Here's a photo of Team PH going out for pizza after they were declared the winners. "We were already prepared, but practiced for an extra two hours before the match began anyway. It was sort of disappointing, with what happened with Japan, but a win is a win," said Sonny Carlos, IP e-Games assistant (Editor's note: Carlos handed an old business card with his former official designation by mistake.) product manager for Supreme Destiny. Most of the members were at the Team PH HQ at i-Hooked Cafe in Katipunan. One even flew in from Cebu to join the team here. Other team members logged on to the Kingdom War Map remotely from Cebu, and one even as far away as Korea.
