Vulture, this has been a good tourney so far. Do your best to get these last games wrapped up so we can finish the next round.
I hate it when tournaments fizzle.
Only 4 players that have games outstanding have the potential of getting 22 points (which is the top 12 right now)
Dexter - 13 points with two games left
Filip von Izabelin - 8, but still has three games left
Moneymaxx - 15 with 1 game left
Ribster - 17 points with 1 game left
Those 4 are who need to finish to start round two
Colonel (and everyone else interested)
I've E-Mail remainders out to the players in the three remaining (active) games. I'd prefer them to finish, but if not I'll call the result myself, although I am loathed to take that step.
I'm currently on with designing the map for the next round. Although my tournaments and campaigns can take some time to complete, with the one exception (where I bit off more than I could chew), they have all been see through to the end.
Cheers
Vulture
Hang on.
I just checked the results and I have only been awarded points for a minor loss.
Huh? My opponent fails to start the game, I post about it here 30th of November, yet I only awarded a minor loss because "The umpire only became aware of it Feb" whilst other players are getting Totals for no shows?
This effectively puts me out of the competition via a game I had no chance to play and would have favored me to win as I was Allies ((8 Axis Victories, 24 Allied Victories, 2 Draws for that map )and as I said other players are getting TOTALS for no shows.
Sorry but I cant see how this is fair.
Fullhouse
I have readjusted the results to give you a Total. I think at the time I was frustrated that I had only become aware of this in Feb. To be fair, tournaments are easier to run when players give me regular updates. Anyway, the game is yours.
Cheers
Vulture
cheers vulture. excited about the next phase.
Vulture,
How many will advance to the next round? Inquiring minds want to know! Thanks, this has been great fun so far. Your efforts in making this happen have been outstanding.
Stndrtnfhr Out!
Guys
I'm after some feedback on my current thoughts for the next phase of the competition.
My ideas are as follows:
Split the players into three categories:
Cat 1 - Players who scored 21 +
Cat 2 - Players who scored 16 to 20
Cat 3 - Players who scored less than 16
Cat 1 players play 4 games in what I'm going to call Division 1
Cat 2 players play 4 games in what I'm going to call Division 3
Cat 3 players are (sadly) eliminated from the tournament.
After this next round of games the top 5 players in Division 1 with the top player in Division 2 go through to the final round of games.
Thoughts ?
Vulture
I think that sounds like a good idea. And I agree that it is time to thin the herd by sending the CAT3 players about their business. Glad to hear that this hasn't fizzled out.
Lord Bane
Sounds like a plan to me Vulture!

Like the idea. Will the games be played simultaneously or one after the after the other ?
I like the idea too!
Split the players into three categories:
Cat 1 - Players who scored 21 +
Cat 2 - Players who scored 16 to 20
Cat 3 - Players who scored less than 16
Cat 1 players play 4 games in what I'm going to call Division 1
Cat 2 players play 4 games in what I'm going to call Division 3
Cat 3 players are (sadly) eliminated from the tournament.
After this next round of games the top 5 players in Division 1 with the top player in Division 2 go through to the final round of games.
Thoughts ?
Vulture
(I assume division 3 is a typo and should be Div 2)
Are the Cat 1 players playing the 4 games against Cat 2 players? And Cat 2 players playing their 4 games against Cat 1 players?
I think that makes sense - rewards the Cat 1 for their higher points.
