QUONtroversy

The pointscore has been removed from the blog. It is currently with Deloitte who are conducting an audit. It seems that BD's points from indoor cricket, the hill climb and the TdF tipping comp haven't been accounted for. Word is BD has a sizeable lead going in to tomorrow's RR.

STOP PRESS STOP PRESS



Maritime authorities have today released a press statement that is believed to be linked to the most prestigious race on cyclings calendar, the QUON Road Race. The QRR is scheduled for Saturday morning the 11th May. The statement, which does not appear to be finialised, was said to have been found beside the image above on a photocopier.

"I would like to thanks the team for the opportunity that I have been given today. I will begin by announcing my revolutionary 4 point plan (note to self, don't forget to get this off Terra)
  1. From now on all events will start and finish within 50 meters of O'Connor shops (#socentral)
  2. Points will be deducted for people who actually follow through and do anything to support any events the QUON are holding.
  3. Arm flapping is to be rewarded above all other things
  4. From this day forward there will be no riding of criterium races, Triathlons will be the ultimate event.
Based on the above plan......."

While authorities have not identified the author of the plan it is believed that they are working with Australian Federal Police on a number of substantial leads.

QUON Master could be decided by Rap Battle

PRESS RELEASE

For immediate release.
Written and authorised by: MC Kayne, Team QUON Rookie, puppet, and occasional spokesperson.
 
QUON Master could be decided by Rap Battle

I am releasing this statement today due to overwhelming public interest in the upcoming Team QUON Road Race World Championships (TQRRWC), which will be a key event in selecting the next QUON Master (QM).

It is no exaggeration to say that my phone has been running hot with inquiries regarding the likely outcome, from both the public and from within Team QUON itself.

I have also been approached by several of the protagonists, and their lobbyists, with suggestions as to the grading of athletes, the composition of teams, and the allocation of points for the TQRRWC.

All of these approaches have been given due consideration in determining the TQRRWC teams recently announced.


Not to pre-empt the outcome of the Road Race, where anything could happen, but it is highly likely that the competition for QM will result in a 3-way tie.

As you know, current QM Rock is fulfilling his obligations representing Team QUON at the Giro d'Italia, and will be unable to defend his title.

Uber and Randwick are at the top of the leaderboard, and Big Dog was reportedly seen on a bike recently, leading many to believe he is planning an under-the-radar shock-and-awe assault on the title.

In the likely event the pointscore is tied after the TQRRWC, I propose that the title of QUON Master be settled by a rap battle between the protagonists.

As you know, I am a well-regarded rap and hip-hop artist myself, and will be present to provide expert commentary and critique to assist in judgement.

For those who have not experienced a rap battle before, here are samples of what we can expect:

As an aside, my own recent release, #PermissionToWOW, is just about to go viral worldwide:

I have discussed this process with the contenders, and they have all commenced work on their raps.  They have also given me the following quotes for publication:

Uber: "(nervous laugh) QM? Does that mean I have to organise something?  I've never really been a fan of rap or hip-hop".

Randwick: "Well yeah whatever, my style is more instrumental electronica with endless loops and beats, but yeah, beats, I can work with that".

Big Dog: "Hip hop? That so-called musical genre beloved of scofflaws and the uneducated? Well, here's a message from me, I'll tell you to fuck off for free".


The rap battle will be held at EQ pending final allocation of points and the inevitable draw.

About Team QUON:

Its a FARKING Shambles....... as usual.

Nothing new here, its a shambles. What would you expect?

Only problem is the pigmentation in the hair follicles of the current leader of the point score.

Presidential Style Campaigning

With the final event on this years QUON calendar scheduled and set to take place this weekend, the run for QUON Mastership is still wide open. Add to this the rudderless ship that is the Elders at the moment with reigning QM taking a leave of absence at this, a crucial point in time and fleeing to a neutral country to take refuge.

Someone do something!
Where are the arm flappers?
Will someone save the QUON?
Who will you vote for?
Is there to be an Ollo QUON merger?
What happened to the youth policy?

So many questions, so many people looking for answers, who will you vote for?
