Back on May 11 there was a dude what came to play RPS for one night only – The Professor is a professor of Math & Other Stuff from Oxford University in merry ol’ England. He came to the PBRPRPSCLCS to play RPS with Math for an episode for an upcoming BBC show called The Code. (The Professor told me that the eposide featuring RPS would then segue into patterns left by serial killers. Hopefully there are no other correlations between the PBRPRPSCLCS and serial killers, but only time will tell.) We chose to play RPS with Beer. In the end it’s hard to say who won, because it wasn’t the Professor (he defeated Ziro in Round 1 and then lost to Dick Nasty in Round 3) and it wasn’t us – dOGulas lost in the Final to Sweetji. PJ Rhymeswithsausage beat The Professor for some Street money, but that really didn’t matter so much. PJ took second place in Street on the night to J Martin Hill by a margin of six fake dollars. And as those shirts from the ‘90s so eloquently put it, 2nd place is the first looser. So let’s hear it for David Bowie’s Package sweeping the First Loser spots on the night!
Hipster Thrifter went out to the El Bar for a night of Birthday RPS on May 23. And she did awesome, drinking drinks and winning lots of matches. But not all of the matches. That honor fell to fellow Package member Ziro!!! Ziro freaking won!! And in an ALL PACKAGE FINAL! How awesome is that? Super awesome. Plus, it finally gets Ziro & dOGulas (who had nothing to do with the final match but is in the picture anyway for some reason) a picture on the Package Blog! Everyone wins! But actually only Ziro won, which is awesome, but kinda lame that you ruined Hipster Thrifter’s birthday like that.
Our final update comes from the final day in May. David Bowie’s Package was rolling mad deep on the night – in attendance was Mr. Is, Legg E. Blonde, Master Brader, PJ Rhymeswithsausage, dOGulas, Hipster Thrifter, and Zombie Llama. And we all lost. Baconshark casually crushed the competition all the way up to the final and was winning that 2-0 before Panty Bandit mounted a comeback to win the night. PJ Rhymeswithsausage did his darndest to win street but was off by like $60.
That was a lot of nights of second place finishes and first round losses. And Package members did play many other nights during the past 3 weeks, but it’s safe to say that those were unremarkable losses. Which I guess means taking second place is a remarkable loss?
