We have a strong contender for this high accolade today, courtesy of one Mr. Steve Bernstein Esquire.

Any guesses before the big reveal?

Lets hear it... We had "can I shriekmaw chameleon colossus?" from Jason Payne today!
Oh, it was -way- stupider than that.
This is as I remember it, I'm sure Mr Baker can chip in if I get something slightly wrong.

Ok, so it is Round 6. The final round of the tournament. It is Game 3 of Steve Bernstein vs Tom Baker in, I believe, the 3-2 bracket, so playing for prizes.

The game is in extra turns, and there is a judge sitting nearby as it's the only game still being played.

The game is looking like not finishing in extra turns, and I believe Steve asks something to the effect of, 'shall we just finish the game normally' (not hugely important), and Tom, quite rightly, says 'uh, there is a judge right there, I would rather play it out by the rules'.

At this point Steve turns to the judge and utters the immortal words;

'Would you mind leaving the table so I can discuss something with my opponent?'

...

...

...

After the judge has picked his jaw up off the floor, he rules that, no, that is not a reasonable request, but that Steve does have the right to appeal his ruling.

Which... he does.

I only wish I'd seen the look on DLS's face when he got that request.
I wonder if Jason can beat that?!
Now THAT'S entertainment!

This world would be a duller place without Steve!!!
It's like walking into HMV with a large empty bag and asking the security guard to turn around for 2 minutes. Priceless.
