Ali, Federer, Lancaster?
Lancaster's obsession with the game and his ultra-competitive nature, led to a ridiculously long winning streak. Great at first (fans had a hero to barrack for), especially for the Dutch, his unrivaled dominance made the game uninteresting and went to his head. Despite the constant emergence of fresh blood, great talent, even after the retirement of Matty, Chris gave title shots to relatively weaker players. He even stooped so low as to offer 2dot-by-2dot games, which result in ONE box, given to the one who made the second move. Guess who would always make the second move...
It was also said that some of Chris' opponents didn't know which title they were fighting for, until Chris won, in which case it somehow was almost always the World title that was up for grabs...
The Beginning of the End
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 11/10/2002, 8:05am, 3:1, IC
Chris retains the IC against William Chung, in a match that was deemed to have happend.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 11/10/2002, 8:38am, 13:3, WC
Chris retains the WC on Willie's first shot at it.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 15/10/2002, 10:12am, 3:1, EC
In the space of 1 week, Chris defended all 3 titles against the same player. Chung was listed with dual nationality, Chinese-Australian, and with other Aussies, was allowed to enter the European Championship as a Briton.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 15/10/2002, 10:51am, 3:1, WC, EC, IC
For the first time ever, all titles were on the line. Chris successfully defended all 3 in one match and defended all 3 twice in one week.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Calvin Wong, 16/10/2002, 9:59am, 3:1, IC
Wong was unable to claim back some Chinese pride (AzN Pride!) from Willie's humiliations.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Dean Byrnes, 16/10/2002, 10:20am, 3:1, EC
Too good mate. Too good.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Dean Byrnes, 16/10/2002, 12:03am, 3:1, EC
Maaaaaaaate!!!!!
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Dean Byrnes, 23/10/2002, 11:17am, 3:1, WC
Finally Dean gets a shot at the World title, only to lose anyway. Of course.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Matthew Mills, 29/10/2002, 9:15am, 3:1, WC
Guess who's back? Back again? No, it's not Ems or even Teebs, it's Matty! Sick of Chris' dominance and disgusting behaviour, Matt comes out of retirement. Only to be taught a valuable lesson. Chris is too good mate. Too good. Maaaaaaaate!!!!! Defending the WC so soon after conquering Teebs and Deano.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 6/11/2002, 12:07pm, 4:0, WC
Willie has lost it. Chris wins 4:0, 100% box ratio. That shouldn't even be possible except in 2dot-by-2dot games. Even amateurs don't get hammered so bad. William's ranking plummets and it may well be a long while before he ever gets a shot again.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Matthew Mills, 23/11/2002, 9:59am, 3:1, IC
Losing to his arch-nemesis has become a hobby of poor Matty. At least he resigned before being utterly humiliated. Likely outcome: 3:1.
Chris signals his intention to give Deano and IC shot and Matty an EC shot, so that he can say he embarrassed the other "big 4" players in all 3 competitions. Loser.
Matthew has improved his form and is back in the top 3 again after Chung's decline. Expresses desire to have MASSIVE battle against Chris for the WC. A match like we have never seen before.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Timothy Haywood, 27/04/2003, 4:25pm, 3:1, WC
Chris grants the unknown "Fisherman" a WC shot in an invitational. Timmy disappeared soon after the match. Last seen in Melbourne or wherever (tell me again - why did you leave sunny Brisbane for Melbourne?).
After yet another win, even Chris was getting bored with life at the top. He turned to Noughts and Crosses, discovering "sure win" strategies with former rival Microwave Mills.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Dean Byrnes, 7/05/2003, 9:39am, 3:1, CC
After months from the game, Chris returns with a CC final victory over Deano, ensuring that his 3-way dominance (victories in WC, EC and IC finals) over the other "Big 4" players is nearly complete. Just one more to go...
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Matthew Mills, 16/05/2003, 8:45am, 3:1, EC
It is complete. Once again, Matt forfeits with the expected outcome of 3:1. Ironically, Chris was widely criticised for playing lesser players after his initial dominance over Matt, Deano and Willie. With recent commanding displays over his old rivals, Chris vows to give title shots once again to more unfancied players.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 16/05/2003, 9:15am, 4:0, WC, EC, IC
Chris' response after being challenged for all 3 belts - again - by Chung, "whatever". Once again, an almost impossible 100% scoreline. What is wrong with you Willie? You are a mathlete for crying out loud! You remember pi to 50 places! You represented our state in the Mathematics Olympiad! Sheesh!
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. Sohail Asghar, 21/05/2003, 11:07am, 4:0, WC
Chris thrashes the Muslim world's no. 1. This is getting a bit ridiculous...

Christopher Lancaster d. Thuy Ngo and Mai Nguyen, 21/05/2003, 11:16am, 3:1, WC
In a special handicap and intergender match up, Chris crushes "the Tweetybird" and shows that D&D really is a man's game...
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 24/06/2003, 10:14am, 3:1, WC
blah blah blah
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 16/09/2003, 11:15am, 26:10, WC
blah blah blah-blah, blah blah blah
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 16/09/2003, 11:18am, 4:0, WC
Come on Willie! What the heck?!?!
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 16/09/2003, 11:20am, 1:0, WC
hehe. Try it yourself, a 1-box game will always go to the second player.
-------
Christopher Lancaster d. William Chung, 16/09/2003, 11:23am, 9:0, WC
This is even more impossible... This sux.
The Middle of the End
Over-expansion and the failure of any competitors to wrestle a title away from the champ has resulted in the decision to combine all official titles to just one, the World Championship.
Everyone, even Lancaster, wants another epic with Matthew. The biggest, baddest game of D&D EVER. Will Matt be able to take the title from the champ who has held it for 1.5 years, re-ignite the great Chris-Matty rivalry, and save the sport? Will he be able to stop the virus from spreading through the Matrix? Will he save the Rebels from the evil Emperor? Will he be able to recover from the trauma that is Tibor's jokes? Will this useless page ever end?
Sadly, no. The much-hyped rematch was a dodgy, Chris-rigged, 1-box game with Chris the second player. D&D died on that day.
Just kidding.
The big rematch was actually the best D&D game we ever had, with a massive 11dot-by-11dot grid (100 squares).
