By the way, I finally found the blasted problem. The fuse in the voltage regulator had come loose enough so that, although it was making contact and turning the LED on, the current wasn’t enough to heat the element. Stupid thing sat there for three hours like that. Oh well. ---

I’ve been promising some notes from the all-time history of our little game. These results are complete through the fourth quarter of 2006.\* First, a huge thank you to **X-Ray** , who seems to have been a real driving force behind the game. How about an award for a brilliant, though brief, career. **hightechburrito** played only once and won that game. Untouchable (maybe) record award: **Duke of Rat** won the first 3 games he played. Other notable streaks: **Dag Otto** won 3 weeks in a row, and **nesta** and **Kyyrewyyoae** each won 2 weeks in a row. Some sympathy awards: most games played without a win: **Asterion** , at 69 (but who remedied this situation last week. Congratulations, Ast!) One win: **Robot Arm** , in 50 games; and **X-ray** , in 25 games. Familiar faces (most games played): 1 Kyyrewyyoae 81 2 Duke of Rat 80 3 Nanook of the North 80 4 Yeticus Rex 76 5 Only Mostly Dead 73 6 Asterion 69 7 Miss Take 68 8 Dag Otto 64 9 Oslo Ostragoth 53 10 nesta 52 11 Robot Arm 50 12 Gangster Octopus 45 13 Capn Pitt 44 All-time rating and games played: 1 hightechburrito 90.9 1 2 Bricker 80.0 1 3 Lamar Mundane 78.5 4 4 nesta 71.0 52 5 Max the Vool 69.4 5 6 John F 69.4 2 7 Kyyrewyyoae 66.8 81 8 MindWanderer 66.0 3 9 Gangster Octopus 65.5 45 10 Dag Otto 64.4 64 11 Yeticus Rex 63.9 76 12 E=mc2 63.6 1 13 hajario 63.6 1 14 Nanook of the North 61.6 80 15 Oslo Ostragoth 61.5 53 16 Duke of Rat 61.4 80 17 elucidator 60.6 3 18 Robot Arm 59.4 50 19 Miss Take 57.5 68 20 Aholibah 57.2 39 21 Misnomer 54.6 18 22 Capn Pitt 54.2 44 23 Asterion 52.3 69 24 Capa 51.2 11 25 Only Mostly Dead 50.9 73 26 Lightning Fool 43.0 11 26 Cynical Gabe 42.9 4 27 Omniscient 41.3 4 28 Xray 39.0 25 29 Exploding Kitchen 34.0 16 30 Aesiron 29.4 5 31 Oakminister 21.1 2 32 fubbleskag 13.6 4 33 Otto 9.1 1 If we impose a 6-game minimum: 1 nesta 71.0 52 2 Kyyrewyyoae 66.8 81 3 Gangster Octopus 65.5 45 4 Dag Otto 64.4 64 5 Yeticus Rex 63.9 76 6 Nanook of the North 61.6 80 7 Oslo Ostragoth 61.5 53 8 Duke of Rat 61.4 80 9 Robot Arm 59.4 50 10 Miss Take 57.5 68 11 Aholibah 57.2 39 12 Misnomer 54.6 18 13 Capn Pitt 54.2 44 14 Asterion 52.3 69 15 Capa 51.2 11 16 Only Mostly Dead 50.9 73 17 Lightning Fool 43.0 11 18 Xray 39.0 25 19 Exploding Kitchen 34.0 16 All-time winning percentage and games played: 1 hightechburrito 100.0% 1 2 MindWanderer 33.3% 3 3 Lamar Mundane 25.0% 4 4 Max the Vool 20.0% 5 5 Kyyrewyyoae 17.3% 81 6 Dag Otto 14.1% 64 7 Duke of Rat 13.8% 80 8 Nanook of the North 12.5% 80 9 Yeticus Rex 11.8% 76 10 nesta 11.5% 52 11 Capn Pitt 11.4% 44 12 Gangster Octopus 11.1% 45 13 Capa 9.1% 11 14 Only Mostly Dead 8.2% 73 15 Aholibah 7.7% 39 16 Oslo Ostragoth 7.5% 53 17 Miss Take 4.4% 68 18 Xray 4.0% 25 19 Robot Arm 2.0% 50 20 Aesiron 0.0% 5 21 Asterion 0.0% 69 22 Bricker 0.0% 1 23 Cynical Gabe 0.0% 4 24 elucidator 0.0% 3 25 E=mc2 0.0% 1 26 Exploding Kitchen 0.0% 16 26 fubbleskag 0.0% 4 27 hajario 0.0% 1 28 John F 0.0% 2 29 Lightning Fool 0.0% 11 30 Misnomer 0.0% 18 31 Oakminister 0.0% 2 32 Omniscient 0.0% 4 33 Otto 0.0% 1 If we again impose a 6-game minimum: 1 Kyyrewyyoae 17.3% 81 (14 wins) 2 Dag Otto 14.1% 64 (9 wins) 3 Duke of Rat 13.8% 80 (11 wins) 4 Nanook of the North 12.5% 80 (10 wins) 5 Yeticus Rex 11.8% 76 6 nesta 11.5% 52 7 Capn Pitt 11.4% 44 8 Gangster Octopus 11.1% 45 9 Capa 9.1% 11 10 Only Mostly Dead 8.2% 73 11 Aholibah 7.7% 39 12 Oslo Ostragoth 7.5% 53 13 Miss Take 4.4% 68 14 Xray 4.0% 25 15 Robot Arm 2.0% 50 16 Asterion 0.0% 69 17 Misnomer 0.0% 18 18 Exploding Kitchen 0.0% 16 19 Lightning Fool 0.0% 11 \*There is no guarantee that my results are 100% accurate. ---
