Good afternoon sirs!>>154569668He's been shite for quite a while, think I heard the word dartitis in that context, not sure if I'm confusing this with someone else. Also heard Webby is battling leukemia, luckily a form which has 95% survival rate. Wish him all the best.
>>154570132>He's been shite for quite a while, think I heard the word dartitis in that context, not sure if I'm confusing this with someone else.No, definitely was him - he withdrew from his first round game in the Players Championship on Monday averaging around 55 against de Zwaan.
By the way: Max Jobb made a PC final, which put him in reach of Oom top 64. I swear at the moment he's one of the top 3 german players, probably above Gabe and Pikachu. Hope he can keep it up and hold on to his card.>>154570235>averaging around 55 against de Zwaan.Holy hell. Somehow I assumed that Autists like him are immune to such problems. Well, that sucks. As awkward as he is, his games usually were entertaining.
