I'm so glad that everyone got along and there was no tension. I could tell by the feed on the first day that everyone was cool. Thats the way it should be. I was put back by the sceen of everyone there being nice to each other. Even Chew looked civilized. On the first day he was alll over the OCA table. I think he likes RomDom. He kept checking out his butt.

I must say, after watching Chew eat that Hogie or grinder, whatever it was, I can see where he got his alias. I hope i never have to witness that again.

Bren, Al and Joey. Thanks for the good showing. I am proud of you. you guys Rock.

It looked like a blast, with the exception of all that loud shit going on in the background...

I'm sure everything was made all the nicer by all involved getting along. I didn't see any beer or nekkid women there, but oh well....

Good morning OCA! A brief update is in order. After the comp ended, we went to "Bone Daddy's" for dinner for the third night in a row lol, then went back to the hall for a late night bench session...not much luck, no good OS's to be found. Quit at 3:30 am, slept for two hours, then flew out at 7. Thanks so much to big Al and huge thanks to Joey for helping us and getting us wherever we needed to go, it was truly an honor to work with both of you. Got some great pics to post when I get home later today. Thanks to all of you for all your support. Ttyl8r ;-) ps. Thanks to my wingman Dentlord for droppin me at the airport on such little sleep, your the best bro!

Very nice! I love to see a good comp without the DRAMA attached to it. OCA rules!

Ok doods here are some of the pics I promised. The more sensitive ones can be found in the sanctum.

Definitely want to thank the gang at Asus, most notably Brian, V2V3, Darth Beavis, Chew and Kaboom. They really went out of their way to make us feel welcome and had no problem with including our Dentlord in everything (even though we just decloaked him there with no notice). Great crowd, great benchin environment, total class acts and a blast to be part of.

Brian Y and Chris (Gomeler) where very cool customers and class acts. There were helpful and friendly, seemed like we had benched together a hundred times.
The contest was definitely a chess match, we just got lucky with our back-up chips both days.

Also I would like to thank Vince and Jacob over at the EVGA booth. Vince is great and was more than happy to educate us in the ways of the force. His new f1 is, for lack of a better word, sweet...can't wait to bench with it.

And last but not least, I would like to thank my team mates, Splave and Dent.
I know I already said it, but thanks a million you guys, it was epic. Enjoy guys.
