So it sounds like what is typed is what is done, and the map will be updated to match the text?
If you have to call me for a ruling, then what is typed takes precedence. I just have to make a determination and there’s only two choices, map or text, since text requires more thought process to perform (in my opinion) then I will assume that the map is a mistake and the text is what you really wanted to do.If you forget to modify the IPCs, but you typed how much you collected, you get what you typed?
You will get the lowest number of IPC whether that is text or map. Since it is your responsibility to check your money, then I cannot penalize your opponent for the incorrect value. It does not seem fair to me.If you forget to type a move, then the map showing the move is ignored, right?
Correct. If I have to be called in, then I will assume what you typed is what you wanted and anything that does not match on the map is a mistake.If you buy more then you can place (forgetting to repair damage, etc) then the unit is not placed, and the money is added to your collected income when the mistake is caught?
If you purchase more than you can place, the rule is (according to the manuals) any units you cannot place are returned to your tray and their value is added to your funds. If you mistakenly place too many units at a complex, I will have the money refunded.If you attack a country but forget to type “Dow” can the DOW be assumed?
Yes. Attacking someone’s military is assumed to be an act of war.What happens if you are typing your combat moves, and accidentally post it before you are finished (and it is clear that you were mid sentence, not just saying oh, now that I see what happened)? Can you continue the post? Can you redo the turn, permitting the enemy to choose the better of his two outcomes and the worst of your two outcomes for the posted section?
You may keep typing combat moves until you throw dice, Just as if you were standing at a table playing the game.Speaking of combats, I guess it is safer to type the moves out first, before typing any dice commands, that way intentions are clear and it would be fair to continue the none typed out dice commands.
Correct. Once you roll dice, your combat move phase is over and you are in the conduct combat phase.Should we resolve each battle, one at a time before proceeding, or is it customary to do round 1 for all battles, then round 2 for all remaining, etc, etc.?
I am requesting you roll one combat at a time and complete before you start the next. There are instances where you might change your mind about continuing a fight based on what happens in another and I would like to avoid that if possible.
When do we find out which bids have won……or lost depending on which team you wanted.

Official start day is tomorrow, so either tomorrow or when I receive both bids. I will update the Tournament results thread accordingly. So far I have 9 of 32 bids (10 if you count myself and I am not sure if DM has received my opponent’s bid yet.)
Ha damn timezones….start day is today for me. Meh.
Can you send confirmations to us after you’ve received our bid? I’ve tried sending mine twice but when I check the outbox nothing is there… So I’m not sure if its being sent
Terror, I got yours, but I only got it once.
Everyone else, in Alpha 2 (different in Alpha 3) AAGuns cost 6 IPC, not 5 IPC. For any bids which involved AA Guns I have updated accordingly.
Today is the official start day. I’ll update the results thread to display the winner of the bid, if I have received both bids.
From the Alpha +.2 page:
10. The cost of AA guns will be adjusted down from 6 IPCs to 5 IPCs.

You are correct, my I am wrong. (You better quote this, you may never see or hear a woman admit to being wrong again). I will make the necessary adjustments.
I don’t want to be a bother or start an avalanche of queries, but can you also confirm that my bid was received? I wouldn’t want to (potentially) hold up my opponent if it didn’t go through.
Some of these bids are awesome so far. This will also be a good test to see what is appropriate for Alpha +2.

Can someone post the G40 Alpha+2 map? Want to make sure I’m looking at the same thing as everyone else.
Alpha+.2 map
I hope everybody is aware of the tournament start date; I actually almost forgot myself and had to search the Tournament Section.
maybe a reminder should be sent to the remaining players that haven’t bid yet? and maybe send a few reminders into the other G40 tournament posts; I kept checking only 1 topic but it was only the signup one and I kept looking for when the brackets would be setup etc…
I’ll send a reminder to those who have not sent in bids yet. Either tonight or tomorrow if I remember.
Just to keep everyone up to date, the “News from the Front” thread is reporting winner/loser of bids (and will report winner/loser of games). It’s locked so it wont’ get bogged down with a bunch of irrellevant data. It also includes a copy of the rules, for easy reference.
Keep checking there for your matchings and if you know you sent your bid in and no bid winner is given, PM your opponent to remind him.
Are we suppose to create our game posts here in the Tourney section or in the normal game area?

Post tourney games here in the tournament forum.
Keep checking the result page if your game has not started yet. “News from the Front”. I am updating as fast as I get bids, but i am literally modifying the posts. Since you cannot post there, the thread will never show up under “new replies to your posts” command and since they are modified posts, I do not think they will pop under “show unread posts since last visit” either.
Apparently Karl7 was online today, well according to his profile. So hopefully he got a bid to you Cmdr Jen.
