Glad to know, especially so I don’t have to decide how long to keep the signup window open. And secondly, glad to know I won’t have a long painful loss to you in the playoffs.
Have a happy new year and keep on enjoying A&A

@me1945 And are you in??

Oh! There’s the private message. Me is in! New Year’s Eve drama!!
-
Playoff signup sheet is now updated for current rankings. Could change again before finalizing tomorrow and the brackets are set, but some of you might be interested to see where things stand now.
-
@gamerman01 with me1945 claiming that game, @axis-dominion is also eligible to join us. He and I had a draw earlier which gets him to 6 games. I’ve messaged him in case he is interested.
-
Thanks guys.

@farmboy He must be rusty! :grinning:

Hey all of you fabulous here! Thanks for your messages and effort!
I have decided to claim this one due to inactivity (and with decent odds) and join the playoffs for both BM and OOB!

(Well, it is 2023 already in Europe, but should be in time still?)
-
Well, that puts me out of the main playoff then!
Good to see a full bracket for OOB.

uh, what does that mean? I have not intended to take someone else’s place!! I am also fine with playing only either BM or OOB
-
@pacifiersboard it’s all good. Simon just means that he drops out of the top eight. But he can still play in the playoffs and you joining in isn’t pushing anyone out

No trouble.
You have just played that much better than me and earned a higher place.
-
@farmboy Ah, right, that was the whole point of notating the draw game in the rankings.
I don’t think it’s OK for me to hold things open since everyone’s signing up by the deadline, but if I hear from him really soon… that could be arranged given he’d be the #1 seed in the playoff. Anyone heard from him since earlier this year?
-
@gamerman01 yeah. I thought it was worth reminding him but if he hasn’t posted yet, it makes sense to just go ahead.
-
Thanks for both posts - looking over the signups almost everyone who’s eligible for top 8 in each version has signed up (we all know Trulpen’s down unfortunately), so I’ll get things launched.
-
The playoff brackets and matchups are done
Time to start your engines!
Many will get to play someone they’ve never played before - the bracket decides!
Exciting stuff. Have fun and be a good sport!Brackets are in a separate sheet in the standings spreadsheet. You may start immediately.
-
In the balanced mod, 2nd bracket, both Sovietishcat and Avner get “byes” for the first round due to their #1 and #2 status.
EVERYONE else who signed up can play now
-
Isnt it a litte lame to have a sepeeate bracket with ABH and dawgoneit?
Isnt it better to have a play in game between 7 amd 10 for 7 seed and 8 and 9 for 8 seed?
Or ask the people involved. I would see little motivation personally to participate/compete in a bracket of 2.
-
I know. It HAS been done before (last year)
Hopefully ABH and dawgoneit don’t mind, some players don’t.We’ve also done play-in games before, but that affects everyone in the bracket, slows the whole bracket down. We still have 2 brackets from the 2021 playoffs undone as you know. Or did I miss the result between you and cat?
So I’d rather have a bracket of 2, or else have 2 of the 10 players say they’re fine with retracting their signup, than to have 8 players slowed down, and the #1 and #2 seed having to wait quite awhile for others to see who is the #7 and #8.
Plus… with the OOB playoff contenders ranging from Myygames at 6.00 to our beloved Dawg at 2.50, frankly the #1 vs the winner of the play-in game (and the #2) would not be competitive. I don’t want the #1 and #2 waiting several weeks for a non-competitive game. GAAA I didn’t want to have to say that.
Do you have any other solution? I don’t want to ask for 2 players to drop out. This is blunt also, but the rules could provide that only the top 8 for each game get a playoff, and nobody else gets an organized playoff. But we’ve had provisions for as many players as possible to get gripping playoff action.

I almost forgot -
Everyone,
The higher seed has the right to make the first bid, or to defer.
