29403 picked 2.

See what I mean...

fawk picked 1.

BOOM!!!!

Heh, out first square. What was behind the bomb? It was a new square called Ctrl+Alt+Left. No prizes for guessing what that does.

Woe betide those who didn't vote for me in The President's Lounge. ONE ****ING VOTE, DAMMIT!!!

This round is completely pointless. And you know it.

Hoohah2x2sday next, if he's here.

It looks like this round's almost over. jinxed_07 won't come back but I have to give him his requisite three days. This round was supposed to actually last for some time but I guess this is a different sort of pointlessness to what I was expecting. Damn.

http://www.nmaps.net/user/999_Springs · Postby **999_Springs** » 2010.06.22 (20:38)

408 Error.

... 29403 gets a win bonus of £160,000... MULTIPLIED BY ZERO!!! And you know what THAT makes!

Well that was the most pointless round I have ever seen, helped in a big way by stupid random.org which decided to shove all the inactive people into one round. This wasn't how I had intended it to turn out in any way. I had filled the board with silly squares and I was just waiting for everyone to squirm as they pick them one after the other. Turns out that wasn't the case.

Pfft, Round 16 (a NORMAL round, hopefully...) starts tomorrow. This stupid physics coursework is getting on my nerves. I'VE JUST FINISHED MY AS LEVELS WHY DO I HAVE TO DO STUPID COURSEWORK!?!!??

Sorry for the delay, physics coursework.

We're running out of players. UnknownKirbyMan has been downgraded to inactive. If we lose two more then we won't have enough players to continue. GRRR.

- 29403
- bufar
- Pikman
- EdoI
all have 48 hours to place their bombs on the board. And fawk places the blammo. Go.

Slightly generous board, this. Perhaps that'll make up for all those times you bombed yourselves out in earlier rounds.

*Insert board here*

Pikman's bomb is randomly placed.

First pick starts game. Go.

http://nmaps.net/user/bufar · Postby **bufar** » 2010.07.02 (23:30)

I'll take 16.

http://www.nmaps.net/user/999_Springs · Postby **999_Springs** » 2010.07.03 (23:28)

Postby **Pikman** » 2010.07.06 (20:28)

Oh wow, I'm in a round without knowing at all.

Square 1.

http://www.nmaps.net/user/999_Springs · Postby **999_Springs** » 2010.07.08 (19:37)

Square 1.

Square root of 1 is... Surely the most pointless square the world's ever seen.

29403 picked 4.

Just... wow.

Everyone else in the round gives away 2% of their money to you. Even with your joke multiplier, since percentages aren't affected by AVx. Who says you couldn't do anything with a zero multiplier...

I get to go twice in one game? I can't remember the last time this happened!

I'll take #10.

Right. I feel now's the time to introduce all you fellow RTaB players to the phenomenon known as RTABLIVE. You can read about it here. It's basically like RTaB... but... LIVE. On IRC. That's basically all there is to it.

If you feel you want to give it a shot then just tell me and most likely I'll invite you into The President's Lounge in time for the start next week, if I think you're active enough. Three spots left.

Go.

(Disclaimer: I didn't write that post, that was fawk who did all the editing. If you find any howlers then tell HIM.)

http://nmaps.net/user/guy_zap · Postby **fawk** » 2010.07.10 (06:12)

Shush, you. But yes, JOIN RTAB LIVE! For the next week we have the power for bringing as many in as we like, and it'd be a great opportunity to get existing RtaB players in RtaBLive.

http://nmaps.net/user/ · Postby **bhz** » 2010.07.10 (20:06)

I will join this for the next round. I will also join RTaB Life.

http://www.nmaps.net/user/999_Springs · Postby **999_Springs** » 2010.07.10 (20:12)

Ok, you'll be in next round.

Warning: It might not start after the 21st when you said you were going to leave.
