Default GEO is BACK!

Let me see how I can phrase this:

"Slynky, dude, could you give me some practice (and if you feel benevelont, let me win?"

LOL....

Talking about getting your *** kicked! Well, Geo's doing one of those "martial art" things where he rips your heart out with a deft and skilled hand maneuver and then shows it to you while you are still alive.

To Geo: You have played a masterful game and I have few doubts that I shall prevail. Though it wasn't a rated game, I think it should be and I'll treat it as such. You REALLY earned it!

Methinks Geo is ready to make his own mark on the "HILL".

GOOD game, dude! I never mind losing to skilled play.

*Blush*

I got lucky. As usual it comes down to who manages to execute their plan first. This time I beat you to the punch by a couple turns.

It's been fun though. First time in a game I've ever really had the feel for how to use these warp openers.

LOL...not one warp opener. Or not, two. But FIVE!

Damned fine game, my friend!

PS: I don't think you need practice.

Welcome to the club Geo! If nothing else, you have comforted me in my own similar strategy, which impressively backfired against Primitive; but the problem was the execution here, and not the idea itself.

Perhaps I shouldn't have been so eager to get even with you. *Starts making a run for cover*

Actually, I only ever had 4, and only one of them had a level 2 opener, the other three were level 1. But I kept moving them around a lot and using them to open a series of warp points on the same turn, I'm suprised it didn't look like I had a dozen to you.

Yeah, I guess you are right. BUT, seeing the message, "warp point opened", so often, I got confused (and miscounted).

The only thing I got right in this game was that it would end within 20 turns of our discussion.
