Hmm... I've been keeping an occasional wary eye on the Clare gunging procedings... What exactly determines who gets gunged though?

Well for RAG week they said #1 to nominate people and 20p to vote, whoever got the most votes got gunged. I think the winner ended up with about 40 quid worth of votes. Bare in mind though, it's not actually the law that random mobs can defile you =P Which is why despite my getting votes you'd never see a custard covered alex jumping into the cam :wink:

You'd back out? I'd have thought it is probably a (slightly strange) mark of popularity if you get gunged. (Though I'd still avoid it at all costs)

Yeah, bit of a spoil sport, but by some accounts it wasn't exactly told to him in a good way and he wasn't given the chance to buy his way out of it. So it's a kinda dubious one.

Only by Clare people, there's various other things that go on, I'm sure other colleges gunge themselves, as it were.

Yeah, he refused to come out, admittedly the people trying to fetch him weren't very helpful, but it still made him look more of a nob than he already did (he's not one of my favourite people).

This year the cousins of one of the nominees put about £20 down for him to get it, but somehow someone else won in the end anyway :rolleyes:

Yes. But if it happened, and I won, I'd take it. Complain for about a year afterwards, but I'd do it.

Because that won't look suspicious in any way, shape or form, and the bar staff won't ask why the hell both of you want to do this...
