It'll Be Worth the Wait...

For those waiting in eager anticipation to see the footage of the BPL Season 2 '08 Grand Final from last Thursday night, all we can say is that we've reviewed the footage in its raw form and it'll be worth the wait.

We're currently experiencing some technical difficulties editing it all into watchable format, which translates into "Windows Movie Maker is the most useless, bug-ridden, hopelessly incompatible-with-everything, time-guzzling program ever to be automatically installed onto a computer as part of a Windows update". So we're off to acquire some software that actually works and will, with any luck, have the game and associated commentary from JDR, Special G and the Sensei posted right here in a day or two.

In the meantime we've got some news that's much worse than a slight delay in our exclusive BPL coverage. And the news is that Steve Hjelm quietly announced (as is his way) that he won't be taking the field for DojoMojo in future as he's moving to Sydney. This is very sad news not only for us here at the Dojo but also for Brisbane Ultimate at large. Hjelmie has been throwing a disc here in Brisbane longer than most and is a past BPL MVP winner - the guy is fast. Let's hope he doesn't wind up playing for Fakulti or someone like that...

Oh - and speaking of MVPs, DojoMojo's "Weapon from Antiquity" Dan Walls took out this season's BPL MVP title, beating the likes of Mike Nield and Buzz Burwell with an average tally of over 1 vote per game. Dan joins Hjelmie and Dave Watson in the select group of kenshi to have their names engraved on the stupendous BPL MVP trohpy.
