Game 1 started with a Castaway flurry, but then a Acroholic counterattack by Painpill and Heather Anne evened things out. Moon won the last two rounds to pull away, taking Painpill to face-off. Unfortunately, pain got booted before the face-off started, but the Castaways had already secured the victory, 102-84. Bearette captured her first Anchor Girl in some time.

Game 2 was dominated by the Acroholics the first 4 rounds, but then moon and jk came alive, winning 3 and 2 rounds respectively before going to face-off. The Castaways escaped with a 117-82 victory, with mfw edging out moose for the prized Anchor Boy trophy.

Thanks to the Acroholics for putting up with all the acroboots, and for a close match!

Game 1 saw a quick revelation as to why Moonspell enjoys playing the SLR's so much, as he racked up 41 points in 5 rounds, taking lynx to face-off with him. Final score was 95-23 Castaways.

Game 2 was a two person show, with Moon and Mmike racing to the finish line. The Castaways got the better of the supporting scores, emerging with a 97-53 victory.

Thanks to all the Slow Laners for a fun match, especially to TerryO for putting up with being robbed every round! Let's do it again soon!

The first game (sorry, no pic) featured a host of Castaways winning rounds and ShyBoy820~t~ creeping up into our ranks via a couple great acros and several speed bonuses. Eventually, Moon won the round after climbing top of Bearette and the five other Castaways in double digits. Portal, being the only unbooted C-Way not in double digits, got the first post-Clash anchor. ShyBoy820~t~ did manage to sneak past Bear to get into FO with Moon. Moon brought it home, however, with a good FO performance and took Game 1 for the Castaways.

Game 1 was Bearette's redemption for her recent self-proclaimed "acro funk". Only moonspell's last-round acro win prevented Bear from being the only acroer in double digits. After only 4 rounds, Bear and Moon went to face-off, securing the win for the Castaways.

Bearette slacked off a bit in Game 2, as it took her 5 rounds to finish off everybody else. RustyC was the lucky recipient of Bear's wrath in the face-off, and the match was won by the Castaways 2-0. Hook scored the coveted "Dual Anchor Boy" award, having to outduel Portal in game 2.

Congrats to the Family Jewels for a fun and lively match, and to Bear for breaking several Acro speed records!

Game 1 produced a number of great acros from both teams, which meant the voting was spread among a lot of players, which meant (whew) that the scores were quite high by game's end. Eventually the Castaways took charge, with Moon going to Face Off with Lynx, and Castaways holding the top 5 positions. Final game score: 121-55. Cape grabbed an Anchor Boy for his trophy shelf.

Game 2 was closer, with Lisa S and Mamaroma playing strong games for the 'holics, keeping them in the running until the end. However the Castaways again got the better of the top positions on the scoreboard, with Moon and Model going to Face Off. Final score: 95-70. Menace outbattled a few hopefuls for the night's final Anchor Boy award.

Final match score: 2-0 Castaways. Thanks to all the @@ folks for a fun and well-played match!

Game 1 was a long, high scoring battle which saw a large group of Castaways at the top of the scoreboard by game's end. Rusty took the round, but unfortunately (for us), the Taters had an ace up their sleeve, as Fire(P) edged out Bear for 2nd place. An exciting face off ensued, with Rusty emerging victorious, giving the Castaways the game!

Game 2 saw Juali zoom out to a big lead early, with Rusty and Fert joining her later in the round at the top of the leaderboard. The Taters weren't through, however, and a spirited rally by Kilroy and Fire fell just short, with Juali and Rusty going to Face Off.

This made the match score 2-0 Castaways. Thanks to the Taters for a great match, with 2 very exciting games! We're looking forward (with fear) to next month's match with couch rules :)).

Game 1 was high scoring, with Model, Moon and Rusty all breaking the 25 point barrier. In the end, Model and Moon went to Face Off, and the Castaways took the game 150 - 78. Hook dominated the battle for Anchor Boy in this one.

Game 2 saw the teams exchange wins almost every round, making for a pretty close game throughout. Late in the round, Moon pulled away from the field, with he and Model again going to Face Off (nice match you two!). The final tally in this one: 116 - 61 Castaways. Jennn won a spirited battle for the evening's final Anchor Girl crown.

Final match score: 2-0 Castaways. Thanks to the Loonies for the usual fun games!

Game 1 was something new for the Castaways - we actually chose some categories! Maybe it's an early New Year's resolution, who knows, but it seemed to work well in this case. Moonspell set a new Castaways scoring mark with a 43 point game (woo hoo!), Lynx took second, and we grabbed the top half of the leaderboard, winning 138-49. Cape held off several challengers for the night's initial Anchor Boy award.

Game 2 was a closer affair, but in the end the Castaways again pulled away to a convincing win. Juali and Lynx wnet to face off in this one, the final score ending up at 124-59. After 100+ team games, Moon walked away with his very first Anchor Boy award in this one!

Final match score: 2-0 Castaways. Thanks to the Angels for a fun match, we enjoyed the friendly banter and excellent acros!

Game 1 was a Castaways romp, with the final ending up 105-48. Jennn won the round quickly, with moon, Rusty and Tom from the Jewels' in a tie for 2nd. Tom won the tiebreaker, but Jennn beat him in the face-off for the five point bonus.

Game 2 began the same way, but the Family Jewels staged a furious comeback, winning 4 of the last 5 rounds. Tom surged ahead to win the round, with doc and moon close behind. In the end, Tom and doc went to face-off with the Castaways leading by 8 to ensure the victory. Tom won the face-off to make the final Castaways 89, Family Jewels 86.

Thanks to the Jewels for a great match and some fun competition! We're looking forward to the rematch in a couple of weeks!

