The game of Awari has been solved: with perfect play, the game always results in a draw.
Personally, I wouldn't trust a game in which playing a perfect game was rewarded with losing. That just means an element of uncertainty was inserted somewhere along the line, and then it's no longer a game of skill, but of chance.
Let's keep in mind that this is the event of some realizm gamers finding Adobe Atmosphere and remaking their favorite maps. Don't start expecting innovation from a scene that has set gaming back years, and is singularly responsible for my not playing Team Fortress 2 right now.
Oh, so Mother Nature needs a favor? Well maybe she should have thought of that when she was besetting us with droughts and floods and poison monkeys! Nature started the fight for survival, and now she wants to quit because she's losing. Well I say, hard cheese. 4F17
Dynamix didn't exactly 'go under'. They were profitible in fact; it's just that when Vivendi bought Sierra, they decided that it'd be even more profitable to not pay Dynamix anymore, and keep all the Tribes 2 sales money for themselves. Hurray for quarterly earnings reports!

I wish there was a band called Uzi Nissan. I'd totally be into them.
