No if we win by the smallest margin(60 games + tiebrakers) the second place will technicaly have to be shared by 3 clans

No worries, we are slow cookers and have some wins coming in.

It would have to be 31-29 or 34-33 because it's only 60 or 67 game match.

First blood!
Look guys, they aren't mythical creatures. They do in fact, bleed!

Dont worry Arma86n, we kept the carpet clean

Excellent. Large carpets, drycleaners, and my bank account are not a good combination in my book.

Sorry for the incredibly late reply btw, I have been otherwise occupied the last month.

I have it around 22-24 right now (give or take)

by **rockfist** on Thu Oct 29, 2015 5:06 pm

That seems reasonable. I think I'm a little more reluctant to call games so my numbers are lower but the match is very close.

Yeah, I generally have win / strong adv, leaning, neutral, leaning, strong adv / winning. So when i give these numbers its usually the win, strong, and leaning combined into a number and only leave out the full neutrals (and i dont mind putting something in leaning because it can always be changed if it alters) I dont wait until its totally locked down, cuz thats what I use strong for (to indicate very low chance of being turned at that point)

I've got the same basic ranking: Likely x, Lean x, Even, Lean y, Likely y. There is a lot of gray area between each of the categories in my mind though. It's not usually important in the likely/lean distinction, but between lean and even, I don't have a good objective, or even necessarily consistent, set of rules. I tend to be pretty subjective and go by feel. Bigger maps with larger teams and a 1-2 army deploy lead may end up listed as even for a while, unless that slight advantage remains for a couple rounds. The same lead in a small map with dubs teams might end up in the lean category a lot more quickly.

Sounds similar to me.

TOFU have any predictions here?

by **rockfist** on Wed Nov 04, 2015 2:48 pm

Can't speak for our clan. Speaking from my perspective it looks like its going to come down to three games unless a game is flipped (but I am assuming a lot to get to those numbers) and we will need to win two of three. At this point its more likely that a game or two will be flipped before the end than not, although many are all but over.

Ok sounds very similar to my #'s / info then. Plus just wanted someone to say something it's far to quiet for Finals!

I think people are keeping their powder dry. As it gets closer to the end you may see more commentary or if it goes to the tiebreaker I am sure you will.

WWII Ardennes has Fallen. I seem to remember someone saying we needed to win at least 20 to keep things interesting....
I wonder how he feels now

You guys haven't won 20 games just yet...

Don't worry Doc, if they do I'm sure they won't keep quiet about it. They'll be quick to post about any wins they have.
