Let’s collect ourselves here! And have some fun. I prefer the Allies, but I am flexible.

@gamerman01 Oh shoot, I get to play the legendary @Adam514 in my first playoff game here. Sounds like a good hazing for the new guy!

You can still talk 666 into participating and that changes everything. I’ll hold the elevator door for you
Or track down Gorshak
But the way the cookie crumbled… you’re the sacrificial lamb -
@gamerman01 Gorshak had a personal matter that pulled him away from his games, unlikely that he will be back for a while. I’m fine riding the fast elevator down to – wait, I’m already here!

I almost forgot.
The higher (better) seed has the right to make the first bid.
Playoff brackets have been set
Look on the rankings spreadsheet or ELO spreadsheet

2023 BM playoff second bracket Avner over Sovietishcat (L+4)
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/40247/playoff-sovietishcat-avner-l-4/90?_=1704139266084
@gamerman01 I think you are right, the game should count for 2024, but either way I am fine with it.
I do not know about Avner thinking…
The last round was in 2023… I don’t know, I’m fine with it anyway. ;)

This is only relevant if you don’t manage 6 completed games in 2024 without that result. Otherwise it makes absolutely no difference.

AndrewAAGamer (axis) defeats me (Allies+20) in BM4
When you are up against a better player, you can still win with good dice.
If your opponent is a lot better, like Andrew is compared to me, you need some incredible luck and/or at least a couple of decisive battles going your way.If however the better player consistently gets favoured by the dice gods from the very beginning to the very end - well that’s just hopeless

L23 OOB (LL) AndrewAAGamer (X) vs Pacifiersboard (L+61)
Pacifiersboard defeats AndrewAAGamer
Pacifiersboard one big mistake did not compensate enough for AndrewAAGamers 5 large mistakes. Poorly played by me and a deserved win for Pacifiersboard.

Avner (Axis) defeats MrRoboto (Allies+18) in BM4.
Axis snatched Cairo for a single turn with a sneaky move, despite being behind more than 80 IPC.
Throws like this, where I have a 90% winning position, are the reason I am not ranked higher…

@ArtofWar1947 Allies wins over @Stucifer (Axis +9) in game #2A decisive USN victory off New Guinea was the real nail in the coffin, although if it had failed and the battle for Berlin succeeded that also would have ended the game. (Round 11, page 6 if anyone is curious!)

@HammerTime He’s been afk for awhile, but I feel comfortable saying that our game was going to be a victory for myself.

L24 PTV Daaras (L) over avandoo (X+11)
30% battle to decide, and he wins. gg

Wow this is surprising. Last BM result was January 3
We have 6 PTV games finished in a row.2024!
BM - 2 games
PTV - 7 games
OOB - 1 game -
@gamerman01 It seems @mikawagunichi has gotten his (friends/brothers?) @daaras @avandoo back to league play, or did they return on their own…
Either way, I am grateful, more fodder for us in the middle of the ELO pack so I can intersperse my losses to ArtofWar and GeneralDisarray with losses to people my own skill level! 😉

Given technical difficulties and a weak opening, Avandoo conceded in a PM.
