    Sure thing. That just adds more epicness when we do finally meet on the field of battle
    The purpose of a fish trap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught, the trap is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to.

    Needless to say that you can play against me in normal matches.

    I think I still have to play Xiahou and Andres. I'm kind of busy this weekend but I should be fairly free for the rest of the week(except for turkey day of course). Just PM me with what days/times you guys are available and I'll try to work something out.
    Why did the chicken cross the road?

    So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
    but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
    chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli

    I am attempting to slay the dragon, Stephen Asen, in a second rematch. He won the first two games.

    I'm not in your tournament, and he'll likely beat me again, but I think I have a chance.

    :prays:

    EDIT
    Reminder that I'm available in case some of your more absent players continue their... absentness.
