Top of the Class [Round 7] [Abandoned]

Post by dowian2 »

After two years of playing in this tourney, it seems wrong to let it go when we're getting close to the finish line.

http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=88396#p2045805

From this point forward, I will send out 2-3 subjects per week, in an effort to get this tournament moving. You will not receive more than ten games per week. If anyone is uncomfortable with the increased game load, please PM me.

It will take me a week or so to get my feet under me on this one, so don't expect games immediately. I want to be sure I'm comfortable with the status of the tournament before moving forward.

Re: Top of the Class [Rescued] [Round 6]

Post by dowian2 »

One minor rules change: Tupence appears to have put himself into games when there were an odd number of people in a class. As I'm still participating in this tourney, I will not be doing that - a randomly selected player will get a bye if necessary. For example, there are currently three people taking Biology; if each person plays five games, that would be an odd number of spots, so one of the three would only have four games.

Re: Top of the Class [Rescued] [Round 6]

Post by dowian2 »

A few other things I've thought of/come across:
  • If you end up as the only one taking a class, I will request that you to take any other class of your choice that is being played.
  • If only one person needs to retake a class, I will have you retake it against players who have passed it; it will not affect their score.
  • Tupence did not update the "Roll Call" list after round 5, so some people have taken classes in round 6 despite not being a part of that class. I will not redo those games; if you played someone who wasn't supposed to be taking it, your credit remains the same. But I've updated the roll call on the tournament page.
  • I'm working on putting together a bonus structure for passing all classes, as only rounds 1 and 5 are in the thread anywhere. I have requested that the tournament organizer usergroup put forth suggestions, as I'm an active participant in the tournament and significant changes to scoring should not be done by me mid-tournament.

Post by dowian2 »

I've decided to push this tournament forward by having the X-Curricular game for round 6 now. This will let me know who's still playing without forcing me to reconfigure as many later games.

The way I see it, the 17 people who accepted invites to the X-Curricular games are moving forward in this tournament. As soon as the last of those is over, the next two classes will come out.

All round 6 language invites are out. Psychology/Environmental Studies/American History in the next batch - if you didn't initially respond to the PM and have a preference what you're taking, let me know what you want before I send those games out or random.org will pick for you.

From Tupence post of Sat Feb 04, 2012 4:33 pm (http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=88396#p2045803), no scores have been updated and ironically you are still in first place...
I won 4 games against ZionT and Theldin (Round Six AGAIN?!?!?), yet no movement nor score change...

Let's get this updated...

I'm sending out some makeup games for kennys777, as I'm not sure what happened in the first half of this round. These sets of games (which have his name in the title) will only count for kennys777's grades.

Retakes for Math, English Language, English Literature, Geography, Chemistry, and Physics will be out this weekend.

Post by dowian2 »

It appears I've erred and sent out 5 games for retakes instead of four. Therefore, everyone gets an extra chance to pass this round of classes; If you win 2/5 or 3/5, your grade goes up one grade, and if you win 4/5 or 5/5, you increase by two grades.
