The teams did not start to assemble until we
arrived for the first night because we weren’t certain until then whether we’d
be playing with three-man or four-man teams, but my spirits were boosted when I
saw a post online earlier that afternoon from T-Cow calling for “DIBS ON TIVIA”
because it’s always nice to be wanted first for a team. Then once we got there,
Axman and I decided to team up as well since we had very similar thoughts about
how we hoped to see things go. The final addition was Saiyan Prince once we were
told we’d go with teams of four. And that’s how we formed our new team called “Game
of Groans”.
Credit to Cecily for that team name. We’ll be
playing this league against four other teams including the THP (Try-Hard Paradise),
Psychopaths, Rainbow Six and my favorite team name of all…Oooof.
We will be playing a different format every
night we play and this first evening we got ready to play the three-team
Masters format. Things started off very well and we came up for strategy that seemed
to work nicely. I won’t get into it now just in case we may need to use it
again. ;)
We were undefeated for the first four games
which is certainly a solid way to begin. However, we were running neck and neck with
THP who had also won four and they came in second in one. So, when we played
our fifth game and came in second that meant that we were tied with THP and still
had to go up against them once more in the final game of the night. At this
point we played hard, but not quite hard enough and we took second to them
meaning we ended the first night with 10 tourney points and they had 11.
Fortunately we have plenty more weeks to try to take back that lead. The final point
tally for night one was:
THP: 11
Game of Groans: 10
Oooof: 5
Rainbow Six: 4
Psychopaths: 0
In fairness, I want to point out that the
Psychopaths were down a player for most of the night due to a sunburn that was
really aggravated by putting on a pack. All teams played with heart, and it
should be fun to see how this plays out.
Meanwhile, I have plenty of tag adventures
left before the next league night. I might even rep for Syracuse by wearing my
new member jersey that just came in.
It’s a sharp look that our Syracuse guys will
be sporting at Nats this week. Best of luck in Detroit!
