Ghostman on Third: BarBuzz: Kiss me, under the WAKA moonlight

What an awesome first week of kickball for WAKA VA Peninsula! We have some awesome teams which are going to shape up to be great on and off the field.

I've said it a million times, but rookies are my favorite part of every season. They bring so much energy and wonder that brings a renewed freshness to the league and I was fortunate enough to play Pitching Dez in their inaugural game! This team had such energy on the field, which translated way too well off the field! So in honor of the newbs, I'd love to do this throwback to a post I wrote my first season of WAKA Wednesdays, because it is still actually very relevant!

So this week I channeled my inner nerd and started using a SPREADSHEET - thank you Jason Williamson. But as this is totally introductory, I'm confident there can be room for improvement. As mentioned last week, points will be added as follows:

5 for a picture proving your team had at least 3 people at the bar that night

UPDATE: post it anytime before midnight

5 for actively participating in whatever the challenge is that week

UPDATE: I am changing the point value to 5 points, and will award up to 5, so your team could get 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 points. ( I did that this week for 3 points) The points will be awarded based on what I see at the bar, number of teammates participating, the pictures on facebook, and the word around the street that night. Some people make it very obvious they're doing the challenge - do that! This is to get people out of their comfort zone, encourage teams to mingle, and to create a fun and exciting atmosphere. If you have ideas for challenges, I welcome them! But just know the majority, if not all, will be based on social media.

1 for each person represented in the midnight photo

It seems my iphone doesn't take the best pictures in dim bar lighting from that far away....soooo, please have your (kickball) shirt on and try to make yourself visible.

Below are the points from this past week. Your points renew each week, but they'll all carry over to the end of the season when the real winner will be announced!
