Official Tournament Rules Thread

[spillblood]

I want to finish the game, even though I'm losing, don't want to surrender. Was tied up due to work and a bad hangover on Sunday. You can watch the full game over the code Feld Grau posted when it's finished.

[Stahlgewitter]

Neither of the Axis players assigned to me checked in, so there's no result to report

[Sjarlatan]

Damn. I was looking forward to this, but then my girlfriend just had to give birth. Well, well.

Crossing my fingers for a second tournament some time!

[Rexxes]

Hi all, Rexxes beat me in the Kharkov scenario fare and square him playing the axis and me the Soviets, congratulations

Our game code was kL9hJT

[Ritalingamer]

OK, maybe the five day round was a little ambitious.

Here are the victors who move on to Round 2:
Rexxes
maxi_s
Danielefc
Kampfgruppe
Stahlgewitter (got a by, neither of his opponents reported)
mk20336
Feld Grau
mblume (by)

The following players never reported in, so they're considered eliminated by default:
dfarrell24
senarmont
Maj_Guajardo
Tschemo
Asterix
Katukov

If I've missed a match by mistake, please let me know.

The good news, though, is now we're down to a tidy eight players.
The next round's matchups will be:
Danielefc vs Kmpfgruppe
mk20336 vs Feld Grau
Stahlgewitter vs maxi_s
mblume vs Rexxes

Also, because we lost so many players, those who were defeated can still participate in a separate bracket!

Here are those matches:
rjh1971 vs Kitsune Cavalry
cosmoruski vs Tankman45210
Reanimator vs spillblood

I'm consulting with Tomislav re: which scenario we'll use next. Stay tuned to this thread for the announcement.

PS When viewing the forums, there should be a "live chat" box at the bottom of your screen. Use that to find and talk to opponents!

Hi Guys,

please find reply of my game with Reanimator:

I was playing Axis, the colleague was playing Allies. Axis won.

Forgive me for the confusion, but who won this match?

My mistake - that should read mk20336 vs Feld Grau. Will go back and fix it in the post.

[Ritalingamer]

Achtung!

Round 2 has begun.

For this round, here are the matchups in the winners' bracket:
Danielefc vs Kmpfgruppe
mk20336 vs Feld Grau
Stahlgewitter vs maxi_s
mblume vs Rexxes

And the other bracket:
rjh1971 vs Kitsune Cavalry
cosmoruski vs Tankman45210
Reanimator vs spillblood

Also, Katukov's opponent never responded to him, so we have room for one more match in the secondary bracket. If anyone who got left out earlier would like to participate, please post here, then you and Katukov can get in touch via PM and arrange a gametime.

I will PM all the players in case they forgot to check the thread.

Here's how round 2 will work:

Everyone will play the Little Saturn scenario from the Stalingrad Campaign. Yes, you absolutely can play single player only scenarios as PVP.
The trick is, only the attackers (Soviets) will get an official score at the end of the scenario. So, to make things even, players will play two matches - once as Soviets and once as the Axis. Whoever gets the highest score as the Soviets wins!

I'd like to have this round of the tournament done before we get into the busy holidays, so the deadline to submit a game is 11:59pm ET, Friday December 19th. So, players, start PMing each other to set up your games!

As always, post the game code here when you're done playing, so we can all view the matches.

EDIT - FIRST QUOTE REMOVED (the first game is finished, the code is 26nu4V).

Also, because we lost so many players, those who were defeated can still participate in a separate bracket!

Here are those matches:
rjh1971 vs Kitsune Cavalry
cosmoruski vs Tankman45210
Reanimator vs spillblood

Will we get a notification by you when the next map is decided? And what about the map for this separate bracket mentioned in the quote above?

[Ritalingamer]

I think Feld Grau needs to confirm his last turn for this match so that other people can view it (we were in turn 8, I already made my move, but last time I checked he didn't confirm the end of his turn/make a move in the last turn.

Yes, he should.

Will we get a notification by you when the next map is decided? And what about the map for this separate bracket mentioned in the quote above?

Yes! I think you must have posted this while I was writing the above post.
The next map is Little Saturn.
You should have a PM sitting in your inbox right now.
