@Tom- haha that reminds me of when I went to IGC 2 years ago with a big head (way bigger than I deserved)... I got off the plane and someone asked me if I was Andy Schatz. I was flattered and said "yes I am, how do you know about me, my game?" And he said, "no, your laptop was broadcasting your name over the entire plane. You should really secure that network."The point being, don't namedrop me. It won't get you anywhere ;)

HAHA I love star whoring, but no, I definitely seems to have pissed off some people because I tend to get modded down every time I post. No biggie, makes me chuckle ;)

It's me who's 1 starring you. I have 1000 fake GG accounts that I started just to 1 star people. It's a hobby. You have to have a hobby. If you don't have a hobby... well then you have to have a life. Screw that!
Seriously, congrats and don't forget to thank God at some point... he really likes being named in award cerimonies... makes him feeling important in the grand scheme of things.
