Hi! I don't know you personally, but have been following this saga on cgp and livejournal for awhile now. I didn't want to post this on cgp, since it is mostly intended for you and i didn't see any reason to post somewhere you can't see it.
I saw that you took 10% of the roto prize fund for yourself for running the roto. Once you are back on your feet financially and have paid off other more pressing debts, I think it would be a nice gesture to the scrabble community to donate that 10% to the prize fund of a tournament or to a worthy charity or even tack it on to the amount paid to the winners of your roto. This seems fair to me since that juice was paying for a smoothly run, professional roto, when I think we can agree, this was not the case.
Good luck and I wish you the best,
Paul Cole

Sherri just told me you were off CGP. I wrote there assuming you'd get it, but I guess I will have to go this anonymous route.
I understand you paid off Mike. Congrats!
Jason still hasn't heard a peep from you since February though, and now we were just informed that you intend to play at Arden Cup, even after you promised here in this very thread that you would stay out of tourneys until the debt was settled? Does this mean that Jason should be expecting $274 before the tourney? I sure hope so.
Ditto! And my apologies for the confusion on the amount. It was $274 before that last payment in February. $224 it is. Jason had not received your payment as of Friday, so hopefully it will be there and square before the Arden Cup.
