Re: Why the pattern of naming mini-comps with initials R.R.?

Well, I suppose a little history is in order.

In 2000 we named our comp. Ramp Riot after the small, central Ramp. We gave our comp. a game specific name, because we figured we would never be stupid enough to organize another mini-comp.

In 2001 when we figured out we WERE dumb enough to do this twice, there was yet another Ramp in the game.

The most confusing year was Ramp Riot 2002, which left many spectators looking around for a ramp.

But now that we have built a rep., we are stuck with the name.

In 2003 the RAMP was BACK!!! (Phewww!!)

For 2004 we will just pretend that the platform is a Ramp. (it kind of is by the steps)

Every year we pray that the game will involve some type of Ramp!!! (What a nightmare!!!)
