Will I be seeing you, or are you sending Lord Arioch to sleep with the fishes?

I hope to send you Lord Arioch but that remains to be seen. I feel good about 3 of the maps but Arioch has a troop advantage in the other 4. ISwimmerdude99 wrote:Will I be seeing you, or are you sending Lord Arioch to sleep with the fishes?
I also think I will win, but is it not a bit premature? like I turned games that I was behind even more then chanakam is behind in a few of those you have given me, but I have not checked after the last turn yet, so maybe he has said GG?prismsaber wrote:Bracket Updated - April 19
Congrats to Kingm for advancing.
At some point today I'll send out invites for kingm/josko and chanakam2020/kevi.
prismsaber/aaronvollrath postponed until April 24. Thanks to aaronvollrath for working with my schedule.
By the way, to current players and any lurkers, I plan to create a classic-style doubles double elimination tournament similar to this one in a couple weeks so keep an eye out for that if you're interested.
When declaring a winner on a map I look for a 2 to 1 power score. Sometimes I'll pick a winner if the ratio is less than that IF there is a large difference in reinforcements. For example, your ratio in High Seas is less than 2 to 1 but you have eliminated blue and have protected your only vulnerable color (pink) so that it would be nearly impossible for chanakam to win that game. I declare the winners a bit early to keep things moving because I don't really want to run a 6 month+ tournament. That being said I have asked myself what if I'm wrong...well somehow, I would have to make that right. But hopefully that won't happen.Kingm wrote:I also think I will win, but is it not a bit premature? like I turned games that I was behind even more then chanakam is behind in a few of those you have given me, but I have not checked after the last turn yet, so maybe he has said GG?prismsaber wrote:Bracket Updated - April 19

It's about to slow down more to your liking after this round. If you check the bracket, those who made it to Upper Bracket Round 3 will effectively get a bye. And the more time spent in the Upper Bracket the more byes you get. Those already in the Lower Bracket will have to win series after series with little to no downtime. Hopefully it will make for an epic run for someone.Kingm wrote:I did not see that before now, but I will be up for that dubs tourny for sure mate, I like this tourny, only thing I would complain about is thats is going to fast lol, but you wanted a fast tourny you saidprismsaber wrote:Bracket Updated - April 19

Heck I myself might not have a partner unless I can coax one of my old friends like Agonzos out of retirement.
