Just watiting on a few games...Group B, E & F.

I dunno, we're into round 13 in Group E, this is gonna be a long battle, there are armies everywhere.

It might not be a bad idea, this is just a sugestion, so take it if you wish. Institute a time limit(round limit) It'd be like none of us answered in time(boop-boop-booooop), which would be true to the show, and help keep the overall tme limit of the tournament down, some.

I like it. I think that 20-25 rounds should be enough, so 25 rounds max. I'll check over the games to see if anybody is winning in a reasonable amount of time, likely around 5-10 rounds extra before the round "times out".

by **dittoeevee8888** on Mon Jun 16, 2008 3:13 pm

I've checked over the few games that are still ongoing.

I believe that Group E will likely finish in a few turns, but Group B & F will not due to cards, but I have absolutely NO idea about Group F as it is fog, but the game log seems as if they are pretty equal. I've decided to give all unfinished games 10 more rounds starting from the next round to finish or else the round will time out. I'm guessing that should take another week, but some of them seriously don't look as if they are going to stop any time soon.

It's fine w/ me--I'm patient

. As long as it's before my membership reaches the halfway point I'm fine, lol.

Group E: Continents for $400 Game 2543482 - amazzony wins

If I understand correctly then I can make another pick. Can I make it now (I'll forget later)? I've lost the form so I'll make it up.
Group E: Continents for $600

So with a round limit that expires, is it a stalmate and no one gets any points(or money)?

Not exactly a stale mate, as someone would eventually get the upper hand, but we're not interested in waiting, right? Anyway, just nobody gets money and I start next batch of games.

Yes you can make another pick, and you can make it now, and it's fine if you lost the form.

Still waiting on 2 groups, shouldn't be long before we start a new round, I'm not guessing any of them are going to finish in the specified time.

by **Gregrios** on Tue Jun 17, 2008 10:37 pm

Stalmate wasn't the best name for it but yeah the money payout is what I was wondering. Thanks D.

by **CryWolf** on Thu Jun 19, 2008 12:21 pm

ERmm... I won in group F.... I will take "our past" for $600

by **reahma** on Sat Jun 21, 2008 2:35 pm

I won in Group D. I will take "The USA" for $600.

by **dittoeevee8888** on Sat Jun 21, 2008 9:49 pm

One more game to go.

That said, there's going to be a new rule in place. Missing up to 3 turns (doesn't have to necessarily be in a row) will get you replaced next game. This is to speed up the tourney, and the fact that it's rude to make people waiting.

by **fireedud** on Tue Jun 24, 2008 12:55 pm

I have won Game 2543507. That's group H at $800. Does this mean I get to pick the next category? (also sorry, for telling so long after the game finished, I had forgotten about this tournament.

Yes. You may choose. And it's okay, understandable considering that it's been a long time since your game ended.

Anyway, knighthawk is going to be replacing geigerm not Bones for the next round.

As well, Group B's game has "timed out" so I will be sending out PMs to be checking who has and hasn't sent in their choices.

Games should be up and running by this weekend.

by **fireedud** on Fri Jun 27, 2008 9:06 pm

ok, I will take Cairnswk's maps for $1000, Alex. ( sorry just couldn't resist)

by **Bones2484** on Sat Jun 28, 2008 11:08 am

Group B countries 800.

by **dittoeevee8888** on Sun Jun 29, 2008 10:32 am

Okay, that's everybody. I will get games up first, then update the scoreboard.

Also, for choosing your next round, here is the form:

Group [Group Letter]: [Category] for $[Money Amount]

Just for those of you who have forgotten (which I'm guessing is most of you)

by **dittoeevee8888** on Sun Jun 29, 2008 10:33 am

Also, knighthawk has replaced geigerm, and Bones will be coming back.

by **dittoeevee8888** on Mon Jun 30, 2008 9:52 pm

Group A) needs a redo game, I'll get that up tomorrow, and Luvr has until the end of tomorrow until I'm replacing.

by **dittoeevee8888** on Wed Jul 02, 2008 9:03 am

AtreidesHouse will be replacing Luvr in Group C.
goggles paisano will be replacing killmanic in Group A.

Scoreboard should be updated soon, after I update another tourney...
