Catch the Thief [Concluded]

Understood. :yes:

Night at the Museum: Turn 17

Another exit locked it seems...


E - Exit
O - Pillar
SS - Security Switchboard
:2cents: - Ancient coins
:bobby: - pevergreen
:bobby2: - Askthepizzaguy

PIZZA MOVES UP AND LOCKS IT!!!

Then we win, yes?

I didnt know we could lock exits. we shoulda done that beforehand.

You probably still have to find the thief, the lock probably takes him a turn to unlock giving you a chance to get to him.

Interesting game. Also similar to scotland yard.

So... what happens if i stay on my exit, atpg moves between his... we win..thief cant escape...

Yes, if ATPG moves up and locks the exit you two will win. :yes:

No they don't. They haven't noticed him so far and I doubt they will in the future. :laugh4:

So we win this turn...

I move up and lock the door.

I assume that ATPG would indeed move up and thus Policemen win!

Night at the Museum: Turn 18

Just as ATPG close the last exit our thief, FactionHeir activates one of the Alarm systems!

Double whammy.

Bad luck FH.

Well played though, what was your route? You avoided being detected very well. Those traps should have gotten you sooner...

I'd be interested to see Factionheir's moves each turn.

I made one step mistake during the game (because I didn't know where I was and thought I was elsewhere) which cost me my victory. Otherwise I would have reached the first locked exit 1 turn before ATPG.

Hey, now I don't feel so bad about asking pevergreen to move left inexplicably. :laugh4:

FH's moves during the game.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

FH disabled alarms systems on turn 2 and 4.
Turn 7 he was on the same square where the coins were. On the next turn he took the coins and moved away.

Not bad.... correctly guessing where I thought the logical spots to put the alarms would be.

Apparently, FactionHeir, we think very much alike in the strategic sense. Nicely done.

Thanks, I just figured there'd be no other place to put em. Though I was somewhat concerned about alarms at the top exit as pever wasn't really guarding it, which is why I didn't escape via that route (besides realizing that even if I did, pever would get there faster than I - but he didn't move much at first)

Mistake visible at T5, that shouldve been diagonal, not just right.
