This is a MUST for every serious tank. It won't happen again this year. Maybe not even next year. .... ;-)

Trust me writing the code (after a 10 yrs hiatus) was no fun. Muddy is right, won't happen again for a LONG time.
So glad I don't do this for a living!!!
I have an increased appreciation for all that the devs and hosts do for bzflag

Dear BzFlag 1vs1 Community,

The 20th Anniversary Tourney came to an end on Aug 17 with the final match being played between ducatiwannabe and moroni.
  • 1st place: Moroni
  • 2nd place: ducatiwannabe
  • 3rd place: Gaboot

If they are amenable, they can post pictures of their prizes, so you can see that they do exist :wink:
40 players registered in all and I want to thank each and everyone of you who participated. It was so exciting to have Zongo join in!!!
Some of you were new to the 1vs1 League and I sincerely hope you continue to play. It helps your dodging & rico skills.

I cannot thank catay and strayer enough for all their help, support and (especially) their patience with me as I navigated github :D
Thank you to allejo & mudfreak for their servers which made this possible.