Game 1 was a seesaw battle, with some amazing acros being produced by both squads. Moonspell caught fire halfway through the game to jump to the lead at game's end. After professing his distaste for Couch games (and picking "GA" for his category after a round win), Portal turned it around and snagged second place. A large group of players from each team had scores of 20+, but the Castaways got the better of the cumulative totals, winning by a 131-96 margin.

Game 2 saw the Castaways get the hang of the category-choosing thing, with some interesting and thought-provoking categories appearing. The Springers got the early jump in this game with some inspired acros. Then Jennn and Portal got hot for the Castaways, giving us the lead and some confidence. Eventually the Castaways dominated the top of the leaderboard, with several Springers close behind. Again, this was a high scoring game with many 20+ scores. Portal and Jennn went to FO, and the game went to the Castaways, 137-84.

This made the final match score 2-0 Castaways. Thanks to the Springers for some great acros and a well-played match!

Game 1 was a Moonspell show from start to end, as he dominated the field to win the round easily. Unfortunately, no other Castaway could keep up the pace, and SuperFagSK played an excellent game for the SKs to make Face Off. In a close round, Moon took the FO and gave the Castaways a 1-0 lead in the match.

The SKs made a nice comeback in game 2, with PATGEHR SK cruising to an easy round win. Colton grabbed second to go to Face Off, but Pat squeaked out a 2 point win in the FO to tie the match at 1-1.

The deciding game 3 went the Castaways' way again, with Moonspell regaining his game 1 form to take the round, Jk taking second. This gave the Castaways the game, and the match, 2-1.

Thanks to the SK folks for a well-played match, and for being patient as we rounded up a team! Congrats to everyone on our team as well - this was our 50th match win as a team, and our 100th game win as well. Way to go!!

Game 1 saw the Castaways jump out to the early lead and hold on from there for the win. Lynx blew away the field to go to FO, with Colton grabbing second. The 5 pt bonus made the final game score 113-55. Cape oubattled Moon for the Anchor Boy trophy.

Game 2 began as another Castaway romp, but ended up being much closer than the previous game as the Grunts mounted a late charge to get back into the game. Moon almost hit 40 points in winning the round, with Cape rebounding from his game 1 showing to also make the FO. Final game score: 123-79. Lynx wrestled the Anchor Girl award away from a trio of hopefuls.

This gave the match to the Castaways, 2-0. Thanks to all the Grunts for the usual inspired acroing and fun company!

Game 1 was an exciting duel, with both teams winning rounds with some excellent acros. The Castaways jumped out to an early lead, but the ERs made a late comeback, winning 4 of the last 6 rounds. Eventually 7 players topped 19 points, and Moon won the round, going to FO with Sir Galahad. The Castaways got the better of the 2-5 positions in this one, and Moon's FO win made the final score 108-81 Castaways. Menace outfought several contenders for the night's first Anchor Boy award.

The Castaways jumped out to an early lead in game 2 and never looked back. Lynx had a 16 point round in this game (woo hoo!) and eventually she and Bear went to FO. In all, 5 Castaways topped the 25 point mark by game's end, with the final tally being 145-62. Menace made headlines with his second Anchor Boy award of the evening!

Final match score: 2-0 Castaways. This was a fun match, and it was great to see old Catwalk friends Taqua, SinginByrd, Kitkatty, NuttyD, and Rascat who unmasked themselves after game 2! Excellent playing folks, hope we can do it again soon!

Game 1 was a close one from beginning to end. The two teams exchanged winning acros almost every round, with neither side getting a clear advantage. At the end, Moon and Hawkins~t~ went to Face Off. In an extremely close FO, Moon squeaked out the win, giving the Castaways a 1-0 lead in the match. Colt grabbed Anchor Boy honors in a runaway.

Game 2 started more positively for the Castaways with several early round winners going our way. However toward the game's end, Vixen~t~ got hot and ended up winning the round, with our newcomer Mfw also making the Face Off. Another close FO saw Mfw come through with the win, giving the game and the match to the Castaways! Jennn and Cape shared the Anchor 'Player' award in this one.

Thanks to the Taters for 2 extremely well-played games, we sure enjoyed it and are looking forward to our next match!

Game 1 was close and competitive right from the start. Jennn and Moon got out to good starts for the Castaways, while Logan hovered around the lead for the P}s. In the end, Jennn and Moon went to Face Off, and the Castaways got the better of the support positions on the leaderboard, winning 88-49. Lynx and Model battled throughout for the coveted Anchor Girl crown, and in the end were forced to share it.

Game 2 was a higher scoring affair, with 5 players over 17 points by game's end. Cape and Jennn (nice match, Jennn, thank goodness for those commercial breaks, eh?) led the way for the Castaways, eventually going to Face Off, and helping push the team to a 124-59 win. Colton showed the team how to dominate the competition for the Anchor Boy title in this one.

This made the final match score 2-0, Castaways. Thanks to the P}s for patience with the bot, and for getting everyone to the match despite all the connection problems. This was a fun match and we'll definitely have to do it again.

Game 1 was a close battle all the way, as the contrasting styles of the two teams made sure winners impossible to spot. The Angels seemed to prefer blondes, redheads, and cuddling, while the Castaways tended toward phrases needing either a dictionary or a fluency in Yoda-speak to fully appreciate. In the end, Moonspell won the round, but lost the Face Off to L'Smiley(?). However, the Castaways won the cumulative score in a squeaker, 79-71. Cape was victimized by a slow start in this one, winning the coveted Anchor Boy award.

In game 2, redhead acros were everywhere, even on categories where they didn't belong! Apparently, however, all the redhead votes for the night were used up in game 1, as the Castaways picked up the pace in this one, taking over the top half of the leaderboard early on, and never looking back. In the end, Colt and Cape went to Face Off (nice turnaround there Capester!), and the Castaways won the game, 161-59. Menace secured the big Anchor_o in this one :)

Thanks to the Angels for a lively match, and some fun chat!

