“Not the prettiest of games; thanks to a bit of luck I was able to fend off the Amazons through the first half and some fortunate block results (etc) left me with such a significant advantage in bodies it was fairly easy to stall out for a 1-0 win.

(I get diced sometimes; you get diced; everyone gets diced occasionally. (To be honest, I don't think this was a particularly egregious example, but then I may be biased.) It is the nature of the game. When it happens, I do my very best to see the funny side and not complain about it or tell my opponent he's only winning because he's lucky. Doing these things just gives the whole game a sour atmosphere. There's no shame in losing simply because the dice were against you all game, that's not your fault. However, the way you react when it happens is, I would suggest, within your power to control. Here endeth the cornball lecture.)

Anyway, as often happens, the team has bounced back from a thumping with a win, of sorts; their form seems to be up and down with no real sign of a significant breakthrough or any consistency. Then again that's probably my fault, not theirs. ”
