I am a fan of theirs. Are you speaking tongue and cheek in regards to their calling and election made sure or are you privy to something the rest of us don't know?

If I remember right, they have visited Hagoth's ward, so perhaps he has witnessed their eyes glowing or has other insider information to make a sure Pascal's wager.

Probably the best part of NOM for me the last two years has been conference weekend. I always appreciated the updates of the really bad and the really good, because I'm damn sure not going to watch it myself.

I hear you, Hagoth. This was something I dreaded, NOM being down during conference. I loved the play-by-play and color commentary that made the sessions interesting.
Yeah, I came on here with hope that someone was watching and at least giving some highlights (and low lights ). I don't watch GC anymore, but I really did love reading the threads on NOM over conference weekend.
Just wondering what is preventing someone from posting about GC at Shady Acres?

Maybe the anticipated burden of endless debate that might be evoked by every comment?
