I was soooo close to not doing Manchuria.  Soooo close!  Glad I took the risk.

I know I do!  But in this case, it was more a function of risk vs reward.  If I didn’t get 4+ hits in the first round, I just retreat.  I’m still able to put up a decent defense.

But then I got 8 hits in the first round!

Thank you for the game.  Would you like to switch sides again and continue?  We’re 1 and 1, and we both can do best of 7.

New thread is up!  Awaiting your scrambles
