I've gotta say folks, I'm pretty surprised at you all. I would never count and I'm surprised that you all do. Keeping a timer does not stop counting it just makes it
harder. Maybe we can require the use of a
webcam in league matches so that we can observe the lip movements of a silent counter or see the hurried note taking after each tile is drawn. Counting is just not in the spirit of the game and it gives better players an
unfair advantage. Ultimately, you're only
hurting yourselves you know. Even though I have been publicly accused of counting in the past, I know for sure that I have been and always will be playing fair. I guess it explains why so many of you hide behind
pseudonyms.
I herby start the campaign today to fix our broken sport. The campaign name will be
Clean Carcassonne and I pledge to clean up this place. We can prepare an
amnesty arrangement for those of you who are willing to admit your wrong and seek forgiveness from your community. Sign up today to have your soul
cleansed and look forward to a life free from Carcassonne stress and worries. And if you are in the first 100 people to join my movement, I will offer, for you to use at your own risk, a personalised invisible halo, with your name
flashing invisibly in a gold and purple aura around your head. In the same package, I will deliver to you an invisible strategy guide, including best meeple colour choice and how to improve your tile drawing luck to help you win in your new life. I know you can be strong like
me. Repent today for redemption tomorrow.
