Okay i made it but messed up the video because in my rush, i forgot a bag so you're only going to get partial match and not what you wanted

yes, i am a *numnut*, lots of new faces to me but this time i enjoyed looking at a couple of matches myself...jeremy and moxi did very well, i really enjoy watching those guys.

you guys need to do the weekend carpool if you must stock up on food and drinks before, they have food but i went out for McDonalds

naturally i still forget everyone names

videos are being uploaded sorry they suck please have a barf bag ready...probably in the next hour in the video section.

okay maybe sometime tonight at this rate...lol *maybe tomorrow?!?1

I use this Power Director but the previous version, it has a lot of presets and is cheap, this can shrink and convert your HD files for YouTube.

and Moxi is a "big brother"...i think?

You left early? I was thinking of going down there for the last few matches and catch some images of the BC players whom i keep missing but i'll probably be in Vancouver (stopover but can extend it) for the Canadian Junior Cadet Open 2013 there this year..i think the Chinese will be there with a couple others who didn't make Toronto this time around.

Also...i'm wondering if the prez might be there tomorrow??? "hmmm."

You can also try over at Vimeo but the files take awhile to upload, it's free.

Who have you been impressed with at the tournament?

Apart from the usual suspects, for me it has been Jeremy Hazin and Moxi Guo from Ontario and Cherry Zheng and Jane Yan from British Columbia.

The even younger participants like Alexander Bu the youngest male (probably youngest overall ...i think there was a girl (Alicia Coté?) from Quebec who might be younger) there the experience is good for future play.

Liu Jiabao is always good to watch and "quietly" gaining more "mental toughness", she has the strokes.

Annie Coulombe is also gaining more "mental toughness", i did see her "distracted" last year this year not so much and it shows in her play.

Liu Jaiwei, is mentally tough but seems to need more practice...i say this because whenever she misses ...she goes thru a "practice stroke", catches herself doing it then stops.

Justina Yeung, i didn't watch her play but from her match scores...."where was this when i'm shooting"?!? *lol*

Alexander Moran is still so steady maybe too steady he's readable in tactics?

Todd Gregory, the lone representative from PEI,first time for me seeing but he had a couple of walk overs.

Amy Nichols quietly went about her business even more so did Natasha Carr-Harris

At the top Anqi is making waves while Sara Yeun is steady as she goes.
On the men's side it Hongtao Chen and Pierre-Luc holding steady but when Eugene goes who will be the third Canadian?

All of the above is just my less than knowledgeable opinions on TT in Canada i'm last on the totem pole to give any expert comments in the meantime i'll work on getting my images even better with some gear upgrades.

btw i hope you guys that is non-competing players gave the thumbs up to Anqi, Hongtao, James, Mathieu,Michelle and Annie for their recent global showings.

See you guys at the Ontario Open 23-24 March 2013

Like most of the younger players coming up, Jeremy has an excellent overall attitude in the sport, i hope they don't get influenced by "poor" attitude by the old farts around them like some teen players who get blinded by what is and isn't acceptable sportsmanship.

I think i saw a couple of stiga blades can't recall who though
jeremy, moxi and jiabao use TMO alc with tenery when i looked at one of their training sessions...jiabao uses 64 on her backhand, i think she has really great control.

if you guys are rally interested i can do the "20 questions" on them ..that is if i'm not too shy myself to approach them.
