    I'm glad to be seeing so many BA wins. I thought I made a mistake by picking BA but at least now I know it wasn't my fault . Haha

    Lost out on Baltimore. Probably should have picked BA, but we're a little intimidated by GA (for people who aren't that old, we're kind of old fogies sometimes).

    I did have Toronto Reserved as my 1st priority, and won, but I feel like the Canadian draws were less contested than the US ones.
