Speaking of which, why did you only sign two of my Predicts? Because you only won two Predicts--First Place got four. I added an extra two because you're awesome! - BardoOhhh, ok.

The tournament begins in 10 minutes. Anyone have a line on anyone there? I have JD's number, but I don't think he really knows me (I just snagged it off his profile).

14. High Tide will take first place. 15. The winner will be: Kevin Binswanger. (Specific player name) I don't know if the two of you made the cut-off. It'll take a ruling from Matt, but I'm sure he'll allow it since no results have come in. At any rate, I'm flattered, but I don't have Tide built, and am several states away in any case.

I've got Matt Abold's (bigbear102 on the Source). He took the trip down with Herbig, so I told him to keep me posted. I also think he'll be able to access the internet when the tourney is done, so he can post results.

Don't feel too flattered  I didn't know the names of great American players. I just filled in your name, since you were the only one of which I knew the real name.

Bardo: 24 points - First place I am a Winnar! Bask in my 1337ness!11! Since I have plenty of Mental Notes, gustoh, PM me your mailing address and I'll get out a minty signed Note to you. Hopefully you play Thresh or 1.x Tog. Alternately, you could just put a Bardo-signed Mental Note onto eBay and make a small fortune. More or less.

Happy now? In any event, I still want my card from Matt. And no, I don't want my signed Predicts back!  What a weird way to trade cards... What post did you delete? Probably some of my junk in the LA Lounge. In any event, I'm sure I'm on target for getting banned for spamming the bloody hell out of the Storage Tank (where deleted posts go). For anyone else reading this that doesn't know what I'm talking about: I have exactly 1337 ("leet" in leatspeak) posts, but I need to delete one of my posts for every new post I make, lest I go up to 1338 and lose my "1337ness"). And yes, it's really a pain in the ass to keep on track... - BardoIf I delete your "posts", do I get warned? What if I post like this? - (not) Bardo
