Sherlock Wants Vengeance...FROM CAPTAIN KIRK (Star Trek Trailer!)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=diP-o_JxysA

Thoughts, anyone? (I'd almost say it sounds like they're doing the first Trek episode with Kirk, "Where No Man Has Gone Before" and just making Gary Mitchell British...hmmm...)

Crap, one four-way draw and I'm down to 5th place, that sucks, guess I should have taken the time to kill off redhouse...

Jamiet99uk (873 D)
03 Dec 12 UTC
I just thought it would be funny to put in a real player's name and see if anyone noticed. I don't think MadMarx is actually a ghost, but I also think it's clear MadMarx gets the joke, which is more than can be said for Mapu. Oh well.

Tasnica (3366 D)
04 Dec 12 UTC
Accomplishments I am proud of:

-Number 16 on GR! Hell yeah!
-I finally broke the Top 50 for All Time GR. Also, hell yeah! And I'm the newest (by join date) player of the Top 100 All Time.
-And finally, Number 12 for WTA! I definitely have the World Cup game to thank for that.
Mapu (362 D)
04 Dec 12 UTC
Tasnica -- congrats! That is really great. And having played with you, it is well deserved. You are a hard-working player.
Skittles (1014 D)
04 Dec 12 UTC
Thanks Adlerian!

Top 50 in all categories, and top 30 in gunboat. I had a great month, and not every month is going to be this good. Let's see if I can keep improving!
Skittles (1014 D)
04 Dec 12 UTC
Also, congrats Tasnica! Great accomplishments. I don't believe I've played with you before, but hopefully I will sometime.
ghug (5068 D(B))
04 Dec 12 UTC
I like when Tasnica's GR goes up, it means I'm only a few draws away from a sizable bump. Congrats!
Tasnica (3366 D)
04 Dec 12 UTC
Skittles: Indeed! And I definitely remember your name from the list. You were one of the players who prevented me from saying that I was only "new" player in the Top 50 Regular GR. ;)
Tasnica (3366 D)
04 Dec 12 UTC
Ghug: Lol. Clearly that doesn't apply when I am Austria. ;)
ghug (5068 D(B))
04 Dec 12 UTC
That game really ruined everything, didn't it. It's probably because I wasn't supposed to be in that game, and I was surrounded by your Californian co-conspirators. :P

Not a bad month.. gunboat went up at least. I dropped a bit in press but I expected it after all the solos I had last month o_O
Finally broke top 100. Woot.
2ndWhiteLine (2611 D(B))
04 Dec 12 UTC
Ugh...TERRIBLE month...an awful JCB series, only a few live games to boot, and I took a tumble. Dropped out of the top ten in gunboat, which was to be expected, but somehow rose in live game GR, though.
redhouse1938 (429 D)
04 Dec 12 UTC
Mario Chalmers, on the other hand.. ;-)

Wanna play in my new game 2WL?
2ndWhiteLine (2611 D(B))
04 Dec 12 UTC
Talk about adding insult to injury :) But don't worry, I'll be back up after my current crop of games. Link, redhouse?
I played fewer games last month (3) than any other month since I've joined... also had my best result. Almost in the top 100. Sure to fall next month, there's a lucky solo propping up my GR from this month that won't be repeated...

Perhaps more surprising is that I played no live games or gunboats last month. That surely has to change.
