@GeneralDisarray I think that save file must be from another PTV game you are playing

@amon-sul welcome back!
the majority is still BM but games of ptv and oob are pretty common too. Bids for BM have moved to around 20 lately (although I think that is a little high).
Thanks.
And what about DOV. What is most common for Japan , rd 1, rd 2, rd 3?
And is it much different in PTV?
-
@amon-sul Based on the games I have played, J3 seems to be the most common but J1, J2, and J4 are all in the mix too. I’ve used J2 through 4 this year and have had all of them used against me.
I can’t speak to PTV as I haven’t played that yet.

First call for playoff signups
If you want to play in the playoff(s) STARTING SOON AFTER 12/31/22 and if you have completed 6 games of balanced mod, 3 games of PTV, and/or 3 games of OOB G40 private message me (preferably) or post to league discussion thread. Then you are signed up and will be in the playoffs. There will be a signup sheet in the rankings spreadsheet where you can confirm you are signed up, and you can see who else has signed up.
If you want to be sure you’re in, post or private message your signup before 1/1/23.
Each game version does have more than 8 qualifying players for the playoffs, and if we have at least 8 signups for each game version, there will be a full bracket of 8 for the championship from the 2022 regular season. If you don’t end up in the top 8, you will still get gripping playoff action!
Players may enter the playoff for more than one version if qualifying with minimum games in each (you have a ranking number in the first column, or 2nd column for BM which requires 6 games done). The overall ranking sheet is so that players playing different versions may be compared (and also to count total number of games for purposes of determining how many games you can play against another individual) and so have no bearing on the playoffs. Your seeding and qualifications are determined from your results IN THAT version’s ranking sheet.
Playoffs are primarily for the enjoyment of players and are single elimination - you lose, you go home and cry. Oh wait, you’re already home. You just cry. Of course it was the dice’s fault.
If you have any questions about how the playoffs work, just send me a PM.
-
Rankings entered on the playoff signup sheet are as of the time the player entered and will not be updated until 1/1/23.
So be aware - the positioning/seeding will probably shift at 1/1/23. Investigate the actual ranking board for the people signed up if you really want to know what seeding you might end up with
-
@gamerman01 Just to be clear, is the ranking based on when the player signs up for the playoffs? So if I finish a game after having signed up, my actual ranking might differ?

Thanks for the question, no, the ranking at the close of the year (end of the day 12/31/22) is the one that counts
-
9 days to go and we already have excellent participation from Path To Victory players!
8 out of the top 10 are already in!!
<see post below about signing up for playoffs>

2nd call for playoff signups (see below)
2022 ends Saturday night!

When I try and do a Test Post when starting a new game, I’m getting a Java error. Ideas anyone? Thanks.
-
It is unsolvable
Just post a save eg. The autosave.
You can copy and paste the history of the turn -
@simon33 I haven’t started the game yet. I’m trying to do the initial test post when setting it up.
-
You don’t need to do that
-
@simon33 Even just hitting ‘Play’ with the info in it gives me a Java error…
-
when using Play by Forum of course
-

It shouldn’t. Something is confused here.
-
Try play by email. I’m unable to play by forum but can by email. And you can still save and upload the save game
-
@farmboy thanks.

On all of the league games, do we get 3 games per version to start?
-
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.

I did some rough work and using some regular expressions, a torch and two squirrels I churned this out https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eGoPApelFeR90te572XhDGt2Gd9BftgKD5m8z-f3TEw/edit?usp=sharing.
At a glance it looks like there were around 75 games lost from players who played last year but not this year, and for those of us playing this year we are down about 50 games from last year.

I think that grumpy is a good default mode to be in.
