This is not the Think Tanks Scrum league.

This is an totally new league with new rules and schedule.

It does not replace the scrum league... if scrum league is American football... PsychoScrum is arena football!!!

Come look at the site and see for yourself!

I think you're "acting" like a jerk. Why didn't you post both scores?

Whenever I feel down, Tally is always my bright sunshine. He really cheers me up.

'Acting'? So I am not 'a' jerk yet? Halleluah. There's still hope! =P

Both scores? What exactly do you mean? Since Az has already said he thinks we should just send the scores to TD, and you are saying I should post more than the one game's scores, I am kind of confused.

Maybe it's just me, but I think Tal and Zaz have forgotten that I am just trying to help. "Don't post the scores.""Post more scores.""Jerk." Just trying to help, okay?

Y'know, I think next time I will just not bother posting the scores at all. Saves me the hassle of figuring out why everyone suddenly thinks I'm a jerk.


Ugh. I feel like hitting something. I think I'll go find some demos in BM somewhere and have a kill fest.

No *. The score is actually the total of both games though. LOL, I know you were trying to help:).

Protocol in the PsychoScrum Arena League is that all stats are on Dork's website thats all. It's unlike the weekend league. There Loler has been slow (weeks) to post scores.

In the dying seconds of a tied match , the Tally Monkey shrieks out a reverberating "Noooooooooooo!" as Asterisk dashes with the scrum further and futher away from the goal. Hounded by team Dementia, Asterisk loses possession and all hope of dignity for Amnesia is lost.

After the battle, a bewildered and indignant Asterisk defends himself. "What's the big deal? You've all read my posts. I never go backwards. But I do go forward in the opposite direction."

Hate that I missed the game.. sounds like a good one.

The site has been updated to reflect last nights game.. the scores of the last two games are odd... 23-15 both times.

All that will soon change.

Make sure you check the team page to see which player has transfered to Amnesia!

Seems we can do no wrong, O Dementia team!
Even with me willingly missing a game in order to give Amnesia a chance, we still come back home to cheering crowds, with a train of looted enemy tank parts!

Tankster you slimeball, you switched side - soon you will have to put #2 besides your name!
Amnesia now looks like a celebrity team, resting on the withered laurels of their glorious past.

Seriously I'm sad, it seems I'm always fighting you guys. I was happy to be on tanky's side for once - and not on the other end of his dreaded cannon.

On the sunny side, *cowboy* is now in Dementia! Which gives us unrestricted access to his practice range in is private ranch. yeeepeee! I'll be able to practice my new move: a back flip scrum cartwheel. The hard thing with this move is to vaporize the enemy campers with Ariot-Area PowerUp while in the air...

Our team has lots of TGS in it... A good omen...

Dementia 22
Amnesia 15

One more point by dementia and it would have been the third game in a row with the score of 23-15!!!

Oh well.. maybe Monday

Game one was ugly Tally.. we had some (edit) join the game and wouldn't leave. This caused a major distraction for all of our players.. Dementia said he could stay.. but they weren't the ones loosing points to him and having his points negated at the end of the game by the PsychoScrum rules!

By the time he left and #1 TANKSTER joined.. it was 12 to 4.. we rallied and closed game one at 7 to 14 (Dementia).

Game two was a better reading closing at 8 to 8.

Hopefully next time we will have a passworded server.

The site has been updated.

1- Another great victory, O demented troops!
2- 9 is too many per team; I suggest reducing to 8 peeps for next season. The 2 extra will form the core of team #3.
3- Yesterday TD you suggested a 3 vs 3 teams. I wouldn't condone this set-up. Nothing as good as 5vs5 game! 3vs3 will become 3vs2 or 3vs1 or 2vs1 whenever some are missing. At least with 5-5 if one misses it is 5-4 or 4-4.
4- We have a really good showing this season. Keep it up! Good to make room. Yesterday AZA and Shermy missed; last week I did. If we are 6-7 we should rotate so that everyone gets to play some.
5- Tanky, did you already changed your name to TANKSTER #2? Just checking.
6- That RiBot was in the way. I dislike to be rude. I shouldn't have said 'retard' (even if I thought so). I like when you say: "dude, mind to leave?", and hop, they leave. Nice like in movies...
7- Tally, don't take it so seriously. I know you felt sick at the idea of losing YET another match. But man, this is just a game! ;) (PS hope you're doing better).
8- After so many easy victories, I decided to get back to serious training... I've spent the whole morning in the TARGET PRACTICE AREA. Dude! These tanks are nasty! THEY MOVE! Had sweat rolling down my forehead. Now I'm even more ready to fight Amnesia!
9- That's it for today! See you monday!
10- Anyone playing WW2 Online?

I like people like you, who even in the face of invincible adversity keep their moral up.

DEMENTIA MUST WIN, O YE TANKY, especially since you deserted our noble cause and joined the vile enemy, divulging our secret tactics and back-stabbing us treacherously.

We shall boil you in the oil of our victorious tank engines!

So much pressure must be mounting on the Dementia team to maintain their frail victories.
Now resorting to inserting false bots in our midst, uttering so much bluster and bravado in a vain attempt to keep their stretched ego's inflated.

It must be hard to be a Dementiaite.

Laying in their little tank beds quivering at every rustle of the wind, creak of the house......what was that noise, they wonder. Is it the mounting storm, the rising tide, the cresting wave of TEAM AMNESIA????

Rest my dementia darlings, if you dare, cease your posturing and groundless rants as eternal sleep will come on Monday.

Hehehe, Baba. Aside from the few nighttime visits from Uncle Bob, I'm sleeping quite fine, thank you very much.

Dementia knew all along that Tally wouldn't stomach the Thai curry we fedexed him. We were also very aware that #2Tanky doesn't know how to press the refresh server button. The false bot, on the other hand, was just an improvised maneuver. Wait for Monday to see what other premeditated and spontaneous surprises we have in store for Amnesia.

Thanks for everything, jangles. Your post made me smile even more than some of Tal's.

Lets be nice and share with the foe one of our best-kept dementia secret: you have to click on the mouse to fire the cannon.
