June has come and gone, and that means the end of the first annual Goozlympics. A total of 36 Goozex members brought home at least one medal for their respective teams across a total of 40 different games. Before we get into the results, I'd like to thank everyone from the captains to game hosts to the players for making this first foray into a major gaming event a giant success. It couldn't have been done without you!

Thanks a lot Tainted!
alas a dramatic fall from grace for the puny humans
Thanks for putting all this together Tainted. I enjoyed going up with/against other goozers.
Congrats to everyone!!
What a great event! As some of you may have heard, the players on the winning team (Game Over) plus all three team captains will receive a Goozlympics 2008 shirt. A small token of our appreciation for having THE BEST DAMN GAMING COMMUNITY OUT THERE!
Please give us a little time to set that up, but you you'll have them sooner than later.
Cheers,
Mark
Psh! Just feel lucky that you get to live. Coyote and I were thinking of spoiling everyones olympics by forming a 2s team to sweap all gold medals.
Straight pillage your villages, weak humans! muahahahhahahahha
An absolutely great event Tainted, thank you. Then, Puny Humans fell to the will of Akdar, and Game Over won the day. Thank you for all the hard work that went into planning and running this Tainted I had a blast.
Also, will the non-winning participants have the option to buy T-shirts?

You'd have been nothing more than a stepping stone to the top of the podium. Game Over would have crushed you like all the rest ()
Thanks for putting together a great event Tainted. Very well done.

For sure shawn, we will definitely make the shirts available for the non-winning participants to purchase at their discretion! Thanks!
