Piltdownrook defeats Omnivorous. Twice. (see disclaimer)
Evidently I outlasted Omnivorous in our two games, and I won twice due to the games timing out after 3 days.
Lame.
Anyway, I'm sort of in a lull right now since no one seems to want to add to their slate of games at present. I'll keep trying.

Outlasted Omni
*sigh*
Another win via time-out.
You guys have to stay on top of your games. 3-days per move is generous even with an extremely busy schedule. Even supposing you had a big business trip or a vacation, you have the ability to postpone games.
In other words, there's no excuse short of:
"I was in a coma, dickhead!"
"I was kidnapped and held hostage by Colombian mercinaries, asshole!"
Etc, etc....

I've realised that this is apparently the maximum image size photobucket allows you to put up for free nowadays. If someone can recommend me a better free image hosting site, I'll put this table up in full size so you can read it properly.
I usually use ImageShack. They do have limits on image size, but they are very generous limits --- it has to be under 5 megabytes in size for non-paying users. 5 megabytes is big.

Who else do I have to get defeated by?
I don't know who is left for me to lose to, I haven't kept track. I guess whoever I haven't played yet can just challenge me.

Re: Win for Hyro
I won't try to find a real excuse, I'm working 70h a week this summer and I completely forgot about our game ... :S
