Just a brief note (I'll write a fuller EGS later) to say thanks to Mike for running the tournament, Trout for GMing and everyone for playing. Only my second game on the site, and the standard of play is very high - great to see few nmrs and people fighting on to the end. The high number of solos overall says to me we are a very determined bunch.


cheers

Nigs

PEACE!!

I guess rumours of the diplomatic corps headquarters being bombed were over-stated, after all. Well, at least the damage to the building was that is. We find the table containing the various peace proposals still intact, and in fact there are mutual agreements on declaring an English solo.

And so, the war ends. Congratulations to Nigel for his second solo victory in the Blitz. Hats off also go to Max and Clark for surviving till the end, as well as to all the players for their efforts. I have to say that this has been a very interesting game to run and to observe. End-of-game statements are, of course, very welcome. =)

Cheers everyone! See you all in next years Winter Blitz! =)

Trout
