“My second game ever without journeymen skinks! And what a game it was! We played the orcs bashing game; they bashed and got cas/KO's. We blocked 25% more, and got.. knockdowns. Lots and lots of them. Even Crunch was knocked out on his own block. The orcs trampled over everything, and had the game completely and utterly dominated.

Until turn 4 of the second half. 1-0 for Stomp Mayhem, Greenie holds the ball, 5 black orcs and orc blitzers surround him, lizardmen are on the ground all over the pitch; and for whatever reason, Shreeft is upright, standing next to Greenie. Shreeft who has played 39 games without ever doing anything of note, who claims MVP's all over the place for no particular reason. Shreeft blitzes Greenie, Str 2 vs Str 4+5=9. -3dblock, no re-roll available. Pow, pow/push, pow/push. Greenie goes down, the ball goes flying, Shreeft dodges away from 4 tacklers, picks up the ball, and sprints all the way to the end zone line. But he simply doesn't have the oomph to cross the line. Then Wa? blitzes Shreeft, knocks him down, and knocks the ball into the end zone.. and Shreeft, with the help of a Skink who was on the line of scrimmage in the opposite wide zone, blitzes Wa?, picks up the ball, and SCORES!

Stomp Mayhem then puts a very heavy north cage up for recieving the ball; but Shrieking Bloodstorm manage to kick the ball to the very edge of the south wide zone! Only one orc can reach the ball, and only one other orc can even get close to the south wide zone! Lizardmen hurtle through the opening, putting 7, count it, 7 lizardmen between these two orcs and the rest of their entire team!

And then.. then the orc with the ball, goes for it! goes for it again! does a long bomb pass through Saurel to a random black orc, completes the pass, and saves Stomp Mayhem from utter embarassment.

Congrats to DaGreenskin. The first half was utterly yours, the second half was utterly luck, for both of us, and Shreeft is a happy man. We don't know why Tcaloc got MVP. For once Shreeft should have recieved it, in spades, but he did not.

Ah Nuffle you fickle fickle god.”
