22 Bladers made it out for the Maryland qualifier today, and not only was it cold and wet - it snowed on us! Unbelievable.
Also unbelievable was the strength of the finals tiebreak today. NY qualifier Sniper, and NC qualifier geetster99 would face off against fellow MD hopeful Stars to see who would claim MD glory. Who would win?
Stars! Congrats man!
Here are the final standings:
1st place: Stars
2nd place: geetster99
3rd place: Sniper
Rounding out the finals were Time and TwistedGuy
See you all next month!

PS - Toronto loves us Maryland Bladers! :p

Actually:

If you guys are going to GBT2, you don't necessarily have to post your combinations. That's what Thunder Dome meant when he said that you might not want to share your customs (IE put yourself at a disadvantage).

The combinations should be posted right after though, of course.

They should be sent to a Committee member now, though, if they don't want them posted right away. Ideally it would be Uwik since he won't be attending/participating in GBT2 (unlike myself or you haha).

Oh my chances of winning.
But yes, for some reason, I forgot that was what we (wanted to) do last year.

ok, you guys are right, we should wait until AN before posting any combos, then after AN we can know the combos, And wow!!!!!!! it's april already!!!!!!! 2014 is going pretty fast, it's already getting close to AN, i'm so excited for AN!!!!!!!!!!!
