It would be super cool if Matt is able to come and read that blog post.

He was a breath of fresh air and a hell of a lot of fun to play against. He kept referring to his units as his "boys" which I found hilarious and oddly touching.<br /><br />I was disappointed when he didn't show up again, and saddened when I saw this post. It was an honor and a pleasure, Duff.

I actually took that photo of Duff less than three months ago at DGM before we sat down to play his newest favorite game - Kemet.
