Kingm's #21 Medal Hunters (OTP Wins)

[betiko]

ok thanks, so got bleed green and spino replaced.
Still missing a replacement in the tofu2 team who is up in 2 rounds at the same time, so 6 games need a 4th player.

Also wanted to tell OTP1 that gambler was moving out this week end, I kind of forgot and that's why he's still not accepting his invite. He told me last week that he would directly have internet in his new place, sorry if the start is delayed because of that, he should probably be on tomorrow or something.

jcarter1 is our replacement!

still 3 teams in the GA medal race; looks like TNC will be 1-1 with feudal epic for tie break!
and OTP vs PACK has 1 game clearly going for OTP while the other 2 can still go both ways. important turns comming up, go dice!!!

I'm updating the above post every day checking if new games have finished by the way.

[Chariot of Fire]

Thanks mate, nice job

[dana1971]

Our set is. Over, it was a tough one.

[freakns]

TNC won decider on round limit

PACK vs us tough one... both remaining games leaning our way, but nothing is certain.

interesting fact btw, in both groups team 7 is unbeaten

very well done TNC! yeah seems like it's lost for us on both games vs you dirty freakns! that was a hell of a challenge, all 3 games have been leaning one way and another all the time with spectacular dice fails/dice miracles all the time.
USA apocalypse was hell of interesting, we've been down to 3vs4 players all game but they had 3 players with a radioactive malus so both teams were deploying 9! never thought how interesting the strategy could get on this map with those settings! I'm still mad for missing those eliminations on japan and apocalypse grrrrrrrr!! we just needed to win one of these 2!!!

PS: I think it's BS that nuclear games are not allowed in the clan world. no strategy and only luck, seriously?? we're pretty much all clan guys playing this tournament, and I'm pretty sure all of us are doing some risk management with spoils. I think the nuke strategy in team game is great, + adding trench to that even more.

[Chariot of Fire]

Agree with you 100%. Nukes take far more strategic thinking than any other game type. Also the concept of a 'lucky 3 card set' does not really exist in nukes, coz often a 3 card set contains territories owned by your own team. Not sure about trench for clan games - they can go on for ages - unless they are introduced with a compulsory round limit so that games do not delay progress in tournies.

And yeah....isn't USApocalypse a great map! Always a fascinating strategy when silos can be -1 or +3 depending on the number held.

[kizkiz]

Not sure about trench for clan games - they can go on for ages - unless they are introduced with a compulsory round limit so that games do not delay progress in tournies..

Played plenty of clan games with trench, including an entire war and another one coming up. Barely any went above 20 rounds, so no real delay. A round limit makes sure anyway.
We've also been discussing this and feel that these settings make for some incredibly tactical battles, as mentioned already.
The combo of trench and nukes really makes you think and work as a team

[betiko]

ok guys, I will probably send the next and final round of phase 1 sometime this week.
As I already said when I took over, just the best 2 teams of each group make it to the final stage.

group 1:
OTP is qualified and still in the GA race.
Team 1, 4, 5 are still in the race for the second place (though if team 1 wins they're automatically qualified)

group 2:
TNC is qualified and still in the GA race
teams 2, 3 (facing each other and still undecided) and team 8 that needs a miracle are still in the race for second place

[freakns]

let me get this straight... if COF wins next round, im getting the medal. god... thank you!

[betiko]

You would still need to win your round! :p

[freakns]

it doesnt change a fact that he will be playing for my benefit too

[betiko]

these are the last standings, I would like the 2 remaining match ups to finish before sending the new invites though...

Pedronicus and Dako won't be returning after the current round, so I think our whole team is out of the tourney. Thanks for an interesting experience!

?? why not?

because we already won the round vs them! (started all 3 games, good guesses on the drops + good dice..)
this was the last round of phase 1 and you guys are eliminated, so no need for replacements or anything krikee.

on group A there is no more suspense, the 2 teams advancing are pack and otp1. sorry for the teams that were doing good and had a little hope (a couple of teams could ve advanced if we had lost and they had won).

[Chariot of Fire]

Ah right, thanks. Yeah, starting 2nd in all 3 games is a tough hurdle to overcome as we're finding out right now.

Goodbye krikee & team - thanks for stepping in when you did to keep this tourney alive and preserve the integrity of the scoreboard.

[betiko]

Yup thanks tofu2, and thanks otp2 for replacements, really helped!

well done OTP1! if TNC loses this round, the GA medal is yours!
As already said, group A is already decided; OTP1 (7-0) and PACK (6-1) advance to the final, all remiing games are just for points, honour and medal hunting unique kills! (we will have to take our revenge in the finals freakns!!! lol)
Group B has TNC in the finals no matter what; second place is between TOFU1 who just needs to win this round; WAR and FISO need to win and to see TOFU1 lose, and also see if they can win on "goal average". There could be a triple tie for the 2nd place, but it will be hard to keep TOFU1 out of the finals!
