New Pope is Joseph Ratzinger - from Bavaria

[Topsy 35]

A new Pope has been chosen.

 

You read it here first - who needs CNN, eh? :P

Where where?

[Topsy 35]

In Rome. :blink:

[Why8 1]

Ya, I'm looking everywhere for the news. Where did you see it? :blink:

Sky News has it. There's white smoke but no announcement as yet apparently.

Not on BBC yet but I got the local xiamn radio station by mistake looking for M945.

 

The happy clappies are saying it could be just an hour or so.

White smoke

 

Looks like it was a tie.

 

Hope it isn't Rat-boy. :ph34r:

[Topsy 35]

It's on the telly.

Soz.

Only just happened, we don't know who it is yet.

 

I hope it's not rat-boy, as well.

He will be announced in minutes, not days.

...it can't be!

 

[roots 59]

Please God let it be that Indian guy. :D

[grtho 8]

Oh it's Bayerisch Rundfunk I'm listening to as opposed to that hard core Christian station - but I couldn't tell the difference! :lol:

[Keydeck 9,248]

Here he is...

Habemus papem !

 

It's me, I am the new pope. Bless you all.

[Topsy 35]

They reckon it'll be 30 or 40 minutes before we know for sure whether it's Cheggers, Rat-boy or someone else entirely. So don't hold your breath!

Pope AND Pokemon character. Does it get any cooler than that?

My money's on Ratzinger, Martini doesn't appear to have enough (as much) support.
