really great to read this thread! Otherwise i'd barely know what happened at congress, other than my announcements ;) Thanks a lot guys, i'm really glad you all made it! :)

Mike is being very, *very* diplomatic. The list of things i'd fix next time is as long as my arm :D

:lol: I do have a longer list, and I'm still adding to it... but the numbers only go up to 9, so that seemed like a good place to truncate. (Just so y'all know, the vast majority of stuff on my list has to do with my own performance, not Lisa and Andrew.)

It was a pleasure meeting you, Andrew. I admit to still being a bit steamed about packing up the boards in the same room while where people were still playing on them :lol: but I'll get over it... as long as we make sure it never happens again. I think you did a great job with what you had, and earned that certificate Karoline and I pilfered. I look forward to more frisbee in NC. :salute:

Alas! I had hoped it would be one of the... THREE people who were there that have rad dinosaur avatars? Alas, I suppose you could only fit a few dinosaurs into Corwin Hall, anyways.

Anywho, Congress was a blast! I'm sorry I didn't get to meet more of you folks, but I really enjoyed hanging out with everyone I did meet. Beer with strangers that you can reference go stuff to, midnight rengo sessions, crazy self-pairs... a great time, all in all. Not to mention I did a whole problem book by the time I got home. =D Shaddy really inspired me to work on more problems, so here goes nothing!

Also, I like how everyone from the forum seemed to be universally friendly. =D

X2. Despite my intentions to the contrary, you have the only "action shot" of me during a game (at least to my knowledge).
