We should be pretty close to done. Maharg hasn't picked up in a while so I assume he's away.

Cheers to ROTW and Europe for finishing

Waiting for 2 final games. One I know has only recently kicked off and I have a gut feeling about Matt and Graham's game, in that Matt may well win it, have no idea what the score is at the mo. If that is the case Chris and Mike will be the decider. A draw or a win for NA means that North America will be crowned champs for the first time.

Anyone heard from Maharg25 lately? It been a week since he picked up a turn and wanted to make sure that the game wasn't lost in technical glitch land.

Hi Matt

He has been away and so should start playing tomorrow.

He emailed me and stated it wasn't looking good so I am expecting a 3 vs 1 to NA shortly.

Just wondering if our team captain has played a few more turns vs Chris?

Not sure what to do here as it is the decider!

Congrats on winning the US Open

No more news from Triarius since he accepted the challenge last Sunday.

Chris

And the NA/UK Crowded game ends.

Me (Indian) 21/73, Maharg (scythian) 80/78.

North America = 9 pts (771 bps)

So the final game between Triarius and batesmotel is the showdown.

A win or a draw for NA and they will be crowned champs. Even a loss could still hand them the title.

If pts are equal bp kills are then used to determine who wins.

My understanding is that Triarius is still hiding in the bushes hoping Chris will go away....

Is the done yet? Haven't seen any update in ages.

Deeter

batesmotel (Late Achaemenid Persians) 25/48 NA
Triarius (Thracians) 79/73 UK&Eire

Thanks to Mike for getting this game in amongst his computer troubles and then his sentence in audit hell, as well as putting in overtime to get the results tables for the temp league up and running correctly. I was daunted by the size of the Thracian army but Mike definitely wasn't at his best due to distractions and too much time off from the game. The Persian line was getting thin by the end but the Thracians had lost enough so it didn't matter.
