OK thank you for the reply, I was not sure if i understood correctly your explanation.

[ViperOverLord]

I need to make official roster changes before the next round. But, since it's only a low percent chance that we'll advance to the next round; I'd like to withhold til necessary to just potentially save everyone time.

Ok, thanks. There will be plenty of time once I would ask you for your home games for the next round.

In the following rounds is there any chance we can have links to the games as we do in the Random League ? Benga knows how to do this if you need someone to assist.

Sorry, it is a problem. The url link doesn't work because of the brackets in the tournament name: [LHC]

If somebody knows a way around that, please let me know.

Obviously, one can simply use the game finder and use the label "R2" for all games or this label for the specific clan games: R2 - HH v FOED (in your case).

Lx

[Keefie]

OK, thanks for looking into it though.

Currently 3-3 in finished games against FOED. It's looking like those forfeits will hurt them bad.

[Swifte]

Here's a template you could use... it seems using %5B to replace the [ and %5D to replace the ] gets around the bracket problem.

Round 2 HH v FOED

I think I'm going to rave about you for a bit

Thanks

Round 2 HH v FOED

Great, thanks!

Here we go then:

Round 2 HH v FOED

Round 2 TNC v MAN D

Round 2 ID v TFFS

Round 2 LOTZ v GR

I posted the links here as well: ROUND INFO & RESULTS

In the games being played it's looking like 6-5 or 7-4 (Sydney Metro to close to call) to HH over FOED. Add the 4 forfeits and the handicap advantage and it looks sure that we're through.

Yep, you guys are through.

I'll post an update later today or tomorrow.

[ViperOverLord]

I have Man D. at 6-7 in the games played and then plus the two forfeits that went our way makes it 8-7. Assuming we're going to the next round then, we'll make the following roster changes.

Minus:

Pantheon
Bebis72
Annexator

Add:

Lanlar
Thrawn101
Ukey
HotShot53
fiction
brakh
gas
smider
kchalot
Maisel002
CivProBlows
Buff McKagan
rochmuni

Ok, before I post my updates: I have TNC vs Man D at 6-7 including the 2 forfeits, with games still ongoing. Are you counting on winning those or did I make a mistake somewhere?

Of the 13 games being played, I have us down 6-7 with active games being prognosticated.

I'm sorry, but what is "prognosticated"?

A prediction based upon some sort of circumstantial evidence.

-
The game rosters for round 2 have been updated, reflecting the completed games.

There are still 7 games ongoing.

Hey Lindax,

I am a bit confuse with the Handicap and the number of game to win. For LOTZ vs GR, how does it work?

If I understood correctly, since the handicap is 2, GR has to win 2 more game than LOTZ to win. But what happens if the final score is LOTZ 7 - GR 8. does LOTZ win or does it means we have to go to the tie-breaker for a final score of 8-8 8 8LOTZ move on next round) or 7-9 (GR move on next round)?

Thank you

From the OP:

Example: Suppose two clans meet in round 1. Clan A has a handicap of 16 and clan B has a handicap of 9 (comparable to KORT playing Dynasty at the moment). Over 15 games that means that clan A would have to win 2 more games than clan B (decimals will be ignored in this final calculation). So, if clan A wins 9 games and clan B wins 6 games, clan A would win the round. Now, what happens if they would end up with a score of clan A 8 wins and clan B 7 wins? If the game difference is an even amount, as in this example, and the score ends with 1 game difference of the amount, a tiebreaker is needed because the clans should play an even amount of games, i.e., 16 instead of 15 games.

So, in your example you guys would play a tie-breaker.

Lx

Lo and behold, LOTZ & GR indeed need to play a tie-breaker.

I set it up and sent the necessary info to the clan contacts.

All but 1 game have been finished and we have a tie-breaker game going between LOTZ and GR (1 LOTZ player needs to join still).

The following clans are through to Round 3, the semi-final:

• HH
• ID
• MAN D

Maybe you guys can start thinking about your home games.

I'll update the MAN D player list.

Hey Lindax, sorry this is my first time looking at this thread so please help me out.

How did Man D get 8 points last round? There is nothing for the handicap column so all the scores should be true numbers right?

Sorry and thanks,.

When I click on the link for TNC vs Man D, I have the score 7-6 over 13 games. Are there 2 games that are not showing up in the game finder?

There were 2 games not filled by TNC and thus forfeited. You can see that in the game rosters.

Thanks Mob D. That was probably the only way we were going to beat you. We ended up filling our games last minute with limited options as many of our original 16 players listed were no longer on our roster.

[shoop76]

ID 8
TFFS 7

Plus the 1 handicap. Doesn't that make it 8-8. A little confused about this handicap thing.

ID had to win with at least 1 point difference, which they did.

The truth is that the handicap system didn't really come out, because the clans participating were all close together, except for LOTZ. I hoped more higher and lower ranked clans would join, then it would make more of a difference....
