Reason I ask is that Im a noob, but also that Im excited by being in the tourney as well as it going surprisingly well. - Okay, I realize that with the tournament setup and the number of players its not going to be an exactly rare occurance that someone goes 3-0, but still, Im tingling to find out how many are in that, and indeed how many first time tourney players and for that matter freemiums are in the mix. And my third game finishing, Id of course be interested to learn how many players that still have games to finish.

Im winning my third game in the next few rounds. I suppose I should wait registering it until I have actually won it, but barring actual IRL mayhem, I shouldnt even be able to jinx it at this point;-) I will wait for the kill before doing so, but I love statistics, so that will do wonders for keeping me entertained the next couple of weeks.- Is there a place a freemium noob like me can go look for them?

Regards on a most excellent tourney and great initiative, even if it does last 2 years. I will certainly be here until someone(s) grind my nose, face and bones into (the) dust ;)




You have to go to plug ins and add ons and download tour stats

I will have updates probably tonight--I don't spend as much time on cc when I have my child--I am usually on after he goes to be or in the morning before he wakes up.

If you only have to win 1 out of 3 games, seems everyone can move on since that's less than 50%.
Is the 2nd round going to be different? You may have already written this in the rules so I'll look, just wondering cause it seems everyone could stay in forever if you only have to win 1 out of 3.


With this amount of people--the evolution of the tourney will most likely move to only two games allowed until we get under 200 players or every other round--but this will not occur until round 4 or 6 --most likely six as I want to get most of the GA Medals out of the way. No matter what we end up doing I have to expect this tourney will last 2 years so be ready to be in it for the long haul.


With all due respect, HA, I would request that you not change the format. I realize that it will speed up the tournament, but those were the rules when we all signed up and everybody knows (or should know) that the tournament will go on for a long time. I don't think such a drastic change to the rules mid-way through the tournament is fair to the players (it certainly would be more helpful to the more experienced 1v1 players than the less experienced).

Not sure if this has to be reported, but here goes.

Freemium and first time tourney.

3 and 0

Winning Streak: 3, number of 3 win rounds:1

8399092
8398910
8386836


Thx for the stats directions. I will look into that and see if I can figure it.

I could. That was actually surprisingly easy.

If I read the stats right, "only" a bit over 2300 players joined so far. 183 players are out due to 3 (or more ;-)) losses. A number of players have managed to play too many games as well, so well over 200 players are out, while hmmm about 200 players have yet to start a game.

Seems feasible that we will be 2000+ left after round 1, but likely no more than 2100?

I havent re-read them, but as i recall there were several mentions that the format would be subject to changes and different setups for different rounds...?

Please note that I did say due to the evolution of the tourney set for 750-1000 players up tp 2500 that I might move to 2 games during even rounds. I also did away with the second chance games. That being said--I know I will be around for the next 2-5 years and if the players want to stay with three games per round and just keep it the way it was meant I have no problem keeping it that way. So, I will play it by ear but I would like to hear from people in the thread and not the pm how they feel about a reduction in the games you are allowed to play from 3 to 2 in even rounds or just keep it the same. Maybe in round three I will do a poll. No matter what if I do change you will be given fair warning.

I'd support reducing even rounds to 2 games until there are only 200 people or so remain. Throws a fun twist to the tourney too.
taking a break from cc, will be back sometime in the future.

Being 1 vs 1 games sure 3 games are longer but it certainly makes it more fun to be able to play so many more games within 1 tournament and meet new players and play on different maps etc so yes I would vote for 3 games per round:)

It's not halfway, we're in round 1 of 2 billion (yes, I exaggerated). Other rounds (those that would be affected) have not yet started. HA did say he may adjust rounds depending on the number of people who joined.

The tourney will be HA's LIFE for the next 6 to 9 months as it is, he deserves a chance to minimize his time obligations by reducing gamecounts.

Plus, this wouldn't be the first tourney that changed rules after starting.. in some cases, they change much closer to the end.

So... the winner will playing in this tourney for five years?

What accomodations (if any) should freemiums expect if they also want to join HA's 1000th Tourney?

We are not in a hurry. Are we? I don't mind playing this tourney for long time (supposing I manage to stay in it, of course). Also, with 3 games luck effects are minimized. It's a lot more difficult to have bad luck in 3 games than in 2.

Anyway, probably a poll would be the best way to know the general opinion.
