pretty sure nicholas I was not called nicholas I and was just called nicholas

It's not obvious to me, and he does need a number, since there were two. But I'll take your word for it. Will take me a minute to recalculate the scores.

That's what I am talking about. His peeps called him Csar Nicholas, so I call him Csar Nicholas. We go back like that. We used to go to the swap meet together.
