Freedom Is Not Free [Winner: freyme]

[jennifermarie]

thanks kinnison, i believe that i deleted your last game as i can't count and accidentally put in 22 instead of 21.

All groups had the last game in the pm deleted cause I can't count. Do not worry about it, you were only supposed to have 21...don't forget to post standings

[Tieryn]

So... I've joined them.. but 21 games at a time is a BUCKETload (I'm lucky I've got holiday time coming up)...

Sign me up, Orange Group.

...About how many games will be started pergroup at a time? I figure 3 or 7... please god, not the whole 21.

Would it be possible for future rounds to maybe look at a few games at a time, rather than all 21 at once? it's just overwhelming. You'll forget which game you're applying which strategy to.

Even like create 5 games, all members in a group join them, as soon as one finishes, we pm you the results, and you create the next one (or two or three, depending on how many are finished) Then at the end of the round, we might have to wait a few weeks for others to catch up (if any group lags significantly behind, get them to join more games at a time), but it will reduce the stress-load of playing so many games at once. It might be a little extra work on the TO's part, although if you put titles on games (Cyan 1, Cyan 2 etc) then we should all be smart enough to use the game finder to check for new games every couple of days. Or they could be posted in the forum, or in the game chat of the other games that are underway. It needn't be a massive pm undertaking...

Anyway, think about it for next round. What do the other players think?

[jennifermarie]

yeah i'll try to only give 7 next round, then wait until most of those are finished, and then give another 7, and then do that again until you have 21.

[Kinnison]

I agree with Tieryn, but in jennifermarie's defense, we must keep in mind that this tournament was NOT originated by her. She took over once tentamu had to depart CC.

Thanks again, jennifermarie, for running this tournament.

[barterer2002]

As I PMed Jennifer yesterday I can really handle either way but would prefer the 7 at a time method-if we're asking for preferences.

[barterer2002]

On another subject, why hasn't this thread been moved to ongoing?

[biteme143]

yo one person is missing in our game please notify him or her group BLUE!

[jennifermarie]

ok i will look into that

[oakleyshole]

i'll be a reserve if you need

[Tieryn]

Yeah, I wasn't criticising jennifer, I know she's taken it over, but if we could look at that for next round it would be a lot nicer for those of us who have other tourneys on the go at once

Cheers,

[parapenteman]

Yeah, well, you two might want to work on targeting each other sooner, then.

[barterer2002]

You see it works much better from my perspective if you'll target him and come up a little short.

[Kinnison]

I've noticed that, especially in a couple of games where I obliged by screwing up what should have been a termination sweep.

Ah, well. Can't complain too much. I'm sure I have enough points to make the first cut, and this tournament has done WONDERS for my score...

[freyme]

I will try and get knocked out a little earlier if it helps the greater good.

[barterer2002]

Now I've been assuming that points carry forward from round to round but as I re-read the opening post it doesn't indicate one way or the other. Perhaps some clarification from this from Jennifer would be in order.
