Doc Mabuse got taken out LIKE A SUCKER for failing to feed his starving hordes. We were thiiiiiis close to schlupp losing the game due to a fuckup taking grain from a province one too many times.
I was mercilessly throttled. I think I had a rented pitchfork by the time we were done.
Meanwhile, ADEL VERHOITYPLICHTOITYTET is fun! Someone get that going again.
Hoity Toity is FUN indeed! But it took FRE to make you understand...another subtle vote for the awesome that is FRE!
A shout out to ALL Fatties...there is a lot of good playing to be had instead of just talking about it
My thanks to Jeb, schlupp, Dr Mabuse and WDGrant for all the laughs these last few months!
I am now deep in holiday mode and as such shouldn't join a game as I will go offline from 26 Dec to Jan 18 so don't want to stall games. But I do hope when things return to normal early next year we get a few more games going!
Merry Christmas to you all players...and thanks for the fun!
Congrats to the Doc (Hoity Toity) and yay me (Wally)! I'm in for more, but will be out of town until beginning of January as well. How could I miss a game with the charming title "pile on schlupp"?
Oz, any experience with 6-player Hoity Toity! More fun or less? The 4-player game was great, so I'd be down with whatever number we come up with in the end.
Anyhoo, for now I wish you Merry Changmas and a Happy New Year!
Come on, people! Come! On! Still 2 places left in our latest Wally game, maybe even less if wdgrant decides to join! Your lifetime chance to get a beating from the electronic tower of doom! Only you can prevent that ze Doktor takes home his first win ever!!
Shit, I keep forgetting. I'll email myself from work to remind me to sign up when I get home at lunch. How would you guys survive without me? Every game needs a guy that is basically fodder and can be ignored because he can't win.

IT'S ON! In the meantime I asked BaSL to join as well, so we've got 5 for Wally, 4 for Hoity. Watch out for BaSL, he is a fierce Wally champ with 6 wins out of 9 plays. Clearly he is the man to beat!! I mean look how he greets poor Dr Mabuse on the battlefield!

HOITY TOITY is crazy. Everyone should try to get in on this. Dac Mabuse is winning! Explain that. I guess he really is a snooty shit and is just drawing on valuable life experience.
WALLENSTEIN just started and I am looking good in the middle but for Doc Mabuse. He and I have cut big swaths though each others holdings. It could get unpleasant come Autumn of Year 1.
WALLENSTEIN, first year is over. I like the scoreboard: 20, 19, 17, 15, 14. Everybody still in the race. Jeb looking good relatively uncontested in Sachsen. Herr Doktor strong in Bayern, but dangerous neighbours on all sides. I'm good in the south-west, while in the north I'll see more battles with wd for sure. wdgrant strong in the south-east, but also in the north, with my Meck troops as the biggest threat/nuisance. And BaSL a bit scattered, but never underestimate him! He's the come back kid!
As for HOITY: I dread the moment when I show my exhibition only to find out that everybody else played a thief. Time to accept that I'm the only gentleman playing with a bunch of dirty thieves. These two guys sitting in jail claiming they worked for me? Don't know who they are and never met them...
Yeah, thieves totally wrecked me a few turns ago in HT. I felt used and discarded and hope you all rot in that jail cell. The one thief I used, stole a $2k check. What a fucking waste of space. He will be summarily shot in the upcoming days.
