-------------------------------1104760958 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Happy New Year to everyone! Well, it's time for me to drop the facade and finally admit the truth to everyone. I have already won this game and, indeed, I am the world champion. Yeah me! Yes, I realize that this may come as a shock to those of you with many more units than me and, in fact, it was difficult for me to believe as well. Shortly before Christmas a friend wrote to congratulate me on my win. I naively responded pointing out that, not only had I not won, the game was not over and, uh, I wasn't, uh, really doing that well. WRONG, she said......and as proof she directed me to the tournament web site, with their results page at: _http://www.worldmasters.net/wm02/showindv.aspx_ (http://www.worldmasters.net/wm02/showindv.aspx) So, to my shock and surprise, I was wrong and apparently all of you resigned without even having the courtesy to tell me. Indeed, I am the World Champion....according to the web site and have been the champion for at least 2 weeks. Wow! I will now start writing my end-of-game emails..... --Bruce P.S. On the minute, teeny tiny, chance that the web site is wrong and we are still playing, I will write the rest of you soon.
