| Kristen posted which fields would be used on the OSC forum in early March. She listed fields 5 and 6 then later clarified that they would be the Chronic and Eclipse fields.
As to the bonding issues, I don't know. I didn't get the feeling that people were being stand-offish. The 2-field setup, separate player paddocks, energy sapping sand, and large team list may've kept things a little less personal. I only went to the player paddocks once (to go find my wife after the prelims were over to see how her team did). I know there were a couple of teams that I normally talk with that I barely saw off the fields.
Shiba-Kun was hanging out with the Hitmen, Hendschmen, and Hard Eight.
In regards to the round-robin format, I thought it worked out pretty well. The final game between the Hitmen and Blowfish was for first place. I know it was a bit of luck to have had it work out that way, but it wasn't anticlimactic, was it? I may be a little biased about the finish, though. |
