Yes, its aracadey. Yes, its looks a little corny. However, its a damn OLYMPIC GAME! 😄 I've been waiting for the next one in the pipeline ever since I played the shit out of Athens 2004 and many a night on International Track and Field back in the day with my mates, bashing the shit out of the controller. The great news is that its up to 8 players online so a decent size for many an FG night of hilarious games trying to beat each other at whatever sport is up next. There's 18 events, not in any order btw: 4 x 100M Relay 110M Hurdles Football 200M Individual Medley Boxing Beach Volleyball Table Tennis Tennis Sport Climbing 100M 100M Freestyle Hammer Throw Baseball Rugby Sevens Basketball Judo Long Jump BMX Its availble on June 22nd, although I've tried to pre-order after I received my email and the website is still showing that they've not got the links for retailers to buy it from. Anyone else fancy some hilarious games on an FG night???! Can't believe they have Rugby Sevens ffs! 🤣

Here it is. The 33 whittled down to 26. A lotof talent involved this time round and I have a genuine excitement that we can do well - hopefully as well last time out. Henderson picked for experience and support for the team I think over form and Bellingham in for experience for future competitions, although he has a great chance if we need stability in an out and out midfielder cos there isn't many of them in that squad. I think Watkins was probably my only disappointment based on his recent form, but its not that much of a shock tbh. Ready for the over-hyped glory as always? Of course we are! #FootballsComingHome Thoughts?

In 2018, I set up the FG Awards as a way to recognise a few people within the FG family to say thank you for what they have done to help others. I hope that all will enjoy the awards and maybe start to hope one day they'll get one themselves. I feel proud we can do such things in a year which i know most would want to forget. I promised to have a good send off to 2020 and that's what we're gonna do below! Young FGer of the Year We've played years with him but its only over the last 6-12 months where we've able to really get him part of the group where he has shined through many raid completions on Destiny 2. Not standing for just making up the numbers either, he has been able to help many inexperienced FGers to their first raid clearance ever on Destiny and other more experienced folk to get their first ever clearances for newer raids when it was virtually at its hardest point. I can't wait for him to get more involved with everyone, as he has fantastic skills and extremely mature head on his shoulders that really helps explain even the most difficult scenario to most inexperienced team player. You should be real proud of that boy, Bob @Baabcat . Well done Charlie! Winner - @Venom - Charlie FG Noobie of the Year Its been a joy to have this guy around after joining FG in April and has embraced everything about what we are since. Getting involved on FG Fridays games, offering to be part of teams where possible to help achieve goals, putting his views across the entire of FG, including creating his own PPR for his trials and tribulations on PS Trophy hunting! He's always up to give anything a go and his positive attitude is what we've needed over such a turbulent year. FG is a better place with the small Welshman (who'd have thought it?). Well done Paul! Winner - @slamminbones - Paul FG Guardian Down Award The FG Awards wouldn't be awards without one being about making funny moments happen, even if they didn't intend it! When I think of every FG Friday this year, I always wanted to make sure he was there. He'll play some games even if he's propping the bottom of the leaderboard up, getting shotgunned in the face every 2 seconds, or getting smashed off the GTA track. His deadpan way of life is brilliant and we'd be lost without him to be honest. His love/hate relationship he has for games is just incredible as he will play through any type of crap to have fun with anyone here and that attitude and commitment you just can't buy. Don't ever change Gary. And thank you for all you do outside of this for FG. Always massively appreciated. Winner - @techno - Gary FG Archbishop of Banterbury This award was most jovial and joker of the pack this year. He's been in the FG Wilderness for a while now but since coming to the BIG FG meet up last October, we have been graced with his ever present glorious self in a multitude of colourful goop. He has a funny knack of being able to bring the fun whatever the occasion, in his sexy accent and possible beer smelling mouth. And even though he usually doesn't know what the hell is going on, I don't think this man doesn't ever not care about any FGer in this place. If he could, he'd do anything for you - and guaranteed to put a smile on your face via his 1 minute game videoclips of something completely random. We're extremely lucky to have you Cal! Winner - @TheMuggySpud - Cal FG Skills Award This could've gone to a few people this year. @Greboth still knocking it out the park in whatever he makes in Minecraft and Artwork, @Teenwolf25 and @FallenDark200 making strides in solo/2-man runthroughs on Destiny 2 activities and raids, @datfroggieguy 's capacity to eat all the camos and cod challenges for breakfast, @tronic44's clever base antics in 7 Days with everyone else chipping in.....the list just goes on. But for once, I see a guy who is relentless - and i mean utterly relentless - and finding enough clips of mini plays to cause anyone to go into full panic if we had to make him another montage video of just the past week (you should check his PPR out as its pretty darn amazing). He has a great attitude towards how to tackle certain challenges and shares what could work for people. I'm sure having his newly born premature daughter home for Christmas is a way better present than this could ever show, however Kenny's skills won't go unnoticed any longer! Top stuff, squire! Winner - @IRaMPaGe - Kenny FGer of the Year When I can't do stuff around here, it gets to me. And i've learned that even myself can lean on people even when I didn't need to. Not just keeping FG going, but moving it forward to something even more can enjoy in a year that we'd all want to forget is remarkable really. He's helped out massively with under the hood stuff, like moderation, donations, game days/nights, event creation...more than you people will realise. But above all, he's a geniune man that wants us as a family to achieve all the things we want to, on a personal and family level. He'll always be interested in what you have to say and probably felt like he's sacrificed many years of his life to this place in doing so! Like FG isn't the same with most of you all being around, it certainly isn't FG if Phil isn't around. Thanks for all that you do Phil, you sir a gent and a Legend. Winner - @phil bottle - Phil FG Hall of Fame Each year I try to honour the achievements of people in the FG family that will show on paper, not just in real life that they will always be FG no matter what and rightly should be invited into the Hall of Fame. He is outspoken, volatile, random, hilarious, caring, hilarious, OTT, crazy and damn right impossible not to love (trust me, i've tried many times). It was never going to go much longer until this chap got into this because he built the foundations of FG. He built what why we're all here in the first place. When you realise at first hand the stuff I see in what's involved in everything that FG does, its incredible that we even started to exist in the first place. He lights up the room when he comes online, he even makes people laugh on the amount of times he then leaves the controller for his 53rd Poo of the night. But we wouldn't change him. And neither should anyone as that what we get with Diddums, right? Dave, thank you for all that you have done and also continue to do for FG. It never goes unnoticed in my book. Winner - @Diddums - Dave And with that, we're done! 2020 has been a dick of a year. But you're all here. We're all together, fighting the good fight and i'm sure 2021 will bring the best out in FG.

