Hehe, Twitch can't move soon...
Was it 4 or 5 damage when the last panel is locked?

Damage 5-9 lock registers 5->1 in order. Damage 10 makes a fireworks show.

Grundbegriff (Trundle Bot) : 0

Shinjin (Twonky) : 1
srdaniel (Spin Bot) : 0
stessier (Twitch) : 4

So card count for hand 3 is Shinjin 8, stessier 5, everyone else 9. Is that correct?

I think srdaniel has either 7 cards or else no cards if he's shutting down this turn. Do you have to be powered up to receive an option card on a double-wrench?

Correct, I made an error in the card counts, but corrected before I sent them out. srdaniel will not receive his cards before making his decision.

Damage Count

Grundbegriff (Trundle Bot) : 0
mipe (Hulk X-90) : 0
Remus West (Squash Bot) : 0
Shinjin (Twonky) : 1
srdaniel (Spin Bot) : 2 (if active)
stessier (Twitch) : 4

You must end an active turn on the double wrench to receive an option. No sleeping on the job to get a reward.

srdaniel · Post by **srdaniel** » Sun Oct 19, 2008 12:21 pm

I am not shutting down. I'll take the seven cards please.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Sun Oct 19, 2008 10:52 pm

Cards have been sent to all.

Shinjin · Post by **Shinjin** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 10:03 am

Anyone play any of the online versions linked at http://www.roborally.com/links.htm" target="_blank?

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 10:19 am

I haven't looked into any of them yet.

Shinjin · Post by **Shinjin** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 10:22 am

I couldn't remember if flag touching only happens at the end of the turn or end of phase. Looking over the linked manual, it sounds like end of phase. So stessier (Twitch) is now heading for Flag 2, right?

I sure hope so.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 10:57 am

Yeah, flags are registered at end of phase. Twitch is good to limp his way to flag 2.

stessier · Post by **stessier** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 1:01 pm

Before I forget, I'm going to be shut down next turn.

srdaniel · Post by **srdaniel** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 1:04 pm

Can we have the "current state" of the board image on the first page? After each turn, update that image so we don't have to hunt for an image of the current state.

I may be the first to die but I doubt I'll be the last. I didn't think 7 cards would be that bad, I think I should have shut down instead. Oh well, maybe I'll play spinbot as the bot that doesn't shut off.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 1:48 pm

Yeah, I can update the OP with the end of turn boards.

Also, I need to work on a list of assumptions that I'm going to adhere to in order to keep things running in a quick manner.

srdaniel · Post by **srdaniel** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 2:01 pm

Are you going to play a turn in advance if everyone gets their moves in ahead of time?

Just thinking that might speed things up a bit as well, assuming people get them. The next turn could always be 2-3 days from the time the last one was processed.

Just thinking

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 2:07 pm

Yeah. I've still got one hand I need back. If I get that back this afternoon, I can go ahead and run it this evening.

Can't even take care of your own fight? Geez, you'd think a little wienie like you would have stayed out of the rally.

I hope you have a sturdy keyboard. That usually means 8pm.

Damage and Scoreboard would probably be a good addition to the OP as well.

SCOREBOARD!

DAMAGE COUNT! Looking at the scoreboard in the first quarter is a good way to get booted in the ass for the next three.

The official tote board will. I ran a quick and dirty one from work.
