This is exactly how I heard about ITST, except Rob didn't start kicking my ass until a few months later. I think we went 15-13 deep in the match tb first time we played. And I can't kick serve...

At this moment I don't think he'd fall very far from top 50, but he plays fair and has a lot of potential. Most importantly he's always been a great gentleman.
Feel free to share your opinions and/or reflect on WT experiences to ITST. Just please no BigFootGREG stories!!!

Redferne is indeed awesome to play, but I think there's only 4 or 5 of us who are up late enough to ever meet him on WT... Or maybe he's just always on? I'm pretty sure I've mentioned ITST to him in the past, can't remember the reaction. I bring up ITST quite often if the player is interesting and has a somewhat reasonable character setup/game. But I think everybody who plays WT these days has heard of ITST. If they're not in, it's because they don't want to play within the confines of 90-40. Come to think of it, I can't think of anyone besides redferne who MIGHT join. Maybe blufetish, he's pretty fun.
I still love playing WT with a Sim character and surprising the overpowered guys, almost as much as playing a straight up sim match. Running them ragged with their 30 stamina is immensely satisfying,:P even if I end up losing in two tiebreaks (which happens a lot).
