Thread of 'Nuff Respect

Post by Charlie Reams »

Like the thread of brag, but for posting games by other people which you think were awesome, and especially for recognising your own defeats when your opponent played well.

I'll start with this, which is one of the best 9 round maxes I've seen.

Kirk's best ever score, with some great nines and other nice words. Very well played.

There should be a thread to go along with this where you post games where other people have played really shit. I think it would go down really well, and couldnt possibly cause any offence to anyone, ever.

Haha. "Laughably Bad Games", perhaps? Also the Thread of Twat, wherein people just post a list of everyone they think is a twat. Possibly a bit harsh, but good for everyone in the long run.

I thought this was some pretty fantastic playing by David O'Donnell with 14 maxes, thrown only by an unknown 9.

Bit of a max fest; I played alright but Big Dave is unstoppable these days.

Wow awesome stuff. Thing about touchnundrums is they're either insanely easy or kerrazily hard, and most of these fell into the latter camp, so kudos :)

It was unknown against Shaun so his comment stands. Against Prime it was stupidity! Cheers for posting that Shaun (and Charlie).

I'd like to say well done to Peter Crawley for this game.

http://www.apterous.org/viewgame.php?game=98344

13 maxes and probably the best game by a player that i've been involved in. Not a particularly high Max, and he got a bit unlucky with a tricky little final numbers.

Gutted that is dismissed DOMINEES as a made up word in R.6 though.

Dale's getting scarily good scarily quick. I was beating him regularly a month or two ago, now he's awesome.

This wasn't the greatest numbers attack game ever but it was very enjoyable to play against one of the greats of the game (Chris Davies). I played 6 small all the way and managed to lead after 19 of the 20 rounds (OK, so he misclicked twice) and I then changed tack for the last game (1 large) and went on to lose it!

I really enjoyed this too, and after round 19 I was sure you'd won!

Innis isn't bad, is he?

Round 12 was particularly good, while the speed of his conundrum was just mad...

Respect due to Mr. Carson for being (I believe) the first person (and to date, only person) to achieve a perfect letters attack, a perfect numbers attack and a perfect conundrum attack. :)
