Sorry to break the streak but…

I ended up essentially having to throw the game to ensure 2nd place. Yellow had a huge amount of gold and the other players weren’t trying to block him at all. I returned his prisoner to jail letting him end the game 2 turns earlier, so ensuring the other players didn’t have time to grab another gem. Not something I would normally do, but by that point there was no way I could take first, so I played for second instead

all? but what about Henry?

Notice the horse chess piece icon below his portrait. It means he’s an AI player as well.

didn’t know that :thinking:
and did not pay attention to that small detail :roll_eyes:
thx for the enlightenment :expressionless:

Alright, Second Round has finished 2 days ago, but we have finally counted everything up and added it to THE SPREADSHEET OF AWESOME. So yeah, going great, guys! We will be sending out Round 3 matching later this week :slight_smile:

P.S. We have analyzed some things from the First Round data, and BY FAR the most important one is that the yellow guy won most often!

I feel like that’s more or less a given.

Sooo… which is better to pick up as a second scram game; 8 minute or steam? (Any in our decathalon?)

As much as I’d love to help, I think it’s against everything reasonable for me to pick one :F

Steam is a classic with more depth. 8ME is fun, but it can’t be called anything more than a filler. I have yet to play a game where it didn’t feel over too quickly. I prefer Steam but both are good.

Tough, great game! 4th player took first turn then resigned to AI took his place …
