Well whatever OK

[Whackamatt]

Is that a concession?  Did I finally get lucky in round 18?

Either way, thanks for the most fun I’ve had playing A&A in a long time.  Had to step my game up for this one!

[variance]

yeah I’d say that is game over.  I’ll post on the results thread.

If you are up for a tiebreaker, I’ll play allies if I get $10.

[Whackamatt]

I’ll take the Allies @ 9  :-P

[variance]

I’ll do it for $8.  final offer

[Whackamatt]

Deal.  How/Where do you want the bids placed?

[variance]

OK I’ll take 1 inf in London, 1 inf in Scotland, and $2 in the bank for UK Europe.