Game 1 was a Castaways romp as we took over the top half of the leaderboard and won easily. Moon and Colton went to Face Off, with Hook getting the night's initial Anchor Boy trophy.

Game 2 was a *completely* different story, a high scoring, seesaw game that saw many lead changes and remained close until the very end. Bear and Jennn jumped out to the early lead for the Castaways, but Soul*CR* got on a roll and the CR's rallied to own four of the top 5 positions at the game's midway point. Then it was the Castaways' turn to make a charge, with Lynx and Bear again reclaiming the top spots. Moon and Colt finished close behind as Lynx and Bear went to Face Off, while Hook held off fierce challenges from several teammates to win a rare daily double in the Anchor Boy category!

This gave the game to the Castaways, making the final match score 2-0. Thanks to all the *CR*s for a great match, and an exciting finish!

Game 1 was a rather long, drawn out affair with many players reaching the 20+ point range. In the end, Moon and Jennn went to FO, giving the game to the Castaways. Cape hung on for the prized Anchor Boy award in this one.

Game 2 was a complete contrast from the first, as Moon decided to take over the match, winning by a 3-1 margin over the rest of the field. Colt got a distant second to clinch the game for the Castaways. Doc outdueled a group of hopefuls for the night's second Anchor Boy.

Final match score: 2-0 Castaways. Thanks to the Bullets for a spirited match!

Game 1 was a lengthy affair, featuring 6 players above 25 points by game's end. Batsis and Hoju led the Chaos contingent, with Hoju ringing up a 14 point win in one round. Lynx, Jk, Moon and Cape helped the Castaways stay close during the match, and at the end Lynx and Jk pulled ahead to make it to Face off, with Moon also breaking the 30 point barrier and Cape barely missing at 29. Despite the excellent play by Batsis and Hoju, the Castaways got the best of the support positions and won the cumulative score with a whopping total of 178, to Chaos's 93 (a score that would win many games). Model got an undeserved Anchor Girl award with 16 points, beating 5 of the 7 Chaos members but nobody else on her team :)

Bearette decided to start game 2 alone, winning the first 2 rounds and jumping to a large lead over the field. Not to be outdone, Moon took some time off from his verbal sparring with Batsis and Exploder to enter a few excellent acros and eventually passed Bear on his way to winning the round. Bear also made the face off, and the Castaways dominated a much faster game, winning 102-31. Lynx ended her streak of 3 consecutive face off appearances in style, winning a coveted Anchor Girl award, and our first Daily Double recipient since Doc managed the feat a few matches ago.

Final match score - 2 games to none, Castaways. Thanks to the excellent members of Chaos for some of the best acroing we've seen in a long while. Picking a winner from 14 excellent choices was just about impossible in many rounds, a tribute to the quality of the players. We're looking forward to our next meeting!

Game one was a long one, as the teams took turns winning rounds. BG_Bold was near the top of the board, along with most of the Castaways, but in the end doc and lynx ended up in face-off. capecodder was booted halfway through the game when he was in the lead, but returned to take the faux anchor boy position, although, as he has already stated, he will deny it :)

Game two was much quicker, as the Castaways won all the rounds. Jennn popped in for a quick visit in the last round, and won it, handing {--Portal the coveted anchor boy award. Special achievement award also goes to Portal for taking moonspell's place to (at doc's request), mock and berate doc throughout the match. In the end, lynx (well done lynxy!) and capecodder (getting revenge on the bot) entered face-off together.

Thanks for the fun games, BGers, was great!

Game 1 was a seesaw battle with some excellent acros on both sides. In the end, Octa and Moon went to Face Off and the rest of the Castaways filled in the upper scoring slots, giving us an 86-46 win.

Game 2 was a closer match, with the Castaways getting out to an early lead which disappeared quickly as Yose of the AL's got hot and moved into the lead, eventually going to Face Off with Moon. Again the Castaways got the better of the support positions, and Moon's win in the Face Off gave a final score of 89-68, Castaways.

Final match score - 2 games to 0, Castaways. Thanks to all the Asylum Loonie's folks for some excellent playing and fun chat. We definitely need to do this more often.

Game 1 was dominated by the Castaways with one exception: Raven from the 'bats, who played a great game and went to Face Off with Moon. In a close duel, Moon eeked out a win, giving game 1 to the Castaways.

Game 2 again featured Raven as she played a second excellent game and went to Face Off with Doc. In another close finish, Doc won the Face Off and the game for the Castaways.

Final match score: 2-0 Castaways. Thanks to the Acrobats for some lively, entertaining games! Congrats also to Raven who was outstanding all night!

Game 1. Where to begin. Well, let me say that this match ended up being quite controversial. We thought that the AF players were purposely voting their own acros throughout the first game, acros featuring such phrases as 'beautiful sunsets', or all things 'cuddly', 'romantic' or 'tender'. We in turn were accused of 'tagging' our acros by using punctuation like ":" and "..." in them. Content was apparently not important to the AF squad, only the tipoffs that allowed them to distinguish their acros from ours. After 4 rounds of getting almost NO AF votes, we figured out what they were up to. Moonspell quit the game in protest, leaving Doc to manage the team in his absence. After a period of shouted accusations, each side decided to continue on and play out the match in the hopes that things would improve, which they did. Game 1 went to AF, 93-58, as they won 5 out of the 7 rounds.

Game 2 was a bit more civilized and uneventful. The Castaways took 6 of the 9 rounds, but the real story was AF's EternalElvis who won 3 of the first 4 rounds and was well on his way to Face Off when the Acrobot intervened and booted him, a really bad break. He was able to keep his point total, but the AF team would have been better off with an early face off in this one, as the Castaways won the remaining rounds and won the game, 123-67 with Jennn and Doc going to Face Off.

