Californication series 4 final episodes
Wouldn't it have been much more fun to see him go to prison? I was really disappointed. I'm not saying this for moral reasons, but simply for the entertainment value of the show.

Wielding the Mute Thread Feature Randomly
So, I accidentally muted a thread... (mashed the mouse button getting up off the couch and the pointer happened to be directly over the 'mute thread' feature) How would I go about unmuting it as I think it was the thread I'm looking for (since I can't seem to find it anymore)?

MadMarx ABI Overal Results
Since this may turn into an annual "official" tournament, with rumors of me getting to distribute points to the top finishers, I'm going to go ahead and do that this year just for pretend, to warm up for next year's inviational. More inside.

I think the first four are phase lengths and the last three are just the game numbers.

uclabb, did you see this:

How many "points" will MM get in his 7 games?
Solo = 7pts; 2-way = 6pts; 3way = 5pts; 4way = 4pts etc...
guess total number of supply centers for the tie-breaker (put in parentheses)
uclabb (589 D)

Smart guy.

Thanks MM, very enjoyable game - thanks for creating such an interesting set of games.

The best part of the whole Invitational is the EOGs, IMO. It's always fascinating to see what was going on behind the scenes on the other side(s). I hope participants continue to post theirs.
fortknox (2059 D)
17 Dec 11 UTC
EOG's isn't restricted to these. Usually big, high end games have them, and, yes, they are really good reading and good teaching tools.
Alderian (2425 D(S))

I just wish I kept better notes so that I could do better EOGs.

So, MM, you chosen 6 players to have a winner's table with?
ghug (5068 D(B))

I thought he was going to choose 7 and not play himself. Either way, I'm curious to see who's chosen.

Well, I'll feel things out to see if people want to play an ABI championship game, as well as when they'd want to start, but I'm thinking after New Years.
MadMarx (36299 D(G))
20 Dec 11 UTC
FYI - I want the championship game to be as anonymous as possible, so if anybody wants to volunteer to play, whether you were in the invitational or not, please PM me and we'll see what happens. If I get enough interest, I may even have two championship games, splitting up the ABI single game "champions" against some more anonymous competition.
MadMarx (36299 D(G))
20 Dec 11 UTC
To be clear, if you post interest on this thread you will be disqualified, so you must PM me if you are to be taken seriously.

When is this likely to happen, MM? I just refuse to believe that you are 5x more likely to win than I am :P

I think you did invite me to the invitational, but I foolishly refused.
MadMarx (36299 D(G))

October worked well this time, though I may very well do it this spring (after Spring Break, probably early April) and run it twice a year.

Okay, I've created the two games, have invited some, in the morning I will drop out of the games and invite the rest, so please keep an eye on your PMs, thanks and good luck to those involved!:

MadMarx (36299 D(G))
03 Jan 12 UTC
FYI - I have sent out all the invites, if anyone thinks they have been forgotten, please PM me because two people that initially accepted an invitation are no longer able to play. Also, if you are interested in playing for any reason, please PM me and I'll let you know if there is still room.

I hope to get these games going in the next couple days, certainly by this weekend, thanks to all for your patience.
