You'll never guess what just happened:

Spoiler! :
The Instructors couldn't believe it. It was a lie.

A lie.

No doubt about it.

How could the Greeters beat them again? However they did it, they weren't doing it again, and the Instructors were very sure about that.

Some didn't believe it though. Twice the Greeters proved them wrong, and twice the Instructors paid for their assumptions. Some left the team for the JMods. Some just left. But many stuck with it. They were going to be victorious, despite the little faith those cowards had.

Over those two months as they lost and gained members, they also gained sportsmanship, friendship, and encouragementship. They dared to step into Greeter territory once again, but instead of mocking the Blues' actions, they fell to their knees and begged for another rematch.

Of course, the Blues couldn't refuse. It was time. To. Duel.

Duh-duh-duh-duh-d-d-d-d-duel!

They would switch jobs, the strong-willed Greeters suggested. The Purps can be Greeters for a week, and the Blues can be Instructors for a week. May the better team win.

The Purps were all, Thank you! Thankyouthankyouthankyou!

And the May Battle of the Purp vs Blue War began!


From May 3rd to May 10th, the Instructors and Greeters were challenged to switch jobs. That is, the Greeters would critique, and the Instructors would welcome new members. Sounds intense, right? Probably not, but it was for them!

This time no mods were elected to assist the teams. They were on their own this time around. But! They were also to work harder than ever. Little mercy would be given. Two months after their first battle, new members joined their ranks. New minds and words worked together to fight another battle, and only Jabber God knows when that would be.

And now, with the battle over, the results are here! Results were in the right ballpark considering the number of judges participating. In the end, we (judges being Kitty15, Lin910, springrain, Demeter, and JabberHut) decided on the proper results. The moment you all have been waiting for! (Or some of you!) With, of course, the top three leading team members.

Purps: 131
Previous score: 174

    Lin910: 25
    Pippiedooda: 24
    mimimac: 20

    Blues: 149
    Previous score: 178

      Rosey Unicorn: 67
      tnme22: 23
      *writewatiwant*: 17

The Greeters have won!

...For now...

It was a great war, and I loved it.

I think I might start greeting more, actually.

But, congrats to the blues! (coughsneezeroseydidwaytoomanysneezecough)

Go Rosey and tnme and writewatiwant and all the other greeters! And it was a good war, to all of the purps who participated. I look forward to the next one. Let's see what happens next.
There once was a cat.
He wasn’t particularly fat.
Fuzzy was his favorite mat.
And really, that was that.

Oh, but did you really think so?
Keep reading, it’s just the start of the show!
And as for how far this tale will go…
Well, even the cat doesn’t know.
