I'm enjoying the anonymous side of it too. I'm pretty certain I know who a couple of people are, based purely on their writing style and the types of deals they are trying to make with me!

For those of you playing along at home:

6 mines have been dug by 6 players.
A player has been eliminated.

I am a paranoid wreck*

I wish this game had a spectator mode. Just an after-the-game-ends one (to prevent all the obvious abuse scenarios.)

This game has made me low-key anxious for days. 5 stars, but I'll never play again!

I hate it and love it at the same time. I love the castles being built on sand bit, but hate the fact at anytime they can be kicked down.

I can't say I feel like that right now, but I said that about WoW too :)

I'm intensely interested to find out how was which colour at the end of the game.

It's an elaborate ruse: everyone you're playing against is actually MaliA, and he's banging you hard. Everyone else is playing a different game.

Sky, your Martyr / Navigator combo almost did for me in the last 24 hours... I was very fortunate I had a pirate on my hire list.

Well played Brown. I think that’s the first time I’ve seen the team with the smallest army win the game. Bravo!

Thanks Purple! I knew I wouldn’t be able to increase my electrical output without ticking off my neighbours, so that sort of dictated that I stay small and relately peaceful.

What sneak attack? The time I sent two drillers in for a laugh?

My favourite part of the game was seeing Mali build a mine. Before it completed, I told him I had my eye on a mine. He immediately stopped building it.

Me: “Only joking. I have no plans to attack you.”

Mali: *build mine*

Me: *immediately attacks and takes mine*
