The end is almost in sight... only 1 last week left in IBL this season! Lets end this last week of IBL Year 1 with style! Please show up early and test your lag in 4 player games with a variety of people. Thinking ahead to summer, we'll probably take a few weeks off and then resume again sometime in late May or early June. It remains to be seen if we'll have more people or less during summer.
Recap of week 9:
There were 2 divisions on Sunday and 3 on Monday. In Sunday div 9a1, Cliffa lost 0-3 against tough competition from Santa, Mel, and BM. In 9a2, Flag pulled the minor 3-0 upset against GreaterThan (returning after weeks of MCAT study), Will, and Usher. On Monday 9b1, BM's lag unfortunately ended play after 1 game. In 9b2, Ender predictably won 3-0 against Mel, Jedi, and Will in a series of games which Jedi ruefully described as "base rape base rape spike spike spike". Finally in 9b3, 2 different people lagged and no games were played by Godot, OO7, Drad, and newcomer Triton.
