Our League Champions - Credit Where Credit is Due

 

  This post has been a long time coming. I was meant to do this right from the beginning, but, y'know, I'm an idiot. 
  I think it's only fair, right and proper that our League Champions get their moment in the sun. Yes, we play other competitions, but for the BHO the Yahtzee League is our flagship tournament, so the champions of it should get special recognition. After all, what is the point of posessing a beautiful trophy/slash plaque if you can't show it off to the world?! 
  From this moment forth, each League Champion will have their own post to show off their glorious achievement, but as there are only two so far I thought we could do a bit of a catch-up. So, here they are, the horrible people that managed to get the best of me... and the rest of our faction. But I'm not (am) bitter about it. But seriously, congratulations... honest!

League 1 Champion - Claire Hoggarth


  Our inaugural winner. Despite the fact that she's an out and out drunkard, she managed to keep it together just long enough to make the rest of us look like absolute melons. She played with precision and poise, and obviously came away with the victory. Yes, she may have fallen off the boil since her victory (aside from winning the End Of Year Knockout) but even now she proves that her victory was anything but a fluke. Even when she loses it's hard to write her off until the game is well and truly over. Claire, well done, there will never be another very first League Champion, so much respect. Just don't win again!

League 2 Champion - Kerrie Bush

  It really aggravates me to say it, but Kerrie's League win was nothing short of amazing! Within the first four or five matches she had amassed an insurmountable lead that was never surpassed during the entire competition. I have have never seen the amount of Yahtzees from one person over the course of fifteen games as I did from Kerrie. It was nothing short of miraculous... and if I might add, infuriating! She showed us just how dangerous she can be at the Yahtzee board, AND she did it all while simultaneously shopping online. She has proved that if there is such a thing as a Yahtzee savant, she is the closest approximation I have ever seen. Again, congratulations, and once more... don't do it again!!!
