Rub a dub dub

The first match:

BZI: luna, jh, Admirarch
DUB: Blue Eyes, Mr Molez, Viking

This match started badly: very badly. Within what seemed like seconds we were two captures down and staring a heavy defeat in the face. I was floundering around in the middle of nowhere, luna was vaguely trying to put up some resistance and jh seemed to be somewhere else entirely. When luna declared "I lag" and jh "I suck" the match looked pretty much over.

Out of nowhere a capture, a glimmer of hope, a chance of a comeback. Steeling all my resolve and striking my most Churchillian pose I declared, in what, had we not gone on to lose 3-1, would have gone down as one of the most truly inspiring lines in bzflag, "Lagger, Sucker: we're still in this". Inevitably nothing could compare to this moment and the match sort of went downhill from there.
DUB win 3-1
15 minute match

Swapping lagger for Sportchick, as his lag was getting too out of hand we continued on to a rematch.

BZI: Admirarch, Sportchick, jh
DUB: Blue Eyes, Mr_Molez, Viking
15 minute match
BZI win 2-1

I've completely forgotten what happened here, details please!

And finally, a third match with the same players as before:
15 minute match
BZI win 4-1.

actually i found that comment during the match so hilarious that i just could not stop laughing and lost my just-found concentration, but i doubt it would have changed the final outcome in this one:P.
