2008-07-10 21:11:35 - Greycloak: Mr. Yellow: If you decide you want to waste my 6 boat units in a futile attempt to hold a territory, know this:
2008-07-10 21:12:15 - Greycloak: It'll never happen. I have Maryland, can and will eat your flank at will if you end my chances in this game.
2008-07-10 21:12:44 - Greycloak: If you play nice, we can block for each other to mutual benefit. :-)
2008-07-10 21:50:16 - -Maximus-: is that a nice way to say a threat or what :p
2008-07-10 21:50:32 - -Maximus-: dont know if you saw my drop or not there pink
2008-07-10 21:50:53 - -Maximus-: i kind of have to set at the ships
2008-07-10 21:54:15 - -Maximus-: not all of us are fortunate to start with the capitals...lol
2008-07-12 06:52:45 - Greycloak: Let me repeat. We will both lose if you go for the ships. We both have a chance if you do not. Cards are much more important than bonuses you will never hold in an Escalating game.
2008-07-12 06:55:10 - Greycloak: It's much better to ride it out with me blocking you from Louisiana and you blocking me in Monitor. I will not allow you to eliminate 6 of my units and profit from it and if that means scuttling both our games, which it will, I'm fine with that.
2008-07-12 06:56:26 - Greycloak: Call it a threat or a piece of friendly advice from one who has many many elite escalating games under his belt.
2008-07-12 06:57:45 - Greycloak: Do the smart thing: take a card in Dakota and keep your powder dry for the real battle which comes when the cards are at 20 or 25
2008-07-12 06:58:41 - Greycloak: We could even trade Galena for cards after my turn while the others reduce themselves killing 3's.
2008-07-12 07:00:53 - Greycloak: I was arguably unlucky with my drop because I'd probably rather trade the anonymity that comes of not having a bonus for the death spiral you and I are in now.
2008-07-12 07:04:27 - Greycloak: Do what you will, as it is a game after all, but if you attack me there this is how it shakes out: You attack, I break you with 10 units from Maryland starting in any of the 4 borders you have to defend, I move in, or not, and fort the other 5 to my stack
2008-07-12 16:31:36 - autogreg: Is this a training session?
2008-07-12 16:31:56 - autogreg: Don't see any cooks in here
2008-07-12 18:11:27 - Greycloak: Nor am I a chef.
2008-07-12 18:11:40 - Greycloak: Despite the fancy hat :-)
2008-07-12 21:26:12 - hwhrhett: cant we keep the lectures for those that need it in public games. private games are the game of gentlemen. now lets play.
2008-07-12 21:59:10 - Greycloak: That sounded distinctly lecturish, Blue. I was merely using a little diplomacy, which is my right.
2008-07-13 01:42:12 - -Maximus-: well, 400 points in 5 hours, at that rate i will be cook before the game is over
2008-07-13 20:41:21 - autogreg: yeah I am spewing points myself......
2008-07-17 19:45:57 - autogreg: If you guys would take your turn reeeeaaaaalll ssssslllllooooowww I would appreciate it. I will be at the lake until monday and not able to play. I have an account sitter, but would rather not use him anymore than I have to.
2008-07-17 21:45:28 - -Maximus-: no prob
2008-07-20 18:11:26 - -Maximus-: GG
2008-07-21 17:39:44 - OOGA BOOGA: gg everyone
