    Just had telephone call from number one son.

    It went like this.

    LIMP2LOSE:

    "Dad, I just got a msg in chat from MonkeyGLB, about playing my heads up match. Thought I told you I didn't want to enter it"

    STAYORGO:

    "I didn't enter you in it"

    LIMP2LOSE:

    "So why does MonkeyGLB think we have to play each other"

    STAYORGO:

    Cos he thinks you are IrishRose in disguise!"

    LIMP2LOSE:

    "What, where did he get that from"

    STAYORGO:

    "No idea son! lol"

    LIMP2LOSE:

    "LOL, well wish them both the best of luck anyway. Will Monkey be able to find the right table OK? :=)"


    --------------------

    CLASSIC!

    Your poor son - I couldn't think of a worse insult to him even if I pondered for a month :)  

    As for Thursday Gary - it's a date!!   Just hope you're ready to donate your next £40 to the pot as it's 4 games you only need to win this week :)

    I know Rose works quite late, but she should be back by 8.30pm, so I'm sure she will reply as soon as she gets in.

    GL both!

    UL Rose, what a great run though, and congratulations on winning the Ladies "Last Longer" trophy and also £50 for your chosen charity!

    Congratulations Gary and thanks again for the extra donations.

    Thanks to your extra donations, we have been able to give the losing semi-finalist's charities £50 each, and currently have £350 left in the prize pool for 1st and 2nd.

    My proposal is to award the winning charity £210 and the runner up £140.

    May I suggest Gary, that any additional donations you make for games won in the final, go to your charity regardless of whether you win or lose.

    This seems the right thing to do, as you have kindly donated so much.

    Best of luck to you and AJ in the final. Is there any chance that you guys can play it this weekend?

    Remember it's BEST OF NINE (So first to five, but must win by two clear games.) If by some chance it gets to 9-9 then it becomes sudden death.

    Cheers,

    G

    Sunday at 8.30pm will be ok with me Monkey lad,
    If the birthday bash goes over schedule don't worry,
    It would be good to get it all done for this w/end  
    If not, any night next week wll be fine.

    I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you, 
    for your additional donation to the charity prize pool
    An added £10 for every game you win.
    Very generous of you, Monkey lad, so thank you

    The good news is that, emeraldrose, and fishmatt,
    both got an £50 for there charity's, thanks to your generosity.

    But the good news does'nt end there Monkey lad.
    The final is best of 9 games,
    so as soon as i get to 5 it's all over.
    Which means it'll only cost you £5.25 
    You see Monkey lad, what I'm saying is, 
    you wont have to cough up any more £10 notes for wins

    See you Sunday Monkeyboy
    Game on.

    Regards Alan (plo8 super champ)

    I like the confidence but I have already put aside the additional £50 for the final and also made plans for after our match @ 9:15!! Assumed that would be about right :-p 

    Best of luck though in the final and looking forward to it

    Very best of luck to you both.

    Outstanding effort by the pair of you to get this far.

    Both your names/alias's will be engraved on the trophy as it is engraved with the winner's name, along with the score and alias of the opponent in the final.

    For example: PLAYER_A beat ALIAS_B 5-3

    But of course there can only be one victor!

    GL GL!

                              HU Charity Final Tonight 8.30pm

                                     The Monkey v the chimp

                                     **A match not to be missed**
     
    Why not come on the rail,
    and cheer on or even  bok, or mock, your fav player.
    It should be a very entertaining game,
    with good banter from both sides

    Of course as Graham mention in an earlier post,
    There can only be one victor
    (so early commiserations to monkey lad)
    who will you be rooting for, the Monkey or the Chimp.
    See you there don't be late.

    Regards Alan (plo8 champ, ukops plo8 champ, future charity hu champ)

    ** Please note I have used the word chimp instead of champ
    because there is a very old bloke that i play against in plo8
    and quite often he will type  in the chat box "Hi Chimp"  
    instead of champ, obv's a typo on his part 
    but I didn't want to confuse the old guy, 
    just incase, he reads the thread.
