That was bad-ass, Grund. Especially since I was looking at the post as the screen loaded in top-down. I LOLed.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Thu Nov 06, 2008 10:22 pm

Hand 10 is out. If I can get my comics sold for a decent amount tomorrow, I will be out of town through the weekend with no access to my files/tools. Deadline is Monday 7 pm CST.

Everybody still having fun?

All I get is the stupid naked fat man.

I hate whatever stupid filter/routing causes this.

Replaced his link with one to photobucket. Does that help?

And Isgrimnur, I'm not having fun anymore. Addiction is rarely fun.

Absolutely!!

I was trash talking up a storm before the start of last turn. You probably just had trouble hearing...that mine shaft had horrible acoustics.

But I'm back on track! And it's going to be hilarious as Twonky gets nothing but Rotates and ends up in the mind shaft himself.

He'd wind up looking over the edge, but not in it this round. He's got 5 belt squares between here and there. Just bear in mind that the Southern boards have very open lines of sight.

Yeah, I made a note of that after Turn 8.

All hands are in.

Spin Bot will be shut down next turn.

DAMN YOU SPINBOT! I already had a nice trap coming for you :/

You need to be trapping Twonky, he of the three options, not poor little Spinbot. I'd do it but he is my friend. Hear that, tractor beam boy? We are friends. Do not shoot, I repeat, do NOT shoot.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Sun Nov 09, 2008 2:52 pm

Majority vote and I'll run it tonight.

The trap might still work. I didn't have much to work with this last turn.

YOU ACTIVATED MY TRAP CARD !!!

Also, it's fine for me that we run the hand today... After all, I don't have any option cards so it doesn't matter for me...

Made the right call changing my play. My original play risked Twonky not having a U-Turn which would have gotten me pulled into a pit. Whew.

Shinjin · Post by **Shinjin** » Sun Nov 09, 2008 10:35 pm

What? No hug?

So far no carnage. Somebody needs to turn the correct direction so I can see some good old pew-pew!

To increase the carnage (like we need it), I'm giving Hulk X-90 nothing but Move 2s.

Oh, and my turret seems to be jammed Forward. Someone pass me some WD-40 so I can try to loosen it?
