So how are we supposed to fight for an overall scoreboards if the Mods are not joining games?
Do I need to do something else?

Just two mods had accepted the challenge, then its been quiet.

Sorry lads, my schedule at the moment is pretty shit and I'm at my limit for games at the moment. I'm trying to stick with the same settings for all my games as I can't remember which one is which otherwise.
After a few games finish I'll start some more.

Why do the mods not answer questions in this thread? Directions are not clear?

Why does the scoreboard reflect winning percentages for 7 games? Shouldn´t it be 20? Right now I am only playing 7 based on the scoreboard. I don´t know if I need to play more games to qualify for the prizes.

This information is pulled straight from the Scoreboard:

Scoring is via Whac% (Wins Tokens/Play Tokens) with a qualifier of 7 Play Tokens
Collect 7 Play Tokens + 2 Win Tokens and score a General Achievement
The Top 7 Players with 20 Play Tokens or more win additional prizes

7 plays with 2 wins gets you a GA Medal. The top 7 players with the best % that have 20 play tokens will qualify for the bigger prizes.

Thank you jd, and I understand that. It just seems strange that the scoreboard is ranked based on players with 7 games and not based on players with 20.

I would love to play three more Whac a Mod games - no Mod appeared to like District of Alaska before, but maybe a new appeal? Perhaps Random Map? With settings of No Spoils, Fog, Trench, Adjacent, poly 2?

Feline challenge!

District of Alaska (no spoils, fog, trench, adjacent, poly 2)
Random (no spoils, fog, trench, adjacent, poly 2)
Random (no spoils, fog, trench, adjacent, poly 2)

???

Edit: YAY! all games active, very, very happy feline here! Now if I can just win two of them.... Claws crossed ;)

I'll put this out there. (I probably won't be looking in here often, I forget). If anyone posting is looking for a game, feel free to PM me. I will limit it to three games per person, but I don't have plans this weekend, so I should be able to handle a fair amount of 1v1's.

1) Is the Win Token for winning the game or killing the mod? e.g. 12 player terminator with 1 mod (Dukasaur). If someone eliminates Duk before the end of the game, and someone else wins the game, who gets the win token? https://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=19160104

As far as I know, this has yet to be tested. (Or it already has and I don't know the answer) I would assume that the one that wins the game gets the token

2) If a mod creates a game and drops it, and there is no mod in the game, then others fill in the moderator's spot(s), but it is still listed as a WaM X game, does it still count as a win? see https://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=19161105

These games in the past have not counted, and KA gets right pissed about them

3) If a mod does not join a WaM game initiated by another mod, and the invitation expires, and another non-mod joins the moderator's team, does it disqualify it as a WaM X game? See https://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=19160275 and https://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=19160265

In the past these games have not counted

And 4) If those games are not disqualified as WaM X games, then can mods invite non-mods onto their teams with them?
If this is the case, then it could stretch some of the Mod's game loads

This has been set up in the past to be "Semi automatic". That being, Mods create the tourney games, the games are picked up for the tourney for scoring, and using the password "Whac" makes them appear on the banner. The aim is to have little "hands on" in relations to deleting games or manipulating scoring behind the scenes... why KA gets pissed LOL

MEDALS. YES !! there will be Gold, Silver and Bronze for the top 3 on the board... so someone had better make sure Keefie doesn't win one LOL
These will be awarded by myself after the event has closed.

Appologies for not being so active in the thread, just cracked 100 games and I got a solid 50-100 or so left in me to finish off.

IF ANYONE wants a game, and you can't find any available, hit me up in a PM, I will do my best to accomodate you in a game, but if it is on a map where I have no chance of winning.. look out.. it will be one of mine.

In past WaM events, Mods have never been eligible to win any additional prizes. We've just had to make do with the GA.

So this is based on 7 games. Only the credit prizes are based on 20?

I believe this is incorrect. In the past, I have always created some modless games and thrown them into the mix, because it's totally impossible for the mods to play enough games to provide the community with the number of games it wants or needs to qualify. As far as I know, they have always counted. If KA ever got pissed about it, he certainly never brought it to my attention.

And to be 100% clear, in multiplayer games the win token goes to the winner. The system has no code for recording who actually fragged the mod.

I believe this is also incorrect. Yes, mods are ineligible for the big prizes. Those are reserved for the community (not the mods).

However, in most years there's been a GC in addition to the GA, for mods that hosted above some threshold number of games. I got one in 2014 for hosting 50 games, and I got one in 2018 also, although that one didn't specify how many games it was so I can't say for sure if it was still 50.

No, the top three players with 20 game tokens. I don't understand your confusion, it ain't rocket science.
