For everyone that's in the "Jolly's Painful affliction of the Month Pool"...
January's winner was heart attack... unclaimed
February's winner was Double Diverticulitis, 2 flare ups in 2 weeks... unclaimed
March's winner was... Pinched nerve in the neck affecting the right arm. I was in some serious pain for a week or so. We got the inflammation down so it's better than last week. Geez... turn 50 and my body falls apart. I'm like an old car that has 200,000 miles on the engine.
Anyway I'll stop whining and give you all the PFC 13 info.
It's time again for Plane Fight Club, where I take your craft and make them battle in a tournament format with BDArmory's AI pilot. The theme for PFC 13 is Flying Cars.
