Yes! Something to listen to on my commute!

I picked a bad day to forget work headphones.

Can't wait!

I just want to say, i call the PHeaver dream once i saw him play game 1 on the stream.

also pretty pumped i have something to listen to while playing fallout 4

I once dreamed that I beat Paul Heaver once, he looked at me at Worlds, smiled and said.. its never going to happen! LOL

I had a dream I beat Doug Kinney with the list i run now

Vader

crackshot

PRockets

title ATC

Whisper

VI FCS

Captive

ACD

Tempest Squad

title AC

however, i'll never know now... used to see him on vassal a lot. never got to run this list.

Thanks guys. Feels.

I thought of an analogy to better explain what I mean about Nathan. If he would have won on the final table, he instantaneously becomes Harry Potter. He's "The boy who beat Paul." He would be recognized everywhere he goes in this subcommunity of gamers, which he still might but not to the level that it could have been had he beaten he-who-has-won-thrice.

I meant to recommend always bringing cough drops to tournaments on the comments for your last show but never got around to it. Now MJ has paid the price.

Thanks for another show fellas!

It was a price well worth it!

Good call on the cough drops though. I'll try and remember that one in the future.

At least I had plenty of vitamin C beforehand so I didn't suffer the ConCrud this time!

Wait, so I'm Voldemort?!?

We don't say that name.

YOU DO NOT SPEAK HIS NAME! I'm going to go on the safe side and not speak your name either, just in case there are some NOVA death dealers out there.

No, I would never compare your greatness with the greatest of all Dark Wizards. It's not like your name inspires fear in those who would stand against you, across the table. And I've never seen you use the Elder Templates and Sorcerer's dice. And I'm sure you don't meet annually in a secret location to plot the demise of your opponents.

So no, I wouldn't dare compare you to he-who-must-not-be-named, he-who-has-won-thrice.

I think Paul would love his new role as the big scary dark wizard that no one can beat!

Good call on the cough drops. I always take Vitamin C supplements to any major Con, I will have to add cough drops to that list!

This was also our send off to Doug Kinney, stick around to the end to hear his send off commercial...lol

Heh, you guys need to have a look back at some of your answers from Ep 14, one of you managed to guess the right number of ships on the final table at Worlds 2015!

7? That's a random number. You have me curious now, I can't remember at all. I just recall Sean saying something like "4", which would have been a safe bet before TLT came out.

Guesses were 4, 6, 7 and 8 iirc. I'm only just listening to the back catalogue as the episodes are often so long!

I forgot all about THAT! I am doing that right now!

I also wanted to thank ALL of our guest, I basically yanked people right off of the floor to get them in front of the mic!

All of you have been quite inspiring, assuming baby sitting can exist this coming year I really want to experience these premiere events.

Care.com! When we moved to Columbus we signed up for a month, found three good sitters and have been very happy! We have a 'daycare' where my daughter goes during the day (the other three are in school), and we found a weekend sitter for date nights and tournament time!

I hope this helps!
