The Norwegians got caught without a ticket?
The hotel was sold out so we decided to chance it. Of course they had to check then. I have to implicate Joey and Lars in this affair, too, by the way. Joey tried in vain to escape justice by paying with cubing lessons, but to no avail.
We also took the tram that day from Margaret Bridge to Octagon, and decided to put all our spare coins into tickets so we could ride safe... but when we clicked random button with Hungarian text, the machine gave us
most (!) of our change back, and no tickets. So we tried again, this time with English text (the button read "dispense"). Same result. So we rode without tickets again, this time successfully.
Vodka Mellon causes Scandinavians to sing Eurovision song contest hits?
Jarle sings ESC hits with or without Vodka Mellon.
Any other feedback on Euro 2010? We are always looking for improvement.
Get (a) better announcer(s). I'm not sure if the guy speaking the local language is necessary, but if he is, is it too much of a problem to dig up someone who can do both? I can't speak for him, but the English announcer got annoying after a while. He needs to shut up more, and when he talks, he should not repeat himself six times over in ten minutes. He also uses phrases which just feel unprofessional ("we're gonna" instead of "we will") - but that may be nitpicking from my side.
The finals were mostly very well done, but it's stupid to build up the excitement when everyone in the audience knows who has won. I would reorder the participants for each round based on the cut-off average instead. The last solve shouldn't be as uninteresting as it was this time around.
Space out the big blind events more. They are extremely exhausting.
Other than that, I can't think of anything to complain about.
