1st Annual Languish Twilight Struggle Tournament

[Tamas]

I see no other way, although I don't think one week is enough with the time zone differences. I have posted my invites

[bogh]

We will see how we go, but otherwise I am sure we can gentlemanly agree on solution? I dont mind going into the looser pile if required.

Well, I think the "1 week" part is not carved in stone. If we need to take a couple days to wrap up a game that is fine, but lets TRY t move it along quickly.

My game with bogh is on, number 171835. I am the US, for the first time in like a year, so it won't end well.

Absolutely - though my weirdo timezone doesn't help.

I'll move back to Europe in a couple of months...so it will be better then!

Does anybody here know who critmass is on the TS server?

You play with other people, Nels?

I'm hurt.

[Nels]

But I only play Socialist Governments every turn against you. It's a smothering sort of relationship.

My US beat bogh's USSR by VP on T7.

It was a crazy game.  I don't remember all the details right now, but by T3 I was at ~15 VPs but due to some unfortunate cards, luck and play by me bogh had Control of Europe.  Thankfully the Europe scoring card didn't come up and I was able to finally get enough VPs to win before it did.

gg bogh

[bogh]

Yeah, good game. I was pretty sure that one was in the bag, but the points keep trickling in for you...

[mkiefte]

You guys almost done?

I can only speak of my game against Tamas but we are on AR4 of Turn 2.  On days I can/remember to make a play at 4AM before work we can play 2 cards each in 24 hours; that doesn't happen every day.  Our weekends don't seem to line up very well either.

Again I can't speak for Tamas' match against bogh, but Tamas and my match is likely going to last for weeks.  I understand that this is sub-optimal and I am open to any sort of solution that might speed things up.

Just to be clear I don't mean to be critical or judgmental of anyone, but I am drunk and sometimes it just slips out (that's what she said?).

[Berkut]

Where is Tamas-bogh?

[Tamas]

End of Turn 6 IIRC. I have had him on the ropes twice but he has managed powerful recoveries.

I am replying to moves within minutes whenever I am able to. Will try to be more responsive during weekends, those were my slow times, oddly.

[bogh]

I would be surprised if the game goes on for to much longer - eventually Tamas will be able to push me over the edge...
