WORLD CUP CONQUER CLUB 2006 [WINNER: TEAM CANADA 1]

by **Pedronicus** on Tue May 23, 2006 7:01 am

I've chosen the Classic map, as it always wins in polls of favourite maps.

Plus - EVERYONE has played it, and knows how it works.

Cool. I'm in to play for Ireland!

by **Villains** on Tue May 23, 2006 8:01 am

Count me in for the team Ireland.....Is there enough for 2 Irish teams now?

by **Marvaddin** on Tue May 23, 2006 8:38 am

Ok, classic map, but I strongly suggest escalating and unlimited fortifications to all stages... or we can be waiting that loooooong game, as happened to one Xigames final.

Am I the single one from South America here?

Any ideas on a date yet? I wanna know if I have to keep one of my 4 slots free for this, or whether I can have another game on the go...

by **Ronaldo1** on Tue May 23, 2006 10:38 am

I'll play as netherlands

by **juventino** on Tue May 23, 2006 10:41 am

some swedes in here? would be fun with a Sweden

by **Pedronicus** on Tue May 23, 2006 10:46 am

Start date will be at the same time for each game as per the world cup games

I have asked twill / lack if games can be for free or if we can games carry over from the 4 slots.

ie. join into the game, but unable to play 4 games at a time later on down the line.

As of yet - no answer, so to be on the safe side, keep a slot free...

I'm gonna post the provisional teams now... though Pedro, I think if we're looking for 96 players it'd be better to faciltate people changing their countries. That said I think, when the opportunity is there you should play for your home country (Generally country of birth, possibly where you grew up).

Doing updated team list now...

If you're stuck for a team try pm some of the players on the thread. Remember to list your country if you wanna sign up.
When the totol of 96 players is filled, unfinished teams may be merged.
Still looking for some premium member(s) to volunteer to host any games for non premium teams

Hey queeee, can you double check w/ the current site? I updated it yesterday w/ my team... though, I'll try and work on it later this evening when i get home from work/school....

by **qeee1** on Tue May 23, 2006 11:14 am

Rules I'd suggest:

1st game : Classic map, Flat Rate, Unlimited fortifications
2nd game : Classic map, Escalating, 1 fortification
3rd game : Classic map, Escalating, Unlimited fortifications

Second round games to be: Classic Map, Flat Rate, Unlimited Fortifications

Quarter final games to be: Classic Map, Escalating, 1 Fortification

Semi finals to be: Classic Map, Flat Rate, Unlimited Fortifications

Third place play off game & WORLD CUP FINAL to be: Classic Map, Flate rate, 1 Fortification.

Rationale
Group stages need to go quickly... but all three games can be played at once, so once we get the first one hosted it should be ok, as the latter two will be faster.
By the time we reach the semis, fast games aren't as important, so I think flat rate works ok. As for why flat rate, that's just my personal preference, either way we're gonna have 3 of one type and 4 of the other, I'd just prefer more flat rate.
Second round maty be take a bit long, but 4 escalating games in a row might be a bit much.[/b]

Im down for this!

by **Pedronicus** on Tue May 23, 2006 11:34 am

Qeee - i just emailed MrT with my original games. But i dont mind your changes...

we'll go with youre amended games.

I suggested that games start at exactly the same time as the world cup games themselves - playing all three group games at the same time means that if you are in the group stages - you can see what sort of win you need to achieve to progress out of the group.
