Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Credit where credit's due, but it seems like great pains have been taken to hide the fact that this was a tournament of 4 players.

Looks like she also had a 1st place finish in this tournament, which had over triple the entrants (14), and she did it while 7 months pregnant—that's much more impressive, imo.

As someone who is sitting next to his newborn who he just brought home yesterday - the fact she did literally anything besides sleep is much more impressive

Edit: grammar. I'm so tired

Huge congrats! Hang in there - everything gets easier soon.

soon

Could you please be more specific? It's been 13 years. Maybe in another year?

Yes. Another year. Or another life. I keep mixing up these terms.

Next week for sure.

Classic Dexerto, making a headline that gives a wildly inaccurate impression of reality.

The headline made it seem like she won a tournament on the likes of EVO, not some small local tournament that could have just been among family members. Its cool she did this, but the author is REALLY trying hard to live up to their name (Virgina Glaze ).
