Post by: biertourist on March 02, 2014, 04:15:00 PM

What is the reasoning for the blackout? Surely if the names of those being forwarded to the BOS are named it wouldn't prejudice the competition in any way?

(Apologies if this comes across as criticism, it's not. I appreciate all the hard work that's is being put into running the comp  Just would like the reasoning is all :) )

Actually it will do so as BOS judges in theory will know who brewed what and won what category and therefore judge selection in Cork will be tricky.
I am sure they will still throw curve balls on the day as we also had a few yesterday and highest score does not automatically mean a gold medal.
This is a 2 centre competition we have completed Centre 1, judging, Category winners will be published later today from Centre 1, full results and all individual score sheets will only be revealed after centre 2's judging has been concluded.
It's gonna be interesting in Cork and a nail biter :)

If I could make one request to folks in attendance in Cork, can someone please live tweet the medal announcements? Yesterday I couldn't go to the competition, but had great fun following twitter all day with peoples updates and photos. Then suddenly all tweets ended, right before the medals were announced! Everyone enjoying a well deserved break I suppose. Made me feel even worse about not being able to go.

Sorry Brian tbh it was all hands on deck at medal ceremony and tidying up.
Sky sports we are not and I know it's been an anticlimax for those that were not there.
Not sure we have the manpower, do u fancy a job in Cork ;)

Ah, that makes sense, I was under the impression that the winners were announced on the day. Looking forward to the 22nd!

the winners for each category grouping were announced yesterday.
The best of show is only half way through and will resume in Cork.

It would probably be a good idea to post the gold, silver, bronze winners, but keeping the scores private until after the Best of Show.

After all, Kudos and bragging rights are important, and the winners were already publicly announced with medals well flaunted throughout the night in the Black Sheep  ;D

I'm in hospital now but I should get around to putting up the medalists later today if I get out.

We are going to hold all scores until the competition is complete.

I won't be posting a list of scores here. Individuals can get their entries from the comp system when they are available.

But if they're on Facebook or Twitter they already know who won what medals from round 1...  The pictures were all over FB over the last few days...

I personally intend to "drink it off my mind" i.e. By the time I get to Cork I won't even remember the name of the cinema that hosted the first half of the comp!

[See its working already :)]
