is this tournament still going?

@Veqryn:

yes the two quarter final matches of the losers bracket are wrapping up. The deadline is tomorrow. Then those winners play and we play the winner of that game for the chance to put Cow in his place once and for all.  1 match is in the twentieth round and the Ancients match is starting round 5 as usual moving at 1/4 the pace of a normal game.  That game would be a tricky call even if they were to play another 2 months.  :roll:

[boldfresh]

deadline day!  :lol:

I’d almost rather lose our quarterfinal game than have to play a game that barely finishes 4 rounds in a month.

My thoughts exactly. I went through it once… I pray I do not have to endure it again.  :|

@Boldfresh:

deadline day!   :lol:

My bad there is one more month for this round… that means the ancients MAY reach round NINE  :-o

[boldfresh]

No wait today IS the deadline for this round!!  The ancients game started a month LATE.  May as well call it now, another month isnt gonna help much.

[Veqryn]

ok, so there are 2 games going right now.
and the 2 winners from that play a new game
and the 1 winner from that, plays against ‘bold-dutch’
and the 1 winner from that plays against ‘cow-veqryn’
and if bold-dutch wins, we have to play them again since it is double elimination
and the winner from that is the grand champ?

so, we might finish in 1 year from now if we are lucky?

i’m not sure i’ll even remember how to play global 1940 by the time my game comes up, but w/e, i’m still in

Veq if you are so sure bold-dutch will win (thanks for the confidence  :-P) then we can just go ahead and start the final now!  :lol:

[boldfresh]

And with COWluck dice you dont even have to know HOW to play the game.  Just move stuff and attack and such.

[boldfresh]

@dairyqryn - would you guys agree to a provisional final starting now, the results of which are only official if we eventually win the game against the winner of the eventual semifinal of the last chance bracket?

[Veqryn]

I’m in the process of moving back to the usa, and will also be going on a honeymoon soon, so I can’t really play for the next 2 months anyway.
We can play if/when the tourney gets to that point.

[boldfresh]

Its obviously time to move to 24 hr posts.

[boldfresh]

@Boldfresh:

Its obviously time to move to 24 hr posts.

Or just call a victor within a few days.

i sent the following p.m. to gargantua

_hi garg,

round 6 deadline was june 30th. the 2 remaining games have not been completed and need adjudication.

wewin vs atlanta axis seems to be coming to the end. you might want to give them a small extension as the game is moving quickly and should be decided within a round(2 max). they are in round 22, allies have big statistical lead, but axis are making a push for 8vcs on the europe map.

the other game is my game so i will not comment on it here. let us know if you want a description as to why we are confident we will win.
the game is only in round5! so an extension wont do anything except drag the tournament down.

kind regards,
allweneedislove_

Well, atlanta axis has this now as the axis(board axis not the team AA) suffered some bad dice in their quest for that last VC. It was a longshot with how many US fighters could get there, but at least we had a shot at it.

[rgp44]

Atlanta Axis defeats the optimistically but poorly named We Win.
