    This has been a great year for forum battling. This year we saw only three no-shows, which is the lowest in recorded history.

    This year we have seen live and animated videos, games, songs, comics, writings, baked goods, puppets, websites, flash devices, internet spanning mysteries, endless spoiler tags, edits and crwths.

    This was the year that Zonugal appeared. It was the year of high-score chasing, ultra-violence and SPIDER-MAN. This was the year that a writer made it to the quarter-finals. Most importantly, this was the year that Raneados finally won it all. The tradition of there being a new winner every year has been upheld. After so much pain and struggle, Raneados finally gets to experience the incredible power of the Prize.

    Congratulations to Raneados and congratulations to all participants.

    Thank you to Larlar for putting this all together.

    Special thanks to Campion for the bracket arting.

    And a super-special thanks to Asimperson for being the Forum Battle Historian.

    Every time I read that quote from ChicoBlue and the sentence on me it just makes me feel like I entered from another plane. That I am composed of a mystical magic beyond the realms of thought.

    I just appeared and thus was.

    Bad-Beat, is it bad

    If you have read the book, it is the worst.

    I've seen the film, is the book any good?

    You might make him explode D:

    The movie is okay if you haven't read the book, largely because of Will Smith.

    The ending is lame, though.

    FORUM BATTLE RECAP
    Since the thread is now on its last legs, I'd figure I'd do a rundown of my favorite battles from this year. Don't, uh, watch some of these at work.
    ROUND ONE
    This choas all got started back on May 27, with a strong entry from the reigning champion, DE?AD, introducing us to DE!AD:
    FB2Round1.png
    Unfortunately, his opponent, Zombies Tossed My Salad! no-showed because he was hanging out with HIS GIRLFRIEND so DE?AD advanced unopposed.

    A couple days later, GSM showed up in full force, not giving Platypus Beirut much of a chance:
    Zonugal introduced himself, his mustache, and his crotch, to the world with perhaps one of the best, yet most terrifying, entries of the round:
    Yet, thanks to Cowardly, it wasn't the creepiest entry of round 1: http://rateofinjury.com/cowudley/kusu.html

    Fletcher's battle against Dr. Funkenstein is probably one of my favorites of the entire tournament:
    We wrap up with Berk and ChicoBlue, because, well, just watch: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=120390

    Honorable mentions
    :
    "Does that make me racist?"
    You'll make it out of the first round some day, Natek... some day...
    The first ever team battle, and my first ever cameo!
    [vidurl=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kI9t4SWbv8]YOU'LL WISH CINEMA HAD NEVER BEEN INVENTED[/vidurl]
    ROUND TWO

    We kicked off with Ten vs. DE?AD. This was the round where Ten decided just go all-out, crafting addictive flash video games with groovy soundtracks. Personally, I greatly enjoyed the entry of the former champ as well: It was not to be for the former champ. Would Ten uphold tradition and win the whole thing?

    GSM and Marshmallow put in what I am pretty sure was the first game vs. game battle ever: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=120777

    I'm pretty sure that by the time he was done Nogs actually became J. Jonah Jameson:
    Spectre-X brought the pretty arts as usual, but Edcrab went with a radical and multiple-choice change-of-plan: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?p=15234194#post15234194

    While Qorzm brought the rhymes, Zonugal brought the date rape: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=121030

    We can thank Zonugal once again for providing the creepiest video of the round, saving ChicoBlue from that honor: http://www.vimeo.com/12517473
    ROUND THREE

    We start with another well-animated classic from Grandmaster Flash GSM:
    You too can earn a high score for watching Ten's video! Also, check out the epilogue of [vidurl=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxhSuctiVpY]Larlar eating a raw poultry embryo[/vidurl].

    [vidURL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_e-2FP9IeA]ROOOOOOOXXXXXXX(R)AAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE[/vidurl]

    Have I really not mentioned Marcus and His Mysterious Band of Disco Ravens's live action craziness yet? What the hell is wrong with me?
    ChicoBlue reminds us that he is, in fact, a space man (with his space suit on):

    THE QUARTERFINALS

    Nogs did good. Real good. But this was shaping up to be Rane's year. Entries like this didn't hurt:
    bsjezz went down this round, but not without a fight. Sort of: I waited until this point to mention him. Despite the what turned out to be temporary loss in Round 1, he made a pretty spectacular run to the quarters based on the power of the written word. You can read the whole collection here.

    And finally, we had our first and only tie of the tournament, between SabreMau and ChicoBlue. You can check out their entries here: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?p=15483182#post15483182

    THE SEMIFINALS

    Our first semifinal was Ten versus Raneados. Ten showed us the power of addictive flash games once again, however, Rane's four part epic hurtled him into the finals for the first time. Would this be the year?
    Marcus brings us the psychologically thrilling conclusion to his adventure in his battle against ChicoBlue:
    Yet somehow Chico made something even more disturbing...
    THUNDERDOME

    Raneados versus ChicoBlue. Just watch:
    Congratulations to everyone involved in this thing! Please don't take offense if I didn't include your entry! Also, thanks to Larlar for running this shindig.

    P.S.:
