New Zapper 2012 Rdound Two Scoreboard

[cliff]

You'll note below that Board Two is already in the process of being reposted with Jvanmechelen and Gkthomas replacing Dmitryogoblin and Krambambuli. Simple reason for my jumping the gun by a day: I have a medical appointment tomorrow and may not remember to do it then!

Hmmmm.... Interesting thing about “What's Sportsmanship” - you never know with these 'Expansion Teams'! So far in Round Two, they have a new Captain in John (Johnb), and the Captain of “The Beerdrinkers” is joining the team on Board Two! If it should turn out that Asoka doesn't join by the 26th, he'll be replaced too! And “What's Sportsmanship” will be 60% composed of players from the eliminated “Beerdrinkers”!

Is this a weird Zapper, or what?

[islanderfan]

this sucks worse than Montreal winning the cup.

[cliff]

Wait until you see the latest scores!

Gets even worse!

[ecperreault]

LOLOL!!!!!
I see a pattern...
ANYBODY def. Islanderfan
Ouch!

[cliff]

Actually, Eugene, Keep 'Em Checkmated has done pretty well the last week or so! They haven't lost a game!

(...of course they haven't won or drew any either, but why dwell on the negative, eh?)

Just state it like it is, Cliff!!!
HEADLINE: FLASH !!!
Islanderfan UNDEFEATED This Week !!!
Story on page B6.

[cliff]

Brian has hired a free-lance agent of George's security staff, and asked him to take a look at Keep 'Em Checkmated's woes, and come up with a solution...



I don't think he's gonna stick with the job, somehow!

[ecperreault]

Hee hee!!!!
Too funny!!!
Brian, you are a great sport.

[islanderfan]

the list is getting longer....

2012 Zapper Special Awards!

Dateline: Wednesday, October 17, 2012. (Grunky Park, Greenland)

It is a great pleasure as 'Tournament Dictator' (my new title!), to proffer the following special 2012 Zapper honours:

To Pwillows (Pete) and Tmitchell (Mitch), I present the 2012 “Fogerty Fegan” award;

for Bravery & Valour far beyond the call of duty! When Katagamsky and Pcmvr, from Team Tyr and Keep 'Em Checkmated respectively, abdicated on Board One, Pete and Mitch took their places against powerhouse players Asoka and Iamachessstudent! Talk about long odds!



Well done, fellows! Jeff would have been proud!

And, the “Phoenix” award goes to the entire Beerdrinkers team! The captain, Jvanmechelen (Jan), and players, Gkthomas (Gerald), Johnb (John), Pwillows (Pete), & Tmitchell (Mitch), who proved, much like Spock, 'dead' isn't always 'dead!'



Despite the team being eliminated in Round One, the entire roster is back in play in Round Two, filling the void left by the AWOL participants, preventing a long tournament delay, and saving the beloved (?) Tournament Dictator many problems! Thanks, guys!

Finally, with great sympathy, the “Captain Smith” award goes to Islanderfan (Brian).



He's watched himself and his team, Keep 'Em Checkmated drop their first twelve games in the 2012 Zapper Medal Round, pretty much nixing any chance of medals before the event is a third over!

Next year, , rumour has it he's been offered a job coaching the Toronto Maple Leafs! Who says things can't get any worse?
