I have somehow figured out how to persistently suck at this game way too consistently to blame bad luck. OK, so losing 0-3 to Thraeg is not unexpected. But I did manage to fail to come within 50 points of him in any of the 3, and I had 30+ points each game at the start of my last turn. Certain people win consistently, so it clearly is possible to be skilled, but I can’t figure out what I should be doing differently. I sure wish the game had a replay function.
So far:
Season 24
Craiggiarc 3-0
ineffablebob 0-3
gpxxxtreme 3-0
Star Empires
Chronic 3-0
I’ll bet that Thraeg remembers the games better than any replay function could! :)

S24 right now:
DennyA > Thraeg 3-0
DennyA > Ron 2-0
DennyA < Bobehm 0-1
All done with S24.
ineffablebob > Mithrophon(3-0)
ineffablebob > gpxxxtreme (3-0)
AlieninCA > ineffablebob (1-2)
And let me just say that the 3-0 over Mithrophon is about the most misleading score ever. All three games were down to the wire and could have gone either way.

After two unsustainably good seasons, it was time to regress to the mean.
All finished:
Season 24
Craiggiarc 3-0
ineffablebob 0-3
gpxxxtreme 3-0
Star Empires
Chronic 3-0
Those three games against Bob were scarring. Every single one down to the final turn, undermined by bad draws. I’m not over them yet…
Please don’t update your posts that are earlier in the thread than the latest updated grid.

Sorry for the delayed update everyone! Most of the round 1 results are in, updated table below. Once we have the last couple of entries (or perhaps a little before), I’ll upload the table for Round 2 so we can get cracking! Thanks for your patience :D
Hi Kyle, you’ve got the results for Chronic & me flipped. Thanks!
