Apparently I had 17 armies and he had 51. He had 21 territories and I had 7... then I went on to win.

not unusual for people to come back from one territory, to win multi-player games... i've done it several times... and i think a comeback in 1v1 isn't too hard either... depending on the neutrals, etc... anyway, keep kicking ass!!-0

Game 852009

1v1, no cards, I was down to just a single army at one point. Then the gods of dice parted the clouds and let me rise from the dead.

frankly I've always said you can't beat "I know you are but what am I" without resorting to ad hom.

Thanks, yeah. Well I guess I know some tips since my brother plays, but now he hates me since I keep using his computer!

ive had some good comebacks but telling a cc comeback story is like telling a poker story they all sound the same and every1 has one

Do it anyway. If everyone in the forums said nothing but original thoughts/experiences, there wouldn't be a forum at all.

At first I thought I would have to tell you to learn to use the quote function, AGAIN. Upon closer inspection... these are loafers.

Did you give your opponent laxative laced cookies?

I was in a 3 team doubles game where my partner was the first guy to get taken out and I was hardly looking good myself. I know that it is not unheard of for someone to win from this position but it was somewhat early in my time here and both of the teams had solid players of rank.

I was just particularly pleased with how it turned out because I envisioned a particular way the thing was going to go down and it played out exactly as I thought. It was also the first time it dawned on me to hold off on playing a max set. My hope was that by waiting, the other two teams would ignore me and waste their sets on each other and they did.

There are a few games that I look back on as wins that I completely engineered and am particularly proud of and this is one of them.

The game

I may make "laced" cookies, but not with laxative. ;) The dice just went south really quickly on him. Funny, I haven't seen him in the forums expecting "new" dice.