Game 3 was a long match, with the Castaways winning 7 of 10 rounds to again outpoint the AF folks, this time 136-64. Model and Jennn went to Face Off in this one. For the record, *1 of 7* Castaways winners had an offending "..." section, while *2 of 3* AF winners managed to mention 'romantic' and 'sunsets'. EE's winner, of course, was the AF exception: sorry you had to be dragged down into this, King, you're an excellent player and a credit to the AF team.

Final match score: 2-1 Castaways. Thanks to the AF team for a competitive match, next time let us know what punctuation we're expected to not use so we can avoid all of this silliness, ok?

Game 1 was a Castaways romp despite a shocking *2* categories chosen in succession! Bravely weathering the storm of controversy (that he created), Moon won the round with Cape (fresh from his 'benching':) joining him in the Face Off. The Castaways also grabbed the top 6 positions, making the final tally 96-37.

Game 2 saw a resurgence among the YC'ers, as Q zoomed to the top of the leaderboard, followed by a host of Castaways. Portal and Q went to Face Off, with Port emerging victorious, adding 5 pts to the Castaway score. That was just icing on the cake, however, as the Castaways owned most of the top leaderboard slots, and won the game 97-53.

Thanks to the YCHF gang for some excellent acros and the usual great company!

Game 1 was a high scoring affair with many players grouped between 10 and 20 points. Moonspell jumped out to a lead and maintained it throughout the game to go to Face Off with CC_MJ of the Cancunites. However, the Castaways had 5 of the top 6 slots, ensuring them of the cumulative point victory. Final game score: 100-58 Castaways.

Game 2 was also a high scoring game, but this time the Castaways held the edge from the start. Moon and Doc went to Face Off with the Castaways holding 6 of the top 7 slots. Final game score: 105-42 Castaways. Humorous acro award of the night to Jk for "Lei me: Hawaiian mating call."

Final match score: 2-0 Castaways. Thanks to the Cancunites for a well played, enjoyable match; let's do it again sometime!

Game 1 was a 2 player show, with Moon and Cape winning 2 rounds apiece and going to Face Off, ensuring a Castaways' win. This was also a very quick game, taking only 5 rounds to complete. Menace secured the evening's first coveted 'Anchor Boy' award!

Game 2 proved more interesting (unless you're Cape or Moon). The Castaways jumped out to the early lead, but 40Guru made a charge on an 'Internal Organs' category question to zoom into the lead. Jennn, looking for redemption for actually choosing a category (Moon seemingly can't focus with such restrictions :), grabbed second place and went to Face Off with 40Guru. With the game on the line, Jennn produced 3 excellent acros and took the Face Off, 24-12! Octa made a late charge to win his first 'Anchor Boy' award, barely edging out a group of Castaway hopefuls!

This gave the match to the Castaways, 2-0. Thanks to FortyTude for some great games, and some great fun as well!

Game 1 began with the Castaways inching ahead early, until Octa took charge with a series of excellent acros to leapfrog the competition. Eventually he and Portal went to Face Off, giving the game to the Castaways. In all, we took the top 4 positions in this one. In a spirited battle, Cape held off a determined effort by Moon to grab the coveted Anchor Boy position, assuring himself of a relaxing break for game 2 of the match.

Colton replaced Cape in this game, and worked hard to live up to the Anchor Boy tradition of the position. At the other end of the spectrum, Moon dominated the game, running up a 39 point total to win going away. Bear grabbed second, again assuring the Castaways of the win.

Thanks to the Happy Hour crew for a fun match despite the early scrambling for players and rooms!

Game 1 started with Moon winning rounds 1 and 2, then cruising to an easy win. ~TP~Distract finished second for the Philes, with Moon taking the Face Off for the 5 pt bonus. The Castaways filled in the top of the leaderboard and easily won the cumulative total, 81-34.

Game 2 was more of a high scoring affair, but the Castaways were in control throughout, winning 6 of the 8 rounds. Lynx and Moon went to Face Off, giving the Castaways the 5 pt bonus and making the final total 121 - 51.

Final match score: 2 games to 0, Castaways. Thanks for a great match, TPs, you're all excellent acroers!

Game 1 was a Castaway runaway, with Moonspell and Fertikas duking it out in the face off. In all, the Castaways grabbed the top four spots and took the match lead, 1-0.

Game 2 was a battle all the way, both on the scoreboard and with the Net as lag and boots seemed to be the rule. In the end, Portal and AGameLvr went to face off. In a fitting end to a close match, the face off was tied at 18 each, with Portal getting the win for the Castaways based on his higher game total! Excellent game everyone! With the win, the Castaways took the match, 2-0.

Thanks to all the Second Springers for some great acroing and a fun match!

Game 1 was close all the way with some great acros for both sides. In the end, BG_RustyC and Jennn went to face off, but the Castaways got the better of the support positions and took the game, 87-73.

Game 2 showed a new look for the Castaways with Menace_o and Colton jumping to the early lead and eventually making Face Off. Menace's "Mississippi ends in delta's flow" for the "Bodies of Water" category won a whopping 10 votes in one round! Again, the Castaways filled the support positions and won the game by a 118-56 margin, taking the match 2-0.

Thanks to the BG's for some inspired acros, and the usual great company! See you next time!

Game 1 proved that our subs mesh well with the team, as the Castaways won all 5 rounds and took the top 5 places on the scoreboard. Jib and Lynx went to Face Off, giving the game to the Castaways.

Game 2 was an insant replay of game 1, at least scoring-wise. The Castaways won all 6 rounds, with Moonspell and Cubby making it to Face Off. This gave the game to the Castaways, and the match as well, 2-0.

Thanks again to our fantastic subs and to the Dome Rules gang for letting us bring them in!

