Also, 1 small tweak in German NCM to swap a fig and tac between Ukraine and W Germany. I can make the edit on Japans turn
2013 - AAG 40 League

3b and 3c are still issues though? Matt, if 3b is still true and you see the rocket result before choosing the next one, then it’s not fair for the attacker to roll them in Triple A like you did. :-)
I meant 2b and 2c, etc, not 3
-
regarding 1b, there is almost nothing to my worksheet. I have a cell where I put in the amount of IPC’s I have, and a cell that adds up the IPC’s of the items I am planning to purchase. Normally when I have damage on my facilities, I enter them as a purchase item. If I have >10 damage on a major and I want to repair it, I put in the # of IPC’s it will take to get the damage down to 10. Then I enter the cost of each item I want to buy as 1 more than normal, for the damage.
Holy hell, that’s EXACTLY how I think of it!
10 DMG to a major complex means Infantry cost 4 IPC and armor cost 7 IPC (cost of the unit +1 to repair the complex just enough to build said unit.)
Interesting that the two of us think the same on that. lol.

Regarding submarines. I can understand that there situations in which you have to roll on the forum. Mainly because of the size of the battles. However do you want to enforce the rule that we always roll these battles on the forum? Even when the OOL is clear and it doesn’t matter for the outcome of the battle and both players don’t mind using TripleA?
A good question. Â No, I do not want to make any unnecessary rules. Â Players need to use good judgement.
To be honest, it is still my opinion that all dice should be rolled using the in house dicey for a few reasons:
1) We can enforce the rules
2) I don’t have to wait for someone to forward the MARTI rolls to me, since they are obvious in the thread
3) I don’t have to worry about dice results getting “lost” in the ether, they’re all there and no one has the power to delete them except certain mods and a specific site founder
4) Abattlemap is by far the superior program to tripleA and yes, I did finally get tripleA to work on my main computer and no that does not change my opinion of it, and w.o. tripleA you are needing another dicey anyway.I won’t FORCE the league to switch back to a superior program and dicey. I might be evil, but I’m not THAT evil. :P But on the flip side of that coin, when in doubt, you can always use the inhouse dicey to solve the problem. (I do this a lot when I need to reboot my computer and I am waiting for someone to give me intercept orders. I assume no interceptors, roll the battle and if they change their mind, I redo it using the house dicey and make them edit the map!)

Regarding establishing a thread with links to my various documents - that is a great idea, but I do not have the capability (nor does Jenn) to sticky a thread. If I make a regular thread it will just get buried quickly anyway. Thanks for the good idea, though
Daaaavvvvvveeeeee. Jeeeeeeeeeennnnnsssssseennnnn……
Yeah, I’m going to send him a PM now
G’luck with that. :P

To be quite honest, I think a lot of people think this way. I wouldn’t call it very unusual.
-
I find logical behavior in humans to be unusual at best, unheard of at worst. :P Where’s skynet when you really need a good dictatorship anyway?

Skynet wasn’t being logical either. Even if the terminator managed to kill Sarah Connors, then the future it came from would not be changed. If that future would have been changed, then the terminator would never be send back in the first place. So rather the killing of Sarah Connors would have created a different future. A future in which John Connors never existed and Skynet would never have had to send back a terminator in the first place. However this would have been a different Skynet.

I like the way you think, Soulblighter
I have observed that all time travel movies break down and have inconsistent assumptions and facts, but they are still my favorite kind of story.

You should watch the anime called ‘Steins Gate’. I am certain you would enjoy it. Ofcourse you should watch it with English Sub and in Japanese.

Jenn,
Where are the league standings as the race tightens up and closes in?
We need it!Arathorn

You COULD download the rankings spreadsheet as an Excel spreadsheet and do a sort by win %, but I will take care of it tonight. Stay tuned.
-
I COULD do it, and remember to count the games that are not included in the rankings ;) lol
-
I did remember. Behold the official league standings (on a separate worksheet in the rankings spreadsheet - see tabs at bottom)
If Me1945 wins one more game and one other person (we have 2 at 2-0) goes 4-0, I will be out of the top 8 by win %, at 23-3 (.885)
Our #1 and #2 are 4-0 and 5-0, respectively. But Jenn never officially updated the original rule of minimum 4 games, that I am aware of.
Hank and Arathorn, if you want to be in the top 8 playoff to be named league champion for the year, you might want to take this up with Jenn…… I’m not ruling on it because of conflict of interest.

I thought there was talk of making the minimum games higher? I don’t know whatever happened with that discussion, but it happened at one point. I would be in favor of making a higher min game to get in. Although it’s hard to change things in the final stretch like this as it wouldn’t exactly be fair to bmnielsen and toanca. Although it doesn’t seem to be fair to someone like Hank, Arathorn, etc to get bumped by someone who has a 1/3 of the games under their belt and those against weaker opponents.
-
Which is exactly why I was squawking about it early in the year
-
The good news is this will never happen again. Next year will be by the rankings system and higher minimum # of games and possibly a requirement that you’ve played a couple games against tier1/2

@Cmdr:
@Cmdr:
3 - You must play at least 4 games against 3 different opponents to be eligible for the playoffs.
Amended: You must play at least 8 games against 6 different opponents to be eligible for the playoffs.3a (Major League) - If 4 or more players end up playing 14 games (in the league) or more then a separate grouping and playoff schedule will be created for these players.
Minor League (8 to 13 games played)
Major League (14+ games played)
Amended: 8 players to replace 4 or more players.Since this was the rule, in 2012, would there be issue in restoring it for 2013? It is in answer to the 20 game +/- 5 that was suggested earlier.
-
That was on Page 23 of the this thread, I can continue combing it to see if I see other official rulings as per playoffs. However, I need to jet now and will need to continue later.
-
There is still the four game minimum. We increased the number of games you can play against the same opponent, but I do not remember a discussion about increasing the minimum number of games to qualify for the playoffs.

Though it was written in 2012, it is actually the rules for this league year. November 2012 started the 2013 league.
So if that was in fact written, then Jenn made an 8 game minimum for playoffs.
