I took the churches that reached the semi-finals of each of the previous four competitions, seeded them based on where they ultimately placed, and created this: Jay's Ultimate Church Competition.
Prepare for absolute CARNAGE.
Prepare for absolute CARNAGE.
Here's how it's going to go down:
Each church gets a tweet containing four photos, after the photos there will be a poll.
You all already have strong feelings about all of these churches and I encourage you to express them.
Do not try to cheat with bots this time.
Lets FIGHT.

Awkward reminder: there's a plague on and I'm one of those people who work in the arts whose jobs have been decimated, so if you're enjoying this, or if you enjoyed the previous ones, then you can chuck me a small tip at https://ko-fi.com/jayhulme - but only if you can afford to.
