Ice Cream Scoreboard
The Ice Cream Game is basically a rolling game. A full set of rules can be found in the newest Colorado guidebook; Whitewater of the Southwest Rockies. What the rules boil down to is that the person who rolls the most times during a run buys everyone else ice cream. To help with the shame and heckling associated with losing the Ice Cream Game, we will be keeping a running score of the people we paddle with, and provide a public area for degrading comments.
A note on the scores. The "ties" are ties for last place. Sometimes the rules have to be flexed a little, in confusing situations. The "Winning %" is calculated by taking the number of wins plus half the number of ties, and dividing by the total number of runs that person has been on. Basically, a tie is half a win and half a loss.

Conor! You lost the ice cream game. You suck!
ReplyDeleteJust kidding. I hope you had fun on the Slave (how could you not?).
-Dan
Wait...I heard the stories of Bigwood fall. Nice job launching a perfect boof and somehow landing on your head! Haha, maybe Leif is bad luck...I did it too.
ReplyDeleteYeah the Slave was pretty sweet! I won the ice cream game every time we played it there (oddly not posted).
-Conor
Look, we agreed that the Slave was Big Water, so the ICG rules shouldn't apply. Besides... what about that day at the Dread Ledge?
