ha! some weeks will definitely be like that. pretty much any time you feel your ELO soaring to new heights you are due for a week of constantly losses. finishing last in a couple 4p and 5p games in particular is not very nice to high ELOseznark said:This single game has cursed me. I'm now completely incompetent, unable to even beat my wife (well, at Carc, I still beat her of course). It's shattered my confidence. I'm a broken man.
Hurry the f' up so we can start a new tourney!!

hail to the king, indeed.
Just making sure you do know it's double elimination. You still have a chance!eznark said:This single game has cursed me. I'm now completely incompetent, unable to even beat my wife (well, at Carc, I still beat her of course). It's shattered my confidence. I'm a broken man.

That game was ridiculous! Definitely fun though.soldat7 said:We're only a few moves in.
Great game AstroLad and AirBrian! I hereby announce my retirement.
I was one tile away from complete elimination. On the last turn of the game, which was my turn, I literally got the tile I needed to complete that huge city and win the game. Hella lucky! GG, man! That was a crazy one!Flynn said:Grats to AirBrian in our loser's bracket match!
AirBrian 96

Was right at 1400, then the big plummet over the last couple of days. Good times!Bernbaum said:Fun times, as usual.
Pretty sure I'm a bit of a bottleneck for GAF games, being in Australia and all. Thanks for your patience!

This is the highest I've gotten my ELO to. In fact, I'm a smidge ahead of the people who introduced me to this game. There have been a few GAF games where I've come second or third but come away with a positive ELO result.AirBrian said:TRUTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONY. Let's go! You and soldat's game is the missing link!

Yep, basically waiting on soldat/attractiveb's game.eznark said:Is the tournament still going on?

AstroLad said:i wanna play a tournament game! :/
funny thing is i had two weeks off just now and i have to go back to work tomorrow so i won't be able to take nearly as many turns/day d'oh.
attractivetb said:Just finished...sorry for the delay, TRUTony 116, Soldat7 110.
Very good game...exciting! Came down to the last 3 tiles.

There's nothing wrong with the loser's bracket! ;-)Yaboosh said:Oh good, he has the second highest elo on my friends list, and even if I somehow win, I play Astrolad, who has the highest. Off to the losers bracket I go!

haha yup i think this is a carc ios rite of passage along with being freaked out/surprised by the "it's your turn" guyGaspode_T said:I made a pretty dumb mistake in one of my 5 player games going on right now - I keep getting blue color because not many people seem to have picked that one as their default, but one of my games I am red instead of blue. Anyway as I'm bleary eyed sweeping through games picking obvious moves I place down a tile thinking "yes!! score! Finish a road AND a citadel what an obvious choice!" ... and proceed to wake up like I've taken a sip of morning coffee as I see the points leader score zoom up even further instead of my own score Probably one of those things everyone does at some point or another
