You play your own scenarios in ladder play?

Good Hunting.

Hell man, he sent me the set up and I said, "We play for fun?"

Cargol says, "we play Ladder game".

He knows my stuff is balanced.

He's a great player and a friend.

ROFL!!!!!! Well, Hell Man, play him!

I sometimes play my own scenarios but usually play them so much during playtesting I get tired of them. I would never play them in a ladder game because I know too much about them.

That may not be a good answer though, since I 've seen POS design scenarios for a tournament where he takes on all comers and though he made the scenario he was sometimes beaten.

It just seemed odd that you would take a challenge for your own work.

Is that common here at the Blitz? Or this is a rare occasion? I have on rare occasions, like you, accepted challenges from friends but we don't post them on the ladder. I feel I have too big an advantage. Just like I don't write reviews for my own scenarios. I've played them more than anybody but I let others decide.

In any event, good luck with the game. Let me know how it turns out. I'm interested to see if he can beat you at your own game.

Good Hunting.
