went off like a son of a bitch. Fun was had by all, and everyone was walking around showing off their bruises like they were Badges Of True Radness.

Which of course, they were.

I've got Heather and Adrian's pics. Imma set up a flickr site with all of the battle pics tomorrow, send yours to me via iamnotagun at the gmail dot com and I'll set em all up.

Huge thanks and hugs to absolutely everyone who showed up. You all kicked ass, and if you had half the good time I did, then we threw one hell of a party.

Special thanks to my Generals:

Seana Allen, first general to break the gender line, who braved a storm of chain-of-command-breaks and went on to lead a kickass team. Also: The other brains behind the whole shebang, without whom this never would have happened.

And Matthew Sorvillo, bantamweight miracle, who, when singled out for destruction by one of the biggest bruisers on the field, took his repeated and grievous punishment like a goddamn man. That motherfucker ate contusions and shat out victory. He's a stud.

next fight's in a few months. Hope to see you all then.
