played 3 games at 11pm. first 2.5k was an easy start, all good rolls (51.3% luck!), and early 8stacking.

second game was 2.5k, tough start, kei was an ass, but i truced 1st (turtle power?), and he pwnd everyone for me. fiero obv lagged out in 5th, when he had 3rd wrapped up. this cued me to the fact that funneling might be going on. turtle power pwnd kei. DAD and i were left tiny, DAD had flagged 2nd. turtle power said he would lag out and give me 1st. i said hell no, and attacked out and made turtle come sit in again. DAD won a beautiful 8v8, and then took a territory of mine and i flagged. i didnt like the idea of funneling, esp after what happened yesterday.

third game was 10k, rowdy was nice to me (thx dude), and truced me early, then got raped by das. meagles decided to attack das, which ended up giving me the game.

in the end, max sat 2 tables at once, and woulda had a shot at winning it all, except he lagged out on a critical turn and lost his battle for 2nd at 2.5k. as time expired. whew!

at the beginning of the day, my only focus was to bat UpmaxM (he stole my 4th last month by 2tabling at midnight!!!). in the end of the day, i walked away victorious. gg max. sorry you were scared to sit with me, you weenie.

and fwiw, in my book voh and nuf share 1.5th this month. and i beat max for 3rd. max you get 4th.

...

but we'll see what happens tomorrow.

on the bizarreness scale, i say this ties january. similarities: 1) the top dude all month gets points taken away, 2) the top finisher at the end of month is not allowed to win because it is assumed he is biased, and 3) the unsung hero comes in to grab 1st in the end (Linch and UpmaxM, who were in the right place at the right time :)

Btw - one more question ?
Was my very weird luck today somehow influenced by Ryan or Fiero or whoever ?
It felt really weird to loose 13/15 rolls in first rounds of 3 succesive games, sending me several thousand points down ?

upmax: I might bump points as punishment but I'll never change the inner game. Luck is random and the same for everyone.

Was just asking - this was the weirdest luck/unluck streaks i ever experienced.
The 4th and 5th or 5th and 6th game i actually lost 5v3 6v3 in a row the sooner one and the later one.
I lost 9 8v8 attacks, then won 1, lost that teritory and lost another 3 8v8 attacks until i was knocked out.

max, are you sure g00b didnt log in as you?

Ryan, had an interesting convo with skrum about how lucky streaks happen as often as unlucky ones. the fine line of determining when lucky streak = funny business is damn hard. we were discussing nuf's insane-o stats for the month (31% 1sts!!!).

i mean, props to nuf if that was straight up no funny business.
