Scores in the jma03 vs Jere games were 111 to 100 in jma03's favour. Sorry, but I didn't think to take screenshots...

I also played jma03 this evening and it was a tough game!





I think jma and I were fairly evenly matched but I took more chances than he did with cloisters and made more of an effort to trap his meeples; 3 of which were stuck from very early on in the game. What made the big difference for me was a big city that I won 2 knights against 1 after drawing both of the tiles I needed even though there was only one of each left. I also drew the remaining cloister (fffr) which helped me to steal the top farm worth 12 points with my large follower.

Sorry we couldn't play our game Jere. I am tired and wouldn't be able to focus on another game now. Plus I know you are a strong player so I want to make sure I can give you my best!

Their game crashed when they played previously but Jere saved it and emailed the file to me so I could load it and host for them. This worked, and meant that I watched the last half of their game. They both had the same score and just their double-meeple left  at the restart which made me think there was a problem with the savegame file but then I saw that they were both playing exactly the same tactics and had meeples trapped by each other all over the board!

What made the biggest difference (in my opinion) was that there was only one cfrr tile left. If Jere had drawn it he could have won 20 points for himself (a small city and a medium-road with inn) plus got two meeples back. But jma drew it and so used it elsewhere. I think the outcome could have been very different if the luck had gone the other way.

Also, I think it's fair to point out that Jere was very sporting in his game as jma made a mistake with his first tile of the game after the reload (placing his only remaining meeple on the wrong part of a tile) but Jere was willing to offer that they restart it again even though the tile he drew after this was useful for him.

this game was something strange and foremost to thank Jere for fair play , so I jere a merit.
 to give thanks to for hosting the game.
as has been well explained dan, the game was very even where all were locked meeples.

When you lose, do not look at what you lost, but what's left to win ..

Try to reduce it with any graphical software. For example, you can use XnView (http://xnview.com). It's free for non-commercial use.

XnView also has Spanish translation, by the way :)
