Asmala, please move Slynky up a level and me back to the bottom.
Good game, Slynky! You deserved to win it and I deserved to lose blowing such an easy advantage there.

As it turned out, it wasn't such an easy advantage after all.
For anyone reading (grin), I started next to one of his home systems. I thought I was screwed from the beginning since all 5 of my starting homeworlds were in the same deadend system! Only one way out and it was to HIS home system. My luck turned out to be that his homeworlds were split in 3 systems and the system that had 3 homeworlds in it was the one farthest away. So, had he tried to block me in my starting system (no mines in this game), he couldn't have put enough ships together to do it. SO, it wasn't that great of a chance blown...it turns out I was able to block out his other 4 systems while I built up enough ships to take his isolated homeworld out.
Warlord Ragnarok gave it a good shot even after losing a homeworld. I salute his resolve!
