Conservation Of Greatness

We can just wish for the same weather as back in 2007. Paganello is a week earlier this time around, so hopefully it’s only a degree colder or so. The forecast for next Thursday (it’s as far as The Weather Channel dares to tread) is rain and 9C/49F. The Norwegians at yr.no thinks it’ll be partly cloudy and 6C/42F. Swedish SMHI says cloudy and 5C/41F. For first time in a while I hope the Norwegians win.

It seems like the Paga site got a bit of the Cut & Paste Hick-up. I wonder if there’s something else that should be there or if it’s just a filler. Either way, the 100 teams from 25 countries are probably just as eager to get to the beach as me. The open division contains 40 teams from 13½ countries (the half category being “International”). I recognize most of the teams from previous years and I’d prefer not playing against UTI, 45 Giri, FSL, Tailspin or Stinks at all, just for the sake of variation. The teams I WOULD like to play again is:

• Super Mannschaft (three is a charm or three strikes?)
• MILF (beat us in 2007, love at second sight?)
• Black Panthers (same as MILF)
• Inglorious Basterds (to get a speed check of the Polish Ultimate scene)

Since we’ll have Alex from Ukraine on the team and he’s the only one (as far as I know) with a connection to another team, I guess we will cheer a bit extra for “Dyki Krali” in the womens division.

And for the final..

Do not fuck with a guy holding a disc. From Hard ticket to Hawaii (2.7/10).
