October 2005 wrap-up:
We all know that our fair game was invented in England back around 1630 by Sir John Suckling. Seems that some of Sir John's compatriots are getting into the ACC Internet Cribbage act in the true international spirit of the game and the Web. Thus it is that we have our first tournament winner from the UK: Adrian Parslow (CorbLimeeGuv5), who moves the pegs from Salisbury, England. Adrian overcame the time zone difference and Rick Allen (VA0198) in the Finals to run the tally to four countries that have hosted an ACC Internet Cribbage winner (you know who the first two are, and France is the third). Congratulations to you Adrian!

Meanwhile, Scott Buhrow (MrB_IA218) of Louisville, KY, tacked 72 IRPs onto his total to retain first place in the standings. Last year's Internet Champion Mark Van Dyke (loosespokes1135) of Grand Haven, MI is in second place. Surging into third place is player-of-the-month Marilyn Gaudreau with the picturesque nickname of DisownedHarbor3 and the picturesque name-bearing hometown of Agawam, MA. Marilyn racked up several high finishes on the month, including one victory, to make her presence known on the Top Ten list.

Curiosities department:
During the Monday, October 17 Pegging Pals tournament, not one, but two 28 hands were had by ACC players in the first round. Sherri Perelli (ACCMA242) was the first to report, followed shortly thereafter by David D. Braach (papa349). Tournament Director Don Ellis (+_LoneStar__) reports that both players won their respective matches!

Later that night, Jim Crawford met Katy Schafer in a rather thunderous Finals match. Jim's email has "lightningbolt" in it while Katy's has "stormy".

First timers:
In addition to Adrian Parslow, October saw four other first time winners, led off by our own Internet Cribbage Commissioner, Bob Milk, who plays from Richmond, VA as Moojus. Richard May (rcmay5) of Waukegan, IL, Nancy R. Roncetti (anunziar) of Wyncote, PA and Murray Eakin (muledeer) of Abbotsford, BC also notched their first ACC Internet tournament victories during the month.
