The Andy Smith Conspiracy

Taken from www.gblconspiracies.com.

A new GBL member has been put forward by GM Smart but despite 100s of emails he hasn't responded to one yet prompting a flurry of conspiracy theories from GBL lovers worldwide. So who is the real Andy Smith? Here are just a couple of the conspiracies doing the rounds...

Conspiracy 1:

Is this the real Andy Smith above, GM EMac looking for a way to stay in the comp without the expectations that go along with being an original member and the associated pressure to participate in the email banter and turn up at drafts? EMac leaves and another GM, never before seen by other GMs but displaying the same lack of involvement in the email banter, comes in. Is GM Smart really covering for GM EMac so he can slip into the GBL witness protection program and disappear? Mmmmmm…..

Conspiracy 2:
Have you seen Andy Smith in the same room as this man?

Is Baseline really trying to set up another team under his alias "Mr Smith" (come on Baseline, surely you could have thought of a less obvious front than that) to give himself a double chance to win the title? And how convenient that he is the owner of the NZ energy pills company, knowing that he would win instant respect among most of the GBL population? And then GM Baseline comes out and asks for Andy to be removed from the banter…is he trying to keep his new Andy Smith email account at a manageable level and alleviate the suspicion aroused from a glaring lack of email participation? Something very fishy going on here….

Come clean Baseline!! Who is the real 'Andy Smith'?

Advanced Graphics from AB - 2004


A clear sign of things to come from GM AB who has advanced his scientific approach each year in the GBL. Not much can really be gleaned from his early work pictured here, other than him having too much time on his hands in 2004.

Where for art thou Ferret ?!

They've come from miles around
The brothers in this league
Different paths they've walked
Mixed colour, race and creed

Each season has it's ups and downs
Who'll win? No-one knows
Could someone come from last in the field
Like the greatest Super Impose (that verse is for you Waldy!)

But regardless it's the draft that counts
For the GMs in Melbourne town
The pinnacle of the season
For some it's then straight down

From pass the oxygen to sponge
We've had great moments a plenty
But will this one be the same
With Fredman's seat left empty?

So can't you join us for an hour or two
And skip a bit of supper?
Or you could miss out on another classic
Like AB selecting Victor Khryapa

Baseline broke away
from Brazilian pussy, beans and rice
To dial in for the draft
Not just once but twice!

So how should we speak of GM Fredman
What to say to the fans that adore him?
GMs dial in from the world around
But you can't dial in from Shoreham?

Will this plea bear fruit or fail?
Well only time will tell
But either way remember this
It's the G-B-L!
