Just make sure that there isn't any raspberry mook or some other stuff in those sweets - makes 'ims grumpy!
If you fill my chocolate with non-chocolate things like raspberry-flavored cream or coconut, you will be injured.

Blushin like a school girl :)
Nice Job Tally!
Even though my team didnt do so hott heres a little somethin from me
Baklava!
I little something for those nights around the camp fire....
An apple for ya Tal...
.
What apple
Well, call the paddywagon Tally, cause the championship was fubar. Something about missing -Z-, lagging, hosting, servers, and the like. We have the right to remain silent, any scrum we swipe can and will be used against us in a quart of milk.
Why has thou forsaken us, oh great -Z-? Someone give him a call and make sure he's ok.
I think we'd like to try to replay one or both games, possibly Monday at 6PM pacific. We need someone to host a server, since no one on Teams 1/11 has the right combination of bandwidth, computer muscle, and horse sense. I think it all might work out thi...OH NO, it's THE HAMMER!!!!!!!! Please gi
What the hell happened
As I remember it:
1. -z- had agreed to host a server. At 8PM, it was nowhere to be found. -z- could not be located.
2. Jangles tried to host the game, everyone had lag.
3. Bolo tried to host the game, lag was worse for some.
4. I tried to host the game, lag was bad for some.
5. Tanky tried to host the game, everything seemed good. A few minutes into the game, he reported lag due his slow computer. The game went on, with Team 11 beating Team 1, 11-7. Tanky pulled the plug.
6. Everyone reconviened. Jangles agreed to host and everyone put up with the lag. A few minutes into the game, Jangles reported excessive lag on his computer, and the game was scrapped, more or less, with general confusion.
7. There was some talk concerning Nipplegate. Someone spilt beer on Jangles' shag rug.
8. Ben had to leave... Bedtime or sickness I think.
9. There was talk of playing a second game on Monday at 6PM pacific, keeping the first game of 11-7 intact. There was also talk of replaying both games on Monday at 6PM Pacific. We're not really sure what is the right thing to do.
10. Everyone agreed that we would need someone else to host a game. I added that having that person actually host the game would be even better.
11. People cried. People just sat down and wept like babies.

By the way guys if z and tally dont work out, our friend trigun offered to host. Somebody contact prey, aza, and sluggy and ask if we can have a backup plan. Between all servers we should be able to find something we like. Thanks.
When sunday comes, im showing off my new appliance.
The Golden Hammer of Tally-Whacker (now with more more smite-power)! Capable of pulverizing 2 teams with one swing! Whammo!!! Nobody wins! Tally keeps the prize! Bwah! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
<ahem>
Seriously, with about 4 servers dedicated to your cause, this game better happen. I don't want the new tournament to be delayed, dammit.
- Bomb...James Bomb
Yeah it better happen.
Great games folks here is a view of our trophy.

Characteristically tacky, but...
Congratulations. :)
Cool site Hanksta! But, I couldn't find that silver skin of yours. Would it be okay, maybe you can share that with us before you go? 0J0 k0zer@yahoo.com

Great graphic tanky... Could I have that skin u put me in.....
Must say that both teams mutually enjoyed the fierce competition. We all played really well as a team. It really shows that the team that plays together better wins in the end over single player powerhouses...
I think both teams proved that strategic shooting is a really a strong advantage in scrum... Both teams killed and recycled a million times!!! No campers or divers. Everyone was moving and shooting all the time!!!
A special thanks to -z- who hosted and monitored the games and to tally for his management.....
I also want to thank my teammates for taking me in and showing me what it takes to be a real team player. I hope to be good competition for everyone in their absence. Im sorry I wont be seeing hanky or j around in game much anymore..sob sob...
The games were unlike any I have ever played before... Never a crowd hunting down the flag carrier or a gang of people fighting for the flag around the goal. It was more of a game of staying alive long enough to pass to a team member or to score. When not having the flag it was killing and blocking as much as possible before getting killed. Everyone pulled their weight pretty equally with the point differences mostly due to spawns... As jangles says, "there are no heros"
GG all!!!!!!!!!!!
Bolo
@Kozer I posted my l my Personal Scrum Steeler I got many request for this one.
Pick it up here.
@ bolo you can get all the skins as well...Take care bud
Yep, good game all. Congrats to Team 1.
For those who want to know, here are the scores:
This one was as close as they get folks! Both teams showed a lot of teamwork and great skill; the game could have easily gone either way. Sometimes the scrum bounces your way, sometimes it doesn't. :)
Thanks again to -z- for hosting, JB for serving as a backup, and Tally for organizing.

Woot we Finally Completed a Tournament!!!
For everything there is a First
Nice graphics hank
Are most goin to the Halo scene?
Halo is a decent game, but the community aspect blows. Someone want to buy my coaster collection?
..halo is a cool game, the population is huge. Thats why I jsut stick to one server everytime I play usually ugw or drunken dragons....yea and thanks tally for arranging the 3on3 I had a blast palying no seriously a blast
I've been so busy recently, I haven't had time to post. First, I would like to thank Tally for pulling off a wicked job of organizing this tourney. You did it, man! Great work!
A big TY to -Z- for hosting. I went so far as using my friend's G5 in case we needed a back up host with massive CPU power. But, once again, you pulled it off.
An even bigger TY to Team 11 for showing great sportmanship and providing us with a truly entertaining and fiercely competitive match. I was amazed at the great strides Ben and LC50 have made as scrum players. Dar has always been a prodigy, but those two are a tandem to watch out for - not unlike Tanky and I. The match was played on the two largest maps and their shooting prowess certainly proved effective. It was interesting to see how similar Team 11's strategy - recycling, killing, recycling - was to ours. One very close match!
This isn't the Academy awards, so I won't thank my teammates. They already know they did me proud.
Jangles
Tata amigo.
It would be awesome to be able to view replays of some of these matches! Especially the finals!
Isn't there a way to record TT matches? I believe there is.
Also, I highly advise Best 2 out of 3 as TG suggested! Can you imagine that third match for the finals???
Each team won a game and the totals were 18-17...so the tie-breaking game would have been amazing.
Maybe next time?
Bracketology.
