Hello QPQers, and welcome to the twelfth Weekly Match Round Up! We apologise AGAIN for the lateness of this round, real life is pretty much kicking moderator ass at the moment (being understaffed sucks hardcore). We will, however, endeavour to catch up to our regular week-ahead schedule when we are able. (Injury List and Ladder will be updated ASAP as we have time, possibly tomorrow now that I’ve figured it out.)

To that end, is you were unable to join us in the live roll, here is a link to the transcript (you will need to log in first to view it). The transcript stays up always so you can always check there to verify we're not making things up. It keeps every single week all in one document, so you'll need to scroll down to the bottom to find the most recent lot of results.

As a reminder, here is the link to the explanation of how we score the games. These scores reflect CP (character point) adjustments due to losses and in-game actions (Speak to Sarah if you'd like to know more about how that works or would like to let her know of something that needs to be taken into account).

( Spoilers be down here! )

Cheating Arrow and Cup Winner Crush Campbell's Heart.

First year Puddlemere player, Felicity Campbell, looked close to tears after having lunch with professed best friend, Tamsin Applebee, most recently seen playing for England’s National Team. According to fellow diners, the pair were seen arguing, possibly over the intimate “conversations” Applebee was seen having with Campbell’s boyfriend, hunky Wigtown Beater and member of Switzerland's champion team, Sebastien Popovic.( Read more... )

Hello QPQers, and welcome to the eleventh Weekly Match Round Up, this year’s first AND the first since the World Cup! We apologise for the lateness of this round, between the real and the life part of real life, it got away from us. We will, however, endeavour to catch up to our regular week-ahead schedule when we are able. (Injury List and Ladder will be updated ASAP as we have time)

To that end, is you were unable to join us in the live roll, here is a link to the transcript (you will need to log in first to view it). The transcript stays up always so you can always check there to verify we're not making things up.

These scores reflect CP (character point) adjustments due to losses and in-game actions (Speak to Sarah if you'd like to know more about how that works or would like to let her know of something that needs to be taken into account).
Special note for CP this week: Wigtown having a World Cup winner (woo, Seb!) in its ranks was given +2 CP, and as Ireland were the runners up, any team with an Irish National Player was given +1 (per team) to reflect the calibre of the competitors.

All injury rolls will be from the 6 sided dice as everyone has had time to recover IC. Due to the Christmas break being longer, the characters who tipped the 20 on injury points (Angelina Johnson and Colin Dunstan) will have recovered by the time the season begins again and ALL characters will start the second half of the season with 0 injury points.
