2011-02-05 17:25:04 - b42cmc: Sorry, I missed another. I hope I don't get booted!
2011-02-06 18:07:30 - b42cmc: Crap, check the time stamps, I missed my turn by SECONDS!
2011-02-07 06:47:48 - KingBohica: Good thing it's not an escalating type game or you'd be in trouble. =]
2011-02-08 22:58:45 - b42cmc: Damn str8! I made my turn with a scant 19 hours left!
2011-04-01 20:46:50 - b42cmc: I guess that's it for B!
2011-04-09 18:36:35 - bobzimmerman: checker555 for bobzimmerman
2011-04-16 19:45:51 - bobzimmerman: OK, this is officially the most boring game I have played on CC. And we have all played some boring ones. The rich keep getting richer. How about an alliance of the weak (by that I mean less than 20 territs) against the strong (our two friends on top)?
2011-04-16 19:46:47 - bobzimmerman: No sitting back and letting others do the lifting. We each take out one blue or orange each turn or die trying. Who's in?
2011-04-24 17:27:25 - musicalmaven: i just read your post - you are right, but very often no spoils games go this route. all it takes is a couple of players who a) have a bad streak of luck with the dice (as i did) or b) get picked on early and get down to a territory or two.
2011-04-24 17:32:24 - musicalmaven: and then no one wants to expend the men to take the weak out - because there is no reward in it and you weaken your position. and now what do you do? there are 4 of us with 50 - 100 men sitting on 1 or 2 territories. who is going to take us out?
2011-04-24 17:50:56 - bobzimmerman: Good points, but the reality is that Blue and Orange are growing at 20 to 30 armies per turn while we add 3 to 5. It won't be long before stacks of 50 - 100 look like nothing to them.
2011-04-24 17:52:05 - bobzimmerman: It's probably already too late. And now blue is skipping turns. Nice.
2011-04-27 05:07:28 - musicalmaven: i was down to 1 or 2 territories early, but what can a weaken player do in this game? make a pact with another weakened player (or 2) and pick orange or blue to attack? what does that accomplish, except pick a player to win.
2011-04-27 05:12:00 - musicalmaven: i's rather do what we are doing, and to paraphrase what john housman used to say in the old smith barney commercials - "let them do it the old fashioned way - earn it".
2011-04-27 12:37:33 - Homewok: yeah, i think it would just be a crap shoot in the little guys trying to make a difference
2011-04-27 12:37:44 - Homewok: one of the big guys is going to have to gamble sooner or later
2011-05-04 10:48:18 - bobzimmerman: checker555 for bobzimmerman
2011-05-06 00:58:29 - b42cmc: GG Guys
2011-05-06 10:52:43 - bobzimmerman: checker for bob
2011-05-11 12:33:38 - bobzimmerman: Woo hoo! Made my big move of the game!
2011-05-17 22:10:29 - bobzimmerman: I really enjoy occasionally killing some armies. You guys should give it a try.
2011-05-21 18:03:25 - b42cmc: I'm makin a comback!!!!
2011-05-22 21:51:53 - bobzimmerman: I didn't mean kill my armies!
2011-05-27 11:22:46 - b42cmc: Well it's about time someone put me out of my misery! SMB, eh? GG!
2011-05-27 11:23:14 - b42cmc: Maven! GG!
2011-05-29 19:20:41 - musicalmaven: glad to do it red - 50+ rounds of this misery and who knows how much longer.
2011-06-03 11:46:33 - Kenbutsu: is orange paying you blue?
2011-06-04 19:54:18 - Homewok: orange's troop count is getting a little ridiculous
2011-06-05 04:11:39 - bobzimmerman: Too late to talk about it now. We could have made this a game 30 or 40 rounds back when I brought it up.
2011-06-05 04:12:45 - bobzimmerman: Now if we all ganged up on orange, he would still kick our butts. The most boring cc game I've played.
2011-06-05 12:11:39 - Homewok: This has been a bit of a snoozer
2011-06-07 11:32:37 - Homewok: orange, just end our misery!!!!
2011-06-09 22:39:16 - Kenbutsu: orange
2011-06-09 22:39:30 - Kenbutsu: you get 53 a turn, the rest of us combined get 35
2011-06-09 22:39:36 - Kenbutsu: i'm not a mathematician
2011-06-09 22:39:41 - Kenbutsu: but just attack and you will end the game
2011-06-11 04:06:52 - KingBohica: If I could see what sort of stacks you all had I would be happy to...
2011-06-12 14:20:03 - Homewok: i think you probably don't have anything to worry about
2011-06-12 21:27:26 - musicalmaven: all i see of you orange is the 1 terr. i can only speculate based upon what others are saying - but i am not the biggest stack amoung the weak players. so do what you have to, but do something.
2011-06-17 00:56:06 - Kenbutsu: homewok, i'm just attacking you with everything so that orange will end the game
2011-06-17 00:56:10 - Kenbutsu: i will act normally in future games
2011-06-17 00:56:46 - Kenbutsu: turns out my army doesn't entirely border you, so i'll attack bobzimmerman instead
2011-06-17 08:25:27 - KingBohica: Oh good, thank you! Not trying to drag the game out, believe me. But, even with my large bonus it does take some time to take down everyone who stacked all game =]
2011-06-18 11:03:50 - Homewok: i think we are all on the same page in trying to get this wrapped up
2011-06-18 15:43:36 - KingBohica: Sweet!
2011-06-19 16:54:23 - musicalmaven: ok orange - i'm yours. good game - too bad it all went to hell in a hand basket so quickly, but that happens very often in no spoils games.
2011-06-19 21:30:13 - KingBohica: for sure, well thanks for the help ending it!
2011-06-19 21:34:53 - KingBohica: Sorry, didn't see the guys in the city. gg all!
2011-06-20 03:20:23 - musicalmaven: nuts - we didn't make it to 70 rounds.
2011-06-20 08:46:19 - KingBohica: 69's better =]
