CC has a new colonel
Anyone who has played GK will know what a tough (but friendly) opponent he is, and won't be surprised to see him among CC's elite.
I've had the added pleasure of playing as his doubles partner (as well as being his brother).
So well done Genghis - next stop brigadeer!
But please stop rigging the dice in our 1v1 games, you don't need the points any more

I'd also like to offer my congrats to Genghis, he's a very good player, who has on more than one occasion saved my butt in a doubles game
Anyone who has the opportunity to play him, should, because he is a top notch player..
Way to be man.. keep up the good work !

Way to go GK! I've been watching this since we first played 150 games ago and he has gone up in a straight line since. Terrific player and great guy. Congrats!!!

Thanks guys!
I'd like to thank everyone who helped me get to 3000 -
demigod - for introducing me to the site and occasionally partnering me
gibbom, john1099 and Ezyace - my regular doubles partners, I couldn't have wished for better teammates and I couldn't have got here without you
Bean_ and Ender_ - thanks for the triples games, i'm 0-2 without you guys and 3-0 with you! Hope to add many more to those!
To all the top players I've played in singles, special mention to Scott-Land and Kid_A who gave me the chance to play great singles players back when i was at 1600 points, really taught me how to play escalating properly.
Hope I can give hope to everyone that you can climb the scoreboard playing a mix of games - I love my singles and I love my team games, played 50% of each - play for the love of the game guys, be kind to your mother and have fun!

Congratulations GK on a well-deserved promotion. Those who have played with you know it was inevitable. You're a great opponent and teammate.

GKCA is a ridiculously good player.
Didn't quite make the 3000 point mark under 200 games, but was awfully close!

back by popular demand ?
the list created by Robin showing every player ever over 3,000 points and how many days it took to do it ! One of my all time favorites

JR... How about we focus this thread back where it belongs...
Congratulations to Genghis Khan CA...
the newest CC "over 3000 points guy",
one of only a handful of players to accomplish this feat in under 300 games...
