    Damn bro... good luck on your surgeries. Hope they're not for anything that's life-threatening.

    Thanks T-Fam! I appreciate it. I am getting 3 surgeries to deal with my Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Tonsillectomy (tonsils ripped out), Septoplasty (deviated septum fixed), and UPPP (remove the little toungue/punching bag in the back of my throat).

    All this will help me breath better during sleep. I also snore like a mad animal because of the current obstruction (LOL - ask Chief Flash and my other VF roommates; they'll tell you!). Doctors found out that i stop breathing for extended periods at a time while i sleep. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/shocked.gif

    It will be nice to finally get a good nights sleep after all these years!

    I am dying to compete again, and the Samsung experience last year was a really good one. Something tells me that this year, the competition in general will be sooo much tougher.

    Good luck on your surgeries.

    Didn't realize you had Sleep Apnea, and major snoring gusto. Maybe because I drowned everyone's snoring with my own. Haha. I actually should have a check-up as well. There were times last year when I would wake up gasping for air.

    Thanks Manji!

    Monty - PLEASE get a check-up (sleep study)! Many people just let this condition slide, but it can have really detrimental long-term effects on your cognitive ability, concentration, blood pressure, etc.

    I understand now why i'm usually so tired during the day, and my concentration (usually when i'm reading) is not what it used to be. However, i'm glad that i caught this relatively early.

    Sorry for derailing this thread guys. Monty, if you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me.

    BEYOND THE GAME!!!

    I most likely have to work that weekend... but we'll see.

    Adam, good luck with your surgery. Hopefully the pain and suffering will be worth it with a better quality of life on the back end. Physical therapy for the throat/voice box can be crappy.

    I'd like to know this too. Want this trip to be a one day thing if I can do it. Not so sure I can snag 2 days off.

    I'm sorry guys I don't know the schedule as of yet. As soon as I get a schedule I will let everyone know.

    Its possible that one game could take both days if they have the group play on Saturday and then on Sunday run the double-elim bracket.

    But that is speculation, hopefully they pick 2 games for each day and finish them.
