After reading everything Walker wrote, he sounded just like Qadaffi. That guy bugs!

Samarai, I'd like to try my luck. Best of 5. I'll wait for you to invite me to the first game. In the meantime, I'll purchase the membership.

In Samurai's absence, I'll run this Series.

鬼谷子 Gui -- Since you've already purchased a membership and are pretty much set, I'll do the challenge with you. I'll invite you to the first game. If you would prefer to wait for Samurai, then you can decline the game.

uh oh...

Ruthless. Take heed of your name and don't deviate from the right course... the Ruthless course. Taking him down in five; giving him hope and then snatching it away as quickly as he got it, I like your style :)

Don't listen to them Ruthless. It will only make your pressure greater for game 5!

Think about the curse Ruthless!

If you win the series, he'll beat you in the ladder. However, if he wins the series, eternal wins against him in the ladder will be your part!

It got a little late in the day and we were at a crucial turn so I slowed it down. The past 3 games were played quickly.

In our 4th game, i've already made a crucial mistake that might just have cost me. But hopefully I can recover and take it to a game 5

For the sake of the curse, you could make one more crucial mistake in game four, to avoid a game five! Yeah, the first games were full of mistakes: you being at work, me playing between 4 and 8am without sleep. I was hoping to get a free membership before going to bed.

Ladies and Gents...we going to Game 5!

This one was a lot closer and it could have gone either way. Me forgetting to blockade on turn 6 really killed me. I had it set up and ready and I just plain forgot to click the card and assign it. Maybe one of those Start Over things where I forgot to re-use the card.

Anyways, lots of back and forth but luckily I got the win.

Now to a game 5 to decide it!

the last game was really interesting... if gui had broken your big china, it'd have been completely different. good luck in the last game

I agree. That last game was great to watch. You each played very timid at times,understandably so, each of you in turn left sets unprotected only to have the other not crack it. It's these series when everything on the line when you see this extreme cautiousness.

I'm sure the final game will be fantastic.

It comes down to this. I get the chills

A break in play, Ruthless is busy and wanted time to think about his next move.

We are more or less evenly matched, with bonuses of about 16-25 (after this turn). I'm threatening his Africa bonuses from Mid. East (16 vs 1); he's blocking his Western Russia bonus (15 to my 1); he's in Xinjiang (West China) w/11 threatening my India (13).

So...as I was making my move I got autobooted accidentally. I didn't think I was on the tail end of the 23rd hour...

So technically...i've lost. I'm not sure if Yuanshuai wants to have a rematch or just take my autoboot as a win.

It would only be fair if Yuanshuai made the decision and I'll follow each.

Too bad, we had a good one going too. Sorry for that guys.

i think a re-match sounds fair. post the game for our entertainment, please...
