Now I just need to hope that Susan doesn't wake up any time soon.

Since Neo seems to have completely forgotten about this... I'll just call it here. It's about time the prizes were handed out, right? It's almost been a month...
So, the winner is... Doodleshark! For winning the IPA Away competition, you get:
TM13 (Ice Beam)
TM31 (Brick Break)
TM40 (Aerial Ace)
And 500 IC!
The TMs reflect the attacks of the Rental IPA you chose so if you can't use any of them right now... um, go catch something that CAN learn them.
As for the other three competitors... Cheesey did put up a good fight and Neo and Josiah's battle could've gone either way if it wasn't taking too long, so you're not leaving here empty handed. Runners up get an IPA Ball...
And 250 IC. Now, here's an idea - why don't you spend it at the pound? Come on, someone has to adopt my Teto!

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Well. Thanks to the Time Warp we've lost... about twelve pages of IPA Away goodness. I don't have the data on the rental IPA any more (except for the ones that returned from last year, who can be found a few pages back), or of who beat who this time around... but I do have the scores, as I mentioned in the Apprentice thread. And they look like this:
Doodle - 55
Saber - 80
Cheesey - 50
Sims - 35
Gar - 30
Josiah - 105
Kaida - 55
Terra - 30
The N00b - 65
auragongal - 25
As you can see, Josiah completely dominated, and Saber was pretty darn good too. That's why they get these special prizes:
Josiah-
WAIPA Ball - IPA's Ultra Ball.
Star Dust Coin - Causes Wild IPA to drop IC somehow. It's... currently being researched.
Quick Beak - Attacks first sometimes (10% activation, like all such items); always works for Flying-typed attacks.
...And 500 IC.
Saber-
AIPA Ball - IPA's Great Ball.
Star Dust Coin - Causes Wild IPA to drop IC somehow. It's... currently being researched.
Bright Glasses - Lowers opposing IPA's accuracy slightly and increases the effect of Accuracy Lowering moves.
...And 250 IC.
But because we value your participation, we're going to send everyone - that means you, loser - home with a complementary IPA Ball. Hooray!

It was lonely... you promised you'd write to me, but you never did... the months passed by, and I still thought of you every day, but you never called. I never got any letters from you.
So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*
