Seeing as I was fired from my job because of this game, I'd say that is likely. Certainly from Day 6 or 7 onwards this game literally took over my life. Towards the end the pressure eased but it was always there in the background. A bittersweet beast of burden.
I had originally planned to do a literally MASSIVE
Eliminator retrospective highlighting peoples' memorable events from the contest, counting down through each
Elimination, but no.
I will instead let you all reminisce amongst yourselves, as you have been doing.
And now it is time for the
Eliminator Prize Presentation Ceremony.
StayingDead.
Congratulations.
I may be wrong but I understand you used to be Giann the Schazman on GR 1.0. Well, now you will forever be immortalised as StayingDead. From your naive beginnings as a member of Group A, right to the bitter end, you survived the
Eliminations of 700 other contestants to get here, culminating with the much fancied and highly competitive fan favourite Roonmastor, and certainly, when you got to the last 50 or so, every day became a supreme battle to just be
StayingAlive.
And yet, you did it. From my perspective your will to win was epitomised in your recruiting of an entire
OTHER FORUM to help you win the voting task against PsychicSykes and Spacejebus, and in the process tripling GRcade's membership.
Anyway, onto the
Prize Presentation:

Gotta move like a streetwise fighter. Gotta face the fire of the tiger.
Gotta give your all to win. Ready or not, let the challenge begin.
Can you match the strength of the Eliminator? Do you have the fire within you?
Do you have the heart of a lion? Do you have the power in your soul?
