[DukeSucks]

we have 19 tiles left. I'm sure we can finish it up tomorrow since we got a lot knocked out today, but if you want to stick to the schedule I'm ok with him advancing since my PMs caused us to start late (plus I think he's going to win anyway :lol )

 

[AstroLad]

no worries

 

[Beer Monkey]

3 tiles left, I might win but it's a nailbiter and a hell of a game.

 

[Ri'Orius]

congrats!

you guys close to finishing up?

Slacker and I aren't. We've played eight tiles between us over the last few days. If we ever get a chance to be on at the same time, we could maybe knock this out quickly, but considering our track record that seems unlikely (especially since I'm busy all day Friday and most of the day Thursday).

Had an awesomely close match with DukeSucks and Minsc yesterday.

End score was:
DukeSucks 70
JonnyRam 68
Minsc 63

DukeSucks rocked the cloisters, I rocked the farms, and Minsc rocked the cities. About half the points were allotted at the close of play.

 

[attractivetb]

Heeh didnt came in time for that tournament!

But on the otherside I won my first game lol:

[pilonv1]

Mainly in the NBA thread.

Stop making fun of my farms too

 

[Karud]

Stop making fun of my farms too

I didn't understand what you two were doing with all those farmers in the most recent game. ^^

 

[pilonv1]

I like to fight Jonny for farms, sometimes by placing 5 meeples down.

 

[Karud]

I see. :lol

ok might just knock you both out then since it doesn't seem like there's much of a reasonable expectation it gets done anytime soon

these are the current games on the menu, due Sunday:

19kilo
minsc

Grifter
?

joey
beermonkey/dukesucks

 

[Beer Monkey]

Beer Monkey 78
DukeSucks 73

Great game, dude.

 

[DukeSucks]

You too. That was the most intense game I've played.

I've also noticed that we've all become a lot more aggressive when it comes to fighting over fields and cities from when this thread started. Makes for some interesting games :lol

 

[AstroLad]

gaaaah it's been a long time since i had a color mix-up

nobody use green god damn it! there's like a couple other colors!

That's true! It was pretty silly to go balls out for them early in the game.

Actually, I've noticed everyone plays a bit better now.

I was actually going to make a post about that. I've noticed a lot more aggressiveness (myself included!) in our matches lately. I bet that our collective ELO has gone up significantly over the past month or so more than the average increase. Heh, if it was something that we wanted to track, we could make a Google docs spreadsheet and update our ELO on the same day every week (or month, or bi-weekly, etc.).

 

[Bioshocked]

So, how exactly do fields work when more than one person has a piece on the same field? How is it decided who gets the points?

 

[Jonnyram]

Same as anything else. The person with the most meeples on a contiguous piece of field, gets 3pts for every completed city that is in/around/touching that field. If there are two players with the same number of meeples, they both get the full points.

i booted you guys just yesterday! :lol you're out of the family!

czar we're still waiting on our game. time to get my bootin boots on again....

 

[Grifter]

gg, 5p mates! brian, you screwed yourself going for that city, bro!

 

[Jonnyram]

That was a tough game. First in a while where I haven't been red, so I kept confusing myself
Also, whattaheck at that joint city you two made together. Are you in cahoots or something?

 

[AirBrian]

GG, fellas. Yeah, I went for the city and got screwed. <insert Eeyore pic here>

It was definitely a more well-played 5-player match though!

Anyone get a screen grab?

 

[Slacker]

i booted you guys just yesterday! :lol you're out of the family!

czar we're still waiting on our game. time to get my bootin boots on again....

Then we play for HONOR! :lol

 

[Beer Monkey]

Beermonkey:88
Joeyjoejoeshabadoo:85

[Beer Monkey]

Good game, dude.

 

[AstroLad]

I'm usually purple, so I thought he was stealing my city when I was actually stealing his. I went all in.

 

[AstroLad]

[CzarTim]

Beer Monkey and I just started today. We're making progress though.
