I havea feeling that the ICBM Open will be some of the fiercest competition we have seen in years. For so long we've been so secluded in our respective metagames - the far Midwest of Wisconsin area, the Ohio area, the Northeast/New England Contingent - and now they're all comming together to play for some serious prizes.
There are a lot of people out there that won't be able to hack it in such an environement. Of course I'm talking about the players that aren't on Meandeck. It's a terrible shame that I haven't had the time to drive all the way out to Milwaukee to take your other prizes, but rest assured that at the end of the weekend, those two Lotuses are going home with us (and probably a couple of the other pieces, too).

Smennen looks smooth in his bow tie, but who's the girl? I didn't know Meandeck even knew any girls. |

That would have been better if you had one of those old Meandeck team photos with Kevin and JP and Carl in them. I was frankly disappointed when I saw that was just some random asian dudes. I was expecting Steve's face pasted over one of them at the very least.

There's a Paintshopped line over "Retards United" and the text "Meandeck" added in below it. This is to subtly say that Meandeck are a bunch of retards. Also, Doug Linn was said to be the female Asian in the picture. It works because his last name is "Linn" and equating a man with a female is a jab at his masculinity. Also, the background color is pink. Come on man, we're Magic players not comedians. Are you here to trash talk or psychoanalyze? |

I'm just throwing this out there, $20.00 to whom ever decides to take soly's challenge and can make him cry for mercy. Ben could just make top 8 enter a steel cage and duke it out for the power, Welcome to Thunderdome bitch!  Either way, this event is going to be insane. |

I was really hoping that Ben would have got this judge.  Then we could have a match between Smemmycakes and Kermit the Shay to find out who single-handily rescued Time Vault from oblivion. My money would go on Shay since he has that white kung-fu suit. |

Smennen looks smooth in his bow tie, but who's the girl? I didn't know Meandeck even knew any girls. Its an old photo from before JDizzle left the team. Bulls suck. Cubs suck. Sox suck. Bears suck. This event sounds like it is going to be a blast! I am making arrangements to make the trip out. See you guys there! |
