Hello all

As you may know, we do like a bit of healthy competition here at MNHQ, and Shrove Tuesday seemed as good an opportunity as any to sort the wheat from the chaff. Come and watch our Mumsnet Big Toss video and tell us who you think wins the toss - based on ambition, style, grace or determination. Alternatively, tweet us @MumsnetTowers using #MMBigToss - and do share far and wide if you like it!

@LadyBeagleEyes

I think Justine because she did that twisty thing.

Exactly!

@NymodigFruOla

Sue - a perfect 10!

Ban her!

@LadyBeagleEyes

I think Justine because she did that twisty thing.

It's like comparing a single lutz with a triple salco.

I might have to vote for SarahMumsnet as she's looking a bit Sad

JustineMumsnet · 04/03/2014 15:40

But no, actually, my toss was better...

@NymodigFruOla

Of course Justine is the boss!

Now you're talking...

[quote NymodigFruOla]I, too, am comparing this to ice-dancing.

Sue = Torvill & Dean = neat = perfect 10

Twizzley people = style but no substance

Thank you NymodiFruOla, that's very kind. Also, your courage in posting this is noted ;-) You are a true defender of the arts.

Quite.

@ghostinthecanvas

Got to be Justine. Interesting twirl. (was that a Scottish accent? Not biased Wink )

It certainly could be ghost (or indeed welsh, irish, scouse, geordie if that's a vote winner...)

@OwlCapone

And if Tech is in there, will he bring down the whole site if it doesn't go whichever way he wants it to go?

Which is definitely my way. Good point Owl.

Er can I make a request that some UN election monitors are called in? It seems to me that some intimidatory tactics are being used on this thread...

I've just been sacked on twitter for this but #AmyToWin

But you're all wonderful tossers Grin

Can I just point out that AmyMumsnet is in fact the only entrant with direct access to a ban hammer.

I've just banned you!

MNHQ

AmyMumsnet · 04/03/2014 17:07

Would I get fired for real for banning Justine?

Would it be worth it to raise the tossing trophy in triumph?

@MalcolmTuckersMistress

Justine of course because she's bribed me. That is a lovely technique!!

Thank you Malcolm - I'll get right on the other thing [taps nose].

@JuniperTisane

Justine's toss is very extravagant and wildly flung. I'm dubious that the pancake she caught is actually the same one she sent up Hmm

Sue's toss was neat.

Amy's was quietly confident

Sarah comes across as a professional tosser though so she gets my vote.

Shock What are you implying Juniper?

@HannahHorvath

Sue because I was transfixed by her b@@bies...

... but if we're going on tossing alone. Then clearly Justine is the winner.

Aren't we supposed to consider difficulty level? Justine's was by far the most challenging attempt. Beautifully executed with flair and finesse. It's a 10 from me Bob.

does Justine have a background in Javelin - if so that is kind of cheating

At last! A connoisseur.

AmyMumsnet · 05/03/2014 09:10

I didn't know there'd be extra points for flair - I would have brought my sparklers along otherwise.

I woz robbed.

@everythingiknow

You're all awesome tossers (in the best possible way...) Grin MNHQ must be the most fun office to work in, I bet you spend all your time laughing....

Justine, you were amazing, but you are The Boss (and obviously a good one, not a tyrant) therefore you'll have the magnanimity to allow one of your underlings to succeed (therefore gaining even more loyalty and adulation points all round...)

Oh bugger, spose you're right [sulks]
