The forum will be well represented...
I started training this weekend, first curve games in months. Got slaughtered 10-0 in the first game by Pete, someone who has played about 10 games in the last 10 years. I did shutout Jason 7-0 yesterday though, so things are looking up. I'll be ready...
A grand total of 10 players from the RBI forum isn't bad at all. Nearly 1/3 of the participants post on the forum. That's a fairly good representation.
Good to hear you're practicing again Gantry.

I've played 103 games against my roommate this semester so I'll be ready for the tournament. See you all there.
That is most impressive... Better get a few more games under my belt, don't want these youngsters making a fool of me...
So? Who won?
IIRC I lost the first round, second game because I was down 1-0 and the NES reset. Won a game in the loser's bracket and can't remember if I lost again or just went home. HTH
