“That was a very expensive tie.

The elven curse was back in action tonight and Excalibur was right on top of things to pick up the pieces (and then smash them into smaller peices). $0 in winnings and I lost a 60 or so SPP catcher. Bleah.

A riot came up right after I tied it up and advanced everything to the very last play of the game, the kick off. I should have just put 3 men on the line, but I had a clever idea to get myself out of the invetable bruising. I put my DW dead center and 2 men on the adjacent ocorners behind him, knowing full well that Ex's first action would be to pile onto him with his frenzying Mummy. He'd been trying it all game.

Well, it worked, and I lured him into the 1 die block, but to no avail. Not only did he get a pow on the 1 die, but got a MNG result to boot. Cognac was already out for the next and it was turn 8, so I apothed. Big mistake.

More bashing for those all important 2 SPPs, and eventually the blitz on Amaretto with the MB zombie. RIP. Sigh.

Thanks for the game, Ex.”
