- A brief history of Bonefive in the 5 Stars League - - from dead mummies to championship (and again) - Season I 1st round: The game starts with the opposing fans throwing rocks at one of our mummies and another mummy being killed. No regen. 2nd round: The only first season match in which we caused any casualties. That and sweltering heat takes us to victory. 3rd round: First half we beat them up, second half they beat us up. We still managed to score a second time and win, but it was close. 4th round: Morley's Revenge should be banned, it's too powerful for this format. We were lucky to draw the game. 5th round: Our opponent never responded to any of our requests to play. Forfeit and both teams lose 3 points. 6th round: I'm the Greatest should be banned, it's too powerful and causes the game to hang up (client bug). We were ordered to concede. 7th round: Our opponent has been ejected from the league so we are awarded a win by forfeit. Summary after the first main season: Our mummies have caused a grand total of one (1) casualty! Of the four (4) games we actually got to play we won 2 and lost 1 - satisfactory, considering we've been taking casualties in. The only way the team has changed from after match #4 to after match #7 is the loss of one FF and the accumulation of 3 league points - no SPP, no money, nothing else. Playoffs, 1st round: Mickey Finn vs undead, useless. We cas both their mummies, they regen. They cas a bloody four of our players. Season II 1st round: Lizards are nasty. With both blitz-ras injured, our mummies can't stop them from scoring. 0-3. 2nd round: Revenge. Mummies cause a zillion casualties, Frank does a lot of running with the ball. 3rd round: Killing two opposing players also helps win games, especially if the last remaining opponent has no hands. 4th round: The opposing chaos doesn't have any armour, makes things easy even when sweltering heat helps them score once. 5th round: Our opponent has been ejected from the league so we are awarded a win by forfeit. Playoffs, 1st round: Only one casualty caused, but it is first turn so it makes all the difference. Too easy a victory. Frank aged at 31. Playoffs, 2nd round: Some difficulty with the ball, but other than that fairly easy. Jack aged at 31, crap. Finals: 4 vs 4 since both teams have a niggler. Mostly a mummy brawl where we have the advantage, stall to win. Victory! Season III 1st round: Violent game with lots of lucky bad kicks, we are more violent than our opponents and regen saves us. 2nd round: The rats we face have foul smelling salts, so we don't cause any knockouts. We win but it is very close. 3rd round: Two first-turn casualties and no bad luck at all, not much of a challenge. Freebooter Bob causes two casualties. 4th round: We meet again. A fairly uneventful match against them chaos dwarves, no deaths this time. 5th round: A dodgy slimy ball and dodgy slimy rats beat us good. The end of a 10 match long winning streak. 6th round: Another game with two first-turn casualties caused. Mummies must have figured it's an easy way to win. 7th round: Only manage a tie against the dodgy chaos things even though only four of them show up. Ball behaving strange again. Playoffs, 1st round: We get to beat up squishy little norsemen. The ref is nice and lets us score two extra touchdowns on overtime. Playoffs, 2nd round: Elfy things that jump around all over the place and run too fast. Luckily they keep kicking the ball out of bounds. Finals: It wasn't this tough last time. Both teams struggle to succeed in even the most basic tasks, we finally win on overtime! Summary after three full seasons: Not bad. We rule. Our coach needs a break so we're stepping out and giving other teams a chance.
