Re: Jules Verne Contest [ACT I - 1st Round]
They should be foggy. That's how the tournament was set up anyway. If people don't like it, they shouldn't have signed up.

Re: Jules Verne Contest [ACT I - 1st Round]
sunny. the whole objective thing is not fun with fog if it leads to arguments at the end of the game.

There is no fog rule and I am no gentleman.

Re: Jules Verne Contest [ACT I - 1st Round]
Here's some responses I've gotten by PM.
I won't do a formal count until tomorrow, but so far it looks as if FOG is leading the pack by a pretty wide margin.

Re: Jules Verne Contest [ACT I - 1st Round]
Let's stick with the fog - it's been that way for the duration of the tournament ...
Re: Jules Verne Contest [ACT I - 1st Round]
Foggy vs. Sunny vote result:
Adding it all up I get 10 for Sunny and 19 for Foggy. Almost 2-1 is a pretty convincing display of preference. Foggy it is.
Iceland
I'm starting the games for Act II Round 1 Map 2 (Iceland). I realize a few of the freemiums may have problems with not having an empty slot, but other freemiums have reserved a slot for this purpose, and I worry that if I don't start these games now the problem will actually get worse, not better. So, if you have an empty slot please join quickly, and then we'll work with the ones that don't and see if we can get them in within a realistic time.
This is the second part of the Journey to the Centre of the Earth group. Once Professor Lidenbrock/Hardwigg gets to Iceland, he gets to the centre of the earth through the Snæfellsjökull volcano.
The bonus on the Iceland map is Snaefell. Capture it and hold it for three rounds.

Re: Jules Verne Contest [ACT I - 1st Round]
Well, so far so good. All but one of the Iceland games started with no drama. [player]opposites.[/player] was the only player that couldn't accept his invite, but this is not his fault, it's because of the Nordic Nations game that was restarted.

Re: Jules Verne Contest [ACT I - 1st Round]
Below you will find the game log of Game 9145019
I, Kennys777, have held Iceland and received the bonus for rounds 12 and 13. I was the first player to do it, therefore I am claiming my bonus points for this game. I have highlighted the round numbers and the actual bonuses received by me...

Good job, kennys!
BTW, you could always put the log extracts in spoiler tags, as below. Not a big deal, but it keeps things a tiny bit tidier.
