Looking at the confirmed list, you'd get you ass kicked.

Well Casey is there I do respect him...I still cannot believe that pin beat him in the finals. Casey could give me pause the rest...
I Know Bad boy I just can not resist trash talking.

Well, I have a theory on what happened there.
Casey was counting on Pin playing the same way he's played every game--meaning not paying very much attention.
Pin, knowing Casey would be thinking that, anticipated his move (or in this case, his not moving) and took advantage of his slightly less than 50% chance of displacing him off the board.
Pin also has another huge upset of Casey...at TotalCon several years ago. Pin and I were so drunk we could barely stand, and Casey needed a match to qualify for the next round of some tourney, so Pin played him.
Totally wiped Casey off the map.

Well when I went up against Casey I was at the top of my game the couple of times I made mistakes ( misread map and parked myself in the wrong spot) I was not hit so that was not a factor. I exchanged some IMs with Casey after the match because of remarks BWDemon made. ( If HE ever goes against me I will have him for lunch!) I kept quiet about what we discussed because he was still going and I did not want to blow his tactics. He knew immediatly that I was going to be flying all over and he would have horrable TNs so the first thing he did was dump his MRM ammo because he knew that weapon would never hit me and figured correctly that I intended to try to hit his ammo bays. I was in for a rude shock when I punched into that enpty bay. he told hme I had him nervous the biggest factor was when I lost the hip actuator but . He beat me bacause he used sound tactics and stratigy. There were no mistakes i can point to and the hip was an unfoutionate event but not what I would call bad luck. Casey fought well and won because he did....that is all.

My normal style of play is fairly conservative, and I learned a while ago, that if I play Casey like that, he wipes the map with me. We used to play all the time until he moved to Virginia.
So, now when I play him, I play as aggressively as I can, and I think it surprises him a bit. I also believe he was on travel during our last battle, so I gambled that since he was a tad hot, he might try to hide behind the hill. I really didn't expect him to remain there, but figured the odds might be with me. In a long term match of those two mechs, I figured he stood a good chance of winning.
Still trying to get a kitchen pass!

So far the menu consists of :
2 types of Grilled Marinated Pork Tenderloin: Italian style and Apple Bourbon.
Cheeseburgers
Coleslaw
Locally grown Corn on the Cob
Rolls
Assorted sodas and bug juice
I'm asking everone to bring something to snack on while we play, ie: chips,pretzels,fruit,donuts.
If anyone is a vegetarian, LMK and we'll come up with something.
