Hi All.

The grit is over and the white has been called. I think now would be a good time to 'host' the new problems awards.

A time to review the latest barrel scrapings from the peak and wider

I will tentatively suggest the categories of

1) Best new at grade
2) Best problem name
3) Worst problem name
4) Worst new problem
5) Most arbitrary link up

I would like to nominate my very own 'All gorilla no filla' for 1) due to stunning critics reviews from UKC such as "shouldn't be a problem"

I’ll go first and also nominate my own climb for best name. Carlos Torque!

Although I know competition is strong especially against bonjoy!

I rise to the occasional and nominate Bonjoy's Climby Fissure

Jim's "Father I Compress"

Best new problem overall has to be 'one redeeming feature'
Best name?....Ned and shoulders.

Best problem I've seen is Mark20's "Consumed" at Standing Stones - proper highball, perfect rock, blindingly obvious, really precarious and techy. Only downside is it's quite morpho.

[Ross Barker]

I thought Summit From Nothing is a clever name for such an longstanding LGP.

Years of perception by Aidan at the stone.

I believe Dan V had tried it a long time ago, not sure how much, but it was named as it was one of his projects? And because its right next to ears of perception. Anyhow I liked the name alot.

Cheers. Kind of relies on a basic knowledge of 80s pop cheese.

Jim's "Father I Compress"   

Agreed. Easily the best named problem.
