Fling Legends
The Sammiches now count a new legend: Tom Vampling.

Vampling had to survive multiple gang fouls and return twice from the KO box against The_Sage's Accepting Hopelessness to steal a Touchdown and grind that one missing SPP.

Over the years, the Sammiches have had several legends, who have all added a new dimension to the team:

Pipin Piethrower: not a legend according to the NAF ranking, but he was the brightest star the team ever had. The Sammiches are famous for their psycho trees - he was the fling version. Pipin was the epitome of selfishness. Everything was about him when he was on the pitch. He made it to the top of the Flings Cas list, and held the record for more than a year.

Bob Berserkling: the guy who rolled 4 double 6, the stat freak... That guy could single handedly win games. There was nowhere to hide when he was on the pitch, no safe place. He was a monster, but he also was too perfect, and not as much fun as Pipin.

Garion Winling: the boring one. How did he become a legend? I'm not sure. He wasn't special. I probably wouldn't remember him if he wasn't in the team's bio.

Bob Ratling: the crazy one. He made his début in a GLT as TTM material, and won the qualifier. He then realized that injuring opposing players was cool too, and bashed his way to 176 SPP. But he got bored again, and invented a new way of playing Stunties: halfballing. Even though he's no longer #1, he has literally created the Flings passing top list.

And finally, there's the new one:

Tom Vampling: that guy is kinda special. He's the most selfless fling I've ever had. Usually, fling legends are the most egotistic players you can imagine, but not this one. He's on the pitch to help his team mates shine. He's all about helping the team. He will grab that ball in multiple TZ and pass it to Master Tree or any fling in range. He will fly or run to save games when no one else is able to. He's the guy who fixes mistakes, who perform incredible moves so his team mates can stay in the competition. A truly unique fling, for sure.

Time to start chasing Lupino and Lupone. Go get 'em, Tom!
Posted by Roland on 2015-04-22 16:00:13
Holy cr*p, that tom vampling is a real halfling coach dream!
Posted by the_Sage on 2015-04-22 16:07:58
For a ST1 no-block AV7 stunty, he sure is resilient!
Posted by Zed on 2015-04-22 16:16:06
Could go very far but he needs an ag 4 sidekick to help him out with the ball and take the hit sometimes instead ^^

Catch on a blocker could do the job for regular ball carrying.

Also, playing in the leeg taught me how to protect your best players (but not babysitting / pixelhugging), which is invaluable when you have to deal with such a fragile stat freak.

Wow, that's one serious TTM scoring machine!
Posted by the_Sage on 2015-04-22 17:12:42
And yes, for an OTTD having an AG4 kick-off return diving catch would be nice. =D

Awesome

Cool summery! All those flings deserve to be mentioned. :-)
Posted by Khor_Varik on 2015-04-22 18:45:15
AG4 + KOR + block is surely nice :)

I got the -st on him in a fluke on T16. Due to a riot there was an improved chance to tie up the game and we moved in to try to push him away from a tree... and ended up breaking him instead. :( A shameful way to injure such a fling but at least it hasn't slowed him down much (ha). Well done!
Posted by akaRenton on 2015-04-22 19:53:49
That fling should be flying.
Posted by Kam on 2015-04-22 20:09:08
@ Happygrue: yeah, that was a great game. And don't forget how he refused to take that ball that was handed to him on the turn before. :D

@ Khor: you just say that because of your nickname...
