BM 23 Playoff Final Gamerman (L+4) vs Farmboy (X)

@gamerman01 said in BM 23 Playoff Final Gamerman (L+4) vs Farmboy (X):
Since you ask, in 2016 after failing to pull away from Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton bemoaned “How am I not 50 points ahead??”
Actually, “pull away” is not the correct way to put it. She was losing at the time.
-
@gamerman01 I don’t remember the specific comment but I thought it might have been a reference to something like that.
-
I’m not going to look it up, but I think I said that when I knew you were in a similar time zone and was guessing that you may be American
-
yeah. I think we are probably the same time zone if you are in Ohio? I’m just a few hours drive North East. in Toronto, Ontario.
-
I’m a few moves behind, on my physical board
Will be enjoyable to catch it up! -
I just came back here to make sure you didn’t overlook my save file, and there was your Italy, a day ago! Not the first time that’s happened.
ANZAC/France should be easy, I’ll play them now
-
@gamerman01 no worries. I should have realized with the conversation you might not have seen it.
-
Because you almost always move in less than 24 hours I looked, so your regularity keeps it going even when it’s my turn!
-
And then I forgot to put in game notes -
2 French are on 1 UK transport.
I guess I can utilize all UK transports in round 13 after all -
Sweetens the pot a little for you

Oof! I haven’t even looked at J yet - there are a lot more demands on my time than I am used to.
This is still a high priority in my life, but I have a close family member falling apart and I’m behind on my work schedule as I’m trying to finally get to the end of a big move to a better house.
We’ve been working on getting 3 adult’s stuff out of a home of 21 years, and has to be done by Monday 11/27, the closing date.
I have a new (and rather expensive) snooker table and have only played 3 games since it came in a couple weeks ago! So this is evidence that my fun has had to take a back seat lately. But you can’t keep the gamerman from playing games for very long…And yet there’s still a chance that I sneak in the big US/UK move tonight, who knows!! Thank you
-
@gamerman01 no worries. Take your time. I’ve been pretty busy too. And enjoy the snooker!
-
I imagine a snooker table is a great place to set up an axis and allies game :)
-
Game board’s in my office, the only things that go on the snooker table are 15 reds, a yellow, a green, a brown, a blue, a pink and a black, plus cue ball. ;) Occasionally I may let it be corrupted by the 2 1/4" 8 ball balls <gasp> but not anything else, no lol
And I had to settle for a 7 footer even though my room will easily fit 9 :( :( I’m in the middle of the USA and there is no such things as snooker. I got like the 2nd table to ever come through the billiards store in big town, Iowa, in 35 years. I have to keep telling myself that. Maybe I should have ordered in the parts and had the guy put it together, but I don’t like regrets, so I’ll just be thrilled with what I have and introduce it one person at a time to get a little culture into my fellow Americans
-
@gamerman01 My Dad bought a used one when I was a kid. Snooker as well, although I tended to play 8 ball. But I recall that some of my other games ended up on there too.
