Hi everyone,I'll send a proper EGS tomorrow, but in the meantime I just wanted to say 'congrats' to my fellow draw-sharers, 'well done' to Mike and Warren for surviving, 'unlucky' to Sean, Nick and Doug, and a big 'thank you' to Mike for GMing the game so well. More tomorrow. JeromeSent from my BlackBerry® smartphoneFrom: Michael Norton <mjn82(at)yahoo.com>

Congrats to all from the Chinese Empire, currently struggling for control of the under-earth with the Mole people...

...and that's all, folks.

After a number of attempts, the PQAO draw has passed and the game is over.  I can think of a few players who would rather have seen the game end earlier, but it was not to be.  Congratulations to Andrew, Jerome, Max and Tim on prevailing to the end.  Congrats as well to Warren and Michael for their survivals.  It's tough being under attack for the whole game, so thanks for sticking with us.




The selfish part of me wanted to see this game keep going, as I wanted to see Persia and Quebec go at it over the Europe/Russia border, giving the map a good test.  But, I also see that if they did that Ociania and Amazon had enough control over the oceans to make their lives miserable.  I really thought a 2-way was in the cards.  But that is not to be.




I'd love to hear your comments both about the game and the map.  I continue to tweak and test to try to make it better.
