A: Joel Sherman, Helen Gipson and Adrian Tamas
Q: Why Joel Sherman?
A: Because of his decision to dedicate to Scrabble and try to make a living out of it. A crazy idea, almost as crazy as my goal of qualifying for the WSC 2009.
Q: Why Helen Gipson?
A: Because of her consistency in learning new words using Zyzzyva. She currently has about 36000 words in her Zyzzyva cardbox, I have 4500. A long way to go for me.
Q: And why Adrian Tamas?
A: Because he's the first ever player from the Post-Soviet bloc to finish in the upper half of the World Scrabble Championship standings thus assuring Romania 2 places in the WSC 2009. Someday I'd like to do the same for Poland.
