CC Dispatch [Issue 84: 01-12-2012] Masterli

Welcome Comrades to the 84th edition of the Dispatch :)
Hippo is of gallivanting across the world, so I have the pleasure of presenting this issue to you, our dearly beloved readers. :D

Freestyle has the requisite Mafia column, with the intriguing Periodic Mafia highlighted. Saf also discusses a Mafia strategy that could aptly apply to Real Life as well, namely forgoing the use of something (a skill, money & whathaveyou) to gain an advantage in the long run. While his reference is related to the advantages of odd number of players in a mafia, I'm sure we can all see that it can sometimes be a worthwhile benefit to not expose your hands too early across all facets of life.

Masterli also goes into the interview room this issue, where he tries to avoid taking responsibility for the mysterious disappearance of our interrogator.
The TPA3 design contest remains a highlight in the tournament arena, it's an easy way to participate in influencing future tournaments, and is pretty fun to boot! I'm also amazed at how much I can follow of DaveH's Tournament tips, it may seem intimidating at first, but when you look at the output scoring charts he produces, and the logical steps he follows in achieving them, it ends up being a breeze. And heck copy/paste still works if you don't have the head for code ;)

In the Foundry, we are weaved a story of epic proportions by Qyu, while generalhead provides the lighter side to the critics corner!
koontz also has an interesting discussion on the viability of taking Maps off the computer screen, and into your living room!

The main feature of clans, is on the CC3 Quarter-finals which are thoroughly deserving of their tag as the toughest battles on CC!

P.S. And lest I forget, just looked Foundry Competition, what a toughie! I could get the first 5 having played them all, but beta & foundry ones have me stumped!

Hello again Freestylers. Masli is asked about KORT, family, and his nationality this issue. Also, we've got an ongoing question thread for our new admin El_Jefe here so please go drop him a question if you'd like to get to know him better. Otherwise, hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving and please enjoy the holidays.
You Stay Classy, CC.

Hello again my friends, and welcome to your favorite part of the Newsletter, "War Games", where you can find information about CC Tournaments! I have a couple of big things to announce.

First, there is only one week left to get your submissions in for the TPA 3 Cup Design Contest and show off your graphic talents! (Of course there are unfortunate souls like myself who have none, but for the other 90% of the population this is a great opportunity to shine.) Prizes, too!
;)

Second, in this issue I bring you the long-promised interview with Merch313. A number of people have asked me when I'm going to interview their favourite TO, and the answer is here. It comes at a very special time, when Merch rose past HighlanderAttack and became the most prolific tournament organiser of all time. A year ago, I don't think anyone would have believed that HA's incredible record would ever fall, but fall it has (and we mean no disrespect to HA, who's achievements remain spectacular!)

Plus, of course, we have our regular features from James and Dave!

Another issue rolls around. Another set of articles for you to read. So what can we bring you today apart from the same? Well, apart from the usual Maps in development and competition (good luck by the way), Qyu has done a fantastic story for you. Personally, this I feel is one of the freshest things brought to you by the dispatch and is a must read for everyone. generalhead takes a poke at some maps bad/good ideas and how we all respond to them. I give you all something to do at home. ;) Lastly, did you spot the maps in thenobodies80 foundry competition? If not, I bring you the winning image. Stay tuned for more competitions coming out of the foundry very shortly. Some big things are rumoured. This week, I am bringing you a new thing to think about as well.

Each issue, this cartoon will be here untill I choose a different one that is. If you can think of something that is funny and related to conquer club, send me a PM and the best one (IMO) will be on the next issue. :D

Crunch time in Conqueror's Cup action, as all 4 Quarterfinals are as tense as a doorknob.
All Comers Cup action has stagnated with the disappearance of DJ Teflon, while The Newcomers Cup is reaching the end of the Semi-final stage

We also have only 1 game left underway in the Clan League, and it's the biggie between Kort & AoC for the Division 1 Crown. Peddle for the Medal all the way folks!

:D Thanks Leehar It's encouraging feedback and pleasing to know that at least one person is reading it!
