The Barons gave us a wake-up call
Late Saturday night / early Sunday, SportChick and Dervish matched up with orbit and Skit from The Barons. It was a grueling, humbling match for Dervish, being out of the CTF league for such a long time, but SportChick seemed to hold her own pretty well. We came out with a loss of 4 to 0.
Both of us were getting worked over pretty well by cross-fire from the two Barrons, especially when caught alone. However, orbit and Skit are not invincible. It took Dervish a while to warm up, coming close to a flag cap once. We simply couldn't stop The Barons for capping; we could only slow them down a bit.
Dervish just came from a couple hours of play on silvercat CTF. Switching modes from all flags and jumping to Ducati-style wasn't easy. Dervish had his BZFlag GUI set up for jumping maneuvers, not full-size radar, but he will change this for the next match. SportChick was nice enough not to berate Dervish for the poor performance, since after all, BZ-Inc is a learning team. He'll need a lot of practice to shake off the rust. :)

Puh! You played quite well, especially considering how long it's been since you played ducati! Besides orbit & skit are tough! :)
Thanks SportChick. :) You held out really well when you were playing solo against the two of them as I came back each time from my spawns. They pinned you often, but you stuck it out each time!
