The (JAWA) League for September, 2024 was held Sunday afternoon, following the 20th Anniversary celebration on the (JAWA) Server.  Due to the special occasion, former members were invited to participate, resulting in an astonishing thirty participants in the Duel Tournament!  A new champion was crowned, there was a three-way tie in Watch Out for that Sniper!, a close finish in a hotly-contested TFFA, and five events featured first-time winners!  Congratulations to all of this month's winners, and thanks to Wolfy for helping to host the (JAWA) League!

(JAWA) Darts:

In honour of the 20th Anniversary of our clan, this month's Darts competition was a throwback, held on Board 1 using Link's dart board design, and the adjustable platform set to the highest level.  We were originally going to use a custom map designed by Artemis, but technical issues caused the server to crash during testing.  We were still able to use Artemis' custom dart saber, with a special design featuring red and green darts!

 

Eighteen participants took three throws from this position, and a number of them needed practice throws (taken level with the board) so the competition took longer than usual, and the custom saber hilt combined with the unusual board design resulted in some very random scores!  Wolfy led off the competition with 1,300 points, which led until Helena Revan hit two 700's and a 500 to score 1,900 points.  Maverick followed up with a similar combination, two 500's and a 700, to finish with 1,700.  Despite a crowded field, nobody else was able to reach these two, with Tusko, Blunt, and RedBlueGreen tying for third place at 1,500 points in back-to-back-to-back turns, each of them hitting the 500 space with all three throws!

 

 

Watch Out for that Sniper!

By this time, the afternoon had taken its toll on many members, who decided to call it a day, but ten still remained for the sniper competition!  Normally a smaller field bodes well for the scoring, with multiple participants reaching double digits, and sometimes over twenty seconds!  But not so today, as the snipers were on target—and for the first time in the history of the event, three participants tied for the best score at just six seconds!  This month's winners were Wolfy, Helena Revan, and RedBlueGreen; nobody else lasted longer than four seconds.  There have been three-way ties in the Merc War (once) and (JAWA) Darts (two or three times), but this was the first three-way tie in Watch Out for that Sniper!

 

 

Merc War:

Shadow dominated this month's merc war with an unorthodox tactic, taking to the heights early with the DEMP-2 rifle to harry the other competitors!  After Helena Revan rocketed RedBlueGreen in a battle on the long bridge, EMP bursts forced her into an ambush by Link, who rocketed her.  Shadow then electrocuted Wolfy.  Link and Beggsy teamed up and set an ambush on the third level of Building 1, but Shadow came up the outside while they were staking out the elevator shaft, and surprised them, taking them both out.  The only other survivor being Dragon, they met once more on the small platform above the lava for a melee duel.  Dragon was unable to get a hold of his opponent to throw him into the lava, but he kept his place on the platform until he was finally bludgeoned to death, leaving Shadow victorious!

 

 

TFFA:

The Blue Team: IronSkull86 (C), Link, Myth, & Helena Revan

The Red Team: Beggsy (C), Shadow, Dragon, & RedBlueGreen

 

By request, this month's TFFA took place on Taspir III, with one team consisting entirely of current active members, and the other half active and half former members!  It looked to be a rough day for the red team, as blue jumped out to an early lead, and maintained it for the first half of the battle, before blue managed to eke out its first lead of the day.  The two sides traded the lead back and forth for a bit, before blue finally pulled ahead to stay, winning by a final score of 80–74!  Please note that "FumbleBumbleBeeDumbleDee" is former council member Myth, participating in the League for the first time since 2007!

We had hoped to do a Valis Hunt after the TFFA, but everyone was tired by then, and we decided to call it a day.

 

All of the event pages, the leader board, and everyone's WikiJawa profiles have been updated!

 

Congratulations to:

 

@Horizenex, @RedBlueGreen, and @Tusko, each of whom earned their first League win!

 

@^AcéS, whose first Duel Tournament and Championship give him sixteen League crowns, leaving him just three off the leader board, in thirty-third place all-time!

 

@Shadow, whose wins in the Tag-Team Tournament and Merc War give him sole possession of fifth place all-time with seventy-nine League titles!

a league of epic proportions  worthy of the 20th clanniversary... that's one way to put it

 

great to see some old members again, great to have some old school clashes during many events, and i might not have secured points this league, i had a great time trying..

 

thanks for hosting as always, was a blast

It was good fun though I admit my attention span was very lacking that day. Tusko with the clutch melee win was hilarious almost reminds me of WolfBoy's melee win that one time. Fun times.
