High Pot Press Game

#1 Post by ghug » Sat Feb 10, 2018 7:14 am

The gunboaters are showing us up. Let's play a game.

I'm thinking 1.5 or 2 day phases, at least 1000 points but I'm down for whatever I can afford. SoS and HDV would be cool but negotiable. Who's in?

I remember reading something about a way to bid points but not to lose them at the end (getting it back). Am I right ? How does this work ?

Yes -- don't lose.

put me in coach. 1100 is about the max I can do ATM though, so if enough people want a higher bid total...

You can dislike someone and still kneel before their superior skill :p.

I'm only willing to play if it will be draw-size scoring. I have sworn off SoS.

I haven't played a non-anon game in ages -- might that be interesting?

I don't have 1000 :points: but would happy to bet it all. Want to merge this with the GR challenge I was trying to make?

Non-anon is fine with me, I was just curious.

Contrary to my own advice to CptMike below, I just threw away @7,500, so I may as well throw more good points after bad. :|

I'm mostly a gunboat player now, but I can probably manage a 160-character tweet per phase, if that's cool with everyone. :?

Prefer DSS. Anon or non is fine. @1,000-@4,0000 max. :-D

I send press now, and am more than willing to give you all my points. Sign me up, so long as it is 2 days a phase.
