[CC2] 2nd Annual Conqueror's Cup!!

[Lindax]

All-

We will be issuing medals for the CC2 over the next few hours. The process of getting the medals out was authorized by jpcloet and it has just taken us a while to get the 22 completed wars analyzed. Masli has given the thumbs up so they will be out shortly.

Of course, LoW will not be receiving medals for beating ++The Legion++ as that was clearly farming

Cheers,

Nick

Oh, is it over?

[danryan]

Not exactly. Some of the challenges are, but the final 8 teams all mathematically are still in it.

No. We are going to treat these as they were intended as individual clan wars. So medals will be passed out for all wars. The overall winner will get a medal for the victory that also mentions the cup win, like the winners of CCup1.

[Lubawski]

Thanks Cheme, Masli, and the late jpcloet (who we are hoping returns from beyond).

[Bruceswar]

Yes thanks for the medal. Only 3 more to collect now!

This will come to no surprise of some that I am closest to, but I have only been on this site for 1 reason and that is enjoyment. I created and have ran both the conqueror's cup and the power rankings as I saw an opportunity to better the site and improve the enjoyment of all, including myself.

My enjoyment on this site is quickly approaching 0. Real life is busy and my commitments and responsibilities are in a higher demand than the amount of time I have each day. Luckily, thanks to my job and the fact that I am on a computer 2/3 of every day, this is not a farewell message because I will still be on this site, however, I will be playing very minimally and really not contributing in any other way to the site.

To be honest, the Conqueror's Cup is a nearly self ran tournament with very little input needed from a TD except for a few slight hiccups.

The Power Rankings are a little more time consuming in sending out PMs, collecting data, and then inputting data and creating tables.

I would not like to hand these over lightly to just the first person to raise their hand because I feel I have tried to handle both very professionally and fairly for all involved. The last thing I would want to see is some 13 year old (or someone who acts like one) take over and start changing things that make either less enjoyable or fair for the masses. I am not even sure me picking someone to hand these over to is the best way to handle it. But maybe there should be some reasonable discussion in the forums of how they can be handled in a fair manner in the future because one thing is for sure and that is I will not be putting much time into this site anymore other than playing a few games.

I'm sorry to hear you're not having fun anymore. I guess that's happening a lot lately. The player that popped into my brain first to run the cup is dowian2. He has run lots of tournaments and has great organizational skills. I have no idea if he would be interested or not, but if he is, he would be great at it. Lindax also would, but maybe he's too busy and is doing too many other things.

[chemefreak]

Meh.

This is CC's loss. You've been a great contributer to the site. It will be difficult to find someone who is as universally respected and highly regarded as you are to take over the Power Rankings.

We're still behind the updated schedule a bit, but since most of the last 4 have been decided, should we expect the next round to start soon?

all 4 have essentially been decided just waiting now

We have 22 games outstanding. I'd like to see that drop to about 10 or so before beginning the next round. A couple weeks would be great.

[Bruceswar]

That works for me. Looking forward to playing Empire again. What do the other clans think about a time frame?

[Incandenza]

To the best of my knowledge, batch 1 game exchange for thota-monkis is still a week or two away.

[Bruceswar]

Looks like we all like the same schedule then.

Bruce, KORT should start the thread so that we can start harassing you. I mean so that we can get the game making privileges.

Oh it's there, and the harassing has already begun. Bruce hope you're not planning on going freemium in this war, don't chicken out now...lol

Not a chance. You will get a nice dose of KORT and me.

[Georgerx7di]

Alright kort, I think we're just about ready for you guys : )

[Bruceswar]

Finals are shaping up to be very tough.
