Just to be very pedantic, I did just about post it when the poll was still open. Thing is- I posted it in response to criticism which only came at this point in time.

I am very happy for an unchanged twist to go ahead, the main thing is its completely fair. I just feel like a couple of extra stations would be better, even if it's only an idea that is implemented next time. I also only suggested/voted for one twist as I felt strongly about it, and didn't want to encourage a twist that might (and eventually did) beat it.

As for Rhys' website, I think its a great idea, and it looks very promising. I do think you could be a bit more sensitive though. While I don't mind that photo of me being on there, its hardly a great one of me, and it would have been nice if you'd have let me know beforehand that you wanted to use it.

It's all silent here as I am slaving away at the website - finding new images, removing anything that you plebs don't want there, amongst others.

It's not updated at the time of writing as I'm writing a news story about the poll result amongst other things.

Andrew, if you could provide me with a link to a useful image of you, that would be great. That one on there was the only one I could find of you on the Tube on Facebook!

Neil, I have removed all Tube Challenge logos to my knowledge (may still be one or two there which I haven't spotted) but links still remain. As your displeasure has not been disclosed, I have kept links to this site.

Matthew, your occupation was only there because of your lack of Tube Challenge achievements. I have now removed it but it does make you look a little boring.

Thanks for that. Links to this site are absolutely fine, as they help people find us.

You of all people, Rhys, should know that Matt is the record holder for the All Lines challenge, by a huge margin too...

I think its crazy how the longest challenge is won by 16 seconds and the shortest by over 5 minutes...

An appeal to those that voted 9-6... if you want change, please side with the rest of us that also wanted change (in the 10-5) department, otherwise no change will happen. Thanks :D

Or we could decide on a compromise and all go to 9-6, a small improvement in my eyes. :)
