Well, that's easy when you suck but somehow manage to beat one of the top rated players. Even a blind squirell finds a nut now and then.
You don't give yourself credit. You may have had a bit of an advantage in the map but you played it absolutely right! Got me boxed in in 14 turns. So, it was a rightly earned victory.

Just a note...it's not cushy . (Of course, the primitive hoards don't really care about cushy, do they ).

Thanks for the compliment (the art, that is). I was hoping for some superficial compliments on my buttons so feel free to lay it on... .

Not your eyes .

Thought I'd hi-lite the people who are currently at or above the initial starting point of 1,000. Also, the person who has completed the most games.

Well, give the game a shot, guys. May have made a mistake but it will show up the first turn if I did. Sorry for the delay. Found out the Tesco map I had had some ruins on it so I had to get rid of all of them.

If it doesn't run, I'll try again tomorrow evening. Good luck!

I'd be keen for more multiplayer action. What about a 6 player 24 hour game? (all other settings to be argued.)

Slynky, can we rate 6 player games - I lost interest in the discussion on multiplayer Ratings when maths got involved....?

There should not be any problems in a game with 6 players. We have a few "fours" now. Just remember the point gain/loss is a bit greater in one of those.

I should dig in the thread and see what it appears we decided upon when the discussion went "dry".

Yes, something is awry with the game. When I completed turn one, it created a file named
chalgvb.gam_0001.plr

The correct file name should be:
chalgvb_0001.plr

I think you are going to have to do a restart. Thanks again for hosting.
