Are There Any Humans Out There?

It appears that there may actually be no humans currently in contention for the Republican Presidential Nomination if this is correct. Sure, we all knew Snagglepuss, Cthulhu and Ron Paul weren't actually human, but Mitt Romney too? Say it ain't so, Mitt!

More Zombie attacks

Alert reader Rival Kane spotted this important news item about zombie attacks in Miami. It seems like nowhere is safe these days!

Additional Circles

We're not quite sure what to make of these circles of stone, since they were built on a vertical plane. But I'm sure there is some good Orcish game that they are used for. Maybe some early predecessor to croquet? Check them out!

More Strange Circles

We've continued our digging around Broomfield, Colorado and have discovered some new circles unlike any we've seen before. That place must have been like the effin' Orc Olympics! Check these out:

We've got no idea what game was played in these, but if you have any ideas, let me know. Given all these recent developments, we've decided to make Broomfield the base of our filming operations for Apocalypse WOW! Make sure you make your way there as soon as possible so the show can begin.

Final IDR Results

Congratulations to Tasmania Fame for setting a new record high score in the most recent IDR. The excellent showing allowed Fame to retain his slim lead in overall IDR score. The highest total IDR scores for our Spring Session were:

1. Tasmania Fame: 127

2. Doug Carr: 125

3. Matraxis Vile: 123

Great job by all participants in discovering information that is key to understanding the End of the World. I'm sure everyone now knows exactly what they need to do! Right.

Deal or No Deal Results

As we mentioned earlier this round of Deal or No Deal was notable for Matraxis Vile's high score. This greatly aided the average score, reaching a new record high of 306,320. The median score was 50,000, still far from a record. Top scores were:

1. Matraxis Vile: 2,000,000

2. Rival Kane: 400,000

3. Steve Martin: 253,126

With Fame coming in with a poor showing of 1,000 and his closest competitors taking two of the top three spots, could he hold onto the lead? It was oh so close. With two other competitors also scoring 1,000 and another coming in at 750, the point totals based on place of finish in each contest ended up this way:

1. Tasmania Fame: 60

2. Steve Martin: 59.5

3. Matraxis Vile: 57.5

4. Blake Cates: 51.5

At the other end of the spectrum, Robbie Tork managed to avoid having to kick off our in-person Deal or No Deal tournament thanks to an amazingly poor string of showings by Gregory Runcic. Just how bad was it? In the final seven games, Runcic's combined total score was... well we don't want to embarrass Gregory, but let's just say that his combined total wouldn't have cracked our top three scores from this round. It just goes to show that handling billions of dollars isn't necessarily the best skill set for knowing when to make a deal!
