When it comes to beach volleyball - I don't keep score and don't care who wins (unless one team is particularly hot and I want to see them again in the finals!)
Gad but we're a sexist bunch of bums, aren't we?

Last year we put an indoor volleyball team together at work and went to the World Police and Fire Games here in Adelaide. They needed some volunteers at one point to help with scoring etc.... "Unfortunately" I had to score the Swedish women's team.

I gotta say, when you're watching a game THAT hard, it's difficult to keep track of the score...

Let me guess the score of the winning team:
38DD ?

Well - the stall game finally caught up with Robert - he missed this turn.
I'm not surprised or sorry....

Know how you feel! Can't disagree with anything you have said.....
Someone must be tucking into him. 15 turns ago he and I had the same number of planets, but now he is 30 behind.
I also see you have re-discovered how to build starbases

One of those bases wasn't built - it is ex-Bird!!!
I love ground pounds!
Captured a HYP probe from him this turn too.

Mmmm yes, very, very nice. You must have enjoyed that. I hyped onto what I thought was one of the birdman's planets last turn to rga him, only to find a cyborg starbase. I might let it live and wait for it to build some ships
