Came Back after a 9 to Zero Climb to Win
Things looked dire at the start of today's game, with four points lost in the first round, and another four in the second. Down eight to zip, our opponent's gained another point to make it 9 to zero. At this point, Maury (on the team with Zero points mind you) offered terms for his opponent's surrender - which were promptly ... rejected. So be it, as the next few rounds whittled down that lead until we overtook and beat them 13 to 9. A very satisfying victory. The strategy laid out by Sam really aided in our come back as he carefully noted when to shoot, and most important, what path to take in pointing, which was expertly carried out by Maury for the win.