Game 1 was a long, exciting battle featuring superb acros from both teams. In the end, 7 players reached 20 points (6 of them Castaways!), with Lynx and Capecodder going to face off, clinching the win for the Castaways. It was noted during the match (and since) that this was one of the better games we've seen in a long time!

Game 2 was not quite as long, but had plenty of great acroing and some endgame excitement as well, as Moonspell and Luved from the BGs went to Face Off. Moonspell emerged victorious, giving the Castaways the game, and the match, 2 - 0.

Thanks BGs for some lively, high quality games; we're already looking forward to next week's rematch!

Game 1 went the Castaways' way early and often. Moonspell dominated the game, winning by almost a 2-1 margin over the rest of the field. Menace grabbed 2nd to assure a Castaways win, with Octa taking 3rd.

After some player shuffling (Bear arrived, Cape left, Kodie and Hawkins swapped places for the Taters), game 2 pretty much picked up where game 1 left off. Ferty dusted the field in this one, with Bear taking 2nd to again assure the Castaways of the win. Jennn and Octa also played strong games.

Final score - 2 games to 0, Castaways. Thanks as always to the Taters for a fun match!

Game 1 saw a crowd of Castaways at the top of the leaderboard, and one MIC - kalsmom! After a fairly long match, Cape and kalsmom-MIC went to FO, but the issue had already been decided with the Castaways holding down most of the top positions. Cape won the FO, and with the 5 pt bonus the final score was 124 - 57, Castaways.

Game 2 was a Moonspell solo act, as he dominated the game from start to end, finishing the rest of us off in only 5 rounds! Jennn grabbed second to assure FO points for the Castaways as well. Final score:80 - 37. Final match score: 2 games to none, Castaways.

A big thanks to the MIC'ers for some excellent games and for playing with some 'under the weather' teammates!

This was one of the first team matches for the RSers, and they appeared to have the 'opening game jitters' in game 1. The Castaways won each round, with Lynx and Doc going to FO. Final game score: 101 - 22.

Game 2 was a more competitive contest, especially after a 15 point acro from the RSers' Rapid Eyes! In the end however, the Castaways pulled ahead, with Portal and Capecodder going to FO. Final game score: 96 - 44.

Thanks to the *BU* gang for an excellent effort while shorthanded, you folks are a fun team to play!

After a few minutes delay waiting for the Acroboot bot to leave the Floaters alone, Game 1 began. Amazingly finding time to enter acros while debating the merits of the aforementioned Twain, Doc and Fert dominated this game and went to Face Off, giving the Castaways a 1-0 lead. Colton secured the coveted 'Anchor Boy' title in this one.

Game 2 saw a reversal of fortunes somewhat. Jk jumped out to a huge early lead, with Sunni from the SSF's holding 2nd, much to the delight of the Floaters. However the Castaways came on strong, and Capecodder and Colton eventually made it to Face Off (Bear was also tied for 2nd). Wanting a complete resume for the night, Doc added an 'Anchor Boy' award to his previous 'Game Winner' title. The win gave the Castaways the match, 2-0.

Thanks to the Floaters for putting up with all the nuisance of the Acrobot and, of course, our chat-monopolizing team members. It was a fun match!

Game 1 went the Castaways' way right from the start, with Castaways winning the first 5 rounds, and 6 out of 7 total. Moon and Cape went to Face Off, and the game went to the Castaways.

Game 2 was a much closer affair. The Castaways again jumped out to the early lead, winning rounds 1-4, but the YC's won the next 2 rounds and ~~J~~UP barely missed the Face Off. In the end, Moon and Doc went to Face Off and assured another game win for the Castaways. Final match score: 2 games to 0, Castaways.

Thanks to all the YCHF team for a great match and lots of laughter in the chat!

Game 1 set the tone for the match. ~TP~Distract jumped out to a big early lead and threatened to run away with the game for the TPs. However the Castaways battled back and Doc jumped into 2nd place with a cast of teammates behind him, helping the Castaways to a 98-77 victory.

Game 2 was a replay of game 1, with the lead seesawing back and forth between the teams as the rounds progressed. At the end, ~TP~Distract and Jk went to Face Off, but the game had already been decided, with the TP's taking an 82-71 win.

The deciding game 3 was yet another classic, with the TPs getting out to an early lead, and the Castaways staging yet another late rally. Jk dropped with 18 points midway through the game, but Portal, Moonspell, Doc and Bear came on strong at the end of the game. Moonspell hit 40pts in going to Face Off with Doc, giving the Castaways a 110-73 win, and the match, 2 games to 1.

Thanks to everyone on the Toaster Philes for great playing, and lots of patience with the annoying Snerts! We're looking forward to our next rematch!

We had snert problems right from the beginning, with one snert (who had bothered the Acrobats before) following us from room to room. Eventually we all flooded a room and made ourselves invisible.

Game 1 began with a strong performance from the Acrobats' Raven, with Rusty and Moon on her tail. Unfortunately, in the middle of the match, Raven got booted, leaving moon and Rusty 1-2 in the scoring, and those two went to face-off.

Game 2 produced more aggravation as Raven couldn't reconnect and we were left with an open space in the room. Our snert found us once again, to everyone's aggravation. Rusty volunteered to sit out and we played 6 on 6 for the remainder of the game. Moon and Jennn both played strong games, going to face-off to win the match for the Castaways, 2-0.

The Special Achievement award for the evening goes to Doc, who describes Game 2 as follows: "My 3rd place finish, in game 2, was perhaps the work of God. Following my recent nasopharyngeal surgery, i came down with a deathly fever, and was delirious for the entire game. Only with semi-conscious recollection of the game, I vaguely remember this bright light, this tunnel, and then, looking at the scoreboard, my name in 3rd :)"

Despite all the problems, thanks to the Acrobats for a strong showing and your great spirit!

