How interesting. Having the Turk up his arse wasn’t trouble enough for Munch, he’s had to come and make a new enemy. It’s enough to make a man break his specs as I type (true). Time to bury the hatchet with Omniscient, I’d been hoping for Russian cooperation against him and it’s for sure I’m not going to trouble him without.
You got your apology and my support against the Hun. Now you face a grand alliance of men and elves.
Shoulda made another grab at it this turn.

It usually helps if you buy me a couple drinks first, then try to grab my Brest.
Sometimes, penis ensues.
… Did I say penis? I meant Paris :eek:

You must be England in Game 2. Your best hope might be to sneak out the exit whilst Russia, Germany and France bicker over the best way to cook you.
Unfortunately I don’t think “Dawn take you all, and be stone to you!” will work in this game.
The Google ads are all over the idea of a move to Bulgaria, which is not exactly the handy hint of the century either…
I’m wondering how this can be a tournament of champions, and I’m not in it.
Feh. You didn’t respond when I announced.
Besides, it’s not a tourney of champions…it’s a tourney to establish a champion.
I thought that had already been established.
In any event, I moved to NOLA just before Hurricane Katrina so I’ve had some difficulty keeping an eye out for Dip opportunities.
One can only presume you’d have been as prescient in your Dip moves as your choice of home locations.
PS Where’s your buddy Abe_Babe been hiding?
Well, technically, the home is fine. Unlike most, we weathered the Hurricane well. City is devastated, however.
Abe Babe is still in Chicago. We evacuated to his house for a number of weeks after the Hurricane. I don’t know why he’s not Dipping.
Scared I reckon!
Speaking of scared, where your picks last week, Omni? I looked for them in IMHO several times and didn’t find anything. You had the Falcons, didn’t you?
Game One Orders due tomorrow!
Game Two will be briefly delayed as one player has opted out for personal reasons. If anyone knows a Doper who would be interested have them contact me.
Game Two Players take note:
Orbifold has consented to take over France in Game Two. There will be a one week delay in orders to allow him to find his feet.
I’ll send more details in the morning.
These damn kin of mine took all all opportunities to get the picks in before Saturday AM. Needless to say I have a Playoff thread out there now in which you’ll see I picked against your beloved Bucs. It’ll be interesting to see if this is the lucky horseshoe you guys needed.
