Dev Kit Developers League Update #6
The battle continues as the developers regroup after the special Dev Kit tournament at Jet City Retro where PG's own Elder Taragan was crowned the champion. The competition gets interesting as many of the leagues hardcore attendees double the required 15 games needed for the tournament of champions in November and try to improve their margins to get there. Hit the jump for the updated scores from the latest gathering!
Everyone's Makin' Videogames. Why Not You?
Here are the updated results of Round 6 of the Dev Kit Developer's league. The point total is the product of your average score plus your average margin of victory/defeat multiplied by your winning percentage. So if you didn't win a game, your score is zero. But don't worry. Only your best 15 games count toward your final score, so there is plenty of time for everyone to rise to the top of the leaderboard. The more you play, the better your chances of qualifying for the tournament of champions in November.

After Elder Taragan swept the final table at Jet City Retro, taking home 1 of 10 ultra-rare uncut sheets of Dev Kit cards, some of the Dev Kit Developers League regulars were no doubt in search of a rematch! The league continues to grow as more and more developers come and try their skills and the league's hardcore players adapt to different styles. At Jet City Retro a new zone was discovered, but it required more research by the Elders before it could be made public! The newly discovered Steve Zone is where a player stumbles to the edge of the Joe Zone, just avoiding a near fatal fall into its abyss and manages to score 15 points or under in a great game of Dev Kit. The Steve Zone is much more frequent than the Joe Zone, but in league play can be just as bad for a players overall margin!
The absence of Dev Kit Celebrity, Joe Zone Joe, was a bit troublesome to the Elders as he may have fallen beyond the great reach of the Elders and may need more help than they can provide. Joe Zone Joe has been missing for the entire length of the PG Dev Kit Developers League so any information is still greatly needed more than ever on his whereabouts! Please contact the Elders with any info immediately, Joe’s fate rests in your hands! As the next meeting grows near, there are many questions to be answered; will Joe Zone Joe be found still alive after such a long absence? Who will fall into the grasp of the Steve Zone and have their margin suffer? The answers to these questions and more await the next Dev Kit Developers League meeting to be found out.

Comments
More research on the Steve Zone needs to be done. I would suggest that the Steve Zone is when you play an entire day of Dev Kit without winning a single match. I think Steve has accomplished this feet on at least three different occasions now.
This may go down as one of the greatest philisophical debates in modern history along with the likes of:
Less filling vs. tastes great.
Coke vs. Pepsi.
Cookie vs. cake.
"You got peanut butter in my chocolate" or "you got chocolate in my peanut butter."

As the first person into the Steve Zone let me say this: It's awesome here! It's also very close to the Joe Zone. I've been to the gate and looked through but I'm still too scared to enter.
