Alessandro, Romi says that, she is very sorry ...

Post by Michael Sherwin »

... for having been the one to knock Hamsters out of first place at 'Open War 3'. :(

She hopes that you will not be upset with her and will still allow Hamsters to come and visit! :D

You were looking at 'Chess War'. I am talking about 'Open War' and I am not joking!

Hamsters was tied with Frenzee for first with 22.0 points and Romi was tied for IIRC 13th with 18.5. Frenzee won it's game and now is in first place with 23.0 points.

I will look at it. Not bad..time for cloning I say, I will dissolve American Goat Coalition and start American Hamsters Coalition, that way we can bribe those critters in exchange for favors.

Hi Michael,
no problem at all, I don't let these mundane things interfere with my real life. Defeat coming from a supposedly friendly hand is certainly tolerable, as is the loss of the first place. When you reach my level of high consciousness it's like watching everything from sky above and details matter no more when compared with the big picture. Because of this, I can simply say: REVENGE! You b...rd! Next version of Hamsters will be equipped with shurikens and you better prepare your Ninja Something a.. for some major kicking! :D

It's alright, my wife finally allowed me to buy a wonderful toy (*) and I spend all my time there... so yes, maybe my hamsters are not so good in playing chess but you should hear them sing! :D

(*) She gave up after only two weeks of pressure, much less than expected... wonder what's up with her... :roll: [/url]

Nice toy! :D

But, looks like a diabolical plan to reprogram my chess playing android chick (Romi) using musical tones. And your wife is in on the plot! :lol:

So, I am going to counter by getting Romi some ear plugs. :twisted:

Let your little Hamsters serenade away! 8-)
