| I wish I could come, but there's no way I'm spending all the money to fly down just to have the honor of paying $70 for it. No f***ing way.

| WE is not really unpredictable.
Marsh, Mummery, Ambort, Vie, Selter, definitely. Alegre and any of the other girls from LAIFC (Gegan) will very likely round out the make top 8, as well. | |

| Merz is always a possibility. I recognize a couple other names, but from refereeing youth events - I'll still go with age and treachery this year..
Was there no deal for women doing both Womens and Mixed events? I see a number of the stronger women just registered for the Mixed event. Quote: |

| Agreed. Its my privilege to fence Ms. Ostatnigrosh at my club on a regular basis. She makes it look easy, and touches so precisely that you hardly know it until the light goes off. My money's on her to take 1st. | |

| Douglas in the top 4, a bold prediction. What is annoying is that the As can't be bothered to show up. Quote: |
