With forecasts of another sharknado, the locus bocci for Round 5 was shifted to the Vietnam Memorial in Kings Park.

Actually, there were only a few drops of rain and even fewer sharks.

Despite the rain, Pisco Piranhas (Stella playing without Cannonball) had a fair day, eclipsing Soft 9-0, but losing 4-7 to Super Big Buzz-Balls (SuperMario and Big Pineapple sans Buzz) 7-4.

Yes, Banker and Brad would have had a better result if they had stayed home and forfeited both their games, as their other game saw The Young Ones prevail 7-0. If Soft had instead forfeited both games, the 9-0 loss against PP would have been reduced to only 7-0.

Those two lossses saw Soft sink softly to the bottom rung of the ladder.

Also near the bottom of the ladder after Round 5 is The Singularity (Rawalpindi playing Round 5 in the absence of Stormin’ Norman Hound Dog Taylor), after RE seized defeat from the jaws of victory, losing 8-6 to the surging Beastly Justice.

The day’s other game saw Motherchucker chomp up SBBB, 8-2. Although Mochu thereby went from third place to second, Beastly Justice still sits atop the ladder with three home-and-away rounds to go.
