Finch Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 BBO forum regular gnasher (Andy Bowles) has just been selected to play for England in the upcoming Camrose matches in March. As this is his first England selection, and the first trials he's played in since he started posting on the forums, the two must clearly be related.

kenrexford Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Congrats! I'm not sure whether to take this as a sign that conversation with the forumers pays off or to advise Andy to disregard everything we have said if he wants to win.

gnasher Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Thank you, everyone, for your kind words. Before anyone starts questioning the sanity of the selectors, I should point out that as the host nation England enters two teams, and I'm in the lesser of the two. So, even if I chuck dozens of IMPs through forgotten methods and floored games it won't matter much, because everyone will be watching the real England team anyway.

Finch Posted November 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Rather rudely, I forgot to add that Andy's partner, catch22, is also a sometime forum poster. Mind you, Andy forgot as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Rather rudely, I forgot to add that Andy's partner, catch22, is also a sometime forum poster. Mind you, Andy forgot as well... ... now your claim, that his participation in the forum and his selectionare related starts to look more and more creditible. With kind regardsMarlowe PS: Also congratulations from my side, good luck and hopefully you, your partner and your teammates, show England 1 and the other teamstheir limits.
