Truly, I am an idiot.

First, I want to thank Gecko for the game. He was the fastest opponent I've played against. Sometimes we'd get 6 - 8 turns done in a day. Games are much more interesting when they move along. Second, Gecko's not an idiot. He played well. Fortunately for me he gambled on an approach that didn't pan out this time. It could just as well have gone the other way. A couple of games ago Asmala hammered me in 36 or so turns because I gambled on something that didn't work out either. The bottom line is that sometimes gambles pay off and other times they don't. But it doesn't make us idiots for trying.

Good game, Gecko.

Thanks Lord Chane. Guess I prefer thinking and playing...
"outside the box".
