Re: Official Thread of Brag
The bots also get a bonus for long rounds so there's nothing dishonest in doing that, if you have the patience to bother.Gavin Chipper wrote:Oh, and before you get too impressed, I did go for 180-second rounds but now I've done that I'll try and take him with proper length rounds.Charlie Reams wrote:Impressive.

Re: Official Thread of Brag
OK, but I was under the impression (from a discussion a couple of weeks or so ago) that the bonus didn't apply to Rex because he's supposed to be infallible anyway, which is why I started going for the long rounds. The first time I ever tried to beat him at hyper numbers I naively thought he might struggle with shorter rounds so went for 5 seconds. I was actually still quite pleased with the result since I got 5 out of 9 (I can mention that I was pleased with myself because this is the thread of brag).Charlie Reams wrote:The bots also get a bonus for long rounds so there's nothing dishonest in doing that, if you have the patience to bother.

Re: Official Thread of Brag
Oh, I see. Yeah, I meant the bug of beating the max rather than beating Rex, but fixing one would probably fix the other one anyway.Gavin Chipper wrote:OK, but I was under the impression (from a discussion a couple of weeks or so ago) that the bonus didn't apply to Rex because he's supposed to be infallible anyway, which is why I started going for the long rounds.

Max goatdown 9. Was pretty happy with the gamble I took on the conundrum, as I was considering a couple of things it could be. What is the reason for this format being relatively unplayed?

Re: Official Thread of Brag
Nice game. Normal-speed Goatdown is generally not much played, and in such an explosive format (where a first round lead of 18-0 is not unusual), 9 rounds is probably too much volatility for most players good enough to be posting max games. But not you, sir, evidently!JackHurst wrote:Max goatdown 9. Was pretty happy with the gamble I took on the conundrum, as I was considering a couple of things it could be.

Re: Official Thread of Brag
Whilst nowhere near a max, from my position, it was nice to beat an Octochamp and quarter finalist in the current series. For all I know, Ryan may even be the series champ.

p.s. With it being a Friday night I've also been drinking for several hours. More often than not, I find that this adversely affects my ability to see words etc. Even more reason to celebrate a win without the need for a conundrum.

Re: Official Thread of Brag
What is it about Friday nights, getting pissed and playing Ryan Taylor?
I don't know but it seems to work for me. This is probably my best ever letters game (1 short of max and the miss was to Ryan's 9 in round 1):

I learnt the word MOPOKE some months ago and checked it up as it sounded great. Beside it it said it was another term for MOREPORK. I remembered it as I visualised a Geordie saying MOPOKE and it sounding like MOREPORK (well in my head anyway). Couldn't believe it when it came out.

Re: Official Thread of Brag
I've been playing 'attack'-style games of different lengths the past few days and was rather chuffed to get back-to-back a Perfect Numbers short attack and a Perfect letters short attack.
Later attempts at 'Long attacks' (1, 2, 3) met with limited success.![Neutral :|](./images/smilies/icon_neutral.gif)

After all these near misses, I've finally got 200 on bullet numbers attack!
This means that I'm now as good as Richard Brittain so I can become an octochamp with 820 points, win a series but then lose in the first round of the champion of champions, declaring amongst others SALONEEN and GANDISEEG along the way.

Max number 1: Yay
Max number 2: Yayer
Can I do another one before the end of the day? Nobody has ever done 3 in a day before. Watch this space...
EDIT: YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After 48 attempts of trying and many 14 maxes and screaming and banging on tables, here it is (15 minutes before I had to go out clubbing): Get in!.

Re: Official Thread of Brag
Just had a few cracking games with Chris starting with this epic Goatblitz http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=191881
Started off with a pencil-worthy 9 and managed to beat Chris to the first conundrum. 36 points ahead after round 6 I was happy as a clam
However he clawed back the 2nd conundrum and at round 14 I knew he needed to pull out a 9 and the conundrum and I had that sinking feeling that he would. Alas he did ![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif)
This was followed by a very evenly-matched speedgoat which again went down to a crucial conundrum which Chris again solved
http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=191887
However I finally came unstuck in this game http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=191890
Some very tricky Darrens evaded us both including BURGEON, MAZDOOR and DULCAMARA. 20 ahead before the last numbers I did my stoopid tactic of picking 6 small (I always think if I switch loyalty to 1 large at this point I'll fall flat on my arse) Luckily it paid off and I finally got my Chris on a stick![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)
Cheers for the games pal

So close to a max game, denied by the conundrum:
http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=193093
since I got this before it was revealed, I consider it a pseudo-max game (or something).
The very next game:
http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=193097
Don't think I'll ever be so close to successive max games.
