I used to go into this falafel place, and every time, the guy working there would make a HUGE deal that I came back, give me "my usual" and hook me up with a stack of outdated newspapers and tell me how happy he was that I was back. He did it every time I went there. Even the first. Which didn't even make sense. Pretty sure I was stuck in a time/space vacuum in which I'd always just existed there.

I'd go back to test it, but they're gone now.

I was thinking we could put together LitTrading cards.  Many of them would feature Avery and Dave. 

We're going to have to start keeping some better track of Battle stats.

Utah can you make that The Dave and also make sure to have a Davery card?

My stats are pretty good right now.  I want a trading card...

I used to collect baseball cards.

Davery would be the ultra rare platinum embossed chase card.

@ Utah: My battle stats are 1-1-0. Man, I've been wanting to put that out there. Was waiting for the right moment. Thanks Utah for that moment. LOL

R.Moon is 1-1-0...one win, one loss, zero ties.  Tracking?

Ah, I see. So it should read 1-0-1.

I'm tracking

Perhaps I was asking 3 battles, like youve been in three as opposed to two or four.

avery of the dead's picture
avery of the dead from Kentucky is reading Cipher Sisters March 14, 2012 - 2:31pm

Yeah...similar answer.  I wouldn't say three if I meant four.

Can we focus on the point?  I have been in more battles than anyone!  Except maybe technically David Hanson who was also in 3, but only one was 100% completed.  With a poll and all.