Game 1 was a close, hard-fought match with many great acros from both teams. At the end, Fertikas and Bearette made it to Face Off, giving the game to the Castaways. (Fert noted that this was his FIRST Face Off win ever in a team match! Woo hoo!).

Game 2 saw the Castaways hitting their stride with lots of excellent acros while winning 6 of the 7 rounds. Capecodder and Lynx went to Face Off, giving the game to the Castaways! Final match score: 2-0 Castaways.

Thanks to all the Castaways who showed up to play, it's sure fun to have the 'problem' of too many players! Also, thanks to the Alley Cats for a fun match - your reputation as a entertaining team is certainly deserved!

Game 1 was a 2-man show as Doc raced off to a big lead, followed by Moonspell. Everyone else was grouped together some 15-20 points behind by the end of the game. The Castaways got the automatic 5pt FO bonus and took the game 94 - 44.

Fertikas went from viewer to player in game 2, with Colton sitting out on the sidelines. The Toasters got out to an early lead as Pheltzer singlehandedly tried to bring them back into the match. Then Bearette got hot and lapped the field, going to FO with Moonspell. This again gave the FO bonus to the Castaways, with the final tally being 101 - 45. Final match score: 2 - 0 Castaways.

Thanks to everyone for showing up and being patient as we subbed and shuffled the lineup to get everyne into the match. Thanks also to the FT's who played inspired Acro all night while a player short!

Picking 4 players out of this group was not an easy task, but eventually the Castaways were represented by Moonspell, Lynx, Docgc, and Capecodder in the 1st round. After a slow start, the team made a charge and won the round, defeating the Toaster Philes and the Acrobats.

Round 2 saw some player shuffling as Jennn was added to the lineup for Doc, who volunteered to take a match off. This round also went to the Castaways, with the Dust Bunnies and C9Abal being the competition.

Round 3 (the championship round) was played shortly after the 2nd round. The Castaways faced the Couch Taters and the Asylum Loonies for the coveted title. Playing with the Round 1 lineup once again, the Castaways emerged victorious and won the Tourney! Congrats to all who participated, and to everyone who helped out as subs. Let's hope we can play with full teams the next time we enter a tournament!

Game 1 was basically a 3 person show - fortunately for us they were all Castaways! Capecodder led the way with some amazing acros, Fertikas was close behind him, and Moonspell joined them as they lapped the field and led the Castaways to a 95-29 win.

In game 2, it initially looked like we'd have a replay of the first game as Lynx jumped out to a commanding lead after only the few early rounds! Eventually the rest of the group was allowed to play, and the match got fairly close before a late Castaways run put it out of reach. Lynx and Moonspell went to FO and the game went to the Castaways 103-52, along with the match, 2 games to none.

Thanks to the Loonies for making it a fun, enjoyable night, we're looking forward to a rematch!

Game 1 was basically the Doc and Moon show, with Doc winning several rounds. Jennn, Cape, Bear, and Port also had excellent games, helping the Castaways to a 127-44 victory.

Game 2 was a bit closer, but in the end the Castaways pulled away with Doc again taking top honors (nice match, Docster!!), and Bear joining him in the Face Off. Final score for game 2: Castaways 120, TPs 55.

Final match score: 2-0 Castaways. Thanks to the Toaster Philes for an entertaining, fun match!

Present for the Castaways: Moonspell, Colton, Lynx, Doc, Capecodder, and 2 subs, EJetson and Chipps (thanks for helping us out you two!). The SLRs had the usual cast of thousands, all attired in their ==SLR== outfits. Scoring was cumulative for the top 5 players on each team with the 5pt Face Off bonus.

Round 1 was a close match with many players in double figures. In the end, the Castaways pulled away with Moonspell and Chipps going to Face Off. Final game score: 116 - 66 Castaways.

Round 2 again featured many players in double figures, but this time the Castaways controlled the top of the leaderboard from the early rounds on. Chipps and Colton went to Face Off. Final game score: 158 - 51 Castaways.

Thanks again to the SLR gang for some inspired acroing and as usual great company!

Game 1 was basically the Jennn and Capecodder show as these 2 dominated the scoring as they made it to Face Off. Moonspell got careless with matches and was forced to miss much of the game when an alert neighbor pulled the fire alarm in his dorm. Final game score: 89 - 40, Castaways.

Game 2 was over almost before it started as Moonspell 'smoked' the competition, winning in only 4 rounds. Lynx made it a Castaways sweep of the Face Off positions, and the game went to the Castaways 85 - 22. Final match score: 2 - 0, Castaways.

Thanks to everyone who played, Moon for the Log and scoring summaries, and the SLRs for a well-played match.

Game 1 was nip and tuck early on, but then the Castaways caught fire with Doc, Jib, Moon, Hook and Lynx claiming the top spots. Doc and Jib made the Face Off, giving the Castaways the lead in the match 1-0.

Bearette dropped after game 1, and after a wait, Fertikas joined the match for game 2. The CRs got off quickly in Game 2, with GameID and Tornado winning early rounds. After that, however, it was all Castaways (despite the numerous beers proffered by the CR's :). Moonspell and Lynx went to Face off, and the Castaways took the top 7 positions and the match, 2-0.

Thanks to the CR's for fun matches and chat - what a fun team!

Game 1 began with the Taters winning round 1, then watching as Capecodder and other Castaways went on a tear, with Cape and Bearette going to Face Off. Lynx, Leaf, and Doc also had strong games, while Colton chose to play anchor in this one :) Match score: 1-0 Castaways.

