I was thinking of some way to glorify my BP a bit and figured a topic to talk about everyones would be fine enough. I can't think of one incoming I had this round that my BP wasn't there to help protect me (and many times save me from being wiped away). The timezones we took up (America; EST for me, Europe) have worked in our favor. I was around to do their defense calls and organize defense and vice versa.
To put it generally, I think my BP made this my favorite round, and that includes the days of private galaxies full of friends of mine. A big salute goes out to my BP and all of the buddypacks that worked out for those in the game. Shame some people weren't active and wanted to be exiled though.
