Was a great match...got it recorded for you! Congrats!

Ya know...I'm gonna go after my good buddy MGSteve next. He's been teaching me more team games, so let's see if I can pull one off in 1v1...

My Home Game: Game 13578103 Labyrinth
Random Game: Game 13578108

I'm assuming he's gonna use Jamaica...

PM sent and Ladder updated...

Yep and Duk is in the process of doing the same thing ... well done guys

Yup, I won my challenge against Roy 2-1, and am in the process of draining Elric's sword of its powers in the third of our three games, which will make that series 3-0 as he predicted.

I need to be fair here and specify that I had an amazing run of luck and went first in all six of the above games.

Hey Chuck, [player]macbone[/player] won my challenge some time ago. Could you update that for me? And since I beat [player]Tamaynet[/player] I'm assuming that some players above me have been losing to get me knocked all the way down to 11. Geez, wasn't I at about 3? :roll:

And speaking of making an ass of u and me, :o my game in your challenge is way different than Jamaica. Here's Game 13579307. No pm or wall since you're the man here and received the invite.

And since you're recording my loss to mac, now I'll challenge [player]t4mcr53s2[/player] with Game 13579313 and Game 13579319 and will wall.

Got the match result with Mac recorded and the challenge to T4...I saw that you've been falling down a bit. Did you take a page from Krag's playbook with that game of yours? Big sigh of relief because I truly suck woodcock heads when it comes to Jamaica! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm in a bit of a quandary.

I have beaten both 9trumpet9 and Kragomac although both of the final games are still being played and I will most likely lose both but overall will win by 2-1 in both cases.

I think if I announce my win over 9trumpet first and then my win over Krag I move an extra rung on the ladder, which is currently what happened, but if I wait until the final matches are played then maybe Krag's game will over first and I think I would not advance as far.

Chuck, am I understanding how this works correctly?

Do we just work sequentially through the posts?

Ok...here is what I posted back on Sept. 30th:

celliottii wrote:Just so everyone knows...I post all challenges and results in the chronological order they are posted. That way, no one can take advantage of "delaying a post" to keep from having to play someone. If the Ladder shows you can challenge someone, then challenge them.


With that being said, when I know there are two matches that could affect the Ladder positions, I'll go to the actual games and see exactly when the games finished.

In this case, I'll have to look and see which match finished first and record the result from that information.

Would like to challenge [player]dhallmeyer[/player].
Random game: Game 13590458
Home game: Game 13590463
I was considering a Classic game, but it has too big an advantage for whoever goes first, so I decided against it.

Got it for you, General...If the Classic game was fogged & trench, would there still be an advantage to the first player?

Chris, I had a chance to go review the matches to determine the chronological order they were finished. In both matches, you won the first two games.

vs. 9trumpet9:
Game 13563342 ended at 0019 on Nov. 11
Game 13562174 ended at 0858 on Nov. 12

vs. Kragomac
Game 13556760 ended at 0033 on Nov. 12
Game 13556753 ended at 0824 on Nov. 13

With that being said, the Ladder will reflect the win over 9trumpet9 first...and then the win over Kragomac.

Ladder is updated...
