The Clan League Cup - TOFU Winners

[jetsetwilly]

With Aticum game we ensured 7th win. IA vs TOFU seems to be very interesting match for the last semifinalist.

Not quite yet but I concede it would need a miracle from the conquer man team to stop you winning 7-6. Certainly been a close one.

[John Deere]

i think we meet again empire! see you next round.

Well-played wolfy ones

Thanks you sir!

[The Voice]

And with AYBABTU done, that makes win #7 for us and we're onto the semi's.
GG's ID!

Nicely played, EMPIRE. Best of luck in your future rounds.

Always a pleasure playing against such a top-notch clan.

Do we have an idea as to when the semi games will need to be posted? I'm just curious because... well because I have to post them.

BTW... Great challenge TSM.... it was a very close mini skirmish and it could have gone either way.

I'm supposed to send home maps this sunday, but I don't yet know who'll emerge victorious between IA and TOFU. TOFU currently leads 5-4 and needs to win 2 out of 4 remaining games, while IA needs to win 3 of 4.

Can anyone tell me if any of those 4 games can be "called"?

And if they are not, do we just ignore the deadline and wait until those games are decided?

Game 11015203 Ardennes is still toying with both sides. Every time one side gains an advantage, the dice flip it back to the other team.

If all three clans are in agreement (and from our side we are) then I see no harm in pushing the deadline back a bit until a clear winner emerges from the TOFU-IA encounter.

Are the organisers OK with this? We're only looking at a few more days probably (say, 20th June) and it will prevent a lot of unnecessary prep being done by both KORT and the losing clan from TOFU or IA.

Cheers

[Rodion]

I don't mind it.

[Swifte]

I would speculate that TOFU probably have Soviet Union and likely Conquer Rome, which would be enough for the win even if we do get Ardennes and Antartica. Think it is reasonable to request a bit of a delay though to be sure.

[Chariot of Fire]

I would speculate that Antarctica will still be being fought this Christmas, lol. So let's hope the other games produce a winner. I think TOFU have the edge in Soviet (what a game that has been!), Conquer Rome and Ardennes.

Quoting DJ Teflons PM to the clan contacts from a couple of days ago:

Hi folks

Provisionally, Semi-Finals should commence on 17 June.

Please send me your semi-final home games by then.

If any of the first round clashes are still undecided by then, we will postpone the start of the IA / TOFU v AOC / KORT clash (but the EMP v PACK semi will start on time).

That should answer the question ?

The IA - TOFU match has been quite tight, with some really epic games ...

[Pedronicus]

Gl all, should be a fun one, but I can see some heartbreak coming from a random tiebreaker!

The heartbreak comes because quad games don't suit random maps. Random triples is a better game.
