I've been excited for this update all week. Wild stuff in the scene, you forgot Thorzain to EG in the trades though.
TL Mafia. Love it. Play it. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/index.php?show_part=31 I find Kennigit really attractive. If anyone has a picture of him please feel free to PM it to me.

MKP vs Yugioh was probably the best series of 2012 yet-all 3 games were good. Needs more attention imo =/. TheStc vs Ghostking only had one really good game while MKP vs Yugioh had 3. Alive vs Leenock was just funky.

Also, yea OP deserves more credit. This kind of stuff is a lot harder to do than it looks.
