    I really was going to put in an order to run over to some treasure like a little girl, then realized that I could maybe potentially do it, then decided to try it, because it was way more awesome than running away like a little girl. Glad I did, in retrospect :)

    Werewolf SeGaTai feels his adrenaline fade from body as the yellow wizard darts through the portal. He boosts and follows through the portal. Seeing a giant magic door, he assumes his quarry is behind it and runs around the other side of the wall. There was the yellow wizard holding one of his treasures. Werewolf SeGaTai clawed the yellow wizard in the face in retaliation and then backed off as he felt himself losing control of his transformation. After a safe distance, he reverted back to his human form. Now without clothes, naked SeGaTai creates a wall of fire to keep himself warm in this suddenly cold maze.

    actual orders:
    Discard Extra Arms to boost for 3 (7MP),
    Move through Green portal to A8,
    Claw Yellow in the face,
    move to B9,
    discard werewolf form,
    Cast Wall of Fire at B9/C9.
    Wall of Fire | Neutral/Counter | LOS | Permanent | Fire : Create a 1 square long barrier of fire on a target border line between 2 squares. Any wizard passing through Wall of Fire suffers 4 magical fire damage. This spell is not an attack and cannot be evaded. OR counter any target Water spell as it is cast, in which case the two spells cancel each other out.
    Discard 0, Draw 2 cards

    El Skid is sick of this damn werewolf clawing and chasing him everywhere. Bleeding and hurt, he wonders if he'll be able to get this treasure back to his glyph...

    El Skid could still hear his enemy waiting for him right outside the door. If the werewolf was going to claw him, he would make it as hard on the creature as possible. El Skid wrapped himself in a fire cloak and burst through the door.

    There was a naked man.

    And a Wall of Fire.

    He laughed, Dispelled the Wall of Fire, and nodded to the naked man as he boosted through the portal and back to his Glyph.

    If the legends were true, dropping the treasure on his glyph would give him his second victory point and allow him to get out of this horrible, deathtrap of a maze. Taking a deep breath, he set the red treasure down and waited...

    "YELLOW has captured RED'S TREASURE!! YELLOW HAS BEEN AWARDED A SECOND VICTORY POINT!!! Yellow will be released from this maze, while those who are left will be condemned to THE PIT."

    El Skid sighed and finally relaxed, "Released from this maze. Finally....

    Wait.

    WAIT!

    This maze?!

    goddamnit"

    Welcome to the Pit, SeGaTai.

    I propose an alliance, for these reasons:
    1) To prove the dominance of the players of Game 4
    2) If we start fighting each other now, at the very beginning, there is no way either of us will outlast everyone else.

    I got incredibly lucky with this- you were both worthy opponents (GtC's treasure hiding was evil).

    GtC opening two moves were the best I have ever seen in a Wiz-War game. Period.

    It really surprised me when he went down as fast as he did. You guys were ruthless.

    I don't know what else I was supposed to do with my hand of cards, rarely got anything worth any energy and had more counter spells than I would ever need(probably why GtC didn't get any :) ) May have made more sense to go after Skid the way turn order worked out

    Well after careful analysis, I realized my fatal mistake: I went through that door, instead of waiting on the other side of it for the werewolf stuff to wear off. Had I been more patient instead of using up all my movement points just because I had them, this game might still be going on. :P

    EDIT: Well that, AND the fact the I apparently pissed off the deck gods or something.

    Didn't think about that GtC. That door + stone block would have kept you safe from the werewolf for a while.

    You could have also used all your movement points to go West and ended up just as close to a yellow treasure and still in relative safety.
