Cassidy was a little strange, but there's no doubt in my mind that his enthusiasm was genuine. He also played a hard game of Pocket ¢hange
very well.
I would really like to know what was going through Joyce's head when she tried to explain Check Game. Most people who get it wrong at least have some kind of incorrect-but-logical rule system in mind; she just seemed to be pulling numbers out of her hind end.
Hit Me was interesting, if nothing else; it was nice to see someone who actually had the guts to make four draws (and it almost got him a win, too -- he was clearly considering the Garlique before he picked the cookies).
Taylor bugged me. It's not that I think his excitement wasn't genuine; it's that despite it, he
still seemed to be trying to show off. At least he played Five Price Tags pretty well.
Alexandru's reactions during the Showcase were hilarious. When the trip to New Zealand was revealed, you could hear him shout, "they just keep coming!"
It's just a shame he made such a ridiculously low bid on it (although considering how close Joelynn was, it might not have mattered anyway).

I disagree...I thought The Cats sounded totally out of place.
And for what it's worth, when a member "goes anonymous", it means he's been banned.
