I won a cribbage tournament!

Post by CaptainChewbacca »

I just won a 5-hour cribbage tournament! It was long, it was grueling, but I perservered!

I was only defeated once, and I beat her in the semifinals when we went up against each other again! The last match I skunked the other player.

Let it be known that CaptainChewbacca is the Cribbage champion of the StarDestroyer BBS!

Cribbage...

What was that again? I've heard it somewhere, but don't recall... Didn't it have to do with ice?

I remember playing that game with my sister. Fifteen two, fifteen four, and a double run makes eight. At least I think it does. It's been awhile.
Ah, memories...

You're thinking of backgammon. Cribbage is a card game, but you keep score with a board and pegs.

Many of the games were very close, I actually won two durring the pegging phase, instead of on laydown.

And Raxmei, fifteen two, fifteen four, and a double dun makes TWELVE. :P

What does backgammon have to do wih ice?

And I did say it's been a long time since I played cribbage. And I never really knew the rules very well to begin with. Louise got a lot of points from mugs.

And shouldn't this be in gaming?

I thought gaming was for Trek gaming. This is an oddball real-world topic.

Sorry about backgammon, I thought you said "DICE" LOL!

Seriously, though, anyone here play cribbage? My friends here at University tend to enjoy it.

I play on and off, normally at brass contests if there's not enough time between playing and results to go wandering.
