Round 3: MrNumbers vs. Rosco
« on: June 08, 2014, 11:47:52 AM »
Today we have long-waited match with Rosco. He was straight after his match with quevy and spontaneausly offered me to play.
Early in the first game I have started to build a big city (what I don't like to do, because it may end badly). And this happens to me: Rosco quickly connected 2 followers and cut all possibilities for me to connect another. All he has to do was to wait for a right tile (cccr). But that time we have started to fight for a farm below (later Rosco has connected up and down with a cloister with a road). Soon Rosco ran out of followers and I continued to gain points with small cities and connected another follower to the big farm. In the middle of the game I had 59 points, meanwhile Rosco had 17! But near the end of the game Rosco received a correct tile and finished the 36-point city! Still this wasn't enough: farm battle ended with 4-3 followers for me and 24 points for the farm.
Final score: 106-70.

In the second game Rosco quickly has placed a farmer and very soon for both of us became clear: who wins the farm - wins the game. Throughout the game we connected farmer by farmer to the big farm, I was lucky enough to trap one Rosco's farmer with only 3 points. After I connected 5th farmer while my opponent had 3, Rosco wrote me in chat "game over".
Final score: 113-74.
