PREV Spring 1921 Adjudication: NEXT

The grind continues!

Nah, just kidding. It's time to lean back, smoke yourselves some kippers -- I'll be back for breakfast.

A four-way draw is declared! Pop the corks! Shower in champagne! Dance with your Aunt Rhonda! (Now, is she the one with the hot rod body? Or the one with the hairy legs?) Pop in the Kool & the Gang and sing an off-key rendition of "Celebration".

And then write your EoG. If you can detach yourselves from the recent game play, I think you'll discover that you actually played a very interesting game. What started with a Western Triple was thwarted by an Eastern Triple, quickly devolved into a massacre of the central powers, and then settled into a long grind to find a stable draw. Many congratulations are, in fact, well deserved all around the board, even amongst those who were eliminated.

Just as an informational note -- lest I forget it later -- we would've had a draw a few game years ago, but Italy's 2nd consecutive NMR squelched it.

Once again, good game all. Enjoy a well-earned rest.
