Drat. Small mistake. HannesS got "MVP", not "damaged every enemy", but all the
points are still the same. Unfortunately.

it was that they did a fine job of killing off the opposition's best player
(2008 champion); yet another way of looking at is that supremo Tomas sacrificed
himself but took two of the bad guys away from the main action. A fourth way
would be: it was all just luck masquerading as skill. All were true.

Jean and Richard (leaving Tomas to tie them up), grabbed the good guys' flag,
and waltzed round to plant it while Bob was still messing about near the enemy
flagbase, with flag, wondering how to get past Hannes and get home … too late.
DaveB planted a flag for victory.

bit, I'd think. Give AllanM time to note this post and update the tables, then
you can view the tables under "photos" file. If it says 22/02/09, then it's the
latest. I gather this photo file is only open to registered members? So, if
you're one of those members of the ftf club who isn't also a member on the site,
you'll need to sign up to the site to have access to "photos" to see them. OR,
Allan might copy the update into a post for all to be able to view. Up to him.
