Game 10
Something seemed a bit repetitive about last nights game. It might have been the poison battle, which played out identically to last weeks, although thankfully, much faster. Same pissing result though, with Dom beating out Leighton for two more points, and a total of twelve. There are so many little point icons on Dom’s bio page now that it crashed my computer when I tried to update his page. On the Dom web page note though, he tried to write his own bio page? That’s not how this works, I pay for and update the site so that I can talk as much shit about all the other players who are kicking my ass as I want. But I’ll take your submission into consideration, uninteresting, dry and self-fellating as it may be. Seriously though, I don’t mean to single you out Dom, it’s just that you have almost twice as many points as your nearest competitor and six times as many as me. Plus your bocci style borders on sacrilege. I can’t denigrate your skills though, that kick shot is fucking deadly.
But back to the subject at hand, Leighton’s additional point brings him into a tie for second with Boyd, and through the magic of a non-numerically based ranking system, brings John up to third place despite the fact that he scored no points. Jeff and Melanie also won their games, which doubled both of their points to 2 each. Kudos to Jeff for his impressive display of marksmanship during the last turn of our game.
There was discussion of a semi-seasonal bracketed game (the top 5 players on one course and divided by points all the way down), similar to those in a bowling league. We can’t change rules mid-season, but most people who were still there at the end seemed to like the idea of trying it out at someplace like Wash Park and considering it for next year.
Also discussed loudly and angrily, and for the third week in a row, was the issue of the starting post positions for the poison battle. Nothing new was settled on, other than that we should probably either find or rewrite the rulebook. So if you’re the one who’s hiding the fucking thing, please give it back so that it can be waved around wildly and gestured at during these discussions. Either that, or we should buy a striped shirt and a conch.
