2001 Players Tourney, Round 1: Group B - Markus (Host), Deity, Hydey, Makeo

[Alexander's Horse]

Horse opens book: Go Deity!

Deity even money favorite

Markusf 6 to 4

Makeo 2 to 1 and late mail

Hydey 100 to 1 (write your own odds!)

I think I'll have $10 on makeo - Deity and markusf are too short

I suggest pre-race urine swabs for the entire field. Bags not have to take the samples.

I see I have been backed in after opening at 1,000,000 to 1.

I'm glad so many of you have put you hard earned cents on me, Raz even had a dollar.

Thanks for that loan of the second computer Horse and keep taking those bets on the others.

Now, understanding that I do not arrange these groupings with any initial expectation of the results...

Gee Hydey, I think you should be *at least* 1,000 to 1! You underestimate yourself! The odds are at least decent that all the other players computers will die at a critical time. And there is always the possibility of an asteroid striking North America...

See? You have a good chance of winning!

[deity]

Hydey is 4:1!

You better believe it!!

He was way in front of me and Markus in a trial run last week

Makeo is better than me BTW.

Markus is toast

Beware the wounded Hydey

Marcus, Makeo and Deity
I take it we are still set to stat this thing in about 14 hours time.
I will definitely be here to play but due to an accident at work , I have severe concussion and 12 stitches in my scalp, I may require to have an occasional break. I won't know until I get up tomorrow.

Thanks for your understanding.

[Rasputin]

we will kill you off first put you out of your misery

[Hydey]

Thanks Markus, I knew I could count on you to care.

will Hydey reach round 2 ??

Well this super game got going today, we soon discovered that we all shared the same land and the mad rush to settle the land began. Some minor squabbling but nothing to serious, at the end of the session it appears Markus has a good lead but Makeo is chasing him hard, Hydey is not out of it in third and Deity is struggling a bit but he is allied to Markus and I'm sure is getting plenty of help. I think the game is quite well balanced with 1st and 4th allied and 2nd and 3rd allied. The next session should prove very interesting.
