You boys had better bring some Tylenol. The Agents of Orange are about to bring the pain.

So where's the Official TurD? Still on his honeymoon, I hope.

The TurD has returned like a bad... wait... what could be worse??

Players without partners yet:
QueenCityGuitars (Bryan)
Daniel
tcb37 (Tom)
Danerada

OK yous guys without partners - it's time to put up or wuss out - COMMIT!!
Alan and Vaughn - you need a team name or I will dub you "Nancy and Nancy".
We also still need someone to be the Game Commissioner and work the schedule and Master of Ceremonies.

Edit : See post 10 for the latest.

I could have sworn 3-Mike signed up as the MC. No?

3-Mike?

Also, QueenCity is a ringer so pair him with someone who has never played so the rest of us have a chance.

I thought Vaughn had already submitted our name - if not, go ahead, Vaughn.

Had my first training session tonight. Did not go well.
 
OK, there are a few problems to work out. We have neither an MC nor a Game Commissioner. That means we have no schedule, no rules and no one to announce either.

The schedule is problematic. There are events that people want to see and I have no idea what events which people just can't miss.

The best I can do is to create a J-Ladder which I will try to reproduce at XPRS13 somehow. I propose double elimination to rule out freakishly good (and poor) performances. I'll post the J-Ladder shortly.

The other problem is that Alan and Vaughn faile to name their team, so as the Official TurD, I shall name them: "No-Name Nancys".

I'm assigning teams to the 4 players who failed to team up.

Queen City Guitars will team with Daniel for no particular reason. Their team name is: "The Procrastinators."

tcb37 will team with Danerada and their team name is "Late To The Party."

Objections to the pairing on the J-ladder and/or team names will be entertained by the TurD following the submission of a 'brisket sandwich and coke' evaluation fee.

Oh no, you're practicing!???! Well, sorry I dropped the ball...I didn't get a reply from you so I didn't submit anything.

I was gonna suggest "The Unnamed", I somehow missed your last post. I suppose I've been called worse than Nancy before.

I'll have a glass - heavy pulp please:)
 
Attention TurD!!!
Due to circumstances beyond his control Dblack25 will not be able to attend PRSX. I'm happy to welcome any unassigned player to team "Angrier than Larry". I also think you had him down as the referee...which I'm not sure was Kosher...but he won't be able to make it.
Sorry about the short notice.

OK - I'm leaving team "Angrier Than Larry" in the roster - perhaps you can find a willing bystander to team with...

Here is the j-ladder:

Hans and Shawn are gonna feel pretty bummed out getting beat by a sissy in a pink shirt and a dude with a shaved chest in the first game of the season.
 
Cleaning up:

With no Game Commissioner, no MC and no referees, I announce the following rules:

1. Jungle rules.
2. No 'spinning'.
3. Just about every damn thing else is legal.
4. If you want more rules - both teams must agree to them before each match up.

I will have copies of the J ladder with me and will attempt to post one near the table.

With that, I say,

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
