Start a new one (once again) or get some new juges.

Actually, Kat notified me that I am replacing her as judge.

I forwarded the PM to DP. Perhaps he hasn't recieved this, yes?

Ok great, but that still leaves, Azzy and Lordy. Well Lordy seems fairly active.

For starters, you Olympic judges might try judging the Corporation vs Blackstar.

Sorry, but I thought the judging was already through. I did the EC vs Guardian Matchup, and I did Father Mac vs Ace Addman. There are still more to go?

I second EnD's animal impression, for should the Olympics not be allowed to run their course, the Dojo WILL BE DESTROYED.

Fincancially.

BEHOLD! The following is a list of people who have bet on the Olympics NOT finishing by the end of 2006, and the amount of money that they will receive on the first day of 2007:

* Embri - Bet 1 Yen

, Wins 1,000 Yen

* Seph - Bet 500 Yen

, Wins 500,000 Yen

* SFOT - Bet 20 Yen

Yes, on January First the Blackstar Dojo will be flooded with an excess of 155 million Yen

. Want something to compare that to? The current total possessions being held in the First Bank of Blackstar Dojo is a meagre 28.9 million. You don't need to be a mathematologist to know that this is like pouring an ocean into a pond (or if you prefer a more humourous analogy, forcing an elephant into a pair of pants custom-made for midgets).

So, possibile solutions:
* Cancel the bet - No. This bet has been up since the Olympics began, and some people have had their bets in for just as long. It's not fair to take the bets down just because it looks like they might win, and it's also illegal to do such a thing in places that allow gambling as far as I know (but let's not bring lawyers into this Razz

).
* Refund the bet - Again, I'd say no, for similar reasons to before. The bet shouldn't have existed if people weren't supposed to win it.
* Finish off the Olympics - YES! Two months and a bit left before the end of the year, I'd say it's quite possible, and definately the best chance to help the economy from being totally crushed.

So, I'd suggest getting right onto it - you have around 1,680 hours until the economic doomsday device better known as the bookmakers goes off, give or take a few hours depending on the time zone that the Dojo is set to.
