Congrats! But you should still play. I may have to bot it for the first 30 minutes tonight, if no one objects. Otherwise, I’ll just skip tonight. ---

I don’t have any problem with that, **DO**. And **Nanook** , I don’t remember if you made this announcement before, but congrats! I remember **OMD** saying he was getting hitched next spring IIRC. Now’s your chance to put your foot down and say, “Honey, would it be OK if I played poker for a little while tonite?” 😛 Hope to see everybody there tonite! ---

> [@Duke of Rat](#): > > And **Nanook** , I don’t remember if you made this announcement before, but congrats! I remember **OMD** saying he was getting hitched next spring IIRC. June, yes. Bad news is that our venue only allows rehearsals on Thursday nights, so if the games are still going on next June, there’s one I’ll miss. I’ll be there tonight. Dial-up instead of DSL for the time being, but the connection seems solid enough. ---

\*Dag\_Botto, I wouldn’t expect anything less from you…go right on ahead and show up late. (I know, \*Yetibot is a hypocrite! :rolleyes: ) I want to sign up for the game now, but I don’t see it listed yet. ---

Amazingly close. Nesta needs one more game however to qualify. Duck and I are roughly the same distance apart. ---

Only 4 more games till the end of the quarter and it looks like 8 of us are still in the hunt for first, (including that sneaky little bastard **Nesta** ). I think this is the best horse race yet. ---

I’m going to go out on a limb and predict a second-place finish for myself. ---

I guess it’s time for me to sneak in at the last minute and hope for a good showing. I wish I’d been able to make it to more games this quarter. [sub]grumble grumble work schedule grumble[/sub] ---