In game 2, the Taters seemed to lose interest a bit - it was clear we caught them on an off night. Still, there were some excellent Tater acros from Kodie's group. With the momentum from the first game, the Castaways came out smoking in this one, taking the top 7 positions, with Docgc and Colton going to Face Off. Cape barely missed the Face Off, with Leaf, Bear, Hook, and Lynx all playing strong games. Final score: 2-0 Castaways.

Thanks to Kodie and the Taters for a good match, we enjoyed the playing and the good company!

Game 1 was a VERY high scoring affair, with a crowded leaderboard at the top. Sally Jean made it to face off for YCHF, but the Castaways had packed the leaderboard with Moon, Lynx, and Portal all at 29 and Doc at 28. Portal beat Sally Jean in the FO, and the Castaways took the game 159-102.

In contrast, game 2 was a low scoring affair as Moonspell decided not to let anyone else score points, lapping the field and leading the Castaways to a 65-36 win. Moon and Sally Jean tied in the FO. Final match score - Castaways 2, YCHF 0. Great games folks!

Game 1 was initially a seesaw battle, with several Castaways jumping out to an early lead (Portal won the first few rounds) only to have the AF'ers make a comeback in the middle of the game to get 2 players near the lead. At the end however, the Castaways pulled ahead again, with Portal and Bearette going to Face Off. With the 5 point face off bonus, the final score was 113-30 Castaways.

Several AF members swapped with alternates in a planned move before the start of game 2. Also our final unwanted 'guest' finally departed, allowing Capecodder back into the game and giving us a full 7 on 7 match. Acro Faction got off to a good start in game 2, winning the first round, but from there on it was mostly all Castaways. Moonspell and Capecodder went to Face Off, and with the 5 pt bonus the final score was 132-64 Castaways. Final match score - 2 games to none, Castaways.

Thanks to all the Acro Faction members for a fun match, we admired your never-say-die spirit and your excellent playing!

Game 1 was a long, close game with many players ending up with 20+ points. At the end, Moonspell and Doc surged ahead and made the Face Off, assuring the win for the Castaways.

Game 2, played with couch rules, went to the Taters. Cattt and Kilroy105 held off a determined group of 4 Castaways to make it to the Face Off and square the match at 1-1.

The tide turned again in the deciding game, with 6 Castaways at the top of the leaderboard! Bearette and Capecodder made the Face Off, giving the Castaways a 2-1 win. Thanks to Kodie, Sunni and the rest of the Taters for a well-played match!

Game 1 was close all the way, a high-scoring game that saw many players score 20+ points before the Face Off. The Castaways inched ahead at the end of the round, winning the final 6 and 7 letter rounds to grab an insurmountable lead as Moonspell and Hoju went to FO. Final score: Castaways 120, Chaos 109.

After a close game 1, the second game ended up closer still! The Castaways started out hot, winning the 1st 4 rounds, but the Chaos troops came storming back to win 3 of the next 4. And so it went. At the end Chaos grabbed an 8 point lead, and even a Face Off win by Capecodder over Batsis couldn't make up that difference. Final score: Chaos 116, Castaways 113.

After game 2, we had several players get booted, and Leaf had to leave for work. Things were delayed for several minutes while JK entered the game, as well as Klutz as a substitute. When the game finally began, Chaos jumped to the early lead. The Castaways slowly eroded the margin, and eventually took back the lead with a small margin to spare. Jk and Moonspell made the Face Off, giving the Castaways the 5pt bonus and the match! Final score: Castaways 105, Chaos 88.

Thanks to several folks are in order: Moonspell for playing while badly 'under the weather', Klutz for subbing in game 3, Jk for helping out as an alternate, and the entire Chaos team for producing Hall-of-Fame quality acros all night. Thanks everyone, can't wait for the rematch :)

Game 1 was a high-scoring, seesaw battle with the Castaways gaining the edge at the end. Moonspell beat Sally Jean 23-13 in the FO, but the issue had already been decided by that point. Final score: Castaways 128, YCHF 96.

Game 2 went much as the first one did, with the Castaways holding on for a 135-90 win. Moonspell beat Capecodder 17-16 in the FO. This gave the match to the Castaways, 2-0. Thanks to all the YC High Fivers for excellent play and fun matches!

Round 1 went to the Castaways convincingly. Capecodder took top honors, going to Face-Off with Moonspell. Docgc and Lynx made it a Castaways sweep of the top 4 spots. Cape won the FO, and it was 1-0 , Castaways.

Round 2 was a much closer match, with Kayla jumping out to an early lead for the Acrobats. Moonspell eventually caught up and passed Kayla, and Capecodder made a late charge to grab 2nd (both players had 29 at one point!). This gave the Castaways the match, 2-0.

Thanks to the Acrobats for a fun match and good company!

Game 1 started positively for the Castaways, playing 1 person short with only 6 players. Capecodder, Moonspell and Lynx jumped out to an early lead, and things were looking good. However as the round progressed, Jennn zoomed up the leaderboard to take the lead, the Castaways holding on to 2nd-4th places. Several FT players got booted during the game, and just before the FO, Mmike and Moonspell got booted, making scoring a nightmare. Jennn and Lynx met in the FO with the win going to Jennn, giving the FT's the game 69-66.

Game 2 was one of the most lopsided games the Castaways have ever played in. Unfortunately, we were not on the winning side! With all the trouble with people being booted and scoring game 1, game 2 began on the 6 letter round. Jennn won the 6 and 7 letter rounds for the FT's, quickly giving them a huge lead. Moonspell again got booted, forcing the Castaways to play shorthanded for the duration of the round. That turned out to be a short duration, as Jennn easily won the round, almost single handedly winning the match for the FT's. Final score: FT's 64, Castaways 23. Congrats FT's, and especially Jennn who played 2 amazing games!

Round 1 was a long round in which the Castaways jumped ahead early and never looked back. Even with Moonspell being booted in the middle of the round, we managed to put palm trees into 6 of the top 7 slots. Lynx and Hook went to the face off, ensuring a win for the Castaways for the round.

