Skulls!
More BB than the stars I suppose.

I don't know, when I make it to Star Player status, I'll have 3 skulls, not a good thing in BB.

Het torg, are you racing me?

No, but if I was, you would have a comfortable lead. You will probably make it to triple skulls before I do (that doesn't sound too good does it?)

That's why I cut my Orge, every time he got a 3 dice block he rolled 3 skulls

. Still, looking on the bright side, it did bring my TR down for the 3rd/4th playoff

That's what I call really BAD luck! BTW, it seems a little strange that your league uses a 3rd playes 4th, 1st plays 2nd playoff format. I have only seen a 1st/4th, 2nd/3rd playoff format.

We played a league system as there was only 8 of us at the time. We split into 2 conferences of 4. Conference A played it conference opponents twice (6 games) and the other conference teams once each(4 games) for a total of 10 games. We then played off the semi-finals 1st Con.A Vs. 2nd Con.B and visa-versa, the winners going to the final and the losers going to the 3rd/4th play-off.
We also played the wooden spoon final: 3rd Con.A Vs. 4th Con.B and visa-versa, with the loser contesting the wooden spoon, and the winners fighting for 5th/6th. This way all teams played 12 games, so no-one felt left out, and the was something to play for right till the end of the season, as we all wanted a highest position possible.
Interestingly, the wooden spoon game was won by the player who had the worst league record (W1/D3/L6) so he avoided the spoon. This is a similar league to that we will run next, but we might have more players then.

POW is what people call the knock down symbol on the blocking dice. Don't worry, I never heard it called that , either, until I visited this place.
