CFL Circle of Champions/Ring of Honour

CFL Talk
1

I have previously mentioned creating a record of CFL Forum Pool
Champions and therefore I am doing so. Some of you have reminded me to post this and I am finally getting around to it.

This record starts in 2022 when I became involved in the various pools to some extent and for which I have accurate records. I intend to maintain this thread over time and add to it when new champions are crowned. The next one will not be until November 2024 for the CFL Pool. I am aware that there have been some on and off pools in the past, particularly for the CFL, but I do not have records for those. If anyone else has accurate records please link me to them and I will gladly add them to this post.

The initial inductees into the Circle of Champions/Ring of Honour are as follows:

Edit: Abbey has been kind enough to provide a list of past CFL GCC pool winners as per my invitation for anyone to do so. Rather than retyping it I will provide a screenshot of Abbey’s list below. I will add the past champion names to the race for inclusion in the coveted 5 Timer’s Club. Thanks Abbey!

Hopefully all of you and many more will continue to compete in all forum pools, or as many as you would like to. I think there is a general consensus that pool participation makes the sport involved much more interesting to follow, even when your favorite is no longer in the hunt.

I think I have it all correct, but as always, if you notice any errors please let me know.

Waiting for a jeweler member to do that.

No monetary prizes so bragging rights are important as is membership in the 5 timers club.

Hopefully it also encourages participation.

I’m waiting for that member, who is a powerful person in the airline industry,
just so we can have access to the secret airport lounge and free upgrades to first class for any empty seat so that flying in a plane does not have to be as much of a pain in the butt.

Thanks Abbey. I have made the appropriate changes to the OP.

I was waiting for this day to arrive but didn’t expect it to arrive this year.

Although it is awkward that it is moi, I am honoured to be the first member of the 5 Timer Club. I’m looking forward to some company.
