Thanks for the update. Enjoy your travels :)
Summer/Fall Spring 42.2E Tournament Discussion/Results Thread

Just curious as to how you manage the different PEBM games; is the info about the game stored in it or do you have to write down the post number and e-mail of each opponent? Or is there a way to setup different configuration folders to save the information?
Thanks,
Kirk S.

It’s basically the same as a play by forum game, depending on how you want to set it up you have the dice rolls sent to everyone’s email or you can just pick one person to be the record keeper for the dice roll confirmation.
We used to just include the relevant info in the game save name, who was playing what round/nation was up currently etc.
There is more functionality built into tripleA now than when I used to play though. Perhaps someone else with more experience can answer your Q.

If I understand your question correctly then…
When you save the game file from the previous turn posted then load that game in TripleA that game info is loaded in automatically and you can play your turn. Then when you download and load in the game save file from opponent #2 that info will be loaded into tripleA, then same for opponent 3, 4, etc.
Basically the Save game file that gets posted with each turn carries the info for that game so when you load it you don’t need to reenter any information.
Hope that helps.

Axis 4
Allies 1#Balanced
-
finally done with ours!
-
Well it might end up being 2 to 4, as I’m getting fairly well rocked by the Allies :-D Magic Q’s fighter wall has been fierce!
Though I wouldn’t really use my performance there as any kind of yardstick to measure the overall balance, as my play has been consistently abysmal hehe. If anything it demonstrates what a savage beating the Axis can take and still hold off the 10 VC win by Allies, just from blundering around.I’d go pretty high on the bid if playing the other side,
-
allies 2 and axis 5 then :D
-
I was hoping for some sort of shortcut which had an option for a different folder which saved the information. So, I would need to make sure that I change the options on PEBM for each save game or does it come from the save game?
BTW… as far as the bid goes, adding units to Caucasus to wipe out Ukraine does give Russia an extra turn. I still like the idea of a bomber as it doesn’t totally unbalance the game…
Just the inane ramblings of someone that has never played a game past round 2… I lose, you win. It’s all good to me to just have someone that will play… ;-)

Calvin, DM, (B_E - Q winner), and Cow can start the bidding whenever they are ready.
Please start game threads with
S02 - etc…
For round 2.
Good Luck!

I’m fairly sure I could push out the Technical win for several rounds yet, but I will concede when Magic Q takes Berlin just to expedite things.
:-D -
Well I learned the hard way if you get a bid put 2 inf egypt and the rest for russia round 1. Extra 4 inf for ukraine is fun, forces germany to ignore it or pull in tanks or air (go go aa gun).
-
In the interest of time, and so as not to stall the next round of the tournament, I will concede.
Magic Q over Black Elk.
-
I concede to wittman. God a bit diced in Russia and Egypt and lot almost all my air force as Germany.
-
Calvin, DM, (B_E - Q winner), and Cow can start the bidding whenever they are ready.
Please start game threads with
S02 - etc…
For round 2.
Good Luck!
