I haven't played in any of the big Mongoose convention tournaments but I would sure like to.

Playtested CTA 1st edition, Dilgar Imperium, The Tournament Pack, The Drakh, Armageddon.

Currently playtesting VaS (the forthcoming published game is awesome!).

Couldn't place in the local (2 so far) CTA tournaments because I was running them.

I have one accolade unique to even Mongoose...

Friend of Ted Chang.

Ted Chang, don't you know. And I'm not a moderator any more so don't even think about moaning to me.

Well for shizzle my nizzle. I think Alex is the only other on this forum who can claim the same thing!

I have the claim to fame that I may soon be scalped by TC

Actually that's true now. They used to really not get on when Alex first met Ted, but after Alex found out about Ted's stint in the Falklands he discovered they had a lot in common.

Accoaldes...hmm

I think mine would be something like this

"Most Likeliest person to have playtested whatever book you happen to be holding by mongoose Publishing"

"Referred to as the "old man" of Playtesting by Ian Belcher.

"Author of numerous SST RPG articles for Signs and Portents".

"The guy responsible for how tunneling now works in SST Wargame, via playtest comments".

"He who has posted in the Gooses defence when necessary since the very beginning because he saw the potential when others doubted"... its good to be proven right
