Ah.. OK, I just heard from Hammer, he's like a little later if possible. He asked for Saturday 9pm, which is his Sunday 9am.

Did it really matter? You guys found dock first, game over. I'm sure they'll throw you a ticker tape parade somewhere for your 26 minutes of effort.

Maybe a truce game would be a better idea? Nobody is going to live long otherwise.

26 minutes? talk it up... it was 24 minutes hahaha

It was always who found the dock first, you picked the ridiculous fast edit. We just made sure we had a strategy to make sure that was us.

Truce?? the whole point is you blockade every noob game and don't give anyone that option and now YOU want a truce? lol

Anyway, to be honest I enjoy games when people blockade, makes it challenging. So it is no sweat to me Shadow, I'm just stirring the pot.

I'd prefer a challenge with low turns. You don't need a truce then, you just play the strategy game that tradewars is. Not a script fest.. and trust me, I can win script fests i.e. we just did. We probably had hit 30-40mil in cash by the time I killed you at the 24 min mark of the game.

Cheers,

Hammer

What's the record for the shortest ever death match?

And remember, I let you choose the edit.

We all know Hammer is a good player. I don't see your name there.

Xanos is missing a bot somewhere. Go make yourself useful.

You are correct that we all knew it was who found dock first. You got lucky. I'm sure you had a strategy, you would have been stupid not to. It was probably not any different than ours. There's a strong element of luck in who finds it first.

Good job. If we had found it first, the result would have been exactly the reverse of what it was. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

I'm a pretty good strategist too. I may not write scripts, but I help design and test them. Now I have two excellent script writers on my team. I'm one lucky Gal!

Uh, last I heard, Hammer was on EMC, not your team. Unless he's left that team for yours. Which I can't imagine anyone wanting to do, since they'd have to listen to your Bullcrap on a regular basis.

I like how you use "people whose coattails I ride" as a synonym for "team".
