Is this the time that we reveal our secret plan to ensure no UK based player wins the IWF this year ?

One of our occasional wargamers works in security at Dulles airport. He has a list of the good UK players, and some may be suprised to be deported or to be guided to a small room where the rubber gloves will be applied for drugs searches............

If that's relative to the US players that is all of us

What about those of us not arriving via Dulles? I wouldn't want to feel left out.

Well as the list only includes 'good' players you wouldn't need to worry anyway

I thought we had already established that it was relative to Americans, therefore all UK players counted?

Stirring the pot, Mr. Ruddock? Carefully carefully, or the Coors Light Challenge may be ported over to FoG as well as DBM.

hi guys.
ladies first

dave_r · Post by **dave_r** » Wed May 13, 2009 7:25 pm

And why would that be an issue?

I thought you had to lose first?

philqw78 · Post by **philqw78** » Thu May 14, 2009 6:10 am

Go on then, explain. What's the Coors Challenge?

dave_r · Post by **dave_r** » Thu May 14, 2009 7:36 am

If you lose to an American you have to drink a warm can of Coors Light.

He thought he was a wit, but he was only half right.

And anyway, we have Hauber on our side. Briggs, at the least, will be choking down a can of warm swill.
