Notable quotes

“There was a private message sent to the TWIP committee... there was a plan to have Chris win the award... and then one of his followers had said, 'be careful... just stab him when he does give you the award.'”
Joel (Triple Drain)
“I wouldn't want to go to one of these award shows and not come home to my kids. People are just getting riled up.”
Joel (Triple Drain)
“The drama outside of it exceeds like the actual award show... There's only a small percentage of us that even care about the show.”
Travis (Triple Drain)
“We don't do this for a trophy. We do this because it's something we like to do and it's fun.”
Scott (LoserKid)
“If I was looking at this as a whitewood, I would be excited to flip it.”
Travis (Triple Drain)
“It's a callback to a 90s layout, you know a 90s belly williams layout.”
Scott (LoserKid)
“I'm always concerned about small companies and reliability because I am not a mechanic... that's my only concern however it looks good.”
Josh (LoserKid)
“This is probably their best shooting layout they've made so far.”
