[2006-10-10 11:53:40] NCC-2000: that snowmobile must be ridiculously expensive or something, cause the rest is dirt cheap

[2006-10-10 11:54:12] Robair: I feel good about the snowmobile bid but as usual I am probably $300 over
[2006-10-10 11:54:22] PriceFanArmadillo: Yeah...not only are both my bids ridiculously low, I ADDED ~1k to each of them.
[2006-10-10 11:54:29] Robair: That might be the 14K snowmobile
[2006-10-10 11:54:36] PriceFanArmadillo: I only got $11,788 when I added up SC2.
[2006-10-10 11:54:54] PriceFanArmadillo: ...which I see someone else actually bid, so I'm not going crazy.
[2006-10-10 11:55:10] PaulMiller: I squeezed SC2 like an orange to get $13K out of it
[2006-10-10 11:55:11] Robair: Chief-O and I are the only ones in the ballpark on SC2

[2006-10-10 11:57:00] Robair said to BuddyTom: Was anyone else in the plus column?

[2006-10-10 11:57:15] WhammyPower788: Apparently, Fireball has it
[2006-10-10 11:57:23] NCC-2000: El Cheapo bit us all in the ass today...except for fireball
[2006-10-10 11:57:26] Forrest20: That was MEAN by Roger.
[2006-10-10 11:57:27] PaulMiller: And Fireball has wiped the field
[2006-10-10 11:57:30] RobertSearcy: Nice Fireball
[2006-10-10 11:57:34] rodroddyfan: i didnt think any showcases were under 13k anymore, wow
[2006-10-10 11:57:35] pathfinder20: fireball good job....
[2006-10-10 11:57:36] Chief-O: Felt just like freakin' 1996!!!
[2006-10-10 11:57:47] Robair: QSW AND A BLITZ IN THE SAME DAY????
[2006-10-10 11:57:48] BRB_TheFireball:  
[2006-10-10 11:57:54] RobertSearcy: Which # QSW is that?
[2006-10-10 11:57:57] Robair: SAY IT AIN'T SO
[2006-10-10 11:58:12] PaulMiller: So far as I can tell, it is the THIRD QSW
[2006-10-10 11:58:15] BuddyTom: 2nd QSW ever, I believe.
[2006-10-10 11:58:21] BuddyTom: third?
[2006-10-10 11:58:23] Robair: That means he doubles THREE TIMES
[2006-10-10 11:58:26] PaulMiller: Garffreak has one, I have one, and now Fireball's
[2006-10-10 11:58:26] Joe_Mello: That should be an automatic tourney birth, regardless of whether or not he makes it
[2006-10-10 11:58:50] Robair: And that would be the first blitz ever since the blitz rule was instituted last year
[2006-10-10 11:58:53] Chief-O: YEAH!!!!   HIM IN THE TOURNAMENT!!!
[2006-10-10 11:58:59] Joe_Mello: That's 780-some points there
[2006-10-10 11:59:09] PaulMiller: An 8:1 doubler is going to put him in regardless
[2006-10-10 11:59:10] Doughnut: Wow.
[2006-10-10 11:59:21] Joe_Mello: And $200,000-some moneys
[2006-10-10 11:59:33] PaulMiller: Garffreak and I did ours in the same week in February of 2005
[2006-10-10 11:59:37] PriceFanArmadillo: Shoot. I guess he's REALLY glad I padded my SC2 bid now.
[2006-10-10 11:59:45] gauchodirk: I still can't get over that showcase being sub-$12K
[2006-10-10 12:00:06] PriceFanArmadillo: I can't get over the fact that I was right that it was sub-$12k...yet I refused
to bid that low.
[2006-10-10 12:00:23] SteveGavazzi: That was the least expensive showcase since sometime in Season 30.
[2006-10-10 12:00:31] Robair: and now I am going to get blitzed
[2006-10-10 12:00:35] Robair: bye
[2006-10-10 12:00:48] RobertSearcy: I need a drink after today's SCs
