I know. Also at the Crazy Dinner Date you were the first with a score 8-)

The difference is that all people will try to get you out of all games this time :geek:

As predicted :mrgreen:

Becoming again the overall winner is less likely now :oops:

Sorry I didn't do it

At least you have somebody to join you at the top now 8-)

Yeah I am now understanding that winning the first one was not good for the sec one....lol,

Score is coming in fast, when it continues with this speed the dinner date will be finished earlier then predicted :geek:

Anyway I have to prepare for 8 October, at that date everybody should have an extra slot available :mrgreen:

Game 3332612

1st: amazzony
2nd: endar1077
3rd: Kotaro
4th: MasterGuns
5th: LordZack72

Balut was great! First 2 people left us early and then we started chatting and we had troubles deciding who should be the last one leaving. I guess they were "gentlemen" and left the woman last to pay the bill :lol:

by **PaulusH** on Mon Oct 06, 2008 2:31 pm

Good work amazzony =D>

And then I am talking about paying the bill :lol:

Most likely the two who left early found out what bulat is :geek:

wiki:A balut is a fertilized duck egg with a nearly-developed embryo inside that is boiled and eaten in the shell :shock:

*moment of thinking*

#-o

*runs away*

*comes back in awhile*

Bad waiter, bad! This should of been told before I ordered it!

It was on the menu

And in my advertisement I explicitly wrote

I have never eaten it, so don't blame me :geek:

by **amazzony** on Tue Oct 07, 2008 3:43 am

Fooled by myself!Oh, well, at least I earned some tulips from it

Ok, I admit I made a good looking trap. :twisted:

Don't worry too much, there were 24 others who also joined and some of them have less tullips :mrgreen:

by **PaulusH** on Tue Oct 14, 2008 4:02 pm

Ok time of small problems to solve seems to be over :geek:

Last person of dish3 joined, on 4 tables dish4 is started as it should be and I did send first PM for dish5 :mrgreen:

At this moment it looks like that my predictions will be (again) wrong

At the first Dinner Date 11 of the 25 people came to date and it took longer then predicted

So I anticipated on that for this Dinner Date and now I have only 1 who came for the date :shock:

Anyway the result is that I currently expect this Dinner Date to finish earlier then predicted

But who knows, it is still possible for 21 games to continue for many rounds :lol:

by **PaulusH** on Tue Oct 21, 2008 1:31 pm

The soup is finished and nobody complained about any fly =D>

Only three persons with a top-score left :shock:

The eating of tulips at dish3 was one of the reasons why I did expect the top-score to hold for a longer period :geek:

The 1st finished Fugu table was won by one of the top-score; therefore doesn't eat any of his (her) tulips and remain top-score; in fact current top-score could hold longer now :ugeek:

Most likely one person didn't understood it very well: he (or she) didn't only eat the dishes but also eat all his (her) tulips :sick:

With one person from the waiting line this Dinner Date is running well again $\:D/$

dish3 in table 3419954 has finished (Game 3419954)

schnitzella ran away pretty fast after hearing what it was, Tammy DeLee also seemed to get scared quite fast. Gunner1980 and Katya stayed for a bit longer but I think that I scared them away in the end

I don't know what you did tell them, but indeed several plates came back with the Fugu untouched. :lol:

Ok my second prediction is very wrong. In fact it is 25% off target. That is even more then in my first tournament

What are the causes :geek:

by **PaulusH** on Thu Nov 13, 2008 3:09 pm

Ok a nice new score today, causing a reduction by 3 of the potential winners :mrgreen:

by **amazzony** on Thu Nov 13, 2008 3:11 pm

Just curious, what will you do with games that have ran into stagnation? I didn't notice it but have you set some round limit when you will find some other way out or are you waiting games to end even if it takes months and months?

In case you have a real match at a blind date in real life, it can take years before it ends

So my Dinner Dates may take as long as people need :lol:

For my City trip I booked only for 50 nights (as my travel agancy always will limit their bookings) :mrgreen:

For Trippel Trappel I also didn't made any limits, but simply because I don't expect that there will be standard triples games that can get more then 25 rounds (as long as that is not becomes the goal in itself) :ugeek:

by **amazzony** on Thu Nov 13, 2008 5:25 pm

Alright, thanks

btw, I'm too lazy to go back to your Trippel tournament but you were missing a link in there... under predictions

Alright you are correct :oops:

I am not perfect

So it turns out that I can make msitakes as well

But thank you anyway, I was able to correct it :geek:

There are always good things about mistakes: this is the first time I have the feeling that people look at my predictions :mrgreen:

And the link(s) should give some example about how incorrect they are :lol:

by **PaulusH** on Wed Dec 03, 2008 3:51 pm

The tea tables were intended to take a long time :geek:

With currently 4 ongoing I expect that one might hold until X-mass or even longer :lol:

3 tables have started to break up, I did expect two of those. :geek:

But continue until my original prediction is still a long time :mrgreen:

Nice new score today; it reduced the number of people that could win to 5

by **amazzony** on Thu Dec 04, 2008 1:12 pm

Sad to burst everybody's bubble... oh, wait, not really :lol:

Game 3560944 is over, amazzony wins. What a game, I think I've never played a No Spoils game so aggressively. I knew I'll be taking a risk but it seems this time it was worth it

GG, everybody in the game, very good game!

Yes with winning that game you also did win this Dinner Date =D>
