Interestingly enough, in my last 10 games of Builders, I have NEVER been first. But I won all of them :lol:.

I personally prefer to be last because it is far easier to "snipe" the game and to rush to 17 points without other players being able to counteract. Even if the first players rush to the good workers, the game is about matching constructions with workers. I have been able to win against opponents that took the masters with lesser but better invested workers.

Here we are four years later and I went to look at your record. You never once played this version of builders. You played a different version you won at.

Well, it doesn't agree with the "I won them all" part either :D
