** Congratulations to ThirstyBoots18, who comes from the default Wild Card spot to defeat 33-00-32 by a very close three-games-to-three, plus four bases ... she moves on to meet Bahku in the 2013 PAPTBG World Series! A very sincere thank-you to 33-00-32 who took over this game mid-season when I ran out of time to do so ... we most likely would not have had a playoffs this year if it wasn't for him. Also, the same wishes to Redz for a great series and for coming up with these games we've all become addicted to ... pretty amazing how they've developed over the years. TPs to all, and please feel free to send them some more. Hope to see TZT and Redz next spring for the 2014 season. I will be picking teams for the World Series ... really want to take the Sox, but not sure I want to risk what has become my relatively consistent jinx of them. Think I'll take a day-or-two to mull it over. Thanks! **
