NINE drained piles, nine achievements (6 Pile Drivers!)

...funny thing is, I only won by 17 points.  Seems pretty harmless at first glance.  Then you realize that there are NINE drained piles!  I also popped nine achievements including six Pile Drivers.  49 buys on last turn and 68 buys in last two turns.  Fun times.

To be fair, you would have won by 27 if you hadn't insisted on pile driving the curses on the last turn as well.

Nice comeback though.

Oh, but I DO insist!   8)  On the rare occasion it gets to that point, I prioritize popping an achievement over winning by more points.  If I can pile drive all 10 curses on the closing turn and still win, I'm doing it.

Eh, but you would have gotten different achievements (better one-turn score, also a total game score) if you didn't buy them.

That your opponent allowed you that many KC/GM/City buys is a bit sickening.
