Intercity League, Spring/Summer 2005

Don_Quijote + porcupine = 1/6 + 1/6 = Team - 2/3

DQ
--waiting for corrections

[Lardarse]

1 little problem there...

By my calculations, we've got at least 8 on the team:

Me
Paul
DQ
pine
Elttil
reikja
Flöhli
Esterio
coolala
Jocelyn
Bromios

Oops, that's 11...

We finished the last season with 9 active players so I guess we were all worth 1/9. But we'll be adding a few for the next season so if we get all the way to 12 we'll each be 1/12. Now, if we each give 110% effort that'll be 1,320%. As we can all see, this is equivalent to 660 gallons of 2% milk, which comes from cows. Cows like to moo. The moo sound is heard when a player takes points in 6nimmt, which is bad because you don't want points. If you ask a German player whether they like to hear the moo when their card is played they will say, "nein", which is pronounced the same as the English word "nine" which is how many active players were on our team at the end of last season.

Now, where was I...

[porcupine]

 ......the "at least 1/6" was refering to the minimum number of players a team needs........

I'm also happy to simply be a cheerleader for the cows if that's the role the teamcaptains asign to me but only if I get to drink 1/2 of the milk.  

[Esterio]

Not sure how much I'll be able to play, at least in the first few weeks of the league. But I will try - depending on the games, too.

Our team goes to 11.  Just in case 10 is not enough and you need that extra push.  We have 11.

(Don't know why that movie popped into my mind)

No way!  Everyone plays who wants to.

[Lardarse]

pine, you officially have a fight on your hands for the milk...

btw, I like mine cold

If we need reenforcement we can still ask for help:

The Magnificient Seven
The Fantastic Four
Snowhite's Seven Dwarfs
The Three Little Pigs (without the wolve, please)
The Three Musketeers
The Twelve Disciples
The Four Non Blondes

... but I guess this would completly mess up the math we did so far...

DQ
--feeling very constructive today

P.S.: If they all accept, how many team members would we have?

[Lardarse]

11, I think. 12 if we include hinj, who I haven't seen online recently.

That reminds me: If your name isn't included in the list at the top of this page, and you want to be included on the team, then speak now, or forever hold your peace!

Our 11 plus those 40 will give us 51. Hey, there's a BSW city named Area 51, maybe we'll play against them. However, I don't think many of those DQ mentioned are prominent game players. Grumpy is the only dwarf who can play a decent game; Sleepy takes forever because of the narcolepsy, and Dopey tends to eat the pieces. The disciples (well, at least 11 of them) tend to play poorly until the end of a game and then try to pull a miracle. Yul Brynner is the only one of the Magnificent Seven who I think is a gamer. He was born in Russia so ought to be a natural at StP. And if they add Ra to the game list he'll be a natural since he played Rameses in The Ten Commandments. The three musketeers would probably stab the pigs and bar-b-que them over a spit. The non blondes are still trying to get up that great big hill of hope so I doubt their available. That leaves the Fantastic Four who would probably serve best as cheerleaders, except not The Invisible Woman because you can never tell when she's there.

Our team goes to 11.  Just in case 10 is not enough and you need that extra push.  We have 11.

You just can't beat a good Spinal Tap reference.

Yep, just add your name if you want to play...  don't worry about telling us what games you play.  We already know.

When we get closer (we have a good month before we start), people can give us an idea on how light\heavy a game load they want.  With 11 players no one should have a heavy game load who doesn't want it.

At least, for this season... unless you see us perform badly and want to join is for doing better!!!

Have fun playing the City League, Munchkins!!

If you need help with translations don't hesitate to ask.

What is a Stellvertreter?  Translator did not give me a clear idea on this one.
