Wow, this was a marathon tournament. Everyone was up at least until 2-3am, with people just crashing in rooms and couches, rising up the next morning at 7am to eggs and bacon and then dice, with games going by 9am. I got less than 4 hours of sleep both nights, that plus the beer and chest bumping really took it out of me.

But nonetheless, everyone I think had a good time. If there was one area of improvement, I think the moderator declared victories were unsatisfying for some. This was understandable since you’re asking someone to declare a winner based on an arbitrary stopping point in the game. Many of the games the moderators had to call were close enough that while you could still see one side was winning, there was a chance the other side could rally. I don’t like tourney rules, but maybe now I see value. Live and learn.

Regardless, there was definitely a lot of KILL KILL KILLING! Maybe next year I will be out from under my “family contribution time” deficit that I can host this thing again! As is, no one punched a hole in the wall, or threw a chair through any windows so I am probably good getting the house again!!

Peace!.. er, wait, WAR!

Some random photos above. The one of us toasting was after the final game, which was a split decision for Vancouver. I voted for Tacoma but Juan and Joel were for Vancouver. Joel did not participate in the battle. That was a tight game.

Yes, I am back though have yet to do a combat move or throw any dice. AeV asked me for a game and has patiently waited. I hope it’s like riding a bike

It is

@gamerman01

Wow, sad to hear about the troubles. Sounds like Bold is on his way back. That is good news indeed. I went to college in Chicago and spend many years there. I used to have a lot of connections there, but time has faded many of them. But a trip back once things finally return to normal could be in order.

When Bold is ready to pick up the sword, let him know I am ready! LOL.

@gamerman01 said in League General Discussion Thread:

Guys, I’m thinking about resigning as league moderator and scoreboard operator. I don’t want to leave you in the middle of a year so intend to finish this year out and set up playoffs and everything, but maybe somebody should come alongside me and learn some of the ropes, or maybe you guys have an idea of another direction to take all this.

Contributing to this decision is that I did have my first manic and depressive episodes this year since 2005 (still pretty depressed - trying to get the right meds) but I wanted to get out anyway, since I haven’t found the time to play any league games myself.

I intend to help make a smooth transition if someone else is eager to moderate and score games (maybe a team) - I’d been doing everything with no partner for years now (Although having a partner can mean more work if they have differing ideas than you)

Please think about it - sorry - I guess this day had to come sooner or later. Thanks for understanding

The giants pass on…

I still remember the first G40 game I beat Gamerman, only then to lose 2 subsequent games to him… Highlight of my A&A game career! LOL! Gamerman and Boldfresh will always be A&A Titans in my book…

FtoF, probably like 60-80ish

On triple a on the league, like 400.

I guess I could go count them up…

@witt USA 6.tsvg

@contango

Wow, USA gets to come in round 3?

GG

I think your game is way to allied friendly. Allies are huge everywhere whilst Axis are stalled out completely.

Interesting map though.

@contango Japan 3.tsvg

@gamerman01

Logically why not? If the allied unit were a unit of the same power but just didn’t offload, that power could still shuck another guy across. Transport doesn’t start operating differently just because an allied unit is on it.

@karl7

bought 1 tank, 1 mech, 2 inf, and 1 art

@karl7 germany-3 (1).tsvg

@contango

ohh, right… doh, ok, I will convert to units.

Not hitting transport. It lives unless you scram and create battle.

@karl7

so program wouldn’t let me upgrade factory ? I edited it, unless it’s some house rule.

Also, when Japan is up, do you want to scram off the southern stronghold, I am going all in.

@elrood said in w@w team game 15:

@karl7 what are you referring to?

a spam post got posted in our thread just above my post but i guess the moderators or whoever deleted it… it was typical “get your big dick here” stuff…

Was I the only one to see it? LOL
