    Yeah... Where I don't win anything despite being most deserving.

    As always, a big thanks to Hexus and all the many manufacturers/sponsors (in this case nVidia) for making it all possible! You guys rock!!!

    Next age group? Closer to last age group in my case, which seems odd when I have kids at school and hopefully have half my years left. Still, if I win a 2080ti I could be the talk of the retirement home

    Yay! Been looking forward to the year end competitions. Always nice to have dreams of getting nice hardware for free. (Until they get mercilessly shattered by reality.)

    And always nice to feel magnanimous as I decline to enter a giveaway.

    It means you're not 56 yet. Until then, regardless of age, you will always get closer to the next age group.
