Grand Prix Round 4 - Hacienda

pence

Awesome, I just got the automated e-mail response and I was worried it had kicked the game off for me. Game 1 is a go

I took my turn. I think you can spectate the game at the following link, even if you don't have an account:

Also, there's a log:

So I believe that more than ample time has been allowed to join game two. So unless there are any objections I will start it tomorrow evening.

And after taking the time to read the rules, I finally took my turn last night.

Coldguy

I just got the email, let me get out of work and I will do my turn.

Birdville

Game 2 is a go.

Apreche

Are you guys still playing?

Coldguy

Are you guys still playing?

Yes I did turn 2

Scott, you can easily check by looking at the links I posted above:

You don't even need to log in to see the game's progress.

At this rate it will take a pretty long time, though.

Apreche

Yellow, rocking the sheep. Black going for the big connection!

Birdville

Game two is stalled waiting on YoshoKatana's first turn.

lackofcheese

My game is starting to get more interesting.

pence

Yeah, you took the spot I was going to take last turn! Fortunately I happened to turn over two pampas cards in a row just now, which I won't complain about.

lackofcheese

Lucky bastard, you already have two pampas down on the map and you just got two more!?

YoshoKatana

Ack! I didn't get any notification that the game had either started or was waiting on me. I'll take my turn tomorrow morning.

lackofcheese

Now things are starting to get aggressive in this game.

Linkigi(Link-ee-jee)

People gotta move before they get edged out of the corners of the board.

Luke Burrage

On my last turn I accidentally bought a card, and that's the one thing you can't undo. It has probably fucked my chances of doing well thus game.

However, I'm really enjoying the Hacienda by mail experience, so if anyone wants to keep playing after the Grand Prix is over, I'd be up for it!

Luke Burrage

Fuuuuuuck, I just accidentally bought a card AGAIN!

Birdville

Still no movement in game two. If nothing happens we may have to create a new game without YoshoKatana so we might actually play.

Birdville

As I seem to be the only one who cares about game two that means I win right?

Starfox

Whoa whoa whoa champ. Just waiting for my turn.

lackofcheese

Well, midgame scoring happens this round:

Abusing my pampas privileges to scoop up 7 (14) more points under the wire.

Birdville

Whoa whoa whoa champ. Just waiting for my turn.

Shall the rest of us make a new game and exclude YoshoKatana since he is a dick who won' take his first turn?

YoshoKatana

Hey, really sorry about this. I can't figure out any way to leave a game that's already in progress, so please feel free to make a new game without me. It's crunch time at work so I don't really have time for gaming.

Birdville

Let's try this again then.

lackofcheese

You should all block pence more; that pampas has given him a significant advantage.

Luke Burrage

Damnit. Another stupid, stupid mistake! This one might cost me about 10 points.

Birdville

I will start game two tonight with or with out the remaining roster.
