this makes you favourite for the tour?

[barterer2002]

Yeah those two WWII Europe maps are taking a bit of time in Groups 1 and 2

[Serbia]

I just won this game, and I think that means I advance, right?

[barterer2002]

One game to finish up in Round 2. If neither slickstick nor dinustef manages a win they will have to play a one game 1v1 playoff after which we'll move onto Round 3

OK so I have an issue with my calculations. I'm supposed to be running 5 player games, there are 16 of us however as we had 4 brackets of 5 and eliminated one each. Thus eliminating 4 rather than 5 players this round. I need to eliminate one more. Two players were involved in play in games to advance, myself and Woodruff. We will play another game on the tiebreaker map with the winner being our 15th player and the loser eliminated. (nobody is getting screwed on this one as Woodruff won his match on a forfeit and I made the mistake to begin with). At the end of this round we will be left with 12 players meaning that we'll need to eliminate 2 of those who have ostentiably advanced. They will be the players with the fewest wins within this round with a tiebreaker here as the TOTAL WINS TO DATE IN THE TOURNAMENT (tiebreaker wins do not count). In an event that there is a tie in both these circumstances there will be a tiebreaker game played on the tiebreaker map. I'll update the first page rules to reflect this as well and will PM all remaining players.

Thus far no eliminations in Round 3

[freakns]

Thus far no eliminations in Round 3

group 1 is about to start cashing in cards, so its going to be interesting in next round or two. with small or middle sized maps i think we are going to start eliminating each other pretty soon

[barterer2002]

No eliminations yet but they should start as the cards start moving up.

[freakns]

4680368 won by Jack_Strap

i started the attacks, rolls failed me, Jack took the advantage and finish it in one move

4680374 all are in, still completely open

4680379 Tripitaka and Jack_Strepa are out. i eliminated both of them, but failed in 15 on 3 attack against taxmanjle who now have two territories, 1 soldier on both of them so Guderian09 is having great chance of winning it

4680375 Tripitaka out(again, i attacked him, didnt finish it, so others took advantage of it), others have similar chances

4680370 all in, still completely open


so, in 3 games rolls completely abandon me. now its a question will i even try something in other two as its obvios i cant kill a shit

[freakns]

4680368 won by Jack_Strap
4680379 won by Guderian09
4680375 won by me

4680370 and 4680374 are still open to anyones taking

[freakns]

Tripitaka won 4680374

and there is a realistic chance for taxmanjle to win 4680370. in that case, we all won 1 game. what happens then? we all enter one tiebraking game, on Ireland, and play until first one is out or total wins rule will be applied(the rule i appreciate as im the one with the most wins so far in this group )?

[barterer2002]

If you all tie with 1 win then you all play the tiebreaker game and whoever is eliminated first is out without question. The rest may advance depending on the games tiebreaker.

[freakns]

well, i was (un)fortunately wrong as Jack_Strap won Berlin game(4680370) and completing third round in our group with two wins. taxmanjle is out as he is the only one without win.
counting all rounds, Jack_Strap and i have 5 wins each, Tripitaka have 4 and Guderian09 have 3. that means im in the semis //some wild dancing thing
just as Jack_Strap, congrats mate Tripitaka is most likely through but still not sure... Guderian09, its going to be close...

in group 2, dinustef already have 2 wins and Portmangray have 1(dinustef is through for sure as he has 5 wins in total). two games still playing are left with 3 players in each and should be finished soon.

group 3, they are slow as death. all alive in every single game...

[dinustef]

group 2 completed.

4680380 - zorbas
4680381 - dinustef


final standings:
Portmangray 1 (4 total)
dinustef 3 (6)
Zorbas 1 (4)
denominator 0 (1)
Woodruff 0 (0)

[barterer2002]

I sent a tiebreaker out last night for Woodruff and denominator to see who is automatically eliminated this round.

[barterer2002]

Groups 1 and 2 have finished (except for the group 2 tiebreaker) Group 3 has yet to complete a game.

[dinustef]

Group 3 has yet to complete a game.

3 games won by keiths31

[freakns]

Group 3 has yet to complete a game.

3 games won by keiths31

wow, keiths is delivering... and if lordnex doesnt have a card set in Italy, there is a chance for 4th game for him
im jealous

[barterer2002]

OK so here's where we are. denominator is going to be one of the two wild card eliminations in this round (1 win total). there will be a tiebreaker game in Region 3 to determine who the automatic elimination in that group is (from whichever of them doesn't get a win this round).

With 2 games left to finish in that round Mikaf looks to be in trouble with only 1 previous win to his credit. However winning both of these games will tie him with several other players with 3 wins each. lordnex could also use a win as he's next lowest with 2 previous wins. Even if they're not eliminated in this round both players (as well as all those with 3 wins) will need to garner some before the end of ROund 4 when 3 wild card eliminations will take place.

lol so that tie-breaker game between Woodruff and I really didn't matter - whoever won was going to be the wild card elimination regardless!
