You want those chips, asandir? PM me an address to send 'em to if you do. You other guys can PM me an email address to attribute the amazon gift certificates to.

Something I don't understand, thought I'd ask:

Isn't the third-place prize about 10x more valuable than first!?
I'm a hypocrite because I suggested that all life is sacred and should not be wasted without good reason.

Nah, the chips are outdated - they're the old ones I picked out of my PC when I bought new ones. :)

Aaaaand here we go, it's time for:

*drumroll*

The Round Table Championship Final 2007

Commentator: "The stadium is absolutely packed; around 65.000 people have taken the trip to the Circle of Eternity stadium, and there are still thousands more without tickets, roaming the streets of Wooble, looking for one of the big screens placed in the town squares or a nice pub to watch the match in. We hooked up with a couple of fans earlier to gauge the level of anticipation."'
Fan #1: "Nightmares! Nightmares! We're gonna give you nightmaaaaares!"
Fan #2: "Frosties! Frosties! Give 'em chills! Frosties kills! Frostiees go on! Take the trophy home!"
Commentator: "Nice songs. Now, to the coaches. How do you see your chances tonight?"
Frosties Coach: "Well, if we can get the match into our gear and keep the ball going, as well as keep [indeterminate opposition player] out of the game, we have a good chance of coming out on top."
Commentator: "And what about you, [irrelevant coach name]?"
Nightmares Coach: "Well, I think that we do have a chance; we just have to utilize our strengths and make sure our defenders control [indeterminate opposition player]'s movements. If we can also turn our defensive strengths into decent counter-attacking moves, we can score lots of goals - we've shown that before."
Commentator: "Well, good luck to the both of you, I guess it all comes down to who scores the most goals. The match is on in about half an hour, and after that, Oprah is back with some interesting [indeterminate touching personal story]. Seeya 'round!"

I'll only get over it when I have my championship sitting in my hands.

And in case anyone's wondering where the rest of the team is, I blew it up. Literally.

It's done! (video available on pay-per-view only here)

Frost Fighters - Velvet Nightmares 5-3

In yet another fantastic spectacle, these two decidedly deserving finalists entertained the scores of fans who created the noise and atmosphere on the stadium.

Both teams went out furiously, having the ball knocked back and forth at an alarming pace, forcing the referee to take out his very best as far as speed intervals is concerned. Later on, play seemed to calm down somewhat, but only minutes later the first goal of the match started the whole thing up again. It was the Frost Fighters who scored first, satisfying some of their fans' want for victory. Soon after, however, it was the away team's fans turn to be jubilant, as they scored twice in quick succession before the break. Songs were sung from both sides of the stands as the teams eventually headed to the dressing rooms with 2-2 the score at half-time.

Soon after the break, the Nightmares scored once more, making it 2-3 and their fans glanced the hope of a win and their first trophy. But the attacking prowess of the Frost Fighters soon became apparent as the high pace of the match took its toll on the teams. Fighter captain Elvin himself bagged the first two, making it 4-3 in the second quarter. The fifth of the match was made as if just to prove a point, five minutes from time.

As the losing team headed up the stands to receive their medals they were applauded by fans from both sides, who were grateful for the amount of entertainment the Nightmares had given them throughout the tournament. The real cheer, however, came as this year's RTC champions - the Frost Fighters - stood on the railings with the trophy lifted towards the heavens.

We join in the congratulations. All hail the champions! Applause to the Frost Fighters! :applause:
