Yeah, the Japs have got this one, I’m afraid. Well played, though! Thank you for helping me out with my first play-by-forum game, and I very much look forward to being partners in the XDAP tourny once it’s online. We’re going to be unstoppable :)

I am absolutely up for a rematch. Would you like to do same sides/bid or change things up? I have no preference–whatever you’d prefer. Though I would like to make the next one a league game if you’re willing.
