      @Gargantua

      CANADA vs USA final tally

      Results:

      Friday game, 1941 Anniversary w/bid for 2 points:

      San Francisco over Victoria

      Vancouver over Seattle

      Tacoma over Valley (Canada)

      Saturday game, G40 w/bid for 4 points:

      San Francisco over Vancouver

      Seattle over Valley

      Tacoma over Victoria

      Sunday Game, 1942 2nd, except San Francisco vs Valley which was 1942 Anniversary, w/bid, for 2 points:

      San Francisco over Valley

      Vancouver over Tacoma

      Seattle over Victoria

      Tournament totals:

      San Francisco comes in at No.1 at 8 points! Yay!

      Tacoma and Seattle come in for tie for 2nd place at 6 points each.

      Vancouver comes in 3rd for 4 points.

      Victory and Valley come in last at 0 each.


      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!

    • RE: League General Discussion Thread

      @simon33 said in League General Discussion Thread:

      For anyone who is interested, league games played per year are:
      2013 - 581
      2014 - 520
      2015 - 462
      2016 - 648
      2017 - 404
      2018 - 451
      2019 - 367
      2020 - 365
      2021 - 339
      2022 - 218+

      Seems like when Balanced Mod came out in 2016 there was a big rush. I can’t really explain why the games played dropped off so much this year. Some big players have left the league, had enough of A&A?

      I personally got a bit grumpy about the Paris liberation disincentive, and worse (IMO) the incentive to leave Normandy French. Although I am not sure if others got so irritated by this other than Gargantua.

      Game length definitely a factor. 20 rounds for BM3 is pretty standard. Also level play has gone up. Casual fast and loose won’t cut it anymore.

      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.

      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…

      @andrewaagamer

      I was offering to take allies again at 64. A slight increase. Just so crazy that OOB is so imbalanced!

      The Japan to Europe map gambit is maybe impossible to defend against. With 20+ ftrs, Japan can storm any defense the allies try to put up.

      I will post right now.

      @pejon_88

      oh, sorry, I thought you were just going to go. You are not obligated to let me fix my mistake of forgetting to place a dd to block. It was my screw up. Just sad to see a game turn on a trivial error.

      But! You are under no obligation to accommodate me. LOL.

      No worries either way.
