group0 - test game!

score:
Merlin_89:  88 points  -  kettlefish:  78 points
--------------------------------------------
I've played a test game with Merlin_89

Here I will show you the screenshot of this strange game.
The cloisters came late into the game at the last 30 tiles.
We both had all our meeples on roads and cities and each had a farmer.
So we had no choice to put a meeple as a monk on a cloister.
---------------------------------------------
During the tournament - after each game you need to make a screenshot before you close the JCloisterZone programm.
I use the printscreen and then put this into "paint" for some modifications.

After the game the participants talk a bit in the chatroom. We regular inform the others about the score and who won the game and then post the screenshot here at CarcC.
--------------------------------
Attention - this is only an example  - test game kettle vs Merlin_89

After some tricky manipulations with his router, Merlin_89 from now on can also host a game ;)

Has anyone managed to schedule a game yet?

No nothing arranged as yet. I had a quick look in the chat room earlier tonight, but wasn't anyone from Group 2, so I let Piklach have his laptop back so he could host a friendly game or two. I should be able to get online tomorrow night, so hopefully they'll be someone around from my group for a game. Failing that, I'll send a few messages out to try and schedule something for next week.

I definitely agree!

Picklach, welcome to the forums! There will be another tournament soon, so stay tuned.

@ Kettlefish: Well, no wonder that you didn't have any follower left for cloisters if you had already put that many followers in that big city. :D

Glad I was able to help. More people will be able to host - more games will be played! :D

Welcome Tournament - group1

Well done both - it sounds like it must have been a battle for farms!

In fact, Decar, it was not.  ;D Merlin managed to catch 5 of my followers quite in the beginning of the game. And then JCZ didn't react properly and placed a farmer, that I didn't want to place (we gues it was the bad internet connection I had) . So I had to play the rest of the game with only one follower, that was cought by Merlin in the last third of the game. Thus, I couldn't do a lot, except of enlarging that city and that road, that were impossible to close.

Today I learned a lot. Thank you for the game, Merlin! I did never ever experience a game that was so dominated by caught meeples.  ;D

Hiya. Just to let you know, I'm currently online in the chat room. I'm available to play a game for a bit should someone in group 2 be around (or for that matter anyone if it's just a friendly non-tournament game).

@Safari - well all things considered not a terrible defeat then!  You do have to be careful double clicking with JCZ, maybe if there way some delay when you placed the tile your second click got misread.

Sometime I think a confirm move would be helpful to turn on so you don't make as many mistakes!

@Rich - good luck; hopefully someone will see you!
