Congratulations to all the winners! Thanks to everybody that made this a great show to end a great year. Some final business to attend to...
Final purse numbers for the year are up.
Also, based on the nominations that were submitted (and thanks to the people that did), polls are now posted for the year end awards. These polls will automatically lock (therefore revealing the winners) on New Year's Day. You have until then to vote.
We're officially on break! UGWC will return in 2011 with our first Synergy of the new year being either January 10 or 17, details to follow as we get closer to it.
Damn I forgot all about the nominations. Sorry guys!
Wow, what a damn year, what a damn match, what a damn show.
Thanks to everyone who has worked with me for the past year, there are a lot of things I couldn't have pulled off without everyone's cooperation. I'll be honest, for many months I've considered leaving, especially after everyone who brought me here left, and I didn't think I'd have anything to go on. The amount of participation convinced me to stick around though.
Congrats to all the other winners tonight, and congrats all around for a damn fine year.
The explanation of what happened at the end of the show is coming, so watch the unofficial promo board.
PS: My gf stayed up to read this with me, and she did all Mitchell Dennis's parts, lol.

Fucking ripper of a show, what a way to cap off an eventful year. I hope that everyone here has enjoyed RP'ing against one another since the merger, I know I have against you all. One incredibly minor thing got me, I thought St. Jimmy was a Hyena, but like I said, relativley minor complaint in the long run. Everyone who has contributed should feel damn proud of themselves. This has been (from memory) our longest show, and the one with the quickest full turnout. Congrats also to the winners.
John, man, I'll be completely honest with you. When you posted, I thought that I would lose for sure. You did incredibly well, and the close vote reflects that, I feel. So great effort, and hope to repeat that spectacle soon

Good spot JK, I can only blame the Flu for my mistake there, but appreciate you pointing it out, cause I have been able to correct it. St. Jimmy is now, once again, a Hyena.
I'm glad the feedback has been so positive for the show, because everyone who got involved writing matches really stepped up for the biggest show of the year. Thanks to Matt, Bryan, Ichy and JK for giving Steve and I the chance to concentrate on the matches we wrote. I know Steve really thrived being able to just concentrate on the epicness of the Carnage Match.
I hope you all agree with Steve's sentiments yesterday that this was worth the wait.
Congratulations to Ichy on his win, it marks the end of a very long storyline you have dedicated yourself to for over a year, and hope you enjoyed the ME, and didn't mind Declan and I crashing proceedings for a lil' bit.
Another Title for JK's collection, but am I right in thinking it is your first here in UGWC? Congrats on that as you have been consistent all year, and given us some memorable moments.
Pierce came out of a tough crowd of competitors, and that shows how highly you are regarded by the guys here, bad luck for DJS, so close to a second win in the MITB style match at Horizons.
Congrats to Matt on a very successful night, not only retaining the Dragon name but the Coop Titles AND the R1B's careers.
And P, you deserved that win, and I honestly don't know how I managed to get a single vote. I wasn't good enough for our feud this month, but even if I had turned up more this month, I doubt I could have competed with what you delivered. I hope you enjoyed the Vigilante Match, as we had discussed many of the ideas within it.
Yeah, that's all for now.

An absolutely awesome show to end the year with, congrats to all the winners and great job by all the writers, particularly Hastings who did a great job with the Carenage match, in what could have been a mess it came out brilliant. I loved how Declan and Travis fought throughout the show and it was a sad moment to see Declan retire despite wining, though touching to see him reunited with Cara. Again great show guys!

Yeah, it was worth the wait. Everything else has been said, but I'll second or third some things. Congrats to all the winners. I think the fed, at least what I remember of it between my extended breaks, really stepped up for Horizons so the winners really, REALLY, stepped up. It was a blast to see the different takes, taken and not, on the stips.
Thanks to all the match writers who made Horizons so much bigger than just another show. Really gave this event some sizzle deserving so many of the close votes. You all deserve a round of applause.
Cheers to everyone who's been here week in and week out keeping the doors open so I know there's always somewhere to come back to. Enjoy your break. You've all earned it.
And Declan Prescott is retiring, but what about P? Just out of curiosity.
I have to be honest. I had been stupid busy and Matt wrote the entire Dragon vs Dragon God match. We did work together with ideas and such but he wrote the whole thing and it was Epic. The dude just has a way of showing Marek's speed exactly how I imagine it.
The match writers were awesome, which has already been said. Everyone stepped it up and it showed. I'm bummed about my performance but votes are votes and the show was awesome.
I know left feeds already, but I left stuff out.
Congrats to JK on becoming a champion again and congrats to Matt with the R1B win and career save.
Congrats again to all the winners and DP.. you sly bastard. Win and still retire. What the eff. Haha.
