Tool's Fool's (Mosehansen game)

Keeping in mind that I don't know what I am doing...

With Arco and the whole dominion scrying deal, I tend to make my starting scout a prophet. There are pros and cons to this but mostly it comes down to that I tend to value the fast start (via dominion scrying spread by scout) more than having a level 4, instead of level 3, priest. Especially, with Arco, I tend to have enough priestesses around that having Fanaticism, instead of sermon of blessing, isn't as important as having a stealthy dominion spreader (who will, admittedly, get caught one day

)

With C'tis(Miasma), my other favorite nation, I make an empoisoner (mage-assassin) my prophet on turn 4 so I can start laying claim to (and weakening) provinces ahead of time.

The only other nation I have really played is BF Ulm where I may wait until turn 10+ to get a Vampire Count and make him Prophet.

Well that was an interesting deathmatch.
First time I've seen two participants kill each other in the same round!

I'm glad to say it looks like we have a very active group of players. We're getting about 3 turns/day, which is nice.

yeah, that was amusing.

just saved you the trouble of having to kill the winner, though.

From the Posts below, here's what I think to be the participants and their nations:

Arcoscephale (Kel)
Caelum (Catquiet)
C'tis (djtool)
Ermor (z0dd)
Jotunheim (quantum_mechani)
Machaka (Cainehill)
Marignon (Spainpain)
Pangaea (Breschau)
Pythium (archaeolept)
T'ien Chi (computer)
Ulm (Ady)
Vanheim (?)

Can someone help with the unknowns? One of these is AI, correct?

Updated. Thanks.

And yes, I'm the "evil" Ermor. I apologize in advance for any unaccepted deeds I'm forced to execute for my master's will.

What's "(POD S8 D10)" ?
