Played my final match tonight. The scores were...

Rich_The_Fish : 259  :green-meeple:
BabyGamer     : 104  :red-meeple:

To be honest, I was rather fortunate and lucked in with a few good tiles which allowed me to finish the mega city that BabyGamer kept expanding in an effort to stop me from finishing it. It was also rather late and we'd both lost all of our other games earlier tonight so we probably tried some rather unorthodox strategies in an attempt to turn things around. Cheers for the game, and good luck in your last game against Paul.

Just 2 games left in our group - let's hope we get them finished quickly and win the prize for first to finish round 1.

Finished all my 4 games as well.  3 wins, 1 loss.  Won't be enough for 1st place due to enormous point differences acheived by other players of the group! Good job guys.

Thanks Kettle!!

Just one small comment, and please no need to redo the post: i think normally when a player has completed all his/her games the total points are highlighted in yellow. I like this because you can easily see who's done.

Alohaa! :)

Today, I'm going to Humppila (another city) and I think I might not be able to play... OR... They do have laptops.. so.. MAYBE I could play with Paul this evening.. :) It all depends on their lappys. =^_^=

Tomorrow, Sunday, I can't stay up late.. Not even semi late.. Because I got important meeting at Monday morning and I can't be all poofy under eyes and messy hair..  :( Need my beauty sleep..  ^-^

Soooo.. Lets see if tonight/evening is OK? :) Or then tomorrow when I'm home? Dunno what time that would be.. Evening... Finnish time.. :)

Monday.... Have to see.. evening then also, but not late, or semi late. :)

Paul 102 vs khalidq 228

My chances of winning pretty much went out the window mid-early in the game when khalidq won the big city all by himself. With King tile I couldn't win the game even if I hacked it and took over his round. Sucks.

Paul 102 vs khalidq 228

My chances of winning pretty much went out the window mid-early in the game when khalidq won the big city all by himself. With King tile I couldn't win the game even if I hacked it and took over his round. Sucks.

It was a fast start.  Paul attacked a single man / single tile city quite early which turned into the big city and had 4 men each on it by about tile 30.  I then vacillated between cutting my losses and separating a man (bottom left of the big city) and attacking again.  I found a way to close the city off from further attack with more of my men on it (5 vs 4 I think).  I was needing cccf and cccc but it was early in the game still, there were plenty of pieces left, I thought my chances of finishing it were high and given that it only cost me 1 man relative to Paul and that our points were roughly the same, it felt like a good bet.

But I must say, I have never ever played a game like it!

Khalid finishes in 1st place in group G.

Congrats!!!

Looks like I will qualify myself for the knock-out phase... But need to wait for the results of the last game to be 100% sure. We've seen very impressive score differences so far in this tournament...

Paul 167 vs BabyGamer 98

Crazy farm battle and I was so close to have won the entire farm, scoring more than 130 points difference to advance and it all came down to the last four tiles:

I needed a single straight road, a rfrf tile. 2 of them left in the pile of 4 tiles. All I needed was ONE and last two turns for BabyGamer she got both of them!!!
