gustuphson Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Great job! I had a blast trying out the casting analyzer. Going over the results was a little like visiting the Doctor though, hoping that the news isn't too bad Quote
birchy Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 I'm such a nice guy I thought to myself.. "you know, I don't want anyone to have to suffer the embarrassment of finishing LAST place in the casting competition... I know what I'll do, I'LL enter it!" Quote
birchy Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Was also nice to meet some board members! H20, Bhurt (finally), ggp, and alhuger to name a few.. Quote
bhurt Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Was also nice to meet some board members! H20, Bhurt (finally), ggp, and alhuger to name a few.. Well I wish I could of avoid you birchy (lol, just joking) I personally didn't try the casting analzer as I didn't really want to know how crappy my single hand casting was, lol Anyways second year I have gone there and won a new Rio Gold line that I am ding to try out, only thing is I got to find where I put it. My room looks like a atomic bomb went off in there and who knows where it could be, but I am sure I will be able to find it son. It was also great to meet ggp (even though it was breif) Quote
