yo, There is a problem here in that lots of teams play mixed for fun, and at a 48 team tournament you're sure to have a mix of serious and party teams. If you remove the fun drunkery from ultimate, all your left with is a boring serious sport for dullards who like wearing tights and sweat bands.
I think that Fully Charged are a little unfortunate as they were pretty much the only team up for night-time shouting. But the aggressive reply to the request to shut up (as mentioned in that previous email) *was* out of character for fun early hours sleepless banter. When I camp at ultimate tournaments I expect to be woken up at various points through the night. Sometimes cos I need a piss. Sometimes cos my face is freezing off. Sometimes cos the person next to me needs to puke. Sometimes cos waggle's* farts are unspeakably awful. And sometimes cos I made the mistake of camping next to the monkeyc*nts who aer playing the "how may people can we make hate us" game. Someone once said that it's a good idea to avoid tents with irish flags stuck on 'em. Discuss. If it makes anyone feel any better we spanked Fully Charged first thing sunday morning. Laters Tom *feel free to subsititute waggle for any of the following: fletch, mediocre, myself, superflyjon and howard that sits opposite me at work. And Gaz in QA too.
