[Hath]

Can we get an updated scoreboard for round 2?

Yes, I'll put one out tomorrow morning, still 3 active games going in batch 1.

[Hath]

Scoreboard update for Round 2, Batch 1 posted.

The following games in Round 2, Batch 1 are not included in the scoring because they have not yet completed:

Game 8872851 - Division 1
Game 8872869 - Division 2
Game 8872870 - Division 2

Thanks Hath. I appreciate it.

[amazzony]

I couldn't get back on track as soon as I was hoping but I should have time tomorrow to send out the last batch of this round. We are still more or less in schedule then because I am hoping games to be over by the end of May which means we have June and July to play the finals (new season of TPA begins in August according to current plans).

[amazzony]

Batch 4 sent out.

[amazzony]

Batch 4 reminders sent out, only person who needed inviting was maasman (3 invites).

So, Hath, here's for you a list of players who you need to deduct points from at the end of the round:
joeaggie98 (-2 points)
whakamole (-3 points)

[amazzony]

All round 2 games are active now, currently there's 40 of them left: 13 for division 1, 11 for division 2 and 16 for division 3.

[whakamole]

wait, why am i being deducted 3 points? i've joined every game as soon as i get the pm...

*edit: i see that i'm a repeat offender and i'm POSITIVE that i haven't missed the boat at all, let alone more than once. i'm on several times a day and always join games asap.

please explain if there's something to the invite/game notification system that i'm missing, because i swear that i've joined every game as soon as i was aware of it. if i haven't been aware of it, there must be some misunderstanding. i hope to have my penalty reduced if not eliminated and make sure the process goes more smoothly for all of us from here on out.

thanks-
whak

I am really not sure what to explain besides more that I said in the private message about the messages not using auto-join links. During batches 2 and 3 you didn't join the games that were sent to you by message (everybody had 48 hours to join the games) so I sent out invites which meant penalty that I added after round 1 (I made a post about it, put it in the first post of this topic and mentioned it in a message I sent out to everybody who advanced to round 2).

[whakamole]

Fair enough; the post here was put up before I sent you the pm so we could discuss more fully. Thanks for your time in discussing and thanks for running the tournament. I know it ain't easy and I'll do my best to stay in line and minimize your headaches from here on out

[theheadholes]

sorry to report but I am going to have to take a break from conquer club... hope a reserve can fill my spot

Don't worry, discussion is sometimes part of the tournament

sorry to report but I am going to have to take a break from conquer club... hope a reserve can fill my spot

If you happen to advance to the finals then I will remove you from the tournament.


And an update how far we are with round 2. There are 20 active games from batch 3 and 4: division 1 has 8 games, 5 for division 2 and 7 for division 3.

[Hath]

Scoreboard updated with all games through Batch 2.

We've 18 active games remaining.

Game 8988562

Steel sweeps.

[wolfmaster]

just a question, you post the setup as below

Setup
This tournaments is looking for 144 players (+ reserves).
Tournament consists of 3 rounds. Every round consists of divisions of 12.
Everybody plays 12 games per round.
Top (highest scoring players) from every division advance to next round: in round 1 top 3 from each division, in round 2 top 2. In finals, winner - British Isles Terminator - is decided.
Divisions will be put together according to players’ points (score is checked an hour up to a few days before first games are made).
All games are made with the List Randomizer of http://www.random.org

is there something missing somewhere ?
round 1 we have 12 division of 12
round 2 we have 3 division of 12
if base on the statement in round 2 top 2 advance
in round 3 is only a division of 6, this would clash with the statement "Every round consists of divisions of 12"

[amazzony]

Yep, I have written the introduction incorrectly. It should say that rounds 1 and 2 have divisions of 12, finals will have 1 division of 6. I will correct it. Thanks for pointing it out!

[freyme]

How many games still going for round 2?

[amazzony]

Me, too, actually

[Hath]

Scoreboard updated with all but 2 games being completed. The games not counted in the scoring are:

Game 8988545 - Division 1
Game 8988579 - Division 3

The penalties to whakamole and joeaggie98 have been deducted.

Neither of the remaining games will have an impact on the top 6, as Enormastitz can only gain 3 points and the division 3 game will divide points between EvilSemp and Ghosteagle, neither of whom are within 5 points.

So the finals will consist of the following players:

freyme
Tripitaka
Nikita42
whakamole
jontheman
jug68

Congrats to our finalists!

[amazzony]

Indeed, congrats to finalist! Final battle is about to begin (last 12 games between 6 finalists). I will be sending out message with first 3 games shortly. Please remember that the point deduction system is still at works so don't make me send you invites and join your games from the private message.

May the best British Terminator win!

[amazzony]

First 3 games are active, next 3 will be sent out next Thursday (June 16).

Hi there,

Any news about the General Achievement Medal?

Cheers,

Hi there,

Any news about the General Achievement Medal?

Cheers,

Tom

Here:

It seems that [player]humrlmo[/player] from division 10 has earned himself a General Achievement Medal as the Best Terminated Terminator. I will contact Lindax and the medal should be given out in the next day or two.

A General Achievement Medal will be given out after round 1 of the tournament - Best Terminated Terminator. It is given out to the highest scoring loser of round 1 (i.e. person who ends up 4th in his/her division but has gathered more points than any other 4th place player of round 1).
