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.

You'll have to give the postie a beating (or set the dog on him) when it eventually arrives... not until he's handed you the puzzle of course :lol:
