Thats some pretty funny commentary on my last post there. Live and die by my stats? Take the fun out of wordox? Wordox is already no fun? Sounds like a case of sour grapes to me Chet. Are you mad because you got beaten by a better player ? Are you mad because you are a social room 1 reject that tried to take refuge in a league where players compete for stats and got whipped again ? Reminds me of a few years ago a player got mad at me and called me a shark because i beat her pretty badly in a tourney. I was supposed to take it easy on her because she wasnt as good a player. She didnt want to try to learn from her mistakes or learn new words and improve her strategy but she did piss and moan because i do take the time for all of that. Why? you ask do i take that time? Because i like to play in LEAGUES where people COMPETE and i like to WIN because winning is FUN and losing SUCKS. Does that make me a stats whore? I dont know and dont care beat me if you can :P

One other thing , the comments havent been coming to my email like they should. If they had i would have removed the first one. Are people ashamed to sign their names? Who are you afraid of?

Election ,Ladder - Etc

I dont vote in presidential elections or primaries. My father in law was bragging about Bush and how much cash he has given away for AIDS in Africa etc.... I told him that was one of the main reasons i do not vote. If there comes a candidate who would base his platform on cutting out foreign aid and spending that money in the USA on our legal citizens , programs and infrastructure i would really get involved. That said im done with election crap ;-)

The wordsteal ladder is over 16,000 games played since i started it ..... not bad for a league that "they" said would fold in a month or 2. Tourneys keep on trucking and many more players are doing laddergames. Interleague @ hoyle is moving to Fridays starting march 21. Should be interesting. I had hoped to see it stay on Sats because Friday is more of a family night for me but i wasnt getting in there much anyway or anywhere else at hoyle for that matter. My straight options tourney at 7 pm est is back for the forseeable future , everyone come check us out....