Thought it was easier separating it out so people can share pics and stories on what they got up to. And just a heads up, don't feel like you're 'flexing' yourself off, I never think any of you guys and girls do that so share as much as you like. Might give more ideas to birthdays and other Feel Good presents we could do! 😍😎

I'll admit it, we're struggling what to get for our kids. I'm struggling for Hayley to if i'm honest. So can anyone lend me a hand if they've seen some decent fun things on the t'internet please? My kids have also got to the age where a lot of toys just don't cut it anymore (mine are 8 and 11) so any funky ideas wouldn't go a miss. As for myself, I'm thinking of asking for some Blackburn Rovers stuff and some PS5 games like usual but i'm also interested in trying out the new Pulse 3D headset for the PS5 to see if there is an improvement in sound over astros as its specifically designed for it. We'll also look at getting one or two of these for wider family members: We did our very first one at Halloween and were surprised how good it was. They are a once only play unfortunately but just over a tenner they seem a great stocking filler! Answers below please - come and help Uncle Santa out!!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our North American FGers! We hope you have a great day today and enjoy lots and lots of Turkey and Pumpkin Pie! Let us know what you're up to in this surreal 2020 we seem to be having. Fingers crossed you still get to celebrate and relax. ❤️🦃

Let's get the Giving Something Back moving this year that I eluded to in the recent Article posted. We need a Charity to affiliate to, like we asked about in June 2018 but never continued the momentum. Once we have them, we can engage with them and also start looking at doing some small Charity work to support the chosen Charity. I don't want to set a target figure as of yet, let's take this a stage at a time. So if you could be so kind to vote for one or the few that you would be happy to support, after a week we'll close the poll and which ever has won we will name them as our affiliated Charity for at least the next 12 months. A little bit more info of each Charity can be found below: MIND - https://www.mind.org.uk/ Extra Life - https://www.extra-life.org/ Special Effect - https://www.specialeffect.org.uk/ Child's Play - http://childsplaycharity.org/ These were all narrowed down from the list we had previously from all of you so hopefully you'll agree any one of these would be a great cause to get behind. If you want to add a reason why you voted for one, please put it down below in the comments.
