-I just cant stand the way the random numbers work on this site anymore and the ridiculous ways to lose or win

I think i have had my first blood pressure spikes, as of late they are beyond messed up at times sucks to win/lose that way,

Have to walk away for a few hours.

My first finished game: Game 10602511
A win against agentcom.
But as it was a no fog game it was in a way a big challenge for us both. He weakened himself too much attacking me first, but he feared I would be too strong next round if he didn't.
A difficult dilemma.

Also Game 10602976 is finished against TFSpilker, with a win for him.
Anyway, thanks that you did decide to arrange the next round.

And I'm happy that I at least continue to the next round.

Yeah, I've done pretty well on the AoR maps, but almost all of them have been fog games. I fail to see how it's even possible to win a non-fog game if you don't go first unless your opponent gets horrible dice. Even bad dice won't usually do it. In this case, I think GR got some pretty good dice in his first round, leaving me with the choice of making a 16 stack and hoping he got bad dice when he deployed 20 or else hoping that I got some good dice and could knock down his reinforcements. My dice were about average, though and he was able to mop up what remained of me in his next turn.

Unfortunately, I wasn't really thinking and signed up for 3 non-fog games and got second turns in all of them. So barring a minor miracle, I'll be out of here this round. Really would be unfortunate. I've enjoyed this tournament and am happy to see that it's moving again. It just might be moving along without me.

Since that question is over, the answer was earlier in the thread and noone got it. Too bad I was already out.

Man I knew that answer to bad. Any other night and I had it but I was making out with my wife. Which is far more fun lol. Anyway on 2 round 16 with to wins going to play my 3rd as soon as bounties r done hopefully I get another shot. Anyone left in the tourney going for most wins on different maps? Is there anyway for me check and c who is in the lead in this category ?

HA has proclaimed that he is an ace with excel. Even so, I don't know of any automated way of figuring this out since the map played on isn't a part of the Tour Stats plug in. I'm guessing that as we get closer to the end of the tournament, players will have to claim this, and he'll just double check the highest claims. With the tournament less than halfway done, I wouldn't worry too much about this.

Tour Stats does report which map was played. But figuring out unique map wins will involve righting some macro code as far as I can tell. I'm sure this is on HA's to do list, but doubt that he's gotten to it at this point in the tournament.

In news that's important to me:

Managed to pull out a win on one of them due to opponent's bad dice on his first turn. So I will in fact see you all (well most of you) in Round 16.

Which gives me the energy to post the advancing stats/graph:

Round 1 had 2507 players
Round 2 had 2057 players, which is 82.050% of the previous round
Round 3 had 1687 players, which is 82.013% of the previous round
Round 4 had 1398 players, which is 82.869% of the previous round
Round 5 had 1147 players, which is 82.046% of the previous round
Round 6 had 932 players, which is 81.255% of the previous round
Round 7 had 776 players, which is 83.262% of the previous round
Round 8 had 642 players, which is 82.732% of the previous round
Round 9 had 543 players, which is 84.579% of the previous round
Round 10 had 450 players, which is 82.873% of the previous round
Round 11 had 385 players, which is 85.556% of the previous round
Round 12 had 325 players, which is 84.416% of the previous round
Round 13 had 274 players, which is 84.308% of the previous round
Round 14 had 226 players, which is 82.482% of the previous round
Round 15 had 193 players, which is 85.398% of the previous round

I am still making my prediction of convergence to 87.5% advancing rate ...
