That was NOT me, I wasn't even in that game! Not once was I penalized for playing on.

I had one for playing on, but it was because it was on the other side of my warp and there was no way anyone could notice it in game without a ref pointing it out.

well anyway that was a awsome game...everyone played like GODS!

Sorry man, but I wasn't taking about the last game. It was third from last or something, not the last 9 second one, where you nailed Chupas and Scooter/Cootie after they ran through the X.(nice job BTW ) Your whole team charged up the lane where the flag was, to try and steamroll through with the flag, but your guys ran into a wall of paint. You popped up next to a bunker after 3 other guys had been eliminated, and I tapped you shoulder several times, hence the "sorry, skyboy, hope it doesn't bruize" Your team just got whacked that game... nuff said!

Heh. I make one combo move, the entire thing coached by Mok, somehow pull it off (surprised myself!) and now I'm a hero.

Which team were we playing at that time and who'd I gogg? Being the "small, old guy" my memory ain't what it used to be... which wasn't much to begin with...

After a weather induced delay, I got home last night, very tired but filled with lots of great memories of the weekend.

First and foremost, thanks to Curtis & Clare for setting up the event.

Secondly, thanks to Manike for opening his doors and letting a few yanks stay at his "flat." My appologies for the pink bathroom. It was all Load's idea, I swear!

Thirdly, to Muzikman, Adam Shannon and Wonderpug for being the great media machine. Those pics came out great and I can't wait to see the DVD!

It was a pleasure to meet many new AO friends and to put face to name for some older ones.

Some special shout outs-

Scooter & Chupas from Pride- was a pleasure playing against you & look forward to the opportunity of playing on the same side soon. Also, you two were whirly-ball killers.

Manike- For showing us around Deep Ellum and for my special birthday present at Coyote Ugly.

Lance & Mango- as always, an absolute riot.

Mayhem- a pleasure as always. "Dude, it smells like maple syrup!"

Wyn- f'n awesome surprise entrance. Remember, "Midgets make everything better!"

Load- just remember- "You're not hitting anything!"

Adam Shannon- the only man that tried to get us kicked out of EVERY restaraunt in Texas.

Wow! Looks like everyone had a great time both on and off the fields! So when's the next one?

[edweird]

Team 1 brethren: It was a high pleasure and honor to play and coach for a mob of guys such as you. Hands down this has been the single greatest experience of tourney play and I learned more as a player thx to this as well. (btw coaching 23 seconds of dynasty ball was awe-inspreing )

Curtis + Clare: As always you cwazie kids put on a fantastic event... even though we did have a couple snags you guys smoothed it all over and made it all betters. (Curtis) IM STILL LOUDER THAN YOU! (Clare) Our end game 'battles of the mid players' are something that I will always remember... well that and allen putting 2 on your gogs. its okie we still wuv you.

Mangies: Dude as always a it was a riot... from the dorito humping, the zoidberg danceing, to the way to late texmex menu reading its always a highlight to my trip to have someone to get all wyld and cwazy with. JoO Te mi Budgsphay?

Chupas and Scooter: It was an absolute pleasure geling with both of you and making an effective squad with absolutley no friction and absolutley having the best time ever.

Logamius: I dont think we could of drafted a better mid guy to support us... always a pleaure switching up with ya. (and thx for the pods :P)

Team 3Hereby known as "Team fasionably late") It was a absolute grinder playing you all in that last game of day 1. Honestly when you all showed up and got drafted by team 3 I knew we had a a uphill climb ahead of us. It sucked that simon's sholder was bothering him I would of liked to play you all again. In fact Ill take any chance I can get to bird-dog out any of ya again from the coaches bench.

Simon: I was honored to bs with someone with the credentials that you so swavely butcher ppl with. Via our conversations ive gained a new respect/understanding for the big scene event, and was happy to see some of the mechanical geekdom that I hold in its infancy exists in others in a more productive state. Thx for the good times and the heads up about the 720 cameo I made.

The guys from Oakland assassins: I know they might not be on the boards but they may come by to check out the after footage. Thanks for the sideline action and the counter-coaching. I wish we would of had ya for sunday morn as well but lets just say you all were missed.

Skyboy: Last but definatly not least... thanks for being a hella cool roomie for this deal. and lets hear it for the pre 7 pm noise complaint on friday :P

Wellesley Inn and suites: Um yeah thx for putting up with us and all our crazieness.

[Clare]

well that and allen putting 2 on your gogs. its okie we still wuv you.

Hey! You all love to bring that one up to death, huh! How come everyone fails to mention the times I shot him out before he actually shot me in the face? It never would have happened if Curtis hadn't coached me to run up even if I knew that I was going to get shot.

...3. Coaching Cryer in the snake and watching him wreck everyone! (Guess he got the Powerade out of his system)

I had never played snake but maybe a couple of times in misc tournies. Being the designated snake man really turned me on to it tho. I think I found my new home
Thanks for all the great coaching Scott! Ed, Flash, you too!

Yeah, and no more blue power ade for me... at least not in that quantity:op

Texball 2 anyone?

Hell, yeah. I'm there!




In retrospect, if I took one thing from this meet that I feel can be applied at future AO meets, its: Adam Shannon and Darwin shouldnt set next to each other at the dinner table...!

[edweird]

Yeah clare we do like to bring that up...

vs team 3 the chant was "Lane Simon! Everyone lane Simon"

vs you guys on day 2 it was "Shoot em all in the face... shoot clare 2x in the face!" it was more we shocked it actually happened when we directly called for it.

[Load SM5]

What?! I was'nt threating enought for you guys to shoot at me? That hurts. I thought I capped a few people.

ugh, I think the only bad thing about this weekend, is I am now forever known as man-goo. Although funny when mocking mango on the forum, it isnt nearly as ammusing having to introduce yourself like that,...outloud and in person.

"yeah,...Im mangoo,....I have 12 posts"
