I need to point out that I am now 5th in the 'Top Ten', just to avoid any accusations of journalistic inaccuracy based on my earlier comments, you understand. And I also need to amend my Woo Hoo! 3 out of 4! to Woo Hoo! 4 out of 5!! I got a tweet with my headline as well, so almost like the holy trinity, but with a couple more added on, I'm still one short of the divine 5.<br /> I thank you. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27238#post-75089 Sat, 02 Jul 2011 16:23:24 +0000 ronseal 75089@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Wait until you've had a "You Used to be Funny" from Rikkor.</p> <p>that's a great honour. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27238#post-75038 Fri, 01 Jul 2011 22:35:37 +0000 Vertically Challenged Giant 75038@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Keep going at it mr payne and the first FP will come along too.</p> <p>Apparently the progression is supposed to be ticker - NiB - FP. I got things wrong and started with a few FPs, then a couple of NiBs, and finally a ticker, which I was disproportionately pleased to get, because I don't do one-liners well. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27238#post-74917 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 20:26:56 +0000 Basil_B 74917@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Believe it or not i've had two FP's in my NB time and that would suggest that if I can do it then anyone can. </p> <p>Well done Mr Payne. Keep it up. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27238#post-74892 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 15:36:10 +0000 Mr Payne 74892@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Thanks, thought it may just be me. Which suggests that there are some blokes in a room somewhere who created this shaking their head and going 'Fuck me! Someone actually cares about this shit? Who'd have thought.' </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27238#post-74891 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 15:24:48 +0000 button 74891@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Well done Mr P. I have to admit my joy at getting an NiB a couple of weeks back was completly disproportionate to the actual achievment. In fact it still puts a smile on my face now. I can't imagine what will happen if I get an FP. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27238#post-74876 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 14:18:22 +0000 beau-jolly 74876@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I got a ticker today after about 4 months in the wilderness. I can't explain my excitment! Mind you I rarely remember to read the front page so I may have been much more succesful than I thought. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27238#post-74864 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 13:46:15 +0000 waylandsmithy 74864@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Exciting, isn't it! And congrats! </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27238#post-74857 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 13:23:45 +0000 Mr Payne 74857@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>So I got the ticker first, followed by an entry in the Top Ten (8th, if you're keeping score). And today I spiked my flag in my first NiB (although to be honest it was heavily edited and most of the flimsy jokes removed. The headline is about the only survivor. Shame about the 'Free Houses' gag, I liked that one). Just the FP to go then.... I don't mind admitting I'm surprisingly chuffed to have crept in amongst your talents. Thanks for putting up with me.<br /> Oh God, what If I'm the NB's 'Andy Murray' - destined to see the final hurdle but always fall and smash open my chin on it? The psychology of this is destructive....<br /> Anyway, personal moment over, back to work. </p>
