Here we go folks, we have a winner! But before announcing who the winner is I have to thank you all for your entries, you have made choosing the winner a very difficult task. I was undecided so I had to ask for some help from my wife. :) She has read all your comments, then voted for her favourite and her vote clinched the decision: the winner is…
… TheZiggy! Here’s his beautiful comment:
FMS – The Unofficial History
From the darkest heart of winter, in the post-Christmas lull, an acorn of an idea was planted on the web. The first shoots were soon sprouting into an uncertain world, carefully tended by one dedicated man, who soon found a small band of admirers who came to rejoice in the birth of a new tree of knowledge in the world of Football Manager. An intriguing story and insightful articles brought many like-minded souls to exchange information. The few with poison in their minds were soon banished to web’s hinterland, such was the feeling of affection among the followers. From these humble beginnings a few enthusiastic individuals were then invited to also tend the tree as branches containing other stories began to sprout. Three years on a mighty oak has matured into a fine specimen, with a steady stream of visitors looking to divine some of the accumulated wisdom, and improve their experience in-game. At it’s very best, an inspiration to others to undertake their own challenge, and create another intriguing story. At the very least, there is entertainment and information to be found. Long live the mighty tree that is Football Manager Stories.
Congratulations to Ziggy and big thanks again to all of you for your continued support. Have a great year everybody filled with joy both in Football Manager and in your day to day lives!
P.S.: Ziggy, please contact me when you decide which is the prize that you want.
