Re: It\'s time for a new Tournament...Ratings Bash I
The first round games did not produce any real dark horse winners so far.  Hopefully Round two will be more interesting in regards to upset wins.

Re: It\'s time for a new Tournament...Ratings Bash I
Who knows Gecko? Asmala might lose if the Heart of Gold is involved. And even then, it would still be quite an unlikely event.
Georgig, it seems like we will play together next round. Do you have some preference for the settings? Hopefully my luck will come back in this game.  |

If you know Alneyan at all, your Geckness, he speaks that way sometimes...it's a habit. (he's with the CIA if you didn't know).

Re: It\'s time for a new Tournament...Ratings Bash I
Sssh Slynky, that is supposed to be a secret. And some might figure out I am actually working for more than one organization once they are aware I work for Intelligence gathering agencies. No, I didn't give myself away, it was merely... erh... well, a random eventuality.
The fabled Heart of Gold is, in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Douglas Adams) a device able to generate *very* unlikely events and as such is often called the "improbability drive". This device would be needed to defeat Asmala, therefore creating a surprise victory in the first round. And even this device might not be enough. And yet again I am raving.

It is reverse psychology. Saying it makes it so obviously unbelievable. (or does it?)

Then I won't venture far from the "KOTH Trail":
All KOTH settings except 1 GOOD planet instead of a medium.
