Stet, just my opinion, but i encourage you to really take this competition seriously. I have been working with ReVoMaster to lock in the idea of getting a tournament running here in the US as well as the UK. I need Americans to want to be in the tournament. Then we can take a look at the location of all of the American tournament players and find a well suited location to host the tournament. It may be in your back yard!

For the rest of the american awaiting delivery of their Blues, I recieved confirmation yesterday, sunday the 22nd, that my puzzles was in the hands of the USPS.

Well, I like the feel of it. It's heavier than I expected, about the same as the Isis (little heavier). The color blue is fantastic, dark not baby blue. Movement is pretty good and I can see why people have sore hands. The only thing I might have done is make the bolt ends a little longer to make it a little easier to grip. So far I'm very impressed :D well worth the wait. Now ask me again in a few hours and I might have a different response ;)

Here is a size and color comparison to my Nkryptor.

Here is a size comparison to the head of my cat. :lol: :lol: :lol: At least she didn't slap at it, so I take that as a positive reaction :lol:

Posts deleted as pics are working!

ReVoMate... keeping the forums tidy! ;)

UPDATE: (for future reference) These forums are free for all types of chats about ReVoMaze and other topics. But certain posts that are no longer relevant (such as "can you see the above pic" when you can & has been sorted) will be deleted just to keep things tidy and 'easy on the eyes' for everyone.

Don't know about everyone but I HATE scrolling through pages and pages of posts to see anything decent.. :P :lol: :? :roll: ;)
