All of the group's first games and the emails with the passwords have been created and sent out respectively. All players have 48 hours to join before the reserves are notified and given a chance to join first. If they join before you, they are now in that group and you drop to reserve status. Also, if you will be leaving for a while, please let me know so that I don't drop you

[croat_ante]

It's been over the required 48 hours so I have sent an email to iblaskov due to m33's disappearance

thank you very much for the detailed analysis but dont worry about this in the future... i personally go through every game and work through all the eliminations and excel them all together but thank you for the excellent thought

Also, I am storing all this data into an excel file but does anyone know of a good way of displaying this all here? I prefer not to do the same method as the first tourny because it took so long each time...

It has been suggested to me, for my tournament, to use Google Docs to publish the chart to the web. I'm working on it now, and pass the suggestion along.

hmm interesting... but I'd like to ask, if you've tried it, whether the uploaded files can then be referenced as a picture to post here or whether I'd need to send the link to everyone individually or post it here... currently I just added the file to photobucket and linked it here as usual and that seems to work well...

also.. yeah i updated the standings and posted them on page one!

Game #4425718 is done.

And if I understand the rules correctly I need more points for game #4365886. I eliminated heatz in round 6, so I should get the 4 elim points + 6 (time bonus). This will lower Blitz's score correspondingly (sorry Blitz, please don't kill me for this in game 3)

WOW i am so sorry for this! Total blunder on my fault. Don't even know how that could have happened. The fix has been made and the next update to the Scores will include this.

BUT also, you get 10 time bonus not 6 as apparently, when I click load entire log, you killed him in round 5 not 6 and thereforee fall in the 10 point bracket!!

Not a problem! You have many games and kills to deal with so it's easy to miss one.

BUT also, you get 10 time bonus not 6 as apparently, when I click load entire log, you killed him in round 5 not 6 and thereforee fall in the 10 point bracket!!

Now this is strange. BOB reports the kill in round 5, but:

Code: Select all

2009-03-09 00:54:56 - Incrementing game to round 6
...
2009-03-09 01:47:11 - bonus_mop eliminated heatz from the game


Clearly the kill was made in round 6 (I specifically remember thinking I wish I could have killed him a round earlier). The problem is that if you want to keep the tourney fair, you're stuck trusting BOB in all cases or manually checking the game logs. I vote for game logs, which means I only get 6 points. But I won't object to 10 if you're using BOB to score everyone else. Fun, fun.

hmmmmm... now this is very interesting indeed... and a little scary... cuz this also means the possibility that there were other mistakes in the tournament too... I need to talk to the BOB coders

but for now, to be fair.. i guess it would be best to put it to 6 points

if anyone else notices any such discrepancies, would they please notify me through this forum? all my data collection for points comes from BOB as manually going through the whole game would take forever...
