CDBRP
Darts on the continent is a fiercely competitive game. The rules confuse the hell out of most newcomers, but it’s quick to learn and horribly addictive once the first “Shang” is achieved.
It’s also a game built on trust and fierce station rivalries, culminating in a mid-winter interstation competition to crown overall bragging rights — not just for darts, but for everything. Gone are the days of cheating over the HF radio. We livestream every throw, call out every foot fault, and celebrate and carry on after every win.
But the cameras don’t capture everything…
2025 we had the controversy of Stay being “hidden” in the Macca tussocks.
2026, well, it’s a scandal that could erase history and tarnish legacies. Think cricketers and Sandpaper gate.
What if a certain station — who brag way too much about being the best — has their dartboard 5 cm closer than it should be? What if they conveniently measured from the wall instead of the board’s front face?
Do all the recent titles and bragging rights count? Does a Shang even count? That’s not up to me; I’m just lighting the match and running.
It’s why I’m today announcing the CDBRP (Casey Darts Board Remediation Project).
We’ve got bugger all funding and zero consultants, so it should be a quick project: move the throw line back and forever deal with the carpet colour not being correct as a reminder of the travesty.
Regards,
Sticks
