Re: Nimbleweed II
Well done Tube Geek! I, as the old champion, present with the metaphorical cup of Nimbleweed! When will we get the next game?

Re: Nimbleweed II
Don't you mean Nimbleweed?
Probably start it on Monday, I think. Should we just hijack this thread, to save some space?

Re: Nimbleweed II
We're only on Page 8, and I imagine that the new rules will make the games shorter.

Re: Nimbleweed II
Yes, well done Tube Geek. Just to confirm the final scores:
Tube Geek 1800
A Challenge 1332
GuyBarry 408
I'm happy for the next game to start on Monday. Wasn't really in the running for this one because I had a lot of other things going on, but hopefully I can take part more in the next one.
I take it you're both happy with the new scoring system?

Re: Nimbleweed II
Should we raise the winning post (not gap needed or maximum)?

Re: Nimbleweed II
Could do, I suppose - the scores certainly increase a lot faster in this version. What do you think it should be?A Challenge wrote:Should we raise the winning post (not gap needed or maximum)?
By the way, if either of you wants to keep score next time then I can send you a copy of my spreadsheet - all you need to do is input the time, player and size of each claim and it calculates (nearly) everything else.

Re: Nimbleweed II
2100 or 2400 (even 3000, though a bit high) is what I would recommend.
I will also do the scores for a few games if you want me to. Send it through tomorrow morning, as I presume you need to Email it to me, do you?

Re: Nimbleweed II
I'm happy with 2160, as it is still an exact amount of hours, rather than 2100

Re: Nimbleweed II
Yes, that's a better idea, as you said. Unless GuyBarry has any objections, I'll for the scores, and the game is to 2160 not 1800 (bold in rules and the rest not).
