hasnt gone anywhere yet, still waiting for the prize to be claimed.

Might have to cut him a little slack and extend the claim deadline......he could be out in the desert chasing down the drifter who burglarized his home recently

oh man Q, that’s an audible that I’d prefer not to have to call, I’m hoping the other dogs like doglegg and garddogg56 will round up GSPTOPDOG…..we have no shortage of dogs here at AAPK:

Prize has been claimed, the PM I received overnight said "My computer was stolen and my buddy was nice enough to let me use his to get back to you. Thank you and I'm super happy to be the winner of this knife!".

Oh good. I was starting to worry he went looking for his knives and didn't make it back. Could you imagine walking into a homeless camp that's recently armed itself with GSPTOPDOG's eclectic arsenal of weapons from around the world? It'd be like walking into Mordor

Wow, that was at the buzzer! Glad he made it. Such a difficult time.

not exactly Floyd, he was alerted on 9-1 @ 5:33AM Eastern which technically gave him until 9-4 @ 5:33AM so he had another full day to go under the rules. In this case, I probably would have reached out to MT-Vessel (next closest participant) sometime today, tell him the GSPTOPDOG story and get his blessing to extend the response deadline. Thankfully I didn't have to make that audible!

That dog! He even got the time right this month! It'll feel good for him to get reverse-robbed when that shows up in the mail

...Looks like by doing some extensive research on the essence of what "Time" is and what "Time-Zones" actually are my understanding of "Time" finally paid off......

Congrats GSPTOPDOG ! ! Sorry to heap of your losses !
