It was dramatic, one minute we were all having a laugh speculating at who Tracy had meant next thing we knew the thread was closed, we started a new one briefly but they let us back in when they had removed the "offensive" posts Good times

Interesting to read that Dan's odds were so long at the start. Amy was a rank outsider, and should never have been in the final.

This change of thread seems to have galvanised the mafia! I like it.”

I was just thinking of FDUX in the car today (as you do ...) Did we ever hear how much he won or what happened to them?

It really does take forever to go through old posts but its really nice to read it again.

ETA: I just went to look for part 1 of this thread and ended up on the Jessica Forum

Ciao Apollonia. You started a new thread? I wonder if that is somewhere in the archives. 'The aborted Dan thread'.

I just made a somewhat shocking discovery going back and reading FXDUX's infamous "Chosen One" thread. I was happily reading the first page of that thread, when I came across the following (seemingly 100% right-on) post by one of our not-so-favorite posters:

Such an interesting theory. However, you can usually manipulate any situation to fit any particular 'conspiracy' idea.

But to add to it, I can also remember ALW stating early on something like "I want to keep my powder dry at this stage." Could that be because his favourite hadn't yet performed?

Also, the comment he made (and more particularly the way it was said) to Sophie along the lines of "I have to say you are extremely talented," (note the first four words), did kind of sound like he was sub-consciously addressing a possible runner-up.

”

(cue creepy "Twilight Zone"-type music)

Hi Sonny,
It was one of the mafia started it but it lasted all of 10 minutes mostly us complaining about the mods letting the other stuff on other threads go but closing our thread. It was all resolved in the end.

I started it. It was called something like "why was the Danielle thread locked?" and it was just what Lemming described--a bunch of us complaining about being locked out of our thread. When the main thread was opened back up, the other thread was deleted.

That was a really weird day. I even got a warning for using the word "haters" to describe Dan's detractors when they were calling us much worse and getting away with it.

You got a warning for that? Seriously?

BIB: I think thats is what got to everyone that night, seriously unequal moderating from the mods there.

ETA: Reading back, how early did the chosen stuff start? Im reading posts from april talking about.

Wow, that sounds like an exciting 10 minutes. You early mafia sure fought some wars!

Apollonia: Baby D knows more about the gambling side than I do. I think FXDUX called himself a hedger rather than a gambler. He lost nerve and didn't win as much on Dan as he should have done. Maybe he lost faith in his conspiracy theory!

Some fought some tough battles, I barely ventured outside this thread unless to get spoilers but did take on the few haters who decided to come in here.

I think he was quite an erratic poster but suppose he got his money in the end.

How could anyone lose faith in Danielle? (Just check our posts on final night after 76 trombones )

ETA: Does Peeve still post on here or the forum? she made some great early posts on the thread
SnoopMK

Peeve posted on the forum once or twice about a month or so ago. It was a long time since we'd heard from her. She sometimes responds to group messages on the Facebook group (like when I've warned people about fake Danielle profiles).

Speaking of the forum, it's nice that the thread here is doing so well, but let's not neglect the forum as well. I've posted a new video with an interview with Danielle, and there are some cool discussions and casting news that can be added to. Come check it out!

Ok, after much searching through the threads I have found what FXDUX's bets were near the start:

Danielle wins: +£456
Stephanie wins: +£300
Jenny wins: -£35
Lauren wins: -£164
Jessica wins: -£174
Sophie wins: -£174
Dani wins: -£382
Emilie wins: -£559
Steph wins: -£559

It's not perfect but it's ok.”

Then bet hedging commences and he ends up this:

Should have just let it be!

c£275 win on whichever of Danielle or Sophie wins. Not bad. Half an iPad.”

Dude should've just stuck with Dan & got a full iPad!

Apologies for the massive multi-quoting coming up but this must be done. It's from the final night thread, it's the collective WTF moment:
