I never got into a game and I registered and am on the player list.

I'm also in a game that has started.

Why are not all games starting at once?

by **Gilligan** on Wed Jul 17, 2013 6:20 pm

I see 128 games, times 5 = 640 players?

by **chapcrap** on Wed Jul 17, 2013 6:26 pm

I guess I'm in a game. Didn't realize it and didn't see it when I searched earlier either.

Yes, 128 * 5 is, in fact, 640.

128 * 5
128 * (10 / 2)
(128 * 10) / 2
1280 / 2
640

128 * 5
(100 + 20 + 8) * 5
(100 * 5) + (20 * 5) + (8 * 5)
500 + 100 + 40
640

Well, that explains the big bump in active users on the scoreboard. I trust this was an accident, not the admin trying to falsely boost numbers.

Well, Id imagine if they were going to falsely boost the numbers, they'd be able to do it a little easier/better than that. Im hoping it was just a typo in the name or something

Poking around the new recruits in the tournament, it seems like it's a bit more common than typos would allow for. There are some NR's that have not played a game in quite some time, but have visited since their Havoc Board Tourney game started (but not taken a turn). Would love to hear from the admins on this one! I foresee many deadbeats in the 1st and 2nd rounds.

Well your new recruit is legit and just joined the site. Ours havent visited CC in over 3 years.

Some emails were sent out to members that haven't played in a while announcing the Tournament, those who replied were inserted into the tournament (as well as given instructions on how to play). We're not inflating the scoreboard, but we are looking to bring back some old members.

by **codierose** on Sat Jul 20, 2013 6:18 pm

please can someone explain what the hells going on with this tournament.
how did i get into a game i was not invited to or joined ?
how did a guested player get invited ?
how did a non active member get invited also ?
please remove me from any involvement in this tournament.
if this is another April fools creating Havoc not funny
i can deal with the multi or the deadbeat but having to put up with a mod :evil:

just not funny

I ended up with two inactives in my game. I agree that this was a failure of a tournament organization. Hopefully this is no reflection on how the site is planning on moving forward with other new 'ventures'....

I've got 1 too that hasn't played since last year

5 players in my game, 3 of which missed their first turns, so ill just use them as shields against the other person I am playing against because once they all drop, i will be well protected, is this wrong?

There's only one inactive in our game; that strategy won't work very well...

Game 12992842

5 players in my game, only me and another player are actually playing. One person hasn't been on the site since July 1st, and another since Sept. 2012. What the $%*@ is going on with this tournament?

The only other player who's active last played a game in December 2011, so the tournament did its job in bringing back folks to the site, but it's a 1v1 game now.
