For all present, including Bill Miller and Woody Flowers, it has to be the best weekend of our teams history.
In case you're wondering if his affiliation with the winning team is making him inflate his story, it's not.

I thought this game was going to be boring when there were no good robots on the field. Every GKC elimination match changed my mind. This game is fantastic. There are so many dynamics, strategies, breathless moments, and decisions that make every match absolutely intense. This is a smart, simple, yet wonderful game. Get the crappy qualification system out of there (cough cough IRI) and this is my favorite game.

I can't honestly see why I ever liked Lunacy after watching the GKC elims.
