You can see which are the multiplayer games (fairly easily) on the site. But one hasn't been rated. The method for doing it is buried deep in this thread somewhere ( ).

Anklbiters is another one but it's slow. Deccan is (I think) busy in real life and Slick (Last I heard) was busy as heck. Then there is the challenge game Geo set up...I think there are 4 rated players in there.

I really wish more people would join. Perhaps they feel being rated puts a kind of pressure on them that takes away from the fun. But I like both. There are several good players out there who should get in and start showing their proper rating, IMHO. The biggest puzzle of all is Stone Mill ( ). (not to put pressure on the "King" ).

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.

Thank you, your Slynkness. Good Gecko, Bad Gecko. I'm the guy with the Seeking Parasite...

Gecko

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!
