due to the almost dead even poll results up to now it seems that it would be better to let each individual player choose his home setting to be either STD or terminator. I'll send out PMs later to all participants asking for your particular choice

put me down for terminator.

imho, if you are having a tournament that rewards eliminating other players quickly, you should use terminator. There's a much greater incentive to attack. Also, whoever is in a standard no-cards game or on World 2.1 is going to be at a greater disadvantage to score points than in a terminator card+ game, something to think about.

Since it looks like it will be Terminator setting I would like to join now.
Escalating, no fog, circus baby, everybody loves the circus. :P

I can't wait to see NA no cards go, kill kill kill, there will be ones everywhere and plenty of mistakes and dice disasters, oh man how is that gonna work. Or even flat rate will be challenging for me as I never play them much. It is different but I love the Terminator :mrgreen:

Added all above...

Taking into the account I probably messed up by not choosing my more favourite option of terminator as mandatory from start as I was afraid I was the only one ( apparently not! ).. i dont want people who already joined to suddenly back out cuz they might not like std.. so instead.. people who want their's to be terminator will say so.. ill send PMs later day

ok, since it is split halfway, hopefully you will pit all the terminator fans against each other and the standard fans against each other. that way our style can DOMINATE!! :twisted:

if there's a spot put me down for cairns coral coast, flat rate, chained.... my vote is for terminator for the tournament... not sure if the terminator/standard vote is for home ground or the tourney in general, but im tired and might have miss read something... i think all the games should be either standard or terminator, not a home rule call so if standard is the majority so be it (but like i said that might be what your asking, i got confused half way through reading and decided to sign up before i hurt myself trying to think too hard about something i'll read tomorrow and decide was very simple and not complicated :wink:

I have sent for tournament privileges and am awaiting them now...

Also, I will post up the groups soon (i will be using randomizer.org for the random orientation of games) and there shall be terminator and std groups as it is almost dead down the center for each... HOWEVER!!!!!!!!! not all people will match up as many have yet to answer my PM as to there choice and there may a different number of each type therefore it is the randomizer who has placed you in successive groups and the rest is history!...good luck to all!

Thank you XGoToChurchX for the exam well wishes.... it was a quantum physics exam and the first page said "i give marks for only the final answer so if you mess up, learn to not mess up!" .. sheesh

groups have been formatted and the empty slots are for people left who havent responded to my PM and as thus may be inserted in a standard group even with terminator home map but this shouldn't be too big an issue for only 1 or 2 (hopefully) exceptions... games shall be posted in the very soon time i get it organized on paper!
