Okay, we have all our acceptances, and we have received tournament privileges. Ready to start, but I have one question for you guys.

In the past, I always just randomized the player list once, and then everybody in every game was placed in the same order.

Would it make it more interesting if I was to randomize the order separately for each game, so that your turn doesn't always come after the same person?

agree It would seem to be a fairer way doing it

[Culs De Sac]

going after the same person would be irrelevant based on map positioning regardless as it would already be random. I dont know if play order has any effect.

(from PMs)

absolutely

Hi Dukasaur, yes I vote for the "full random" concept, in which everygame has a different order. Makes the whole thing "more random". Thanks! Cheers

Okay, we have 3 strong "yes" votes and one "maybe/no" vote, with 5 members abstaining.

The ayes have it! Play order will be randomized separately.

[Dukasaur]

Games have been sent out!

We hit a bit of a snag, as Lunar War is restricted to only 8 players. I've sent a message to PaRKoN to choose a new map ASAP.

Best of luck, everyone! You're already champions!


Also, this is my 97th!
