I'm volunteering as a scorekeeper at the 2005 Canadian Ultimate Championships. I did three games today, and will do three tomorrow.
The third game was a great match between two women's teams: Cream, from Edmonton and Roughriders, from Vancouver. Cream was up at the half, 8-5, although they had been down 4-2 early on.
Cream was still ahead 8-7 when the time cap horn sounded, which means the game will end at the highest current score plus two after the current play is finished (each play ends with a score).
Roughriders scored to make it 8-8, so the game would end when one of the teams got to 10. Roughriders then scored again to take the lead. Cream then drew level at 9. The next point would win the game. And it was scored by Roughriders.
It was a great match, but the day was a bit of a drag: cool and damp. But at the end, as I was going to my car to head home there was a perfect rainbow across the eastern sky.

I tried that Frisbee game once. Didn't get into it, which was too bad.
I remember this girl kept calling Ron for "Picking", but she obviously didn't know what that meant, and kept bringing play to a halt for no legal reason.
