Sure, but what is 'u mad' mean? That's pretty much what I said. Is something making you upset?

your translating bakekoq right. :tmbup:
Think of it as small talk, making conversation and what not
Rephrasing bakekoq statement: Wow that must be an annoying thing to deal with.

I like karaklis' idea of a 1/2 weekend tournament. Why not have a European zone tournament and an America's zone tournament, to avoid the timezone problems? The regional winners could play each other, if desired. You could even have an APAC zone tournament, if there are enough keen members from that area.
