Yes, count me in.
I’ve just started playing online and I am really enjoying it.  Thanks to everyone for the help and my apologies to Jennifer who I ripped on about online AA games.  Even though I think FTF is still better, PBF/online has been both convienient and enjoyable.  Thanks again.

Questions:
What is the 1-10 order?  A ranking or something or just a place spot?  Is this a single elimination tourny or Swiss style??
Of the 2 new optional rules Larry gave us in his updated FAQs (Jan 12th), what will be used?  Will we use the escort rule and/or the Black Sea closed rule or none of them???

The order has nothing to do with anything.  I’m hoping we’ll get 16 for a nice even bracket.  Brackets will be drawn at random (think NCAA tournament).  Yes, single elimination.  No for the 2 new optional rules.

We will go beyond 16 if players still keep signing up.  The next target would obviously be 32, but anything between 16 and 32 would probably require some people to have “byes” which would be done by random roll.

@DarthMaximus:

NO BIDS (sides chosen by random roll)

Please, clarify this. It means:

1. Roll dies, higher plays axis
2. Roll dies, higher chooses side

wich one?

Anyway, I’ll play

I’ll do the rolling when I make up the random brackets.  Once I’ve got all the games set up, I’ll just do an in-house roll, something like, if I roll a “1” then Player A is Axis and a “2” means Player B is Axis.  So it’ll be a 50/50 shot, and I’ll do that for each game.

[Funcioneta]

Yep, it’s better (adds speed)

I’m in I suppose, but this will be my first PBF game unless someone responds to my find player post.  I was hoping to be able to play at least 1 PBF game before this tournament kicked off.

Now that we have a full dance card, how 'bout giving us newbies a little handicap when paired with the old heads? Say, like a two turn head start before our opponents attack? Yeah, that’s the ticket… :-D
