2011 Adjacent Attacks Tournament [catnipdreams WINS]

[DJENRE]

Game 8611495
ALready a non adjacent attack.

What about reinforcments? Why didn't u set it adjacent too.

[OliverFA]

I am removing ETROPAL from the tournament for repeated cheating.

I'll see if I can find a replacement for him. If that is not possible, we'll continue with only 5 players in the group.

Damn, I hadn't noticed that ETROPAL had signed up for this again, or I would have warned you. He did the same thing in the 2010 tournament. I don't know if he's doing it on purpose or it he just doesn't understand the rules, but he certainly can't seem to follow them.

I almost said something, but I figured I would give him the benefit of the doubt...

In fact I placed him in my group because I wanted to keep an eye on him. I also wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. But he has demonstrated he didn't deserve it.

I already solved this issue with the player that made the mistake. As it was a small one, it will be fixed next turn. Please keep me posted if any issue arises.

About reinforcements, I allowed everybody to choose his own setting.

ok sorry i dont understand english if other rules i cant because no idea how play

je suis désolé, je ne comprends pas l'anglais, alors si il y a d'autre règles que ceux normalement.Bien je ne comprends absolument rien.
j'aurais jamais du m'inscrit a ce tournoi, qui me semble pas pareil au centaine d'autre que j'ai déjà participer.
alors il me fait plaisir d'abandonner ce tournoi et désolé pour le dérangement.

[OliverFA]

C'est ok. J'espère que lorsque les traducteurs sont assez avancés, vous pourrez jouer avec nous.

Pourquoi ne pas apprendre l'anglais dans votre temps libre? c'est amusant! Je suis espagnol, mais j'ai appris l'anglais parce que c'est une langue très utile.

Hi all!

This is just a quick advertisement, if any players want to find more AA games, we are setting up a usergroup to facilitate both AA and other game styles. The sign up link is viewtopic.php?f=444&t=139346&p=3065139#p3041192

Thanks

Scores updated. The first points have been assigned, but all players are very close to each other, and anything could happen.

Thanks for the link, SS. Glad I found out about that.

It probably wasn't very fair to put Clandemonium as my groups first map, being a new map with new settings to most of the players. It turned out to be a complete slaughter.

Everybody has his chance at slaughting with his map However, I have never played it, but Clandemonium looks like a very clear map easy to understand (mastering it is a different thing). I personally dislike more "battle maps" like Stanlingrad, that we have also in the tournament

I agree that Stalingrad is a very difficult map to master, but in terms of maps to learn AA on... Clandemonium may not be the best. The second I started gaining Deep Land it was all over - like one player said earlier on, I was getting more reinforcements than the other 5 players combined!

Fortunatelly, they can be fixed at this stage. I provided instructions about how to fix them. If they are followed, the game will continue like if nothing had happened.

In that case, be careful when game 7 arrives. They might want to take their revenge

Hey Oliver,

First round of our second game [Game 8739570] (on the random map, I assume that cyan wasn't expecting the map or something similar), and we have a minor violation:

2011-03-22 22:45:42 - fmdm03 assaulted Ca' Melone from I Laghi and conquered it from doro
2011-03-22 22:45:58 - fmdm03 assaulted Gaviano from Ca' Melone and conquered it from uk massive

I personally don't see it as an issue as I Laghi borders both Ca' Melone and Gaviano, so the attacks theoretically could have been made as follows:

2011-03-22 22:45:42 - fmdm03 assaulted Ca' Melone from I Laghi and conquered it from doro
2011-03-22 22:45:58 - fmdm03 assaulted Gaviano from I Laghi and conquered it from uk massive

with the same result.

Since you're the director, what's the official ruling on something like this? (I already took Gaviano on my turn, regardless of this play)

[OliverFA]

Thanks for pointing it Denominator. As a veteran AA player you did a great diagnostic of the issue. As it had no consequences, game can continue. But it was very good to catch it, because it serves as warning and helps avoiding later mistakes that could have worse consequences. Already sent fmdm03 a friendly warning about it.

[OliverFA]

Scores updated. Denominator joined Brett as the leader player.

[OliverFA]

Another update. I don't guarantee I will always be able to update so often, but enjoy while it lasts

[OliverFA]

Another update. Group 5 is the first group to start the 3rd game.
