Now if you can just rid yourself of that dishonorable Organization you insist on retaining, I could aver that you are a gentleman. > Congratulations on your excellent play.

By the rules then, I am afraid that you have lost. "If a player improperly reports the number of crashes any word in any salvo has with his Target Word, or... his opponent wins as soon as the error is discovered." I'm sure it was an honest mistake, and in this case it's not like it could have steered me wrong in further play, but the rules are quite clear. I could say something inflamatory about how this proves that Vulcan and "the Supreme Court" are Right and Good, but I won't. :) In any event, if you want to play another game (just for kicks) let me know. > 2) sluff 1 > 3) nomad 1 > 4) harpy 2 > > > breadbox > > - Vynd jmccoy@umich.edu ------------------------------ End of acka-games-digest V2 #151 ********************************
