Hey ho, let’s play!

@Gargantua:

I can already hear Allweneedistank’s next opponent singing this song.

This is not a very loving song. We prefer something with harp when we roll through allied capitals.

Hank the Franc!
Hank the Frank!

G, is there a clear direction now on how to bid for sides here? Early on you assigned which team would be which side, but I thought I saw chatter about that being changed.

If there is there is a bid now, people need to be bidding for the Allies, ala AA50, because negative bids are just jacked.  You can find the most worthless, remote units to delete and it gets pretty screwy.  Most people are of the impression that the Axis are slighly favored, so the bid should be for the Allies.

@Gargantua:

Panther has fallen on his sword - ad the Atlanta Axis are out.

I believe i covered that in my last update?

We didn’t quit! We dropped into a coma waiting for everyone to play.  Going to have to re-read the rules over Xmas break to brush up for round 3.

I believe Gargantua meant Transatlantic Alliance. Similar sounding names, so the confusion is not surprising.

Official theme song for all round 3 games…

I hate the game I’m currently playing

Americans attack with 3 bombers, 4 fighters and 1 tactical_bomber
                Japanese defend with 1 carrier, 1 destroyer, 3 fighters and 1 tactical_bomber
                Units damaged: 1 carrier owned by the Japanese
                Japanese win with 1 carrier and 3 fighters remaining. Battle score for attacker is -68
                Casualties for Japanese: 1 destroyer and 1 tactical_bomber
                Casualties for Americans: 3 bombers, 4 fighters and 1 tactical_bomber

This was a 90% chance battle.

And here’s another

Americans attack with 1 bomber
                Japanese defend with 1 destroyer
                Japanese win with 1 destroyer remaining. Battle score for attacker is -12
                Casualties for Americans: 1 bomber

68+12 = 80

[Gargantua]

• Casualties for Japanese: 1 destroyer and 1 tactical_bomber

• Casualties for Americans: 3 bombers, 4 fighters and 1 tactical_bomber

And I thought I was having it bad…

There’s another one

They attacked 2dd 1cr with 1fig 1bmb and they won, with a 22% chance of winning. They even said our fleet scored above average (?!?!?).

I’m not having fun in that game, I might leave the tournament, 'cause Canuck is also being an asshole, like dice weren’t enough.

That is being a bit rough, no? I haven’t been reading all of the posts but it doesn’t seem it is that bad, no?

I will speak with Canuck and I will ensure that he ends the “chatter” or dialog. I hope that remedies the situation? No need to pack things up and leave!

[Gargantua]

LOL…

Oh the songs they are going to sing about the Tournament of extra death and pain…

[Bjergmose]

Had to go and read Canuck´s ranting…always looking for new ways to trash talk  :evil:
Must say I was a wee bit disappointed. Not what noll cracked it up to be.

What´s the word…rhymes with fly maybe  :-o

[Gargantua]

Die!

I guess you didn’t read all. One cane be a subtle asshole, it doesn’t have to say bad words. But either me and my team mate didn’t like some sentences. Apparently we even scored above average rolls

He can’t help hit. He’s Canadian.

Noll, I think it’s because you are spanish. :)

[allweneedislove]

Garg, is the 2 month per round maximum still in place?

with the first round completed today does the 2nd round have a deadline of November 7th?

[allweneedislove]

Garg,
I recommend that you implement a standardized bidding system to speed up the number of emails before a game starts discussing how they will bid.

Rules such as
-bids can be used to purchase units pregame and can be saved and added to a powers starting ipcs
-bids can only be placed in territories or szs that contain another unit of the same power
-if the teams are going to be bidding up or bidding down. (I prefer bidding up)
-if there is a limit to the number of units that can be placed in a territory.
-if the bid can be given to any power or must be for a specific power such as all bid ipc must be used for ussr or all to Anzac.
-which team starts the bid such as which ever teams name is listed first on the bracket or, roll a die on the server, or my favourite whoever starts the thread first starts the bidding.
-or just leave it up to the teams to figure it out themselves how they want to decide teams. So teams can do goofy things like"we will play allies if you give us a Russian battleship"
