OK.. thanks to everyone in CC basically, because ive played with or against most or all... and have had a blast doing so.....to varying degrees of course
and sorry for patting my own back, which of course i deserve heat for, but I was at 3k for about 10 seconds, so there was no way anyone else would ever see it, and I dont have time to get back up there...
It was a photo finish.. i was about to lose a world 2.1 speed game, so I started a speed doodle, and almost lost that one too... the dice gave it to me... the other guy waited a few seconds, and I jumped into 3k land for seconds, which is enough for me
I also proved that yelling and pounding can work, because I was about to lose the doodle game too, and then my 4 killed a 3, a one, and I got a set and went on to win, which I should not have in any way
I was late for work as it was, which is why I didnt thank everyone in the original thread.... I know 3k doesnt mean much anymore, but its still a bit of a mile marker, and didnt want to slight the thousands ive played, and the few Ive played a lot

Yep, well done Fitz. Shocked it wasn't a lot sooner; I'm sure it would have been if you kept taking your pills as prescribed,

Well done Fitz and I'm also proud that you were able to put your hands to a better use by patting yourself on your own back.
ps. Nice spelling job in the title.
It's F I N A L L Y. You are short a L. It's ok. We all make mistakes sometimes.

Juuuuust barely over the line, too.
Congrats, fitz (especially speaking as a fellow old-timer hoping to one of these days crack the 3000+ line myself).
