Highlights, 2004-2005: wiki-ize and added sticky note info
=== Highlights, 2004-2005 ===
* '''Sheer volume.''' The 153 games played far eclipsed any other year's total. It is even more impressive because 145 were needed to even reach a 500th game, and the vast majority of these were played even before [[Spring Break ]] started in mid-March. Only 8 games were played after the 500th - a beautiful spring meant volleyball and golf took hold of Jonathan and Zach's afternoons.
* '''Official The official scoreboard storyis crafted the day of the 500th game.''' Until the 500th game, Jonathan had kept the tally on a sticky note on his computer, with Zach entirely unable to add single digit numbers, and asking Jonathan every few days to remind him what the standings were. After being nagged for seven months to make a scoreboard of similar quality to Jonathan's classy 2003-2004 wood-burned version, Zach took up the task with plenty of time to spare. The morning of April 10th he began thinking of finding a bedsheet to write on. Not wanting to soil his own sheet, he "borrowed" one from Karen Untereker '05. At approximately noon, with the 500th game scheduled for 1pm, Zach found some markers in [[Chadbourne]], spread the sheet out on the common room floor, and created a masterpiece of art. By 12:55pm, [[tour|tours ]] leaving from the [[Admissions Office ]] were openly laughing at his struggles duct taping it to the [[Perry ]] Volleyball net as the wind wrapped it around and around the cords. But for all arriving at the party at 1pm, it appeared the scoreboard had been tended to the whole year - carefully tabulated and color-coded, it rippled in the breeze as a 6 by 8 foot testament to four years of friendship and competition.
