So, here it is. I give you...
THE WEEK 8 TABLE (FINAL STANDINGS)We have a winner!!!!!!!!
Congratulations Banjo. 8 weeks. 8 long weeks you and Dowbocop have tussled at the top. Others have fallen by the wayside, some have done well to catch up with you, but you have both remained consistent and strong, never wavering, and somehow both managing a
100% Task GET! success rate.
However, there can be only one winner, and in the end, it came down to 1, tiny, little bonus point.
Well done Banjo.
It is now you, not I, who is the true Taskmaster In the end, was it the Kangaroo Steak that won it for you? Maybe if you'd known then what you know now, it might have tasted even better than it did. A tremendous performance, Banjo showed the utmost dedication and enthusiasm and fully deserved the victory. Every task was embraced as a personal challenge and this can be seen in the effort he put in. Having said that, Dowbocop showed no less enthusiasm, verve or sense of adventure, and in a sense, he deserves victory just as much as Banjo.
But........ there can be only one.
Your prize winning sig:
(Thanks to Falsey for making the sig)Ok, I'll keep this short and sweet. Thanks a bunch for participating in Tasks of the Week. I have very much enjoyed this and it's certainly been a genuine highlight of my time on these boards. I enjoyed coming up with new tasks each week, but that was eclipsed by the real enjoyment of seeing how each of you approached the tasks in your own different ways, living out new experiences, often beyond the confines of the internet and out in the fresh air. The last 8 weeks have been a hell of a ride.
The Final Table speaks for itself in terms of how much each participant has put into the contest, but even if you only did a couple of tasks, I hope you got something out of them. It was never really supposed to be about competing with others, more about doing things for your own self-achievement.
It would be a disservice to single anyone out, so if you feel like re-reading any of the Task threads and reliving your collective adventures, here they are, below. There are many, many highlights:

Au revoir!P.S. I will be sending prizes, but not for a while. Watch this space.
P.P.S. Thanks to Zenigame for inspiring me to make this into a multi-task competition.
P.P.P.S Thanks to slayerx for giving me the idea of the Parkour task.
P.P.P.P.S Thanks to IronHide for dedication in the face of adversity.
P.P.P.P.P.S Just to reiterate how close the final result was, a Dowbocop sig was also made just in case, like how they have both teams colours ready to adorn the FA Cup at the Wembley Final.
P.P.P.P.P.P.S Sykes, do you really look like you are made out of drainpipes?
Anyway, thanks again everybody.
Task...... Got!
