In the old old days all you needed to be first place was 1500 points... back then that meant you were a god at risk. haha. And congrats on being on the first page!

rev i played you in the trips tourney the premieship( which seems to off died). you were way more high ranked than me. iun the old ranks i made major twice. the new ranks i thought were pretty crap (they still might be), but i have seemed to rise to the ocasion(thats what my wife says anyway). after captain in the new scores you have to get 500 more points to progress.

Yeah I crashed all to hell and never got back up, I guess it was all a false ranking.
It could also be that I haven't had a game where i've felt i've had good dice in 3 months.

That statement would be considered excessively rude even by Northern standards... but it is beyond unacceptable if your roots have any link to Georgia (as I would assume they do)... but perhaps we need to cut you some slack, after all, allowances must be made for the descendants from when inbreeding was common in the West Georgia appellations. Now do the right thing and apologize.

Robin, hold your head up high... you are the RobinConquerer of the UK...
But as Yul Brenner said in "The King and I"... "tutt tutt... head must be lower than King!"

jackary i will let you off with that one, but with you only playing like 30 odd games (winning 22 is fairly impressive), you do not know how hard it is to get there. so let me wallow in my own glory and recieve some praise from fellow ccers. it may not last long, but every single win, has been in single matches. team games played 6 lost 6 (ithink that is the count so far). i don`t do team games, as i`m a bit erratic sometimes. i`m getting it under control though. maybe thats why i have moved up.
also as aafitz said i must not be drinking the wine as much.

There are only 6 of us there! I'm 1300 points behind you and the next guy is 600 points behind me! Still, there could be worse people to come second to
