Theres some vent audio involved here, so I hope the participants are ok with this. I had a good time. Zoo built a squad and we arrived in Light Nation. Light Nation won by a seemingly large margin with ~27,000 points more or less (2,700? i didnt write it down, oops) My total contribution earned 321 tokens.

I did not feel the treachery or inconstancy of a friend, nor the injuries of a secret or open enemy. I had no occasion of bribing, flattering, or pimping, to procure the favour of any great man, or of his minion; I wanted no fence against fraud or oppression: here was neither physician to destroy my body, nor lawyer to ruin my fortune; no informer to watch my words and actions, or forge accusations against me for hire: here were no gibers, censurers, backbiters, pickpockets, highwaymen, housebreakers, attorneys, bawds, buffoons, gamesters, politicians, wits, splenetics, tedious talkers, controvertists, ravishers, murderers, robbers, virtuosos; no leaders, or followers, of party and faction; no encouragers to vice, by seducement or examples; no dungeon, axes, gibbets, whipping-posts, or pillories; no cheating shopkeepers or mechanics; no pride, vanity, or affectation; no fops, bullies, drunkards, strolling prostitutes, or poxes; no ranting, lewd, expensive wives; no stupid, proud pedants; no importunate, overbearing, quarrelsome, noisy, roaring, empty, conceited, swearing companions; no scoundrels raised from the dust upon the merit of their vices, or nobility thrown into it on account of their virtues; no lords, fiddlers, judges, or dancing-masters.

    Nice vid - good quality too. It answered a few questions in there. Just wondering what the flag reset mechanic is - guess we'll work it out next time, and looks like the barb is gunna be the best flag carrier.

    Thanks. That was the first instance we went to and then we figured out how it worked. It was a blast because we started lacing through all these regions and every battle we went into we came out winners. I think our opponents never captured flags in any of the regions we joined. It was mostly always like 22-1 victories. I didn't capture video on the entire 2 hours, I thought I had enough just from that first battle, if only I had captured the whole night on video and edited it into those victory highlights and shown the final nations tallies.

    Good video, ty. The flag resets into one of the 3 green squares. Either in the Center or the East or West. The one with the flag simply follows the red arrow to the turn in point and repeat. A very simple operation until you factor in the opposition. b:laugh Where the flag resets seems to be random, so have folks at all 3 spots. Great fun for all.

    b:bye
