Default Just goes to show how a game of Mario Party can cange so easily...

... Especially in the last five turns.

Scenario:

Koopa's Seaside Soiree. I'm Yoshi against 3 computers -- DK, Luigi, and Peach. 50 turns. So we're going along... lalala... I get a good 5 stars while DK has 2, Peach has 1, and Luigi has 2... And it comes to the last 5 turns.

Well, Peach was in last place, so she got to stop the Last 5 Turns Roulette. And it lands on "All Red Spaces become Fortune Spaces". Well, I'm now at the second last turn of the game, and Luigi lands on the Fortune Space, bringing up a "Reversal of Fortune" game. So, Luigi plays the game, and gets DK on his "Giving" side. Next, I'm looking on the computer ignoring the game for a second, when I glance back and see Yoshi on the "Recieving" side. So I'm thinking "Woohoo I'm going to get something from DK..." when suddenly, the last pinball lands on "DK and Yoshi trade coins"



I had a whole 364 coins, while pathetic little DK only had 34. Now I'm stuck with 34 coins, in which luckily I can still get that star that I am by....

Ah well, I got sweet revenge on DK. He landed on a Bowser Space, and Baby Bowser came and stole 30 coins, and he bought a Super Mega Mushroom, leaving him with only 319 coins. :^O So I'm sure I'll still win, unless something else totally unexpected happens...

What are some of your Mario Party Turn-Around experiences?
