Notes from the organizer: Don’t look down (or up, I suppose) because it’s time for the Skytrak! The Contenders had to race one lap around a small Scalextric-type course with the Gladiators in hot pursuit… while 40 feet in the air and hanging upside-down from the ceiling.
To reflect this dizzying height, I could have been REALLY evil and given you a Spoilage 9, but I’ve settled on a mere Hyper 9. Even though it won’t be reflected on the website, you’ll get a 10-point head start. You can fall 10 points behind in the middle of a game, but the important thing is to finish fewer than 10 behind at least, which will net you 10 points. If both contenders manage to outrun their Gladiators, then the win by the higher margin (from the Contenders’ perspective) would score 10 and the other would score 5.
rrrrreadyyyyy!
