Risk: OOT Warfare on Wednesday Night
 
Being in OOT makes playing all other games leave my mind for the rest of the night. So, I think I'm going to waste the whole day playing one game of Risk after another.

I'll probably multi-table Risk tonight. Who wants to play in the opening war?

PM me your e-mail and I'll send you the e-mail invitation (that's the way the website works).


War 1: Dynasty, Kurosh, Gorie, Mason Hellmuth, zokbarjazz (Jesus), Randy_Refeld (WarMaster)

Invitation e-mails have been sent out to all combatants.

War 2: Dynasty, mostsmooth, Scotch78, Caldarooni

Invitation e-mails have been sent out to all combatants.

We need a 24 man risk league- ala Poker Superstars. Everyone plays 6 matches, getting points based on place, and then advance.

Re: Risk: OOT Warfare on Wednesday Night
 
Kurosh takes the early lead by capturing Australia. It seems as if that will be his base of attack, as the rest of his armies are spread out.

Did anyone ever play Global War on a BBS?

Risk without the dice truly rules.

To those who haven't caught on,

The images in kurosh and Dynasty's posts update as the game goes on.

Well, yeah, Obviously.

But in all seriousness, where did Kurosh's troops go? Looks like he took Siam...but then he only has 3 troops there. I guess there was one holdout that killed off like five troops or Kurosh banged his head into China or something.

Obv Mason is the prohibitive favorite now. He's probably 55% or so, with Kurosh around 35% and the other players sharing the final 10%.

LORD was nice because it was simple and you could do your daily turns easily. Trade Wars was still the best BBS game by far though. I miss that game.

And I want in too on some online Risk. League or just tonight, whatever... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

It's a shame I work evenings. I really want in on this, damnit.

I haven't played Risk in, geez, at least 8 years, and I'm sure I would suck royally ... but I'm having fun just watching you guys.

(That confirms it ... I have no life.)

Wasnt TradeWars 2002 the BBS version? Were you guys hardcore about that game? I remember the good old days on a 2400 modem running trade/steal scripts in TradeWars to steal + sell Equipment at trading posts over and over and stuff or running scripts to move people from Sector 1's planet to populate my own planet. Those were the good old days. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Anyway, I dont think people are that interested nowadays in playing text-only games...

Oh wow really? Hmmm... I dont want to pay to play. I noticed there are a bunch of servers running TW 2002 HERE that you can telnet to.

I think Ill check them out later and see how the games are progressing. It sucks bad to have a late start in that game. Let me know if you start out in any of these servers so I can join in.

I suspect this was more due to a lack of skill on my part than a lack of simplicity on the game's part.

Ahhh I see now... I didnt even get it when you revealed what the acronym stood for until you said "flirting with Violet." Thats from L.O.R.D. aka Legend of the Red Dragon. That was another fun game, but oversimplistic in my opinion. It could be pretty damn fun if the game was reset and everyone had a good amount of turns though.

Btw, you ever play that game and attack like a lvl2 character, and that character turns out to be equipped with the most powerful weapon in the game? I never figured out how they did that w/o the sysop helping them...
