Welcome to reports of the unlucky, certainly for the Dracs, Week 13.
But first a word from the sponsor. Long weekends getting you down, feeling
withdrawal blues as both City Guard and Empire are shut down? Well, play some
games. Somebody has to give the irksome Worriers a run!
The Dracs and Dames could no longer avoid the Worriers. They got the kickoff,
lost the ball, got it back and plowed thru the last defender to score halfway
thru the half. Then a great kick and the orc thrower merely covered the ball,
didn't pick it up. Foolish vamps went charging thru. Oops, hail mary. A
simple blitz and quick orc score. Still enough time for quick vamp score, but
crowd riot quashed that. Second half, first play the orcs mary'd it again, but
this time the vamps got there first and secured the ball. However they had big
problems moving from so far back in their half, and while controlling it for
nearly all the half, finally lost the ball a third time in the drive, all to the
hits of Dauntless Orc, who never missed a pow in 4 attempts on ball carriers.
And by this time there were too few players left. A couple of vamps hit the orc
ball carrier with good shots, but couldn't get him off his feet, and he scored
the winning try with seconds left. Dracs are now official also-rans. Worriers
seem officially vastly ahead.
Midnight Suns played a short-handed squad (courtesy of previous human team) of
Chaos Pact. CP thought a chain saw and bomber would help, but the game opened
with the 'sawer losing his own legs. So much for that. At least CP scored a
couple, but are now faciing a bottom table battle vs the Dracs. 3-2 score. 3-1
cas. Both in favour of Suns. 27k.
Streetbowl had 220 highly amused and unstable fans. No Idea norse vs Midday
Suns. Game opened as tavern opened. Tavern had happy hour. Consequently 4
players from each side actually showed up on the street. One side scored,
everyone enjoying themselves too much to notice which. At kickoff, a donkey
came out and left with two more enamoured players. Other team scored, the
thrower finding himself at the wrong end, hey, and went for it. Kick off, and
out came the gold bag. Greed over goal, and no try. Score 1-1 Cas 1-1.
Hangovers 6-4.
