And by a fairly convincing margin too! I imagine that this is why he refused to lose any subsequent games and went on to win the whole competition.

Anyway...



All prizes are free (including postage) as a thank you for taking part. Everything is worth owning, but please remember that this wasn't an officially funded competition and as such I'm paying for all the prizes and postage out of my own pocket. I'm perfectly happy to do this, but please bear this in mind if you're expecting to have won cars or holidays.

So if you're on the list above and would like to receive your prizes, please drop me a PM including your postal address (unless I already have it: MrNumbers, Carcking, jungleboy, quevy, Rosco, rfielder). I can't guarantee when you will receive them as I am still waiting on a couple of things (yes, seriously) but these won't affect everyone.

Stay tuned for news of the next competition. Coming soon...  8)

Speaking only for myself - a small fee for admission to the next competition, to help offset the cost of prizes, would seem appropriate.

Assuming you are willing to every do this again!   :)

FYI, Monwil has the same address as I.


Congratulations Carcking!

Looks like the game was close.....

Prizes are now in the post! Sorry for such a huge delay but there were a few things I had to wait for and then I basically just wasn't organised enough to get everything together and post it.

It's done now though, thanks so much for taking part!  :) :(y)

Package arrived today.  Very much appreciated by both Monica and I.  Thank you!

One question - what are trade tokens?  Which expansion uses them?

These are trade goods for "Traders & Builders", just to replace paper tokens.
