I'm going to sticky this for a few days.

[Jake Gittes]

Love it. Loved the game just as much as the first time. Now if only I could take my Top 12 from last year and put it together with my weekly/SOTM/preseason stuff from this year in a single summer... but, that's for the next BSG, for which I'll sure as hell be back.Huge congrats and respect to Fake for being so insanely consistent, to Baumer for the same thing and for beautifully organising and running the whole thing once again, and thanks to everyone else for some strong competition. It was terrific.

[baumer]

Thank you for playing a great game Jake. You were up and down a few times and I think you are a very strong threat to win it all next year. You are that good a player.I will have a full recap done when I have some time later tonight. I'm at work right now, so look for it in about 6-8 hours time.

[rockNrollaDIM]

Woohooo! 26!!!

[baumer]

Woohooo! 26!!!

You are a terrific player as well. You just ran out of time this year. But I know you are a threat to finish top 5 as well.

[baumer]

Yea, sorry bud. TDKR hitting 85 mill in UK let 24 to catch you. Still, 4th spot is awesome. You have nothing to be sad about.

[JCS]

Looks fun, will definitely do the next possible game, which is next summer I guess?

[baumer]

Yes. I need a full 8 months to recover.

Yes. I think 2 years ago there was a Winter's Game, but that never returned. Edited September 4, 2012 by CJohn

Yes. I think 2 years ago there was a Winter's Game, but that never returned.

I can't do 2 games. It's too time consuming and frustrating for me...lol.I'd love to have someone else run the winter game. I could be executive producer and creative consultant, but someone else has to be the director and star.

[narniadis]

Thanks for all the hard work B! It was a lot of fun and I look forward to next summer as well

Are we all eligible to join next time?Really wish you could do a Winter Game Baumer.

Everyone can join. I can't do a winter game. It's really a lot of work and I honestly don't want to do it for 8 months out of the year. But like i said, someone else can do it and I could help. I just don't want to be the go to guy.

[Sims]

1,500 lousy points. Urrrrrrrrgh.

[baumer]

Sims:You did very well this year too. Yes, 1500 points from top 10 is frustrating but you were a player, a very good one, all year.

[Sims]

Thanks baumer. I'll somehow move on with my life. Congrats to you, 24Lost, and above all Fake.

[acsc1312]

Hmmmm don't tempt me with running a winter game. I'll think about it

The thing is, if someone does it, it has to go up within a week or so. There isn't a lot of time to get it organized.
