Regional, Round 7: Photocopier vs Headset
« on: Dec 22, 2012, 01:09 am »
After seeing the bloodbath that resulted in both of these teams' prior matches, I'm almost afraid to announced the start of this Regional division elite 8 game. On the Home team we've got Big Copy, the Machine with the Most, it isn't the NBA but it definitely does Jam, it's the Photocopier!

Filling up the Away lockers tonight we've got the stage manager's best friend, the device that has made and broken many a stage manager (and their eardrums), fresh from a narrow 3 point win over the mighty cell phone... it's the Headset!

Let's give it up for both of these teams. They've had a rough battle to get this far and no matter which side wins this is bound to be an excellent game. We've got paramedics standing by, but if you see a toner cartridge heading your way... duck?

Game ends Tuesday at noon CST. Play nice, y'all.

The headset is awesome. They both have power switches. How will I choose?

I just....well, I remember back in Melbourne once someone plugged in their headset hot...I will never forget that.

I can hold a grudge for a long time.

Kay, your writeups are my favorite. ;)
I personally would like to bring a tortoise onto the stage, turn it into a racehorse, then into a hat, a song, a dragon and a fountain of water. One can dare anything in the theatre and it is the place where one dares the least. -Ionesco

sad, how far the mighty photo copier has fallen . . .

it has been stabbed in the back . . .

probably with a multi-tool.

all those are really good for anyway.

pain and hurt.

Multi tool would have a fighting chance here.

This is what you get.
