Mad respect to everyone who toughed it out for the clowns over the past few days. We were under the gun with a relentless onslaught basically from the very beginning and held our ground the whole time. You guys make me proud to be a Laughing Stock. Thanks to your positivity and encouragement, some difficult times in this competition felt a lot smoother. From the beginning, you all provided the team with a very fun atmosphere with positive vibes, and it showed in how we fought as a group of Clown Spartans.

This wasn’t the position we hoped for, unfortunately. At the end of this competition, there’s only 1 out of 12 teams that isn’t going to be disappointed with their finish. I have to say this is one of the fiercest late finishing teams I’ve ever seen. They had to earn every single life they took from us. Nothing at all was given for free, the way the competition should be.

Apologies to my team that the flip didn’t really work out as we had hoped. We came with a massive coalition of teams, but can’t do much about cowardice and others deciding to settle for losing when they went back. I’m glad we stayed with our convictions. It made the competition more fun than being someone else’s bitch just to get a couple places higher. It definitely woke the team up and gave us a lot more energy.

Huge shout out to Laura first and foremost. Did I read the chat right that you were calling pushes for over 20 hours (correction: 30 hours) straight? God damn what an animal! No naps; no mercy! Dedication like that are exactly why us Laughing Stocks were no joke.

PlatinumDevil’s bot was absolute money too. That thing helped us get very organized very quickly with little hassle. And you were in chat regularly keeping things light.

The rest of the leadership team of ThtAstronautGuy, Kitten, and Tangwvlin were all extremely vital to our team. Each did great jobs giving feedback and adapting to the current situations. I cannot stress enough how much I enjoyed leading with all of you and would gladly do it again. You all did great at filling a lot of the [huge] gaps that I was leaving.

Also shout outs to other key contributors either with help calling pushes or supplies or general council help. In no particular order: Ohadik, RebelOnline, 811, PropHunt, DrChrono, tos, Herodotus, Lunette, Cinci, Jazeejas. Apologies if I missed anyone. It’s a bit late when I wrote this. Didn’t mean any disrespect to a fellow prankster gangster.

10 out of 10. Would fight with you clowns again. Now for the actual reason for our early finish:

Team it's been an honour serving with all of you!

This elim didn't go exactly as planned, but it's been a hell of a run! You've all fought so hard, even to the very end!

The victory may not be ours, but we've flipped the script, at least for a short while, on the top few teams just getting propped up the entire competition, and left their leaderships in tatters. This fight has been hard fought, and we have taken many lives while doing so.

Thank you to everyone who has helped us along the way! Fidel and Tang and Kitten for being our co-leads, PlatinumDevil for being an amazing bot guy, aktivist and rebelonline for your help, DrChrono and Jazezass and Cinci for helping with supplies, and each and every one of our pushers, who have been there time after time to call the hits! We couldn't have done it without you, and every one of our members!

Clown army, I will see you all next year!

The clown car has finally crashed but we took it pretty bloody far despite the massive shoes.

It has been an honour and privilege - what a stellar team to have been a part of, fighting until the bitter end and refusing to just give in when the going got tough. Thank you for all your hard work and being part of a genuinely nice experience of teamwork. This has been a circus I've been proud to be a part of.

That ticket we took out with us is a badge of honour.

Now please all go the f**k to sleep

20 HOURS STRAIGHT??!!! Damn! From my experience, That alone deserves a lot of respect besides EVERYTHING ELSE in this elims.

OMG!!! Well Played!

We'll try to replicate atleast half of that and we'll be proud! Hats off to the role model for Elims Pushes forever!

That battle was crazy. Popping down to the bottom of the board then back up. I don't know what's happening behind the scenes with leadership politics but you guys put up a great fight!

I wouldn’t of had eliminations any other way strong group of leaders fierce group of clowns and huge shout out to Proxima for making a massive 2 hits where would we be without committee members like this folks!
Lunette [1493108]
Love you guys! I’m super proud of how we fought to the very last life. We didn’t just roll over, and the effort from everyone (at all hours) was brilliant.

(Someone is apparently butt hurt. Maybe sit out next year?)

We fought one hell of a fight, GG all. Glad to finish tied for top 10 on hits, I'm not quite organised enough to be top hitter... yet.

Edit: Laura is a f**king god.
