Hardtimes will be a no show this time. Sorry, hopefully next game.

Go get em 5 handed FLY.

I was just going to write the check to Hardtime's, Andy.

Besides, it's hard to tell If I'm actully hitting all 5 boxes, what with the compound eyes & everything.

FYI, the SoCal team will be playing at Mr. B's in Los Alamitos tomorrow.

Sorry about the no-show today, kids.
My mom popped into town at the last minute.
I feel bad. Saving her only son from public humiliation
should be worth more than a free dinner and tickets to a day spa...

Next time I'm playing one box & y'all can multiply it by 5...EGADS!!!

Man, what a headache. Too much pushing buttons, not enough pushing empties towards the bartender.

EDIT: Thanks to Jeff/NOFLY who helped me out yesterday. We had MANY Playmakers die on us yesterday. If we were any good, that could have been a big problem, since BARFLY & DRYFLY boxes are not P+P log-ins.

Congrats to the winners out west & the runners-up down south. Glad Hillbillyville at least got some points.

Let me know where/who to bounce the check.

Congrats to SoCal.

You might as well give us the PayPal account now. I don't see the money flowing in more than one direction.

Anyone up for round 3 this Sunday? I'm gonna be in Vegas and Bobby said he'd play with me. I haven't talked to my SoCal teammates yet, but I'm sure they'll be up to play against us. Just to recap: games are from 5-8 EDT and the entry is $30 per team, winner takes all.

What a sell out...

Sure, I'm in.

I'm out.

Jeff/NOFLY is on vacation with his family back in KC & I sure as heck ain't pushing 5 buttons.

If I road trip to someplace with some players, I'll let y'all know.

EDIT: I'm guessing my last check cleared, Dave.

Well, as tempting as it is for me to drag my poor tired lil ass to where ever in The OC the others will be gathering, I'll likely be playing with myself somewhere in The Site-Poor Backyard, observing the proceedings with more than a lil interest.

The SoCal team is in and will be playing at Season Ticket. That's 3 teams confirmed. Anyone else?

So what was the final tally?

Hey, who won? Did this happen? We were at a baseball game and couldn't play.

I wasn't in, but was playing at the time. Saw both the Cali & Texas sites in the top 10.

That's very nice of you.
I hope you find someone in the bar who will drink it.
Meanwhile I'll be enjoying my regular Dr. Pepper watching as the quest unfolds and tension mounts with the kind of Sturm und Drang one usually only finds in the genius of Goethe, the works of Schiller, early episodes of Three's Company...

Anyone interested in another BT for Cash, perhaps this Sunday? Spotes is the reigning champion, taking down SoCal and Vegas in last month's battle royale. As usual, the competition is a three hour block of (nationwide) Countdown games on a Sunday, 5-8 eastern. Entry is $30 per bar, winner take all.

I've always been a big fan of pushing my luck. I should be able to give it a go this Sunday.

Well Spotes, it seems we've frightened away all the competition. Hopefully another team or two will see this thread and join in the next day or two, but if not, I'm up for playing with just two teams if you are. As far as I know, the SoCal team will have at least 3 players, and probably more like 5. Unless I hear otherwise, I'll let my teammates know that we're on for Sunday.

Mano e mano against a team that won over 100 premium games in a calendar year... what could possibly go wrong...? :mrgreen:

Hey, YO, remember when the top teams and players weren't a bunch of yellow-bellied milquetoasts that would run from a challenge?
I miss those days... 8-)

It's only $30 per team you cheap-skate bastards! :mrgreen:

I didn't think anyone at DeMoris would want to enter this competition, but I was telling JOHNNY and TEMPLR about it and they seemed interested. I'm not sure how we would do, but we might give it a try next time.

Well, as a bystander with maybe just a lil interest...

From the site rankings that showed in The Site-Poor Backyard

, 86th St. finished ahead of Mr. B's in the 2:30, 3:30, 4:00 & 5:30 games, whilst Mr. B's finished ahead of 86th in the 2:00, 3:00, 4:30 & 5:00 games. No site rankings showed for the 6:00 game, after which I dragged my poor tired lil old grumpy ass back to my humble lil abode.
