The Darts scheme is a wormy adaptation of the popular real-life Darts game.
In this adaptation, players have to launch their worms to the scoreboard, they do this by enabling Low Gravity, then using the Ninja Rope to build momentum with the help of an object specifically drawn for that purpose (a wall or a dot, for example), and finally a Pneumatic Drill to actually fly to the scoreboard. Certain maps may require pressing the Space bar in order to stop the drilling so the worm won't be prevented from landing.
History
The scheme has been invented by SiD in 2011, with a first map posted on WMDB on July 15th.
A dedicated community, dS (Darts n Stuff), was then created a year later by Alien and Komito. Currently, Hurz Triad and spleen17 are Co-Leaders. The scheme became notorious after all the promotion effort made by this community: various Darts-related events are hosted on a regular basis on TUS (which even features Darts as a Free league scheme) and WO.
