Please welcome our newest citizen, daward2

[PaulW]

daward2 has been playing many Tichu games with us for the past several weeks and became an official munchkin today. Please say "Welcome" when you next see him on BSW! He's from Little Rock, Arkansas in the central US.

If you think I copied this message from RinzaiZen1978, you would be correct.  They room together, so I figured it made life easier on me.

"And the award for the newest munchkin goes to...(envelope please)"

fumble...shuffle...rip "Ow! Paper cut!"

"daward2!"

massive applause

We only have one award so you'll have to take it from Rinzai when he's not looking.

Welcome! 

[Rinzai]

Congratulations, daward2! You picked a great city.

I wondered where the new-munchkin-pretzel went. I figured I mislaid it.

I predict many law-school diversions in the near future!

[daward2]

I would like to first thank the acadamy. I was an honor to be nominated.

I would also like to thank all those that played games with me over the past few weeks.

And RinzaiZen1978 for teaching me tichu, which he now hates because that's all I want to play.

Except for Piranha Pedro.  And that's because I get to drown a little fellow.  Accidentally, of course.

[orchestra starts to play]

And szwanger for the ice cream, and spacesquirrel for the acorns.

And mom and dad and [music gets louder]

Thank you thank you thank you.

welcome in town, daward and have fun within!

reikja, still figuring out if daward is better to be partner or opponent in Tichu..

[Don_Quijote]

Welcome and congratulations for the Award. Great speech (at least I liked the mucical bits very much  ).

It looks as if you can keep your award a little longer:

I guess this means Ricky Martin won't be joining EC.

Nothing tracks down bugs in my code like a new Munchkin.  You just helped me find a bug.  Thanks for never playing a single player game.  I have now daward2-proofed the Single Player Record screen for the web site.

Ricky Martin has never played a Singleuser game before? Probably there are no instructions in latin american...
