That's very true!    Between 1992 and 2004 I had a Cavalier SRi.  I had a choice between buying a red one or a white one.   I went for the white one...

Surprised no one has come up with this one. 

We were always trying to persuade our children to eat more green vegetables. I used to say to them 'Come on, give peas a chance'

If you'd gone for a red one you would have had a white one eventually.

Missed the vote again!, but looks like there are a few I can have a go at if I get the time.

Well, that's it for another year.  The definitive GB calendar for 2025 is available in the Future Group Builds forum.

 

This has been a bumper year for groupbuild proposals: we have never had this many proposals in The Bunfight.   It's clear that the groupbuild forum is a very vibrant and enthusiastic area.  We often joke about how I have to herd cats and plait fog but to be honest being Group Build Moderator is really quite rewarding.   I also joke that herding cats is easy if you can convince the cats that it was their idea to go where you want them to go.  That's not really relevant here.  We all know where we want to go.  I don't have to convince you lot!  

 

The Bunfight is a lot of fun.  Usually it's utter carnage - this year was no exception.     However, for me the end of The Bunfight is a somewhat bittersweet experience.  A lot of people have put a lot of thought into their proposals.  Every! Single! One! of them had merit and I would have enjoyed taking part in them all.  I always feel a little sad for the GBs which don't make the grade and the prospective hosts who put a lot of effort into lobbying for them.

 

So with that in mind I would like to give my sincere thanks to every one of you who proposed a GB, who volunteered as a co-host for a GB or who signed up for one.  You all make the BM GB Massive what it is: a true community. 

 

So let's look to the future and start planning our builds for 2025.  It's gonna be fun!   

[Dave Klaatu]

All our thanks for what you do, Enzo!

I am relatively new to BM; this fall was my first GB, and this was my first bunfight- I loved it! This group is the best part of the BM forum, and an awesome community! Do what you will, I'm STAYING in the hot tub!

You're gonna have to get out eventually.  We'll need to clean it at some point...

Its amazing how many pairs of Group Builders Speedos get jammed in the filter during the yearly Bumfight.

Maybe you need to turn down the temperature of the hot tub.
