Captain of the Watch

Farsightedness: The Butterfly Effect states that a butterfly that flaps its wings in Malaysia could cause a typhoon in British Columbia. So too could minor variations in one part of the board affect play across the board. The Captain of Watch asesses the board for all possible impacts - both immediate and long-term.

Far more inventive than mine.

I'll have to have a good look at old S&G songs for inspiration

To the tune of 59th Street Bridge Song -

Slow down, you move too fast
Forgot to write, the deadline's past
and they're - kicking down your back door
you're losing dots, and feelin' stu-pid!
NM-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

Hello sharp knife, how'd you get there
In my back from out of no-where
guess I should have turned in moves
doo da doo doo, feelin' stu-pid!
NMR-R-R-R-R, feelin' stupid...

I've got no blocks to move, no promises to keep
I'm backstabbed and bleeding and lost all my fleets
let-the-g-m-re-place-me-there's-no-chance-for-me
all is hopeless, I'm feelin' stu-pid

da da da, da da-da-da-da da da da - NMR-R-R-R-R. Da da da da da da da
da da - NMR-R-R-R....

Smile

OK, to the tune of El Condor Paso.....

I'd rather submit orders by email.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.
I'd rather moves worked than they fail.
Yes I would.
If I only could,
I surely would.

CHORUS
A dot, I'd rather gain a dot
Maybe a neutral that's here and gone
My forces get bounced all around
Who'd give the world
Its saddest sound,
Its saddest sound?.... the nmr

I'd rather have a solo than a draw.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.

I'd rather take the dots, and gain some more
Yes I would.
If I only could,
I surely would.
