This is it! Really guys, I was expecting *much* more spotlights! These days, it's so hard to win with a less than perfect spotlights and ads. Last TOGS, me and my partner had about over 70% W/L percentage for both of us, and near perfect spotlights and ads and we still lost. The top 3 teams were all over 70% W/L record.
Anyway, not a good start for Creepy and Manager. Well, it would have been a good start for me, but I had two warriors killed in the tourney. The thing was, I even planned to lose warriors in the tourney. I had my tourney overnighted and requested Aradi run last (which wouldn't be a problem with TOGS going on I was told) so that if I lost any in the tourney I could emergency fax my replacement and strategy in to make it for Turn #1. (And with the other MI Parties not taking place until Saturday--they wouldn't get their dead replacements in of they lost any!)
Yet, the stupid scum thing and my basic tourney not being in printed in time for overnight sabotaged even the perfectly laid plans! Why does my scheming work all of the other time and then fails right during TOGS?

Oops, about my spotlight, I want to apologize to Ultraist for calling him Delarquan. I know he's a Free Blade, but for some reason it just slipped my mind when I was writing.

I didn't have a particularly good first turn of the TOGS. But, my partner debuted at 5-0-2. Unfortunately, one of his kills was my warrior that just got a TV!

Then make sure you kill his warrior on the 4th turn of bloodfueding! That will really teach him a lesson!

These first 3 turns after the Mailin always suck.. sort out the ones that went long from the ones that didnt.. Then things get interesting..

Bleh. 3-2-0 first turn. But at least I got my spot and ads in!
I also thought it was funny I was the most avoided team. Kinda funny to see 4k Blows running from a stable of geriatrics (I manage AARP)! Way to go, Nuln!! I know it was difficult to dodge my warriors, especially in their walkers!!
A fine, and FUN, contest indeed!

I shouldn't do this, because the bastard killed my flagship warrior, but here you go Dead Stud "A Column of Smoke" was the spotlight for My Best Buds 2. Just trying to help because I forget to "pen" it and the team name is only mentioned once in the spot, somewhere in the middle.
I'm hoping for a input error because that was a stud ST, if not I'll reveal the #'s just to prove it!

I couldn't resist putting 100 bucks on myself and Jiles, considering the odds. Unfortunately, I don't have the Horses. My preparation was suspect, to say the least. Oh well, thank goodness I have Suave ghost-er-I have all this spare time to write spotlights...

I have a distinct feeling I had a DA bound warrior wihing 2 turns. .gotta stop the bleeding somewhere.
Turn 1 and already thinking about stopping the bleeding. Hmm better go back and re-learn what it was that made me keep them to begin with.

WHAT? I'm not freeblade!!
Hey, that's our fine partner, you are "questioning"!
Besides, no one who has played Wildcat football can be considered Delarquan, can they?
