In the Spirit of March Madness!




Want another way to procrastinate when you have important things to do? Great, here you go!

Recently a friend sent me a link to an online flash basketball game that is a wonderful way to procrastinate or piss away your day. The game is very simple, but addicting as hell. You can play online with a community that seems to fluctuate from 300-650 during different parts of the day, or create your own mini groups to play your friends.

The game is played by simply clicking the trajectory of the basketball, and hoping that it goes in. "Clean" baskets (no rim or back board) add a multiplier that are crucial to high scores. Each round lasts about 2:00 minutes, and there is about 30 seconds in between rounds.

Also, after each shot the player is shown a bell curve of sorts that illustrates where you are currently ranked in relation to the other players. The more you make, the better your ranking and your little bar will move further to the right. Start bricking? Well, the opposite is true.

So bookmark this game, because it is awesome.

Quick final note- Sometimes you need to create a profile (very simple) and choose "Global" in order to play online. Be patient, occasionally it can take 2 or so minutes for the next game to start.
