    You mean my blood-curdling monkey shrieks? Evidently you were too scared to follow what I was saying. It's understandable...

    Hmm, yes, I was so scared that I fell about the place laughing. Odd reaction but, as you say, very understandable.

    Tincow has a voice!? How unexpected.

    A firework display. Humph. I have seen better ones - no pretty coloured lights, and timing explosions to music has been standard here for a decade - but I suppose it was a passable effort and one should not expect too much from you ... people. :froggy fans herself and waits for the next act to arrive:

    You may upload more videos in order to save me the onerous chore of watching them in-game. Load times are a waste of my precious time; someone else should endure them for me.

    Out of curiosity, how would we go about recording/uploading commentary if we wanted to do so?

    I would know this, but I spent all of my time, uh, practicing. Yeah, that's it.

    A great video, TinCow - excellent.

    I love the way you also demonstrate your superiour knowledge of the Japanese culture and language:

    Singular: Ninja; Plural: Ninjae

    For "Ninja", as the educated people know, is obviously an old word of Latin origin and it is clear what the plural should be.

    I sent the cowardly coward 'khaan one entire pm, yet he apparently refuses to answer. Probably because he is a cowardly coward who is also a coward.

    I will meet 'khaan on the battlefield probably Wednesday or Thursday evening.

    He admitted he is a coward and he begged me to bribe him and to play only loser loses games, which I refused, of course. Apparently, the weakling feeds his peasants every week. Bah. I've told my peasants that the strong should start eating the weak, so that only über elite peasants will appear on the battlefield on my side.

    I wish my opponent no luck at all, a failing internet connection for the entire week so that he has to give forfait and a very painful headache which causes his eyes to hurt so that he hardly sees his screen when fighting me. I also wish myself good luck and many heroic victories.

    After 3 battles of wonderful ineptitude, truly fulfilling the tournament spirit of "no skills, no rules, no honour", including a long discussion about how we couldn't move our cannons in a cannon fight and a fair bit of underhand cheating on my part, I have silenced the monkey's mewing 2-1. Who's next?

    Here are the replays so everyone can see how you disgraced the org by bringing ninja to a rocket fight! The smuggled illicit ninja won the first fight for therother.

    Then in the second battle (which was to be cannons and cavalry) we realised quickly that cannon cannot be moved. Luckily I brought more horses to that fight which won the day for me. My smuggled illicit ninja didn't get in on the action...

    In the third deciding fight, a naval battle, my admiral was perplexed at how ineffective his strategy of sailing upwind into direct cannon fire turned out to be...

    This is not the end for the monkey - I will retreat to my cave, make sacrifices to my dark gods and sharpen my monkey hammer in preparation for my inevitable glory against Generalhankerchief...
