One game active before we can move on

[elonpuckhog]

Still one game going on. I would expect there may be a few week break before I can get the next rounds going.

[elonpuckhog]

Rounds 25-27 are out.

Good luck players.

tks for the rescue Elon ... does anyone know whatever happened to Dean? He seemed to disappear without a trace.

[donaldp03]

sorry this is coming so late, but yes I had spoken with dean before he left and was actually trying to help him find work after. He pretty much just got burnt out with the swings here and wasn't being productive enough in the real world. just went cold turkey. haven't heard from him in a few months, hopefully he's doing well

I reviewed the potential Fog Rule Violation in Game 14811297. Robes violated the Fog Rule and therefore should be docked 100. I solicited opinions from all players. Based on the responses, I have determined not to enforce the rule in this situation.

City Mogul games should go out today.

[Robespierre__]

Holy crap ... it was me!??!!? I started second in every game that round so I must have gotten confused. Oh the irony of blasting people for not having courtesy so many times ...

In my defence I so would have told Bah everything I did if he had asked. Given the dice that happened to him, I could have given him a screenshot of my starting position and it would not have helped him.

Apologetically,

Robes

This reminds me of a gameshow in that the first rounds really don't matter. With a $400 payout per game for this round, nobody is safe.

[denominator]

Congrats to Robespierre for winning the tourney!

Denominator finishes second with bahrain finishing third.

A close finish, but congrats to Robes for playing well and with honour in the final round. Even without a fog rule, the dude enforced a 12-hour wait on himself to the point of missing a turn. Well played and thanks for making it an enjoyable set of games.

Thanks to Dean for the fun format, and a huge thanks to elonpuckhog to coming through with the rescue.
