Was playing a game today with riccardo and Drucifer85 today and in light of all the conversations regarding favors and whatnot that have been occuring recently I thought I'd post this.

In the particular game I was playing riccardo had flagged 2nd and Drucifer85 had flagged 4th. Despite their flags I had a good shot at taking first place. But I had to go through riccardo before I could reach the player who was in 1st. After I tore riccardo apart (he was down to two disconnected lands) and had to begun to fight the first place player Drucifer, despite his flag and inaction up to this point jumped into to save riccardo. This move had no benefit to him during this game as he had already flagged 4th and I guaranteed him this position. In case there was any doubt about Drucifer85's intention to recieve a favor for it later on (riccardo is a high ranking player after all) the game was followed by this conversation:

riccardo: ty guys ... I owe you
Drucifer85: yes you do, lol
Simmo3k: gg
Drucifer85: gg
Simmo3k: remember it ric :P
Trendkiller has left
riccardo: I will
Drucifer85 has left
riccardo: It was a bit more than I have done for you in the past, but we have helped each other more than once ....
Simmo3k: true, it always pays to be friendly now and again
Simmo3k: i was down 1400 pts earlier today
Simmo3k: could have done with a little help myself
Simmo3k: got screwed a couple of times
riccardo: I think I was in a couple of those games, but in no position to help myself let alone you ....
ching-a-ling is here
Simmo3k: anyway man, gtg
Simmo3k: take care


Anyway I usually don't get too wrapped up in this sort of thing but this particular interest was extremely frustrating obviously.
