The end is nigh for Banter, so why not spice it up by letting us suggest some challenges for the banter people to do. Get listing challenges just in case....

i saw some guy doing that the other day. he was dressed as superman and kept jumping out in front of cars.
i had thought about dressing up as a superhero during one of the fire alarms during my stay at the church of ireland centre (halls of residence at Queens university). they tested the alarm at about 6 in the morning. my intention was to dress up as a superhero, then run out the back of the place, round the block, and back to the front of the place, to make it look as if a) i'd been out all night fighting crime and b) that i was there to save the day. i couldnt be bothered making a costume, so instead i walked out wearing a 3 piece suit.
ideas (like the good one above) are welcome. of course, the scumbag panel need to approve them, and we cant include them all (the list is already nearing 700 challenges). though if there are a couple that we really like, we can certainly include them. currently there are a few more that will be added eventually, but at the minute we are deciding on points allocation (eg do 88mph in a Deloreon, and make your own clothes (from raw materials). but feel free to suggest stuff - we are very open to suggestions.

whilst looking up how much it would cost to swim with dolphins today (true), i discovered a site that you could possibly get ideas for more things to do. though the list itself is already huge, so new ideas need to be good. www.43things.com/

Why is the end nigh for Banter? What a load of rubbish. It's only just warming up! Just wait and see, warrior man, because the best is yet to come - and when it does, the earth will shake!
