Conquer Club

We will start the next round with a one year bounty opportunity--you must beat me to win the one year--the game number is:
Game 11111111


The password for this round is the same password for this game--if you can figure it out and get into the game it will be your first game of this round and if you beat me you will win the one year premium. Along with that you will get to play in the great numbered game of 11111111. The special first hint is that the pass code is a four letter word--it is both a proper noun an a regular noun. I am off to a sleep study tonight so I won't be around until tomorrow--good luck getting into the game.

I tried a bunch of different ones, then I went, "I know what it is ... It's Risk haha cuz we've been talking about that in the thread."

It wasn't

I saw the post when it was put up last night, then had to leave my computer for a bit. I started thinking, "I bet it's something like 'john', 'mike', or 'chad'...". Then I forgot to come back before going to sleep.

John, Mike and Chad arent regular nouns.

Risk was a good guess. I considered Oreo because I had a sort of weak notion that that would be used as a general term for cookie, but its a bit far-fetched. Besides the nut was cracked while I was considering.

As a non-native English speaker - what are regular a proper nouns?

Chad is as well. Oreo isn't.

Proper nouns are unique identifiers, or the names of people/places/things.

Regular nouns: city, boy, game
Proper nouns: London, Mike, Risk

Official Instructions will not be out until I get home tonight--that being said--the password is now known if you want to start joining your games--if anything is confusing for some of you just wait for the instructions tonight

unfortunately with the password being public because of me some idiot may join that is not in the tourney--if that happens the game will not count and you will have to play another game if needed--I will be doing the checks--now that we are down to a manageable number of players I can really keep an eye on things

You're right about that!...otherwise you would've played the game i'm playing now
but the pw i found on my own... as a non english person
just read the forum...and posted...

I get the mike, though its short for microphone, but whats a john and a chad?


Edit. Found john in the dictionary. - Should have got that one Amazing how getting off my fat arse and using a book can be useful Still cant find chad, though?

CHAD - noun: a small piece of paper that is supposed to be removed when a hole is punched in a card or paper tape

thx. Just noticed that there actually was a link above too

I suppose moron would have qualified too except for the five letters instead of four (as its also my middle name).

Game 11112612 onto round 20

I fell asleep last night and sent the instructions this morning--I will give a few days extra and send anyone not joining games a follow up email

Do u think we can get an update (for the start of RD 20) on how many players r left in da Tourny please?

He's been doing it every round for a while...I don't see why he'd stop now.

Have just finished my games:
Game 11110601 win against [player]ThrushAAX[/player]
Game 11110599 loss against [player]kristijan_mk[/player]
Game 11110598 win against [player]soka[/player]

Surprised no one's complained about the map selection yet ... I guess everyone got all that out of their system several rounds ago. I wouldn't mind seeing a bit more of a selection for just regular fog games (as opposed to fog trench). Maybe they were out there and have been grabbed up by now. Not a big deal ... should make this round pretty interesting though.

I wasn't even chasing girls yet. My life before the news (and girls perhaps) was such a happier and simpler time.
