This will be remembered in AH history as the Tournamennt Most Excellent.
The Greek Philosophers speak of Arete: Excellence
"Arete, perhaps the most articulated value in Greek culture, is the Greek term for excellence.... In its earliest appearance in Greece this notion of excellence was bound up with the fulfillment of purpose or function; the act of living up to one's full potential.
Effort: Doing One's Best.
A second dimension of arete is the concept of great effort of doing one's best. It does not require defeating or prevailing over others. It is essentially being and doing one's absolute best - becoming the best person one can become....."

? ... good luck with those numbers. please show us the links that were not available to the players trying to watch, based on the links provided. certainly an outstanding tournament and kudos for that. I spent multiple hours simply trying to find audio and video that matched up
at the same time and in the same place (based on the provided links) to no avail on Saturday when everyone was looking. two websites ... two tables ... four headaches.
I did my homework. very curious post here...

unless of course you wanted to follow the chat. the best way was to use audio from portablesports on table 2 ... and then watch the video and chat at the same time from table one direct from ustream.
done with this ... the people that were present at the tournament do not and will not understand.
great tournament though as always ... cheers.
the most viewers that I saw at any given time including the finals was around 200. considering that most players were there ... excellent work gentlemen.

it turns out that as i had hoped, that i was wrong about the numbers of viewers. i watched from various websites and various pages within ustream, but not from the front page. i never saw any numbers higher than 300. i am overjoyed to be wrong. thanks to those who are capable of pointing this out with class and respect.
a bit more now in this thread...
