I enjoyed watching Dave's game; it was a pleasure. The only minor annoyance is the floating "faces" on the stream image, but that seems to be the only drawback.
Reddi, congratulations! I don't know why, but I was rooting for you in the final.
New here? I'm Roha — want a quick tour?
Congratulations!
It's not very common for a final to have a situation where you can confidently say that if the players had swapped their starting positions on turn 111, the same player would have won. And we even know exactly how :)
What happened there?
Reddy captured Dave's main castle and brazenly started digging near it. If it were his own castle, he would have dug it out in a week. Considering that there was a computer-controlled Conflux nearby... well, the rest is obvious.
Who was the strongest at that moment? And why did Dave allow him to capture the castle and then just dig around it...?

Congratulations to Reddy on the victory! But for me, the winner remains dave_hun. The game's RNG was clearly not on his side - he got minimal Dragon Utopias with a terrible set of artifacts, minimal Griffin Conservatories. Reddy had the exact opposite - large Griffin Conservatories, decent Dragon Utopias. Yet despite all this, whoever would win the FB was still in question! If the RNG had been slightly better, or if Chain Lightning had at least hit in the FB, then we would be congratulating Dave) But a game is a game! Thanks to all participants and organizers of this tournament!
Reddy captured Dave's main Castle and brazenly started digging near it. If it had been his own Castle - he would have dug it up on week 1. Considering there was a Conflux computer nearby... well, the rest is clear..