[2006-10-10 12:01:06] gauchodirk: that was the rule dammit! all showcases are over $12K!
[2006-10-10 12:01:13] PriceFanArmadillo: I just thought there would be no way SC2 would be that cheap...especially after
seeing the FIRST showcase (which also clocked in at under 13k by my math).
[2006-10-10 12:01:15] apeminkie said to RobertSearcy: I need a grenade after today's SCs
[2006-10-10 12:01:31] Chief-O: I need a sabbatical.
[2006-10-10 12:01:51] Chief-O:  
[2006-10-10 12:01:52] RobertSearcy: I need a whole damn case of Budweiser 
[2006-10-10 12:01:53] PriceFanArmadillo: Remind me to never listen to my brain again.
[2006-10-10 12:02:06] RobertSearcy: Anyway -- later gang -- congrats Fireball
[2006-10-10 12:02:53] User heelsrule1988 entered this room
[2006-10-10 12:03:05] heelsrule1988: my computer totally failed on me
[2006-10-10 12:03:07] PriceFanArmadillo: Hi Heels.
[2006-10-10 12:03:22] heelsrule1988: but after seeing those ARPs... wow, i'm glad i didn't play css
[2006-10-10 12:03:24] PriceFanArmadillo: Well...you missed a QSW-Blitz win.
[2006-10-10 12:03:32] heelsrule1988: SOMEONE SCORED?!
[2006-10-10 12:03:35] PriceFanArmadillo: And me talking myself out of bidding $11,788.
[2006-10-10 12:03:42] heelsrule1988: i thought there'd be no way!
[2006-10-10 12:03:44] PriceFanArmadillo: I would have had I not bumped it to $13,000.
[2006-10-10 12:03:52] heelsrule1988: how the heck did someone bid that low
[2006-10-10 12:03:56] PriceFanArmadillo: Fireball over there actually DID bid $11,788.
[2006-10-10 12:04:17] heelsrule1988: dang... nice job, fireball
[2006-10-10 12:04:25] PriceFanArmadillo: I actually calculated it to be $11,788, but then said to myself "Self, there's
no way they'd have TWO incredibly cheap showcases on the same day".
[2006-10-10 12:04:29] BRB_TheFireball: AND i bid $15,888 on the FRCS
[2006-10-10 12:04:35] PriceFanArmadillo: PriceFanArmadillo kicks himself.
[2006-10-10 12:04:39] PriceFanArmadillo: Hard.
[2006-10-10 12:04:45] PriceFanArmadillo: In the groinal area.
[2006-10-10 12:04:51] heelsrule1988: what were your differences fireball
[2006-10-10 12:04:57] BRB_TheFireball: $124/$48
[2006-10-10 12:05:04] PriceFanArmadillo: $124/$48.
[2006-10-10 12:05:09] heelsrule1988: holy mother
[2006-10-10 12:05:20] heelsrule1988: how could it be a blitz, though? stage player scored
[2006-10-10 12:05:26] BRB_TheFireball: Jacquis went over
[2006-10-10 12:05:33] heelsrule1988: OH NO WAIT
[2006-10-10 12:05:37] heelsrule1988: the dude went over!
[2006-10-10 12:05:41] PriceFanArmadillo: No...SP busted on the cruise.
[2006-10-10 12:05:42] heelsrule1988: wow
[2006-10-10 12:05:51] heelsrule1988: i've always wondered what happens in a blitz
[2006-10-10 12:06:09] PriceFanArmadillo: Congrats on the extra doubling on top of the doubled double, Fireball.
[2006-10-10 12:06:10] heelsrule1988: i guess we get to see it now
[2006-10-10 12:06:14] BRB_TheFireball:  
[2006-10-10 12:06:45] heelsrule1988: i'm still shocked someone actually scored on that showcase
[2006-10-10 12:06:47] PriceFanArmadillo: Yeah...he wins both Showcases...doubled....doubled again...and then
doubled again...or something like that.
[2006-10-10 12:06:55] heelsrule1988: i was thinking for sure that everyone was screwed
