GX News Report for this week.
Post by David Van Moer on Aug 23rd, 2003, 5:49pm

The GX competion finally starts picking up with 4 players now posting times. Just one more week before the US release when things will really explode ! Controversy still exists over the highly-debated 'dakou' but for the moment there are no rules excluding this technique.

Current champ David Van Moer was very busy beating staff ghost left and right but will have problems holding the n°1 spot if he sticks to his non-snaking commitment.

Newcomer Christian Fengler has no issues with snaking and looks like a strong contender for the number 1 position in the first weeks to come.

We welcome Masao I. as the first Japanese player to join the GX competition and also Stéphane Lemeunier who posts some first Ruby track efforts.

What's it like writing in the third person? Heh.

Well, I find it kind of fun sometimes, because I can really bash myself without fear of hurting anyone's feelings (except my own ) but the temptation for me is to say too much about Logan West, and too many wisecracks and attention isn't good for him

Yeah, he had great fun reverting to himself in the third person while also being able to control just exactly what he'll write and on whom he can put some special attention. Be sure to keep an eye on him.

I'll ask Logan to keep an eye on David Von Moer if you'd like. He'd do a good job of making sure David equally distributes the report among all the players
