You’ll always be prepared going forward!
Pretty major rule

gamerman01

Well, I would if I had time. Honest.

The thing is, there IS such a thing as economic victory and it’s a big part of the game and affects both players strategy, unless 1 player forgot about it - then it affects 1 player’s strategy.

I haven’t talked to him at all, so no influence, but you could ask the_Good_Captain to take a look and see what he thinks if you’re curious and if it’s bugging you. He’s way more experienced with Classic than I am.

Thanks! Would be nice to have a 4th game, yes.

I’m afraid even if you stopped Egypt I could get 84. I could go East Africa. Not sneaky at all.

I’m quite sure there is no way the Allies were going to win this game, it was not a sneaky win. I’d love to prove it, even though I have other games waiting on me, especially a semi-final playoff game that hasn’t even started. But I could be persuaded.

Looking at it for a second -

You probably won’t miss this but since it’s been 1/2 a year -

The USA must take 3 IPCs of territory back or the Allies lose right now.

gamerman01

Absolutely, that will be fun,

@gamerman01 I’ll drop out so Thier can be a 12 man Tournament my computer is Down so triple A wont work

Likewise, for you there is time. If you can get a computer up in the next couple weeks, I hope you’ll play @elche. He’s a super guy, it would be a shame if you can’t play him.

gamerman01

@dawgoneit @hiijohnson

Your decision whether to play or not right now does not affect anyone. Not a problem to give dawg a bye, but in the coming weeks we’ll be seeing how many of the other matches are getting done.

I encourage you to keep the door open. Winner between you two plays @amnykon who has a bye.

If dawg gets a bye, then it’s him vs amnykon. Winner of that will be waiting awhile most likely.

That means no need to forfeit your spot any time soon. Let some weeks or a month pass, then see. No one is gaining from your bowing out, not right now anyway.

gamerman01

OK, I see you’re both in favor of not counting it and @zlefin specifically said he doesn’t care about game count. So it’s not being counted.

gamerman01

If neither of you cares about the count of # of games played

gamerman01

I should point out that I assumed all German infantry so you should change the casualties if you want, I hope you don’t mind

You don’t think you can fix it any time soon? A bit of a delay is OK.
Don’t worry about the number we have - 13 is great. If you can’t play, I would give elche a bye. So I hope you can get a computer but no worries either way of course

gamerman01

Tournament bracket randomized.

@TinCanoftheSea , @amnykon and I drew byes.
The byes drop down to the losers bracket, so the loser of winner’s bracket 1 will get a bye.
So will the loser of winner’s bracket #4, and the loser of winner’s bracket 8.

I inverted the order of players losing 2nd round of the winner’s bracket, otherwise players could be meeting the same player that just beat them, in the loser’s bracket. It would stink to get beat twice, early, by the same player. Inverting it (WB12 - WB9) should fix that. I don’t know, my brain’s scrambled after setting that up.

gamerman01

I added a link to the tournament spreadsheet to the bottom of the opening post of this thread.

IT’S ALL SET UP
Check the spreadsheet and contact your opponent. Nothing to wait for - GO!

Questions on choosing sides or anything - you can ask me
I’m limited in knowledge of TripleA errors, though.

There is a “GUIDELINES” tab on the spreadsheet which includes which way we are going with some of the Classic rules, for this tournament.

gamerman01

We are on the same page.
I’m squeezing this into my workday, so doing in fits and starts.

The list has been randomized, and now I’m getting a proper double elimination bracket from AI and setting it up. For any who can’t wait, the randomized list is in the spreadsheet

LOL we are on the same wavelength. I had that post partly written before your post, and finished it after your post.

I’ll compare names now and start matching using RNG
