The second game of the first round is over. This game was much faster than others so it looks like we have to wait some time.
Over already?!?! I'm in game 1 and I just met my first 2 empires about 8 turns ago. (The game is at turn 39) And everyone is very much alive and kicking.
Yeah, it's over . We were all pretty fast submitters so the game went fast, 99 turns before the game ended.

Ahh ok, 99 turns makes it sound better. For some reason I had it in my head that you played the same amount of turns as my game and were only at 39. (My brain doesn't work all the time.) I was trying to figure out how you could destroy 4 empires in only 40 turns or so. Now it makes more sense.

So I'm guessing you won?

It was pure luck. Thats my story and I'm sticking with it

No seriously. That was a real humiliating experience (for me at least).
Thinking I'm doing quite nicely, and then: BOOM !!! 10 - 15 turns and I'm dead. At least I learned something (hopefully).

Congrats to Asmala for a very well played game. Lucky me who won't have to face him again in round 2.

Congrat mucho, my young friend. Your reputation of skill is spreading quickly.

I am playing in the 2003 PBW Open Tournament, rd1gm7. I was just curious how the other games are going. We are up to turn 2410.3, one empire is dead, and the leading two empires’ alliance was sundered recently by large fleet actions in their mutual forward edge of the battle area. To my knowledge, the leading empires have been batting around the two remaining empires at will. The tech level is getting very advanced and each empire’s navy numbers in the hundreds. The real fight for supremacy has just begun…
