GARGANTUA'S $200 TOURNAMENT OF EXTRA DEATH AND PAIN (TripleA Only) 2xELIMINATION

[Degrasse]

Garg,
  Sadly, we lost our fourth idiot to his sense of responsibility to attend class and study.  Working on getting the third person to register tonight.

Thanks,

[seth4god]

I contacted surprise attack to try and fill in for my deserting teammate.  :roll:

I’d be willing to take on someone else as well should I be contacted about such.

[Septimus]

Can I stop trying to figure out rule #7, or is it an infringement on the rules ?

Let’s all have a good lucky tournament.
May the Dice be with us.

[Gargantua]

Take all the time you need. :)

[Veqryn]

When do we begin?

I am on vacation starting friday, and lasting til next sunday.  (18th - 27th)

And I probably won’t have internet access during that time.

You should make a “planned absences thread”

And also a rule about how often people have to post turns during a week.  Otherwise people could go absent when losing.  Failure to play enough during a week, means auto-losing.  (I’m only mentioning this because it has happened in every single one of the 4+ tournaments previously organized for aa50 and nwo, on triplea)

How about this:

Each player has to log at least 3 moves within one week, or his team forfeits?

@Make_It_Round:

How about this:

I’d do it by team instead of player.

Minimum 3 full turns per week as Axis.  Minimum 5 full turns per week as Allies. 
Something like that.

Love the idea Veqryn! Was really worried about this when signing up. Don’t want to play 3 or four turns and then the other team just stops posting…

[Cow]

Where do we post?

[Gargantua]

IF people aren’t posting “enough” report it.

Tournament rule #1, means I’m in charge, and as I said, if people aren’t going to participate, WITHOUT notice, then we can cut them lose from their game :)

Each team has to log at least 3 moves within one week, or his team forfeits?

Sounds like a fairly reasonable consideration to me.  Let’s hope this is maintained as a standard, and if it is not, some games will be auto-wins. :)

[techroll42]

Guys I’m not going to be available with consistency until the end of June…school happened.

[theROCmonster]

Does 3 moves mean Russia, US, and China? Would that count?

[Gargantua]

Look… as long as forward progress is happening, no one is going to freak out.

Even if you drop from your team for awhile,  just put in what you can put in, that’s all anyones asking.

[Gargantua]

EVERYONE PAY ATTENTION TO THIS PLEASE.

OK, so my partner Gliven has just backed out of the tourney because of time commitments. IS there anyone else who doesn’t have a partner yet?

[Degrasse]

Clauswitz’s Idiot Apprentices has its third member, we are now Degrasse, GenericUsername, and OriginalUsername.

[jim010]

No bidding for sides?

[Gargantua]

I did specify NO BID in the tournament rules, but wan always adjust for this in the second round if there is consensus.

What type of bid do you generally see made/placed Jim?

[Gargantua]

We can* not WAN.

@Vance:

I tried reinstalling tripleA a couple times and it didn’t upgrade from version 2.7 to 2.8.  However, I was able to do it another way.  Click the “download maps…” button that you see when you first open TripleA (third button up from the bottom on the right) and then choose “World War II Global” from the list and it will give you the version 2.8.

I am having problems getting 2.8.  I don’t get anything after I hit download maps and list games.  I guess that I need an url.  I don’t see an option for World War II Global either.  Is it possible for Veqryn to have a direct link to the 2.8 map so i can download the zip file and place in my maps folder?  Is anyone else having problems?
