm, this is a pretty good book-exit.  It looks...winning.  100% with 0% draws.
