Many many thanks to Lynn Parkin for running the games on the 14th. I did a winter escape to some warm weather on the ocean. It was marvelous. Below are the results for the 14th and the 21st and below that are the results for the season so far. I hope that all of you had a marvelous Christmas and connected with family and friends. I managed to eat way too much turkey, stuffing, etc. etc. etc. It was good! I'll see you on Sunday!!
Last Sunday's games marked the beginning of the Winter season of Tugby. Last Sunday saw the return of Jean Quartz. Welcome back Jean... good to see you! I will be leaving on vacation tomorrow (Dec 12th) and won't be back until the 20th. Lynn Parkin has agreed to run the games. Many many thanks to Lynn! The results are below.
Last Sunday's games brought to a close the Fall Tugby Season. Lynn led the field with total games won of 30 and an outstanding win percentage of 69.8%. Congrats to Lynn. Next Sunday will be the start of the Winter Season of Tugby. I do want to let you all know that I will be gone on December 14th, and will need someone else to run the games. I will be at sea off the coast of California! See you Sunday the 7th! Last Week's Results: 1 / 5 ALLIE 1 / 1 BURT 3 / 5 CARLA 3 / 5 DAGGER 1 / 5 JUSTIN 4 / 5 LYNN 2 / 4 YASMIN
We had two new players last Sunday. One was Justin Blade (stevell) and the other was Steve (Steve.Trenchard). A big tugger welcome to you two!! You braved the field and did VERY well. I hope that all of you who are in the U.S. managed to survive Turkey Day. When I count my blessings, one that I count is the friends that come to play Tugby. Thank you for having fun!! Hope to see you on the 30th! Results for last week: 1 / 3 ALLIE 1 / 3 DAGGER 3 / 3 FORREST 1 / 3 JUSTIN 1 / 3 LYNN 1 / 2 NBER 1 / 1 STEVE and for the season (next Sunday will be the end of the Fall Season).
A good group of Tuggers and a good set of games. The "tilt" mentioned in my last dispatch seems to have resolved itself with the Red Team winning 3 of the 5 games and the Green Team winning 2 of the 5. The Fall Season ends on November 30th and right now Lynn and Forrest are neck and neck. There are three components (in my humble opinion) to having the most wins. First is a luck component (since teams are randomly drawn - some teams are better than others). The second component is skill - other things being equal, your skill will help. The third is simply coming to play! So come on out and play with us. Last Sunday's results: 1 / 3 ALLIE 1 / 2 BURT 3 / 5 CARLA 2 / 5 DAGGER 3 / 5 FORREST 5 / 5 LYNN 0 / 5 YAS Cumulative results:
The Linden Gods smiled on us last Sunday. There was "no" lag anywhere to be found on Santa Cruz. There DID seem to be some concern that the Tugby Pitch was tilted with the Red end down. That would help to explain the domination by Green teams. Those of you that played last Sunday are now famous. Erin68 Frog was filming the action and has posted it to YouTube. Take a look. I have told her that she had the time of play wrong.
On the Sunday after Halloween, we had a great group of Tuggers and very good games. Forrest had a GREAT day being on the winning team four out of four games. The individual scores are below, and the cumulative scores for the season. Below THAT is a picture of yours truly who found a GREAT Halloween avatar! Many thanks to Allie Tomsen for both taking the picture and for the comments. 1 / 4 ALLIE 0 / 1 BURT 1 / 4 CARLA 2 / 4 DAGGER 4 / 4 FORREST 2 / 3 LYNN 2 / 4 YAS
