    See you in the big tournament, Karen.

    Would they have accepted “Christian Ranaldo”? That was my guess.

    • VJ says:

      idk, Albert. I think maybe they would have allowed “Ranaldo” — sounds pretty much the same, but idk if leaving the “O” off the first name would get the whole thing rejected

    Well Karen had a good run for eight days and played brilliantly. The last eight game winners drew horwood and Ben Ingram also did well but drew didn’t do so strong in the 2014 toc. I just hope Karen won’t falter in the next one like drew did. Let’s see what Lisa can do but I have a feeling she might not get more than three games won. Although I found her response to be funny, I’ve never heard of Ronaldo before, VJ. What team does he play for?
