Count me in!

I've paid my dues, what did I win??

I came across a couple interesting threads that stated that they were pitching two yeast strains into one beer. I tried to do some research to see why one would do that but I couldn't find anything that explicitly said what effects this has on a beer. Can someone try to explain it for me? Why...

Thanks Yooper - That's what I figured... I think I will follow through with it but start another batch and do it right this time... Didn't get very good efficiency out of the mash (mostly because I forgot to sparge with the 3 gallons I was missing, 65%). It was a nice first try though.

I just tried brewing a 5 gallon batch of Cream Ale, a recipe that I made up... After the boil, I only had about 2 gallons of wort (might have forgotten to fly sparge...). I continued to add 3 gallons of cold water into the fermenter. Any ideas how this will effect the end product? I don't...
