Just a minor inconsistency.

Reserves:

1.- Dukasaur (Major) (Replaced pzaviski2003 in Round 4)
2.- alaskanassassin (Major) (Replaced HighlanderAttack in Round 2)
3.- swimmerdude99 (Captain) (Replaced Dibbun in Round 5]
4.- ckyrias (Major) (Replaced LFAW in Round 5)[/color][/spoiler]

I notice that 2 of the replacements (alaskanassassin and swimmerdude) have been added to the scoreboard under their own name, whereas the other 2 (myself and ckyrias) have not. It's not a big deal, but I just thought I should point it out in case it leads to errors later.

Very well spotted. I thought I had updated all names. I'll correct it rightaway.

Thanks,

EDIT: I had updated all names, but not uploaded the image. Done so now.

Lindy,
what determines who wins once we have reached the round limit for a game?......total men or total regions?

Good question ubc.

According to the CC rules the player with the most troops wins the game. However, for this tournament that doesn't matter, because after 30 rounds I will not reward points for the winner anymore.

That was the rule before CC introduced the round limits and I intend to stick to that rule.

if cc gives a winner in round 30 and ends the game. then i win in round 30 that is still in your tournament rules. we should still get points.

That is correct Sir. I'm not sure if you technically win in Round 30, but there won't be a round 31 (if I use the round limit feature).

EDIT: Just checked, now I understand your concern. No worries, you got your points!

There is a 30 round cap on every game (*see note), no points will be awarded after round 30, except for the points you already earned in terminator games.

WTF you have been giving players points for games that ended with the 30 round limit????

Oh boy, Houston we have a problem. Since the Round Limit Feature got introduced during this tournament I started using it. Now we have a situation where people go for 'the most troops" in round 30 in the games the round limit feature is used and win the game "in round 30".

After going back and forth with a few players about this, and taking everything into consideration, I have decided to use the Round limit Feature for every round from now on and award point to the players who win because of it.

I realize this causes some inconsistency (although no games that did not have the round limit feature applied went over 30 rounds), however, I honestly think it's the best solution to keep this tournament going.

Hoping for your understanding,

Additional rule: If you win a Terminator game because of the Round Limit Feature, you get the 5 points for the win, but not the points for the kills, unless you killed somebody before the round limit.
