From a tournament I was playing and and TDing:
Rigour6: Hi guys, I am playing, so can't come to tables. Is there a problem at Tables 1 and 6?
(pause)
Rigour6: Whoops, I am at Table 6. So obviously that is what the problem is here.
(longer pause)
Rigour6: I am not at Table 6. I promise to quit drinking and TDing.
