naw, it's fine. In fact it seems to have gotten my boys pumped. You can be our next motivational speaker.
Not sure they need one with Boadicea at the helm. I think I'm getting a crush!
Thank you for the kind reply. And of course I hope you fine Imperialists prove me wrong.

Anyway, my apologies for that, it shouldn't have happened.
It was a stunned silence; I got quite a shock when I found the game under my eliminated tab. Your miracle dice came on the back of insane defensive dice against our stacks which with average dice we should have taken out 2 or 3 of your players. But complaining in game chat won't change it.
Having been on the receiving end of quite a few good rolls from Empire I just hope you get similar dice against KoRT and reach the final.

All I want is that we actually get a close contest from empire.
30-10, 30-10, 40-20? Lets make the games at least get some tension near the end Empire

Yes well, lets not forget that TOFU had several "miracle" showings with the dice. I won't go as far as to say they had more or less than Empire(my dice states show me at 0% on both sides at least). I also have no doubt both KORT and Empire will grab several good rolls, just as in any challenge. Bruce, I for one look forward to seeing who makes the most of them in the upcoming challenge

They have had some unreal dice though (and have you seen the latest in Brazil, lol) and all the starts in the key games. Very, very fortunate. Regrettably it's the kind of luck that runs out, and you can bet they get stuffed by KORT in the next round (pity).
Luck runs out like the turn Denise had sure, but I don't see the EMPIRE machine stopping anytime soon, and certainly not getting "stuffed" by KORT. Those cows will get plenty of fight from us, you can be sure of that!
We have Denise and Cat to distract those mucky beasts

It is not about the good or bad dice. It is mostly about timing and game settings. I doubt I will play much NS games now.

Nonetheless, as others have mentioned, it's useless to mention them.
I'm sure we all have our tales of woe, you just have to perk up and get it back some other day.

Looking at your last 5 battles, I hope it says pretty similar.

Iron Maid, when you get a chance, can you update the games played per player. No rush obviously, I just want to make sure everything's on the up and up. I hear a rumor that we are cheaters too.

I'm not sure about that one, Chariot. After devouring TOFU, I have a huge hankering for actual beef (hold the mayo). @Wolffy, before you say anything, this statement had absolutely zero sexual innuendo in it; I swear! I'm just happy we don't play SOY next. Puns aside, thank you kindly for the war. I made a promise to myself to keep the self-effacing humor at a minimum, and I think I fared pretty well (wow, something I did well, for once!)...drat, tee hee.
Best,
~V~

Real happy.
Wait, we still need another victory against TOFU?
Uh, they're hard.
Maybe I spoke too soon?
Someone said we're down to one kill remaining in Peloponnesian War.
Oh, this Vanilla Ice song is stuck in my head, I'll sing that aloud instead of think any longer.

Naw, it was just so quiet, I thought no one was around and was dancing, then I saw a wolf looking at me, panic, realized it was a friendly wolf(but he had seen my dancing), asked him to keep my poor, white-boy dancing to himself, and went on my merry way...yours works too...

Brilliant, but I think it was a Vanilla Ice song remix that some drunken Brit made.
