    @Boldfresh:

    The games move down the list so fast I lose track of them!  Wish there was a feature where u could be shown just your active threads.

    Don’t you use “show new replies to your posts”?  I always know what games are waiting for me, using this feature

    I use this feature too, but when you post from TripleA you will have to remark it.  I’ve noticed that if I don’t I don’t get any more notices.


  • Hmmm - I have not had that problem.

    Sure, after posting my move in Triple A, that takes it off my list, but that’s what I want.  It comes back on my list when someone else (my opponent) makes a post.
    This way, the list is always a short list of the games where it is my turn.

    my problem is i read the thread but forget to mark unread.  then it proceeds to sink rapidly down the list…  :roll:

    I had that mixed up with the notify button.  That works, but as I said it’ll remove it if you post from TripleA.


  • Keep track of your games by bookmarking all your game threads - easy peasy

    now there’s a good idea!


  • Arathorn over Questioneer not included in my rankings (but footnote added at bottom) because only G1 played - Questioneer is not a regular league player….

    Anyway, just posting this as a courtesy to Arathorn as an FYI

    Great. I wouldn’t want it there either as it would reduce my PPG average.

    Thank you!


  • Changed my mind -
    Boldfresh over Ziggurat not included in the rankings (footnote added below, to reconcile to official league standings)
    because it was only played through I1 and I understand that Ziggurat was the beneficiary of very good dice on G1 and I1.  He did not quit because he had a poor position or thought he was going to lose, so in my judgment that is a non-result.

    This is the link to the on-line rankings spreadsheet
    See where you stack up against the other 50 league players in the 2013 league
    See first 2 posts in this thread for explanations/details.

    Reminder to players to go back and look at the first post in the G40 league thread for the league rules.
    One thing that has changed since then is the # of games required to make the playoffs, and how many players will participate in the playoffs, but it will still go purely by win % - that has not been changed.


  • @Gamer

    Do U have some data about an average bid of the 2013 league so far?

    And data about average Allied winning bid of the 2013 league?

    thanks :)

    I have not been tracking bids this year under the assumption that most players are not very experienced and don’t really know what they’re doing, anyway.

    I think most bids I’ve noticed range from 5 to 14, with 9-12 being most common.

    Sorry, no data on bid amounts.

    Guess my average bid this year has been 36 IPC this year for allies.  (48+48+12) with 1 loss and 2 games in progress.  That help ya Amon-Sul?

    And what about Axis vs Allies ? Which side is better so far?


  • You can look at the right side of my rankings spreadsheet and decide for yourself

    I think you will find that there are about 6 players who have had much more success with the Axis than the Allies.
    Many players have a similar record and/or win % with Axis and Allies.
    Many players just plain prefer taking one of the two sides (I take the Allies) much more than the other.

    I think Allies have won at least half of the games in the league in the past couple of months.  I think that as people get more experience with the game, the Allies will have more success, because I think it’s easier to play effectively with the Axis than the Allies, for most players, especially if they don’t have a lot of experience.

    Ah, the eternal question….

    I have myself seesawed on this quit a bit… at first it was the Axis then maybe the allies having the advantage.

    BUT, all that being said, I think the caliber of the player and luck factor more than which side is being played.  A good player with the Axis that gets good luck at the start is almost unstoppable. A good player that gets bad luck with the Axis is quit stoppable, unless his opponent is a weaker player and then the Axis player can maybe pull it off.
