Folks,
All good things come to those who wait - and for Jorge of England the good thing that comes is a solo victory. Yes, DC-135 Fear And Loathing wraps in the days of Fall 1913 as England forces the door open in Spain and gains the coveted 18th center. Congratulations to Jorge for the solo win. Kudoes also to the survivors - Eric, Ian and Andy - for hanging in there. And thanks also to all the players who contributed to the effort of the game. Admittedly, I wasn't around to watch it from the beginning but it was quite the ride when I got here. =)
A note about the final SC count - The English army in Sevastopol was dislodged and had the option to retreat to Ukraine or Rumania. For the end-game result, I auto-retreated to the Ukraine. However, if Jorge wishes to pursue the Rumanian route then the English SC count will rise to 19 and the Turkish will lower accordingly. (Jorge, if this is your choice then please let me know ASAP and I will change it.) The game result would remain the same, but what would change would be the statistics maintained on the website.
Once again, congratulations to Jorge for another impressive win, and hats off to all of you players for making quite a game of it - especially towards the end. End-Of-Game (EOG) statements are greatly encouraged.
Cheers everyone! See you all in the next one.
