Re: Missouri Open - July 6th, 2013
I had a lot of fun despite being on a major neg train the entire day. Thank you, Itamar, for arranging this and to everyone who staffed!
Stats: I did notice that our final game is not in. It's the only game when I didn't neg at all is the only reason I even noticed it missing
