From dead last to only second

Andscacs was seeded third and finished second. Had to do it the hard way though.

Hi Graham,
TLCV is very nice, I watched the games live, whenever possible.
Btw, I am happy with the results, because I was not sure about
the performance of DisasterArea at LTC.

DisasterArea coped okay in this division, so well done.
TLCV is great. Only trouble is that many have trouble accessing it.
