Kris…aka “Surprise Attack”

Sorry to hear that Kris… hope to see you next year, we’ll miss ya.

Cheers.

Two in one year just to get into an April groove for the long run? sounds interesting :)

Surprise Attack, yes I got it to work. A little low in sound but works great. Â

Crusaderi, yes i would love the rules if you don’t mind.

@miamiumike:

I need someone to explain a bit better how this chess clock idea will work.

Let’s say the tournament round is set for 6 hours (which is what AA50 games are set to currently). This would then mean each team has 3 hours of time? In the middle of round 6, Italy is up and opps - the Axis run out of time - they automatically lose?

If this is correct, then I guess that means we want to have NO new people play the game. Not even people who have played but are not true ‘experts’. The only situation I could see possibly thinking about using this idea would be in a Masters type tournament. That would be it. Otherwise, you will kill any non-hardcore player from ever even attempting a tournament game. For the Masters, it might work.

I’d be willing to give it a try - just to see how it goes - but I cannot see how this helps grow the number of people who would want to play in a tournament.
