As a last stand, I'd like to challenge everyone out there to provide any more in the way of incriminating evidence, for until then, I feel that I don't really have anything against which to defend myself. I challenge those who accusers were at these tournaments, meticuously keeping track of scores, to find questions that I got really quickly, and to call into question my knowledge of that particular subject. I would imagine that almost every question I answered in the last ACF packets was a "Name author from work", country from capital, supreme court trivia, mythology, or American history (my one true realm of expertise) question. Or find another tournament with a question in which that same beginning was given, but that I didn't get the answer quickly. I know this is a significant amount of work, but some of you seem to think the sanctity of the world is now hanging by a thread, so you'll have to do some research to prove it, rather than submitting me to a trial by fire. Although I hope this was at least partially convincing to many of you, there are some among you are already convinced of my guilt, calling for a defense only to provide more fuel for their fire. These are probably the people who made it to the end of this post, however, so my arguments by this point are probably falling on deaf ears. I appreciate those reading this in its entirety, and I hope that this at least quells the attack of the mob, if not all individuals. (I realize there's probably not really "a mob" out to get me, but I've been on the defensive alot recently, so I assume it is only natural to think more people are out to get you than their actually are). And since I haven't yet denied the allegatiosn outright: I did not have pre-tournamential relations with those packets. Cam p.s. I hope to see some of you at Trash this weekend. No hard feelings.
