Actions on 25 Apr 2001
- The PusherDroid takes 4 steps and builds a section of TheWall.
- Kevan asks that Rich might change the Chant in our favour, before he himself takes any action.
- A while later, and cursing his lack of psychic team-mate connection, Kevan bounces, digs out a two-bordered Wall, steps into the Breach (dropping the PogoStick) and pushes the PusherDroid with his foot.
- Rich does some building and changes the chant.
- Kevan's Kick of the PusherDroid was illegal, having hopped him over a section of TheWall (a Kick moves the victim one square - this didn't). Also, Kevan couldn't do the Kick anyway since he couldn't remove a wall-section without first dropping the PogoStick, using one more Action. Someone Correct this, please. (PusherDroid was previously south of Kevan's current location.) (--Raven)
- Raven changes the chant, and takes two steps.
Actions on 26 Apr 2001

- The PusherDroid kicks Kevan twice, takes a stumbled-step and a normal step.
- Raven takes one step.
- Rich builds, and changes the chant.
- Raven changes the chant, and takes a step, then grumbles about having to update the chant archive for two, both these recent changes.
Actions on 27 Apr 2001
- Kevan kicks the PusherDroid twice, takes a stumbled Step and builds some Wall.
- Raven takes 6 steps.
- Rich figures it's about time to take things to their logical stupid conclusion. So: He leaves the BlackTeam. Automatically, NudgeDroid leaves the WhiteTeam. Automatically, PusherDroid leaves the GrayTeam. Automatically, ShoverDroid leaves the IndigoTeam.
- Kevan sniggers.
- Raven prefers the stupid conclusion to the previous sensible arrangement of one team full of active players, and one full of inactive players. "Hoorah!" he says.
Actions on 30 Apr 2001
- Raven takes 5 steps and picks up TheBall.
- Rich changes the chant.
Actions on 01 May 2001
- Raven takes 5 steps, and observes that the game is terribly boring with only single independent units.
- Kevan runs six steps, having been too distracted to play a move yesterday, and gives a nod of thanks to Rich.
Actions on 02 May 2001
- Raven takes 5 steps, and suggests that Kevan go after TheFlag, since he has no chance of getting TheBall, and points out that he (Raven) will wait to score the point until Kevan has TheFlag, or no longer has likelihood of acquiring it, if he (Kevan) heads that way now.
- Kevan isn't bothered, really. All kudos to Rich for his clever entombment. Kevan steps and puts some bricks down.
- Ole takes 5 steps.
- Rich changes the chant. He notices there's an extra patch on the field and removes what he thinks is the correct one. Rich also wonders why there isn't another Droid, since on 27 Apr all three droids were on teams.
Actions on 03 May 2001
- Raven leaves the GrayTeam, which promptly vanishes.
Actions on 04 May 2001
- Kevan steps and builds four Walls.
- Raven joins the BlackTeam. Droids are scattered liberally throughout the other teams. Raven cheekily is inspired by the Cheerleaders to take another step.
- Rich changes the chant. He notes that the rules do not provide for the dissolution of any team, even if it has no players, and calls upon Raven to correct eir assignment of Droids to teams including the GrayTeam. He also notes that Tyrethali and Kash are replaced by TyrethaliDroid? and KashDroid?.
Actions on 07 May 2001
- KashDroid? is again Kash as e is back, but he leaves the Game to go to Holidays.
- Raven points out that the rules don't (or at least didn't at the time) provide for the creation of Teams, or of Players, either. The Rules don't say anything about not being allowed to dissolve Teams with no Players (and, incidentally, no points), and doing so in no way puts anyone at a disadvantage.
Actions on 08 May 2001
- Raven takes a step. A Goal is scored. Yay. Woop woop.
Actions on The First Day
- Something happened. Who knows what, but strange though it was, it made things strangely better.
