Just as long as its not like this Jeff
fuck, I RAGE QUIT watching after just 4 minutes at that fuck counting out the range of his spider moves for about the twelvth fucking time, even though it was the same every fucking time and he could have looked at that twenty times before they even got started. I mean you can fucking count the hexes in the youtube preview image showing on this post, and then add in the extra hexes for the 2 steps up to the wall.
Also skip ahead to ONE HOUR in and the other guy, maybe put to sleep by spider guy still has almost all his fucking units on their start spaces. yeah, I know "wait then fire". whatever. They may as well have played on a 20 x 4 single hex strip with a 2 hex wide wall in the middle
are all tournaments like that, it seemed like they didnt even have an individual clock at all
Sitting and watching someonen fuck around like that with their opening moves of a handful of identical figures on a map with 2 walls in the middle would be one thing, but watching him poke his fingers around over and over to solve the fucking differential equation it apparently required would send me into total NERDRAGE meltdown.
I am obviously not cut out for tournament play, and I shall be investing in a chess clock if my kids start adopting the calculating finger approach.
