Ugh, I may already need a replacement. It's not quite year end close yet and I'm already swamped at work

With three players away from starting and my vacation nearly over, I'm only at Epignosis with my meta cliff notes and, of course, since Golden follows afterwards, it only makes me contemplate crying.

anyway this will all be totally incomplete meta, because I'm only reviewing what players did in their winning games. It all depends whether players will seek to bring their best again, depending on alignment, or totally evade such a thing for this special occasion.

It doesn't matter how you would categorize yourself, it matters how it comes off looking. You took the reins, you bussed a teammate at the right time for safe measure and, as far as I detected, you only had a few doubters (like LC, I think) which were somehow removed without spreading the doubt further.
Anyway, it's all subjective rather then set in stone - but for me, despite (in your own words) "having done dick" in that game (intentionally), I really thought you were genuine whilst spectating and was shocked to see the outcome and have had issues trusting your good intentions since. You and boo probably the most, but boo's apparently not playing (or able to?).
