IBL Week 6 Games and News

The Sunday night results are repeated below, except for an error in the second division outcomes which has been corrected. Monday night results are at the very end, along with the new format which now also shows each player's point changes summed up over the 3 games.

Verbal rundown:

There were 3 divisions on Sunday. In div 6a1 (week 6, night a, div 1) Max is welcomed back from his 3-week hiatus with an 0-3 drubbing. Fish joins IBL as a standin for sluggo (who fell victim to UC-LAg) and posts a winning record to defend his instant top 10 ranking. True to his word, BM plays on both nights and advances into the top 10 with his 3-3 record in div 6a1 and 6b1. In div 6a2, Ender was booted from the computer lab before the 3rd game could be played. In div 6a3, Ghoul was an emergency standin for Godot (weird MCI net lag), saving the division so I could crash and burn 0-3 with the biggest point loss (202). But I'm not bitter! :)

On Monday night, there were 2 divisions (Will and Ghoul sat out). In div 6b1, Samhain pulls away from the pack, asserting his top ranking with a 3-0 sweep. Bleak accumlates a 3-2 record against tough opponents in 6a2 and 6b1 to return to the top 10. Div 6b2 of Ender, Nutz, Mel, Washin was ruined when Ender walked out an hour into the 1st game, claiming he was too drunk!

News:

Will and I are considering a new rule where, in the event that there are not enough people to form complete divisions, instead of dropping those who are ranked lowest, we would drop those who show up last. Let this be an incentive to show up WELL BEFORE 8 pm eastern (and beware of daylight savings time which is lurking...). BTW the following don't count as showing up early... show up early, say you're playing, then disappear until 8:05, or showing up *at* 8 pm and forcing us all to wait for you to struggle with the bot. It's rude to make everybody else wait, and in the future we won't.

That's all for now... remember, if you love bolo, keep it alive, play IBL!
