TOP 500 Doubles League [WINNER: ARTUR1 & SNUSLEPPA]

[Incandenza]

Pluto is not active anymore. I (Selin) replaced him.

.

Just when I thought it was safe to go back in the water...

[Teylen]

Hey Selin, here's another chance to do this:


First... for round 2 I'm in team 8.. that's group A...
> 8. Subjekt & Teylen (28 )

Second...
'Week' 3 match is Tamriel and I should be in the second match...

> 3 | Tamriel | 2 | 5,8,12

that's 632741

> Week.|.Map...|.Match.|.Group A
>3..|.Tamriel..|..2..|.632741


now look at the game... there are
> Deadpool, CancerMerchant
> Selin, dividedbyzero
> steelplayin, Kahn

those are teams 5, 12 ... and 9??

the other week 3 group A match is
632736 with team 1, 4 and 9
so far there are:
> Incandenza, Mepps
> Mrs Semper, Evil Semp

1 and 4 are correct.. but no 9 in this game, since it either looks like
a.) they entered the wrong game
or
b.) I'm missing something again

Sooo... what now?


---

hmm... wait.. there seems to be more mess up...

So team 9 is wrong in
Week 3 Match 2
Week 6 Match 2
Week 8 Match 2
Week 10 Match 2
Actually... it looks like they always just joined match 2...

And it seems someone else noticed, since team 12 and 5 didn't
join all the games so far.

Well... and team 8 will wait now until this is settled.

Kahn & steelplayin dropped those 3 games and will join correct ones. So, all players can now join rest of the matches.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

grrrr

[Selin]

Group B Match 4B2 - 632755 is canceled, because roadwarrior & Invincible joined the wrong match.


I opened a new match 4B2 - 655325.

[Selin]

Congrats to GloriousL & AndrewB, first winners of a match in Season 2.

[roadwarrior]

Nice going there

[Selin]

All matches of Season 2 started.

36 of 40 matches were finished.

You can find updated standings as of September 1st on page 1.

[Selin]

Due to a trip to France and limited time for accessing internet, I won't be able to update the standings until 7th of September.

[Incandenza]

Hopefully you'll miss a couple turns as well...

Enjoy your trip, bro.

Group A matches are finalized. Congratulations to the three qualified teams for the final season:

Group winner: Incandenza & Mepps (36 points)

Group 2nd place: CancerMerchant & Deadpool (34 points)

Group 3rd place: Subjekt & Teylen (32 points)

.

[Incandenza]

Yay.

So I'm just throwing this out there, but I would prefer for the finals that we not start all ten games at the same time. Instead it might be better to start five games, then start the other five 10 or so days later. Ten brand new complicated games all starting at the same time was a bit of a bummer.

No problem at all.

If you prefer I may open only two games each time, wait until they are full and open another 2 ....

It may help to arrange your strategy according to the results of earlier matches.

What do other finalists think about this issue?

I don't think that is valid information to use in the tournament. You should play your best, regardless what other people play.

In that way people who play quicker are punished by the slow playing ones. When slow person will be finishing their game, and deciding who to eliminate first, he will have results of quicker playing players available already, whereas the quicker playing player will not have such luxury...



But I think we can do following starting games-wise:

Start all no-cards first. Then all flat rates 1-2 week later. And all escalating another 1-2 week later.

When playing a league, it's not a secret that you may make your attacking/who-to-kill-first etc. decisions according to the positions in the actual standings. We played two seasons and I saw many decisions taken due to this fact. When playing the final season, I'm sure that you will consider your opponents position on the standings table also. That's what I meant.

Your starting suggestion makes totally sense given the fact that no card games last longer than other type of games in general.

Although the last match of Group B has not been finalized yet, the finalists are already known. The last match will only define who becomes second and third. Congratulations to the three qualified teams for the final season:

Group winner: Invincible & roadwarrior (36 points)

Group 2nd or 3rd place: GloriousL & AndrewB (34 points)

Group 2nd or 3rd place: Master Chief & LazarusLong (30 points + potential points from last match)

I will start the final season without waiting on the last match of season 2. I hope I can open no card games tonight, flat rate games in about 1 week and escalating games in approx. 2 weeks.

.

[Selin]

No card games are opened now. Please join your games.

1) Find your team number in my post #3 (look at "qualified for finals" list) on the first page of our forum.
2) Look at the fixture of Finals (post #4) and find out, if you play Match 1 or Match 2. The numbers you see there, are team numbers.
3) Look at the Finals Match # list and find out your game number in the respective week.
5) Use Game Finder to find respective game and make sure to enter it in correct order as a team. Which team enters first, second or third, is not important, just don't get teams mixed.
6) Enter match with your password. The password system is same as in Season 1 and 2. If you don't remember it, pm me.
