Greetings everyone,
Kudos to our boys Jae and WX who finished 1st and 2nd in the
tournament!!!!!!!!! WX had a tremendous qualifying session, but
faltered in the final to Mr. Jae, who led his own impressive
rampant charge to win from the 5th spot. Excellent job to both of
you, buddies. Congrats also to Saffry in breaking the top 10 in a
male dominated (24 males, 2 ladies) event.
Thanks to all of you who supported and played in the tournament. I
hope it was fun for you (besides the oil part) as it was for me to
organise.... except for a couple of hair pull incidents....
Thanks to Deamon for his "door gifts", it was really a very great
gesture, and also to Jordan who helped in no small part with the
organisation. Lastly to Eric and Tom, who helped with the goodie
bag preparation as well.
Although they are most unlikely to read this, I'd also like to
extend a thanks to the manager Pauline, who I thought was a very
good MC, and the rest of Jackie's counter staff for all of their
help.
About the "appalling" lane conditions, and yes, my lane mates had a
very nice time suanning and bashing me about it being my fault..
thanks, I think. I didn't think it was THAT bad, but anyway..
I spoke to the manager about that, and she will look into the
possibility of stripping and reoiling the lanes just for our
tournament before it begins, should we wish to organise one there
again.
Well, in closing, I feel with this experience in hand, I think we
can go on to organise even better tournaments for the forum in the
future. So... who should I pass the torch to? Jordan to me
to....
Btw, please let us know how to collect the photos!
