... and result is

fix: wagon issue (usually when playing against ai causing game freeze)
fix: wrong colors of chat nicknames

It sounds as though farin may have resolved this already, although I haven't seen it for myself...

Good to know. But maybe tonight isn't the best time for me after all, because I have a download limit and an unreliable connection here. Quevy, let's play when I get home.

It's fine when you come home.
There's no hurry.

Jungleboy when we play our game?

I'm anxious to know who is the winner of the tournament, When is the final? Finalists, I tell you

jungleboy · « **Reply #64 on:** October 13, 2014, 09:17:48 AM »

Can you play tonight? I could play at 21:00 or 22:00 CET, but we need a host. Dan?!

danisthirty · « **Reply #65 on:** October 13, 2014, 09:28:36 AM »

Yes no problem, I can host for you both. Just let me know what time and I’ll ensure it’s ready and waiting for you!

I haven’t heard from MrNumbers or Carcking yet regarding their final. In this case I think it’s usual that the last quarter-finalist to be eliminated becomes the overall champion. I can’t think who this was, but they should definitely definitely be the winner...

I can not tonight, tomorrow would be fine?

Edit:
Tonight I can play. We meet in the chat?

jungleboy · « **Reply #67 on:** October 13, 2014, 10:12:07 AM »

Great! What time?

quevy · « **Reply #68 on:** October 13, 2014, 10:12:51 AM »

21:30

jungleboy · « **Reply #69 on:** October 13, 2014, 10:15:10 AM »

OK, see you then. That's 20:30 for you Dan - is that OK?

danisthirty · « **Reply #70 on:** October 13, 2014, 10:37:14 AM »

Yes that should be fine.

I'll set the game up now and drop you both an email with the connection details. I think it makes sense that the format of this game should be the same as the main final. I'll look up what the expansions should be as it's been so long now that I can't remember what they should be!

Best of luck to both of you!

EDIT: Expansions are: River 1 + 2, I & C, T & B, A & M, The Phantom. quevy starts (score differential of 114 vs 78).

quevy and jungleboy - have fun in the game - good luck to you both...

Hello.

This is a short video extract from the match: jungleboy vs quevy:

(pretty poor quality - sorry)

The action is all in the top-right corner. Red (quevy) places a road that joins a farmer of his onto a farm containing a barn belonging to Green (jungleboy). He places the pig at the same time, and claims a 2-point road with his phantom. The farm is serving 12 cities, so it seems that this should get him a total of 2 x 12 = 24 points for the farmer + 2 points for the road. However, he gets just 2 points as the 24 points go to his opponent!

Am I missing something or does this not make sense at all?

jungleboy · « **Reply #73 on:** October 13, 2014, 10:23:24 PM »

His tile placement also joined my double meeple farmer (on the cloister tile above) to both his farm and the barn farm. That's why I had placed a road tile directly above the tile he played, to set up this move.