The second round was dominated even more by the Castaways (if possible) with one very important exception: Mpd! Mpd singlehandedly kept the Taters in the match, winning the round in a close faceoff with Drgc. In all, the Castaways had 7 of the top 8 positions, but the Taters walked away with the win. Colton has vowed never to choose 'The Law' as a category ever again!

With the match tied, round 3 would determined the winner. Capecodder and Jk made sure there would be no repeat of Round 2, as they ran away from the field and went to the faceoff, giving the round to the Castaways. Final score: Castaways 2 games, Couch Taters 1.

Thanks to the Taters for a well-played match despite all the networking problems! Captain Kodie managed to keep things together and we all enjoyed the banter in the chat window as well!

The Castways' lineup had Moonspell, Portal, Jk, Colton, Capecodder, and Hook as regulars, with Chadzilla from the Chaos team filling in for our 7th player. Chad looked really spiffy in his palm tree!

After some minor problems getting everyone in the room, Round 1 began and the Castaways jumped out to a fast start. Jk led the way with some great acros, with Chadzilla also making the faceoff. Holding the top 4 positions, the Castaways won the round easily, 94-35.

Not ready to be so quickly dispatched, the RRDT'ers came roaring back in Round 2. Toga and Hintzde were on fire, and the match was evened with RRDT stomping us 109-59.

The decisive round 3 was yet another flip flop, with the Castaways regaining the edge. Moonspell cruised to the win, with Portal also making the Faceoff. Final score: Castaways 95-33. This gave the match to the Castaways, 2 games to 1. Thanks to the Rainbow Room crew for a fun evening and some great Acroing!

Round 1 was a long round, with many players grouped in a pack. Mrsmodel jumped out to a lead and eventually went to face off vs Mayryt. The points were 114-110 Castaways at this point, so the 5-pt FO bonus would determine the winner. With a single vote to spare, Mrsmodel won the face off and the Castaways took the first round, 119-110!

Round 2 was a 2-person show, with Jennn and Moonspell capturing most of the rounds. The total score was much lower this time, 64 apiece entering the FO. Jennn and Moon met in the face off, and Moonspell prevailed to take the round and the match, 2-0! Great job Castaways!! Thanks to the Toasters for a great match and some excellent acros; we enjoyed it!

We all expected a close match and Round 1 didn't disappoint. Both teams played well and many scores were bunched together in the middle of the pack. The Face Off eventually pitted Fertikas against Batsis25. With the match in the balance (Castaways were up 2 with a 5 point FO bonus to be won), Fate intervened and Fert's ISP dropped him in the middle of the round, handing the round to Batsis and Chaos, 65-62.

Fertikas was able to reconnect and rejoin the team for Round 2. This round went our way from start to finish, with Moonspell beating Mmike in the FaceOff. Final score, Castaways 95, Chaos 51. The match was squared at one apiece!

Round 3 was a classic. Both teams had their backs to the wall and each round became more and more crucial. Moonspell and Chadzilla went to the Face Off with Chaos up 84-81. Feeling no pressure (right Moon?? :), Moonspell won the FO and the match for the Castaways! Final score: Castaways 86, Chaos 84.

This match was played with Couch Rules, of course, and Face Off scoring to determine the winner. Things were a bit chaotic at the start, so Colton and Cin*CR* opted for the simpler scoring rules to help get the match going. After all, playing Couch Rules was new enough, having to track scores would have been a nightmare!

Round 1 was close from the start. The Castaways got out fast with Colton winning some early rounds, but then Buggy*CR* scored a *15* point win for the CR clan and took the lead! After that, the round belonged to Portal who eventually passed Buggy going to the Face Off. With the game on the line, Portal scored a convincing win and the Castaways took the round!

Round 2, in contrast, was never in question. Moonspell and Jennn took over early and alternated winning acros for most of the round. Leaf and Jk made it a Castaways sweep at the top of the scoreboard. Moonspell beat Jennn in the meaningless Face Off as the Castaways took round 2 and the match, 2-0. Great playing team!

Round 1 was played with Regular Acro rules and the Castaways jumped out to an early lead and never looked back. The new palm tree striping for our players {-- made a nice forest of trees at the top of the scoreboard as the Castaways took the top 5 positions. Fertikas beat Colton in the FO, and the Castaways had a 1-0 lead.

Round 2 was played with Couch rules and the Bunnies showed why they prefer this style of play! Aip, Beadle, Jetgirl and other Bunnies zoomed out to early leads. Near the end of the round, the Castaways finally started getting the hang of the new format a bit and Colton jumped into 2nd place to make the Face Off. In a weird face off where the 2nd round consisted of a single letter acro, Colton beat Aip and the Castaways took the round.

Final score - Castaways 2, Dust Bunnies 0. Great job again Castaways! Thanks to the Dust Bunnies for a fun match and especially to Aip for organizing us to help avoid some early Snert distractions.

Round 1 went to the Castaways in a big way. Msmodel and Fertikas jumped out to a quick lead over the field and were never challenged, with Model winning the Faceoff. Shipwreck got the Castaways a tie for 3rd as well, ensuring total points for the round. Final score: Castaways 89, RRDT 59.

Round 2 was nip and tuck the entire way. The Castaways scores almost reversed themselves from round 1. Colton jumped out to a lead early on, with Snowlock on his heels. However the RRDT didn't quit and klutz zoomed past Colton going to the Faceoff. With the points almost even, the Faceoff decided the match, with Colton managing to sneak a win out of the round. Final score: Castaways 88, RRDT 86.

Great match, Castaways! Also many thanks to the Rainbow Room crew who produced exceptional acros all evening in the middle of hilarious chatting!
