G40 Tourney Discussion/question(s)


  • Yeah we did chew through the rounds. I always fight to the death, you never know what those dice will do next.


  • @Cmdr:

    To fill the missing spot, anyone who lost round 1 that wants to continue may PM me.  I’m not sure we have enough players for a redemption bracket so we may not have one.   I’ll collect the PMs, list out the constestants and figure out some way to D6 roll for who gets the spot. (Course, a D20 might be better, if only the site supported it!)

    First I would like to thank you Jenn for all the work you’ve put into this tourney, I know it’s been complicated with people not showing up and possible rule changes like Alpha 3.  You have even had to handle bids, rule questions, and even complaints.  Hosting a tournament like this is never easy but you have done a wonderful job.

    As a loser of round 1 I would prefer a redemption bracket if at all possible, if not I understand.  If there is just one open spot for a loser of round 1 to continue.  I would rather someone else receive that opportunity.

    Thanks again for your efforts and good luck with whatever you decide.

    A.P.B.:

    Any knowledge on the whereabouts on Game 6?

    Game 6:
    i rock - Allies
    vs
    Zcion - Won the bid with a bid of three (3) (infantry), Axis

    It looks like we may have to take 2 players that were unsuccessful in Round 1

    On Monday, 31 October 2011, I will look to take any number of round 1 losers or fresh blood to fill the roster for round 2.  I’d rather take the winners, but it seems we have a few missing players (most likely due to the new rule set being out and some players just not wanting to play Alpha 2 anymore.)

    Round 1 losers will have priority over fresh blood, due to “first come, first served” issues.  I just think it’s more fair for someone who was here and signed up to take priority over someone who just dropped in.

    If you have PMed me with a game update and it has not been updated yet, be assured I am getting to it.  I had a career fair last week and one this week, so I have been remarkably busy.  And yes, I am tired of teaching snot nosed brats who could care less if they know mathematics because they’re going to play {insert sport here} for the rest of their lives. /sigh.

    Jen, both LL and I don’t think we can continue.
    Our game only just started rd 2.  And its a little hard to devote time to learning G40 with the end of the league coming up.

    If two players wanted to pick up our game, that’d be fine, or I suppose someone will get a bye in rd 2.

    Sorry about that.  I’ll still be around as secondary Mod for the tourney.

    @NoMercy:

    When does Round 1 officially end?

    2359 hours on 31 October 2011, Central Standard Time which I think is GMT -6


  • Game 2:
    BigBadBruce- Won the bid with a bid of six (6) IPCs (submarine in SZ 113), Axis
    vs
    Zcion BigBadGoo - Allies

    Allies resign during USA combat phase #7.
    A very (like VERY) unlucky roll cause USA unable to take Rome…

    Recorded.  Yes that roll did suck for the attacker!

    We currently have 3 games unresolved.  A decision will have to be made by the end of the first round, so get your strategies in gear, time is short!  Round 2 starts (officially) as soon as I post the matchings on 1 November.

    Those who have lost that want to participate in round two, please PM me.

    I need war reports from games that are not yet closed.  Those would be games 1, 6 and 9.

    In your private message send me a link to your game.  Tell me what your plans are for the next few rounds and how you intend to win the game.  I will then go through and assign a “winner.”

    I also need to know which players from the redemption circle want to continue on with the tournament.  I’ll put together a list (like the one for signing up for the tournament) and throw dice to find out who gets to stay and recover.  Just so we can have a nice, pretty bracket system.

    ROUND ONE officially ends in 88 minutes.

    Do you need more information for my game or is pretty straight forward?

    @NoMercy:

    I would like to hear from your opponent.  Maybe he has a strategy that I cannot see that would influence my opinion. (I doubt it, but there’s a chance.)

  • 2007 AAR League

    Yep; sorry I meant to say do you need any more information from me; I totally understand waiting for information from my opponent.

  • '10

    Jennifer, when you get a chance, can you update the tourny bracket for round 2 please?  I think I am playing James, but want to make sure before we send in the bid.  Thanks

  • '18 '17 '16 '11 Moderator

    I’d like to go:

    Winner from Game 1 plays Winner of Game 2.

    Game 3 plays Game 4

    Etc.

    However, I need some extra bodies from Round 1 to fill the brackets.  That would mean I need 8 players total.
