Scenario Shenanigans: The Series   

“Point Shenanigans”

 

So, one of the goals I’ve set for myself this year is to be more active on my blog. This year, I plan on doing a lot of heads-up blogging on events I’ve witnessed throughout the different scenario games I’ve attended. I’m sure some will surprise you but most probably won’t shock you at all.

Rather than overload you with all the details at once, I’ll spread them out over time. This will be about 6 years or so of playing scenario ball and it always amazes me the amount of shenanigans that goes on behinds the scenes. Anything from point manipulations all the way up to teams throwing a fit and if they don’t get their way “They Walk” as I’ve heard it put. This series of blog posts will shed to light some of the personal things I’ve witnessed over those 6 years. For the sake of not hurting anyone’s feelings or them getting their panties in a wad, the names of the fields and participants will remain out of my posts. However, those with even only half a brain cell could easily figure them out.

My first experience was at the beginning of my scenario days and at a field I had played at prior to the one scenario game in question. This particular was played to the best of our ability and we were winning as of Saturday night. Mysteriously, by Sunday morning, the numbers had changed. Now keep in mind, no play had happened between the previous number tally and the next morning, but the numbers changed.  When questioned, the response was they had forgotten to add in some missions that the other side had completed. I found this strange as the one side that was winning had numbers that had decreased. Coincidence or slight of hand to keep the losing team coming back to future events?  The winning team took it to heart and decided to go out giving 150% and do what they needed to and it wasn’t even close at the end. Yet when the numbers were added up it was “oh so close”. I’m assuming

“point shenanigans” were evident that day and the game results survived as the team that was winning in the beginning took back what was already theirs.

While I know these accusations are hard to prove they shed to light that at any given time a sneaky promoter can swing the same results to help line their pocket for the next game. Keep in mind not all promoters and game writers do this but always keep an eye out for the “Points Shenanigans”.
