The avatar challenge

Pratters · 20-10-2005, 02:34 PM

When England won the Ashes, a lot of people had to put a lot of strange things in their avatars.

Now its your chance to do the same!

Claim some thing will never happen. Else you put some thing as your avatar.

Posters whose avatars have not changed for quite some time:

Neil
Marc
Samuel vimes
Richard
Age master
TEC
NNanden
Faaip
Tim
Halsey
Sudeep
Andy - Mr. Pineapple
Deja moo - Mr. Tf

These are of course just some of the names.

Samuel Vimes has already made himself an avatar challenge http://forum.cricketweb.net/showpost...&postcount=224

Will you?

Some forthcoming series which may give you the feelings of putting up avatar challenges:

England in Pakistan
New Zealand in South Africa
Sri Lanka in India

Mine's staying Pratyush. Sorry

Barney Rubble · 20-10-2005, 02:54 PM

If England lose a Test in Pakistan, I'll let the rest of the board choose which Pakistan player I have in my avatar for the proceeding month.

Hey Aussie,there was a debate last night on radio about ,Why are small players the cream of cricket and only great bowlers(fast) are tall,
They mentioned Tendulkar,Ponting,Lara,Border,Bradman,Gavaskar,War ne ,Marulli, just to name a few. They come to the conclusion that the height of these and others has a lot to do with the success,however they said they believe a perfect build for cricket is around Viv Richards,Graham,Pollock,Garry sobers height,But hey were really struggling to find a great tall,that excelled with the bat,they come up with Clive Lloyd,can you think of another great tall to challenge these pip sqeeks.\
Must be something oin it though as the small players seem to be the ones that hold all the records?

I will change mine to Crazy Frog. How annoying! For one month if NZ lose ODI series against SAF

Adamc · 20-10-2005, 09:28 PM

I don't think Neil will ever change his avatar, because once he does, he can never change it back.

NZTailender · 20-10-2005, 11:15 PM

If NZ lose the ODI series vs South Africa then I'll do the same as Barney - I'll let someone choose which South African player to be my avatar...

I'd imagine that with his role in the site he could persuade James to let him change it...

age_master · 21-10-2005, 01:05 AM

An easy way to shy away from the challenge

BoyBrumby · 21-10-2005, 01:30 AM

I change mine all the time (I get bored easily), but here's one: if England lose the test series in Pakistan I'll have Robbie C. Williams as my avatar for a month.
