ASLOK XXXIII - Official TD AAR

[Sparafucil3]

You left out the important part...what crazy balanced was used? They have played this scenario to death year after year. They should have balanced dialed in by now. Hopefully MMP asked them for advice on the upcoming reissue of that scenario.

The balance changes every year. When Rock Boy changes hand, sides are switched and you start the next year from scratch. The balance moves slowly until the sides change and you start over again. -- jim

For the ignorant and unwashed masses - what is that Rock Boy? Is it Rock Sgt Dan in a conveniently cast into concrete? Is there a picture?

It is a small plastic viking holding a rock over his head. -- jim

Thanks again Brett and Bill for an outstanding Oktoberfest. I'm already planning for next year.

 

[Perry]

Thanks to Bret Hildebran, the best TD around, ASLOk remains an outstanding success.

 

[Perry]

Perry was there to discuss this with them.

Perry was just obtaining balance suggestions for the Deluxe Redux pack. What those four do in the wee hours is up to them. I surely did not stick around.

No one in his right mind (EXC: when playing a mini final or GROFAZ game) will stick around when those four have their Viking War Party.

Bret should rent them a separate meeting room for the night. Maybe using savings on all the leftover pizza, which can feed a small Viking village.

I will add as a side-note that I have been made world cup co-USA-MVP for my decision to show up after the world cup play had finished. I would like to thank all those who made my achievement possible.

I disagree!! Granted I have known 2 of them for 20+ years and the other two nearly as long but you MUST experience the battle that is To the Last Man for Rock Boy!!!!

Should be on everyone's bucket list... note, it helps to keep up with them in the drinking department.

I always watch that game. It's asl at its purest.

"Devil Squads: Our lone undecided plaque as Ed Beekman and Ray Woloszyn are currently dueling. Ed has been preparing his concession speech, but has declined to give it as of yet..."

Finished at 13:30 Sunday instead of Saturday night. I did not get a concession speech but one of Ed's great game commentaries made me laugh so hard I almost fell out of my chair. The final act in this Hatten drama was worthy of a "Hey Vern, watch this!" moment when Ed did a FPF with his 9-1 leader and MMG Squad against my CE Sherman. A commentary on the high morale level of the leader was followed by boxcars on the shot and then a white flag.

Many thanks to Dave, Brett and Bill and everybody else for a great time!

Funny, I always lose to Jack Daniels.

Try it without the rocks...

Cold As Ice: Mikko Lukkari proves that the Finns are kings of the ice and snow with a late night win over JR VanMechlen who faced the full fury of a slightly drunken Finn who had 7 hours to work himself into a frenzy waiting for JR's semifinal game to finish.
Wrongway's Ready or Revise?: Mike Reed triumphs over Jonathan Kay to bring home his 2nd wood.
