The group's page is online at:

http://republika.pl/gmmike/group3.html

Still need to fill in Starting provinces and then send out your TRs but I can't do it right now. I will try to do it today. I think you are able to do your diplomacy already.

Good luck again,
GM Mike

Just out of curiosity, Mike. Why is the champs game labelled as "beginner" on Kaobase. I'm fairly sure all of us have won at least the required 1 VP to be advanced! :D

Well Smashie you sure got the perfect starting position to do your famous "RIP four and win the game" move! :P

GO SMASHIE!!!

If this turns out to be a 5 vs 5 Clanwar-like game we might see a quick end to things.... or not.

Eg has at least 4 neutrals to capture, so I guess its safe to say he already won, no ? :roll: :wink:

Well, it was nice wearing the Kaomaris crown :king: for awhile, but I'm afraid I've got a bullseye on my back this game.

The only thing keeping me from an early exit is the fact that I've got my clan buddies protecting me :hehehe:
...........errrr......right guys? :gossip: (Scholars making evil plans)

Also, I have a nice starting position. :peek: Coincidentally, I have always found myself in the northeast corner of the map in each of these last 3 Champs games. Thanks GM Mike --- I'll pay you later. :wink2:

But seriously......... congrats to everyone who made it (or who could have made it, but turned down the invite), especially the first-timers. Good luck to all.

I forgot to ask you guys about that rule. :P

Well... too late now. My decision is NO headhunting. :)

Look over your shoulder Bryk. That's the two time(ing) champ up there in that corner. Don't believe a word he is telling you from that dusty corner of the Library. He does NOT have your best interest at heart. :roll:

AND in this corner....................

Or isn't anyone going to notice that?

Yup, soon enough to make a difference. Just wait and see. :wink:

First I have to take care of TK(shhh, he's sleeping), then it's on to the rest of the Scholars.

Oh and 1 more thing, sleeping on turn 1? that's a first. :lol:

Probably not ... but what's the use of sitting at home when there's a dance to get to? :D
