Following on from this thread to find the greatest ever match for a GLN article, I've narrowed the field to these fine ten. I'll leave the poll open for a week, so there is plenty of time to watch replays at your leisure if you wish, and if you can get it to work, I recommend the great replayer. Happy voting!

The ten to choose from are;

Krautrock 0 - 1 Sanguine Savants

My First and My Last 4 – 2 For the Grace of Wood D.M.U

You Can Hate Me Now 2 – 2 Barak Var Knucklebreakers

Motley Horde 1 – 2 Rotten Flesh Is Our Ecstasy

Disgruntled Evangelists 3 – 1 Baffers Bonkers

Lavino Fighting Hellfishes 3 – 0 Springfield Brewing Company

Divinity 1 – 1 Blessed Assassins

Sanguine Savants 3 – 1 Blood Red Dragons

Skruffneks 5 – 2 Wild Mares

<b><u>Macavity 10 – 10 Pie</u></b>

And just so you know, if / when Mac 10 - 10 Pie wins, I'll take whatever comes second. Couldn't run a poll without the option, though!

You have to take the winning poll and do a GLT article on that for me Smile

I was trying to come up with decent proposals for GLN articles in my dinner hour, and thought it might be neat to do a retrospective look at the greatest match to have been played on the site. The article could speak to the coaches involved, we could have a couple of good coaches discuss the main turning points, strategies etc.

nooo i missed that thread!

This game is by far my favourite, where my good friend Dave pulled back a tie from 4-1 in turn 10, and almost won!

Wow - that really does look like a good one!

It's never too late to post other great games for people to enjoy - who knows, if the first article works out ok, 'Great matches' is probably a GLN theme that wouldn't get old fast. We were always going to miss some on the first sweep anyway. Smile

Interresting pool. But you are desesperatly missing some fantastic games. Also the one you selected won't be the Xth best game for ever. In fact, many of the ones you choosed, aren't worth it. Look, most of the participants only played 100 combined matchs.

On a side note, i voted for Ecstasy. You can't beat a skaven game, this is the one with the most played games, this is the best of the ones you mentionned.

I'm sure I am - not everyone was going to see the initial thread, but that's just the way it goes. I think there is always room for another sweep of this topic down the road.

Lol, I'm not sure how you can even think that any game could outstrip the ongoing conflict that is Macavity vs Pie.

I'm sure the article on whatever game wins (or comes second!) could only benifit from your take on things! Laughing
