“Well the all night voodoo-binge fest the girls participated in the night before this match really payed off. It seemed like they could do no wrong-- block after block came up pow. This game was an example of how good luck really makes a solid team and strategy shine.
One need only look at the luck ratings to see how lopsided this game was. The sad thing was that the lopsidedness had little to do with skill and much more to do with the randomness that only a game totally based on dice rolls can bring.
The win was bittersweet as The Cheese Stands Alone inadvertantly seriously injured 1 and killed another of the opponent's ranks. The truly virtuous ladies deeply regret dealing this fate to any opponent.
But on the plus side, 4 team members leveled up as a direct result of this match. 2 rolled doubles and 1 rolled +ag, with no aging. In addition, the team's fan factor went up, showing that the the fans really do respect logic.
ChristianKnudsen was a graceful and pleasant opponent. He played well-- quite skillfully-- it's a shame the dice didn't end up more in his favor. I would recommend a match with him very highly.
"Right. Bananas. How to defend yourself against a man armed with a banana. Here you, take this. Now, it's quite simple to defend yourself against the banana fiend. First of all you force him to drop the banana; next, you eat the banana, thus disarming him. You have now rendered him helpless. "

“Oh man, Nuffle turned his face from the Cthulhuites tonight - or at least he turned his face to the Cheesy Amazons, who handed the Cthulhuites one of their worst spankings ever.
I only managed to throw 20 blocks this entire game, because my team spent most of the match either out of action, thanks to routinely high Armour rolls, or on the pitch, thanks to near perfect Blocking dice from the Cheezers.
In taking this game I broke a promise to myself to never play Amazon/Norse teams, as they are way too spoofy. Boy was I proved right in this one - that Blodge/Guard combo on a significant portion of the enemy is hard to counter, especially when the other team is lucky and you aren't.
Income from this game was pitiful, the Apothocary failed to stop another KIA (RIP Formless Spawn), but at least the FF didn't drop. Back to the drawing board.
Goodnametaken was a tough opponent who would have likely beaten me even had the luck differential not been higher. He was a good sport, felt bad about killing my guy, and had the decency not to laugh about the Blitz result he got against me after he scored on his turn 15. I would recommend playing against him any old time.
"As a foulness shall ye know them"
Cthulhu Fthagn!”
