Thanks guys. Vegas was a blast. Aside from finally getting to hook up with my OCA brothers in person, I enjoyed the opportunity to bench near and chat with the PURE contingent. Gautam, GHZ, Brian Y and Chris are a good group of guys - and it was nice having Vince stop by for a chat.
Rbuass and the the rest of our Latin American brethren brightened up the room. I doubt anyone could maintain a gloomy outlook in the same room as Rinaldo. His enthusiasm and cheer is downright infectious.

Great job guys. Congrats not to just the guys that won the competition but to all of OCA. Their win makes us all winners. A win in Japan would be huge!
RomDominance
01-09-2011, 01:21 PM
Thanks everyone for their support and kind words. The whole experience was surreal to say the least. The five hours of the contest were literally one of the best bench sessions I have ever had...where luck and experience collide.
Huge thanks to MSI for hosting an epic contest from start to finish, utter proffesionalism and top notch preperation.
All of OCA should be proud as our representatives in this event were simply the classiest, best prepared competitors there. Nice work mates.
Special thanks to Al, no words man.
RomDominance
01-09-2011, 01:41 PM
Thanks Scotty! it was a blast. Helen from MSI is the best, and all of the MSI staff were outstanding,...amazing event.

George, the qualifying event was an open online qualifier. Splave won the X58 pi 32M qualifying event to get to the competition.
