I have walked up on the stage (last year as a member of the
winning team) and it feels very, very good. Those who think
it a 'waste of time' for the competition winners to go up front
should keep in mind that those who didn't do
well this year could end up being the winning teams (or
alliances) next year. The year before we won, we were 1 and 2
in the competition. The year before that we were 0 and 2.
Our team has been at both ends of the competition results list,
and I still think that at least the winning team(s) should
go up there. I felt that way even before I had
the chance, and I still do, only more so, now that I have
'been there.'

As far as the time constraints, there were some
speeches, most of which could have been a little shorter,
and the ceremony could have started a little earlier. With
the winning and finalist teams seated near the stage as
they were this year, it would not have taken very long for
the team members to get to the stage.

: Nate,

: Have you ever walked up on stage??

: That feels good. I gotta say...

: It’s just not the same seeing someone go up there and get YOUR award for you. I know it sounds selfish, but it just feels so good.

: Why don’t we ask the winning teams how they felt? How ‘bout it guys?
