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"

@ allweneedislove,

I tried to define a bidding procedure in our round2 match, here. Garg said this was indeed the correct way, so you can use it as well. It’s still only if both sides agree, else there should be a diceroll to determine sides.

Current state of tournament to my knowledge.

Congrats to Djensen and U-505 on their victory. They played a glorious Axis game of roughly fondling the Allies’ genitals.

Interesting that out of 20 completed games so far, 14 wins were for the axis side.  So with a growing sample of games, each played under the same conditions and with some more and less experienced players on each team, it looks like the axis side is twice as likely to win so far (i.e. 2 thirds versus 1 third).

Gargantua, do you know who we should be playing next?  It looks like the speedo/threats game never took off.

[eskander]

Vance, you guys should be up against the losing team of Game 20, Fighting Mongoose or Invisible Greens, which I don’t believe is decided yet.  Barring any admin changes by Garg, of course.

As for Little Threats and Speedo Hares, I don’t have an answer to that.  The game never started in their thread from a month ago it seems.  Someone should check on them. Allweneed? You have someone to pester.

Cool. thanks eskander

i have sent personal messages to all parties asking if they are still interested in/enjoying the tournament and still plan on playing.

[Vold]

I’m still in, everyone else seems to have dropped or disappeared.

Since the next round isn’t populated there’s no reason to call our game yet.

@allweneedislove:

Hello Gentlemen,

I noticed that you have started the thread for your 2nd round game.
http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=28074.0

but have not actually started or responded in over a month.
Is everyone still interested and enjoying the tournament?
Does everyone plan on continuing?

Kind regards,
allweneedislove

I’m in.  But Bunnies has been MIA for a few months, and LB hasn’t been on for a few weeks.  Minor Threat dropped out.

So if LB and I don’t hook up and do our game by the time the bracket ahead of us is populated, then LB will default and I’ll play the next bracket.

But that’s around away so LB has time.

You can proceed to the next round, I shall forfeit the game. The problem is I’m far to busy right now with real life to participate in the tournament. Good luck, Vold.

to win this tournament you will not have to actually win games, just hang around longer than everyone else.

[Vold]

at least that is something I do well

garg, vold, and clausiwitz’s idiot apprentices

due to Transatlantic Alliance Of Evil and little threats dropping from the tournament, both teams of speedo hares(vold) and clausiwitz’s idiot apprentices(cia) opponents’ have dropped from the tournament in the 2nd round.

instead of having both vold and cia sit around for 2 months, why not pair them up. then pair up the 2 dissolved teams.
so instead of two teams having a buy in the 2nd round, this would cause 1 team to get a buy in the 3rd round.

what do all parties think about this suggestion?

[Vold]

I’m OK either way.

[Gargantua]

thats a good idea - please do so Love!

Thanks for your help. :)

Love is now an official tournament moderator! Do what he says! :0
