Shame that it will be the last one. I just started :<.

Rjiuk3566 108 vs 158 Automata - https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=593352486

First time as Bescods and generally I'm new to Gaia so I lost by a lot, but I'll learn

Bescods are challenging to play, especially if you are new to the game. I hope you don't mind me saying, the on-going benefits of the economy track are lost if you go to level 5 before the last round. Thank you for taking part, and enjoy future games.

Score lists updated.

As previously mentioned, this is the last solo challenge from me. Thanks to Mogri and Kayvon for a fantastic implementation of the game, with different map options, as well as auction and automa of the week and month features.

Two excellent Bescods games topped the November lists. Mallumän is the well deserved champion of what was a tough challenge, with danuer13's score against the Ultoma definitely worthy of note. As always, thanks to everyone who took part - and who has ever taken part.

For almost three years, you've been the driving force behind Gaia Project's solo community. Thank you for the tremendous effort! It's been great to see the GP community gather together every month.

Kudos, montybojangles.

Just saw this tradition has ended, when I was checking for decembers challenge. Stopping by to say thank you montybojangles for investing the time in offering this challenges to us and thank you for always having some encouraging words for newbys and professionals alike!

Thanks @montybojangles for this very long solo series. I especially enjoy that all the old challenges are still playable and that we still have access the the best games so that we can see how to improve.

A big shout-out also to @Kayvon for this amazing implementation. I was concerned that the "random" map solo challenges would not be playable anymore, but it looks to me that the seed number also handles the map setup. Thanks a bunch for this amazing implementation.

Thank you montybojangles and the players. I have not completed a game yet but I'm going to watch replays of these solo games to learn.

Thank you very much montybojangles!

I have now subscribed to all 3 members channels on YouTube. I very much appreciate this! I'm slowly getting myself used to understanding the game and this will help a lot. I'm still at the 'press a button and see what happens' stage of not really knowing why I'm doing something. But these videos will definitely help me understand why or why not to make certain moves.
