Ripping comp.

One suggestion would be a fixture list. I seemed to lay the same people quite a few times :wink:

Bit miffed not to make the top 10 and i contributed to Baganboys downfall by munching him a few weeks ago while he was leading. Didn't post much but i checked in most weeks.

Fangs very much for the colourful tables and effort this season. :D

I managed to achieve mis-tableness in yet another comp!

Great idea for a side game - do I win a prize for 3 draws?

I am a sucker for a side game will be bat next year to stake my claim

Unless that was the only time you were "munched" I think any of your previous losses could count as the one that lost you the tournament. ;)

I know what you are talking about DrB. :D :D :D
Just that, in the other munchings, either I was top and remained top, or not-top and remained not-top....
Moreover, End-of-the-season defeats sadden more than early-season ones.....

Anyway, great game, no doubts. Hope you are conducting this next season as well, kotlomoy

I know what you mean too. TBH, the only reason I replied like that was b/c it reminded me of the commentators recently who said things like "it's been 37 games but now XXX's season depends on the next 10 minutes" when in reality it was their performance over the whole season that led them to that point. :P

I'd like to add my thanks to kotlomoy for providing us with an interesting new sidegame this season,which was well presented with superb graphics.

He was also quick to update the results each week,which is important to maintain interest of those playing.

I'd especially like to compliment "kotty" as he's become affectionately known,for the patience and determination he's shown in coming back with this new game after his first game the previous season proved difficult to understand for most of us,and resulted in very little participation from the players,whereas this new game has produced plenty of banter throughout the season,and doesn't demand much time to follow.
It goes to prove,"if at first you don't succeed,just try,try and try again" but many would have given up.

I think that whereas blahblah said he'd prefer a pre-set fixture list, one of the good features of this game is that as you find yourself playing someone who scored similarly to you the previous week, it means that whether you're playing well or badly, you'll find yourself playing someone of equal current form,so even someone going through a bad time can still hope to win his Vampire weekly contest,which I feel provides compensation for maybe facing the same opponents quite often.

Finally,for "kotty" to devise and run so efficiently a game like this in another language to his own is a great achievement.

I wonder if any of us would dare to launch such a game in Russia, and run it in the Russian language ? Well done,kotty !
