Battle of the Ages

1v1 games, 5 rounds, 1 game per round, new map each round, and winner gets $40 while most other participants will be getting $5 (from HBG)

@Gargantua:

… If you want to keep helping push these games along - I’d be more than appreciative?  Or if you like.  Set some completion dates?  so if it’s close I can call it to decision.

hey garg,

i suggest giving the first round games until the end of the month and then make a decision on the games.

i think 105 days is far to much time per round. if all the rounds took this long the tournament would end the 23rd of May, 2014 and that is assuming the top bracket wins their first match, otherwise tack on another 105 days.

i also suggest moving forward all games are given a 2 month time limit(with an exception for the final).

[Veqryn]

there are still games in the first bracket going?

what are people doing, 1 turn per week?

i know play by forum can be slow sometimes, but that is just pathetic

[Gargantua]

AGREED Love.

@Gargantua:

AGREED Love.

notices have been given.

Ol’ Blood&Guts has dropped out and P@nther has conceded game #7 to the fighting mongooses.

do you know if P@anther is going to the extra death bracket by himself to face clausiwitz’s idiot apprentices, finding a new partner to face cia, or dropping out of the tournament?

this will help eskander update the bracket.

Panther has fallen on his sword - ad the Atlanta Axis are out.

I believe i covered that in my last update?

[Cow]

So how many axis wins are there over allies right now? Is it 2:1?

[Guerrilla Guy]

OTKG conceded. Update the bracket!

I can already hear Allweneedistank’s next opponent singing this song.

Why did Atlanta axis drop out?

They are the only team in the winner bracket to make it to the third round. They are awaiting their round 3 opponents, so it is unlikely a time constraint issue.

[Gargantua]

I must have had the name wrong?

Panther quit after Ol Blood N Guts folded.

Are you knocking out games in the bracket to deal with the missing players?

[Gargantua]

I’ve let a few other teams -enter- in dead spots.  OR the spots become bye’s.

[Degrasse]

Better tank song for blitzing  :)

This is not a very loving song. We prefer something with harp when we roll through allied capitals.

G, is there a clear direction now on how to bid for sides here? Early on you assigned which team would be which side, but I thought I saw chatter about that being changed.

If there is there is a bid now, people need to be bidding for the Allies, ala AA50, because negative bids are just jacked.  You can find the most worthless, remote units to delete and it gets pretty screwy.  Most people are of the impression that the Axis are slighly favored, so the bid should be for the Allies.

We didn’t quit! We dropped into a coma waiting for everyone to play.  Going to have to re-read the rules over Xmas break to brush up for round 3.

I believe Gargantua meant Transatlantic Alliance. Similar sounding names, so the confusion is not surprising.
