"3a - Each player will belong to 1 of 5 tiers based on their 2019 league year game results, after completing 3 games. Cutoffs for tiers will be at 5.50 PPG for tier M (Master); 4.50 for tier E (Elite); 3.50 for tier 1; and 2.50 for tier 2.
Players will be awarded points as follows:
Win over tier M, E, 1, 2, 3 earn 8, 7, 6, 5, 4 points, respectively
Lose to tier M, E, 1, 2, 3 earn 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 points, respectively
Point totals are divided by # of games played to arrive at PPG (Points per game)Points awarded are changed when a past opponent rises or falls a tier - that is, every player’s current point total reflects the current standing of their past opponents. Until 3 games are completed, players will be assigned to tier 3 by default unless they completed 3 games in 2018, in which case they will continue with that past ranking until obtaining a new 2019 ranking (3 games completed)."

Okay great! Thanks for that explanation. I played (and lost) 3 league games in 2016, to RegularKid, Mr. Roboto and Talleyrand. But I’d guess that given the gap in time I’m unranked.
Who’s willing to hand me my first butt-kicking? (I should mention for fear of being taken as a waste of time, I’m not bad at the game, I have a firm understanding of standard moves etc but those are all excellent players, or were, and I do remember having particularly horrid dice in one of those games.

@The-Shrike I’m happy to take you on for your first few games if you want. Do you prefer axis or allies?
-
@wizmark Thanks! I have no preference; although you’d have to educate me on bids. My understanding is that it’s quite common for Allies go for a bid of around 20?
Also, if I’m simply concerned with improving my rank by getting in games (even losses) I suppose we could start now instead of waiting until the new year. If you want to set up the game I’ll take my turn before bed tonight (EST). Busy for the next 6-7 hours but I’ll pass back to you before 10pm EST.

Balanced mod 3 usually has bids of 6-8. Still sees a slight majority of Axis wins.
-
@The-Shrike I could take an extra non-league game.
-
@LennardF Hi, if you want to set it up I could use the practice!
-
Sounds good, I’ll take Axis then. Can you message me your email?
-
Im looking for a game. PM if interested.
-
I have 3 games going as Allies, would like a league game as Axis if there are any takers. If you’d like to check with my current opponents regarding my skill level, I’m sure they can give you assurances that I am thoroughly mediocre ;P

I have room for more games still. Tier 1 or better please.

I’m up for a new game

@Elvis66 Give me a week or so to finish one of my four games and I’ll take you on; I’m new to competitive play as well. But I can barely keep my games straight as it is so just need a little time.

I suspect you’re humble.
If you on the contrary prove yourself, I’d be interested in a game or two with you. ;)

@trulpen lets start with one game and see how that one goes before I get myself in too much battles!!!

I entered the league this autumn. Had no clue about tiers and such and just kick-started some games. I did learn though that at this point, if aiming to enter the L20 A playoffs, I need to restrain myself from only playing tier 1 or higher and abstain from taking on greens (less than 3 games played so considered to be tier 3 by default regardless of playing strength). These two factors made me miss out on L19… along with pure neglect and sloppiness (due to stress and lack of sleep) and keeping an unsound number of simultaneous games (+10) in the air. If it was not for this, I’d take on your challenge without a blink!
