I'm sure between Kije and I we've missed something. Sprig, EUOL, Kije, Morag, Fell, Prometheus, and I were all there, so I'm sure there's more to be said.

Spill it guys. The rest of you can laugh and mock us. I'm sure that's what Tage and his date wanted to do when they showed up.

Well, what do you know? Can you believe this whole post is made up of questions?

Gemm0987: But yes, SE had said somewhere on the forum that you brought a date with you to the TWG event.
BenROlsen: I can't recall if it was a date or if we were just hanging out
BenROlsen: either way, she's a lot cuter than a bunch of nerds
BenROlsen: and better smelling

I think that about sums it up.

Post by: The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers on July 07, 2004, 08:03:44 PM: yes. I ahve to freely admit. Most anyone with female genitalia is cuter than me. Possibly also many without them.

Post by: Spriggan on July 09, 2004, 03:37:00 PM: well in a standard tourny that's not a big deal since there's only two people playing. But in a big bruser battle like this then ya it sucks. The way we probaly should have done it was to keep track of who did the most clix of damage (which still would have been EUOL).

Also I'll be writeing a pt. 2 to this which is more my thoughts on the actualy team setup and stragetys.

Post by: Fellfrosch on July 09, 2004, 08:51:53 PM: Yeah, the points system doesn't translate as well to multiplayer. There are several scenarios we could play that have alternate victory conditions, and of course we could create our own, but that takes work so I didn't bother with it last time.
