FUMBBL Dice contest winner!
A bit more than a year ago a gauntlet was thrown down. Were there any brave souls who would sprint with each ARR race? These are the races that get the snot (literally) kicked out of them. The races that are the least played in the box. Those shunned weirdos that many in the think are nothing more than punching bags. Well, the contest to sprint (play 16 games in one season) with all 8 ARR races is complete. Only one brave soul was crazy brave enough to complete the challenge in the allotted time, though two others stood out and almost made it. Let's talk about them first.
The contest ran from Feb 1st 2014 to Feb 1st 2015, server time.
HonARRable mention: Dunenzed, who sprinted with 7 races - all but Slann - in the allotted time, and completed a Slann sprint in the very first ARR season... If the contest rules had been worded slightly differently he might have been able to steal the prize with a 50% die roll. But since he knows enough about chance, it's clear he would have lost anyway. ;)
RunnARR up: xnoelx, sprinting with 8 races, but twice with flings and none with Underworld. Some might say he should be rewarded for such bravery - myself among them. However, bravery will have to be it's own reward for now, as he shall not be awarded with the prize.
WinnARR: with an impressive 17 total sprints (8 of them stunty), the winner of a set of FUMBBL Dice and poker chip is cdassak! 17 sprints (272 games at least!) from the hardest and least loved races in the box is a mighty accomplishment. Season I had only 18 and Season IV had 16 total, so it is with head held high that we can claim cdassak as the champion who has brought most diversity to the box this past year. Congrats!

Special thanks to The_Murker for sponsoring this prize and allowing our contest to have a really nice conclusion. I hope he's as happy with the results as I am!
While the contest is over, the race is ongoing! Last season had a record breaking 41 sprints. Come join the fun. It's not hard, it's just

Dang. My own silly fault. I did sprint with UW, but that was in the December 2013-January 2014 season. Should've paid closer attention to the rules...

I'm sure cdassak should be disqualified for the number of times he broke FUMBBL this last year!
But on a more serious note, congratulations to all ARR! Sprinters. You are all champions of diversity and have helped make the box a better place this last year. Keep up the great work!

I suggested after the first month we should just give it to cdassak there and then :P

Thanks (I guess) guys :)
Run a check, I have 427 ARR games from a total of 665 Box games(64%) and it goes to 74% combining ARR and HLP.

I had a hunch it was more than 272 games cdassak. ;)
Sorry xnoelx, I didn't notice you also had the full 8 including season 1. Still, I guess no one can argue too much with cdassask winning top honARRs. I was trying to do this myself and ended up with 2 complete sprints and two half finished sprints. It is harder than it seems to keep up a steady pace! So well done to all three of you!
I was hoping the Ultimate WARRrior badge (sprint with each ARR race) would be ready to award to you all by now, but we're still waiting on the art.
