Fi Thorne

Fi Thorne Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I've just started playing one of the custom games to practise. For the real one, do we just keep playing until we have reached 250 points?

Andy SC

Andy SC @Fi - you keep going until you've reached 250. The game will finish when you reach 250. It's all about doing it as quickly as possible here so ending round early is probably a very good strategy for quickness.

Sam Cappleman-Lynes

Sam Cappleman-Lynes @Andy which comments section should we post "DONE" in? The comments here?

At least one attempt has happened so far where the "DONE" message was put into aptochat: https://www.apterous.org/chat.php?base=1691126849

Andy SC

Andy SC It should be done here.

Andy SC

Andy SC But I'll allow that attempt as it was probably not to the clearest. It's just if it's done here, I can at least get notified here about it.

Ian Volante Just realised that I most likely typed MP RUN ATTEMPT in the game chat rather than the main chat. The effect is the same hopefully.

Andy SC

Andy SC @Ian - Don't worry I've counted it anyway

Ian Volante

Ian Volante I assume it was crap enough not to be suspicious.

Andy SC

Andy SC The fact that you posted done above enough. Just assumed you forget the starting command but had full intention to do so.
