On some maps it wouldn't really matter, but I see a foggy Stalingrad game that I'd like to join. Unfortunately, I'm not on a whole lot during the break, so I'm not sure whether this will work out. But just thought I'd try anyway.

Hey HA, any chance as we get further into the tourney and there's less players to keep track of that you'd be willing to do a fog rule?


usually i would love to, but already joined my 3... i am the same way, i always give the opponent a look if i join second and go first, but i dont trust anyone to do the same.

whats the point in having fog if its not fog just play sunny games
any ways i have played two won two one spot free if someone is short send me an invite

It's to have the fog apply equally to both players. Playing sunny isn't the same thing at all.

Well anyway, I joined the Stalingrad game: Game 12106674. If anyone wants to join it go ahead. I'd like to see the board though before you play :)

You have not won a game this round. You may or may not be in games that have not started. They should delete any day now. Once they automatically delete you will be set up with random map match ups.

I am sending a message to other players who have less than three games to join, but that is no guarantee,

Remember not to join more than three games and good luck


If you are already in three games and they have started you may ignore this message

Postby HighlanderAttack on Wed Jan 02, 2013 10:58 pm

There are still players needing to get games started. You have won a game in round 25 and do not need to do anything, but based on the stats you played less than two games in round 25 and can fill and try and knock someone out --if you have time.

Remember not to join more than three games this round in total

Thanks for any help.

I didn't check this post first, and joined a game with someone who's already on to the next round. I still have one game left, so wall me if you need an opponent. No specialty maps though.

Game 12106618 finished with a win for me over lascheves.
Game 12106613 finished with a loss for me, win for sbean
Last game is Game 12106669, where I have a clear lead over dapp69er

But regardless how the last game goes, I'm progressing to the next round.

Thanks for a tourny that's gone much better for me than I expected when I joined.

Thanks for helping--seems like the warning is helping to move things along at the end of the round--all those that play less than three games in a round are being helpful too to finish out the round.

I seem to be more interested in CC and have a decent amount of extra time this time of year so hopefully this will really run smooth from here on out

I am one that believes in the courtesy of the 12 hour fog rule--but I am not going to enforce them in my tourneys. I think CC should have a button that says ready and that button is up for half of the first round until everyone is ready, but that is on CC

I may have got the 12 hour fog rule explained in the past, but I can't quite remember. What does it actually mean, and what would be the point?

To me a rule regarding not attacking the first round, regardless of fog or not fog would make more sense, to give both players more of an equal chance. If a round is 24 hours, I can't see what difference 12 hours, 1 hour or 24 hours would do, especially if the players are in different time zones.

The rule is a courtesy to let everyone in the game at least see the drop before someone takes a turn. No other game that I know starts where you do not know where you started. If you don't see the drop and someone takes territs there is no way for you to know where YOU started. 12 hours just gives people time to see their own drop--nothing more--It is a good sportsmanship thing to do. Personally I avoid joining any fog game first, but after I do join I sent the player a wall or communicate in the game for a response before taking a turn--unless I have to take that turn as my time would run out or I won't be on line.

This was news to me, and I cannot remember any foggy games where that rule has been followed. But then most of my foggy games have been on maps where the rule would not have made any difference, like Age Of Realms 2: Magic or Feudal Epic. I have tried a few on the Classic map, but usually foggy games on that map goes very badly for me, regardless of this rule or not.

But it was nice to know about it, and it makes sense. I will try to remember if I play any foggy games where I can attack my opponent in the first round.

It is just a courtesy, not an official rule of any kind. I have followed this rule for about two years now.

Good luck to those remaining.

Im out after 3 games of somewhat poor playing on my part. Had at least a couple of chances to get one or two of my games going, but miscalculated, misunderstood or just picked the wrong strategy.

I had fun, though and got somewhat further than I really expected.

Im assuming there are still freemiums and first time tourney entries left, but just in case, I think I qualify as a freemium as I played the first half or so as such then got gifted by my guild leader with some premium and this was my first tourney, so if noone else is left or I have time to get my chainsaw and cut their web-connections, let me know ;-)

Thx for a great tourney HA.
PM me for an invite to Ikariam, a balanced strategy MMORPG centered on a city-based empire. Help and extra resources from me and an extra tradships and a small science bonus to both of us if you do :-)

You'll be missed Tviorr. It was great talking to you in this thread :)

Oh, and I started as freemium and am on to the next round :D

Map request:

Stalingrad, foggy, chained, no spoils

I want to make up for the loss last round :)
