@manuc23 I hear yah, buddy. Most players here are active with live play in the lobby. Listen, you can opt for PBEM, too, btw! The community is really fun and you get to learn a lot. Almost all the players in the lobby will play anyone, really. You do you but would be great to see yah doing more live play! It's how I got better.

@eyeswideshut I had very good luck, I've only played one game of Revised and I had to play with another newbie, lol5cc125dd-d318-4395-a6f6-8e0d2fb9a625-image.png

@eyeswideshut-0
I would appreciate to participate in a tournament.

@epinikion Yes finalist gets a portion, I guess I had forgotten to specify how much, but it doesn’t matter since we are both contributing all. Thanks!

@nardwagg Thank you for donating your pledge!

Ok thx for organizing bayder! Please count me in

Congrats to @nardwagg and @hammond on their great finals game, and for donating their winnings to the triplea community! Also thank you to all of the players for making this the fastest ToC ever, only 3.5 weeks for the entire tourney!

If there’s enough interest we can do ToC19 very soon, and continue to do them more frequently to keep the fun and momentum going. Thanks again, everyone!

I'll give er a try if there's room. Thanks for hosting bayder.

bayder (Allies) beat nardawgg (Axis +9) in round 7 when Berlin fell to the Russian forces. The game was played about half pbem, half online. Allies went very aggressive in this game due to 2 factors: 1) Luftwaffe attacking the UK fleet in round 3, and 2) Japan taking 3 loaded trans out island-hopping in round 1. This combination gave Russia a lot of cushion to push west hard and fast. Combined with good Allies results in Egy and Africa, Germany was bottled up pretty quickly. The German Heer tried to counter with an aggressive move to Ukr, but Allies were able to stack EEur behind them, and then execute a daring triple-tap attack to capture Berlin. Thanks to nardawgg for a fun, fast, and friendly game...and congrats to him for making his first ToC Finals! Based on his track record, he'll surely be back again.

Also, thanks for everyone who played. We started at the beginning of Nov, and finished the entire tournament within 2 months. Definitely better than waiting around for months and months! I will plan to organize ToC18 when the dust settles after the New Year. Cheers! -bayder

We are currently at 26 players, looking to get to 32 for an even tournament, but we'll start with less if necessary. Still waiting on answers from a few "maybes" and hopefully get another few. I had originally set today (Nov 5) as the deadline for signing up, so if you're interested, please commit ASAP!

For those who have signed up (see list below), please email me at bayder.triplea@gmail.com to a) confirm you are in, and b) make sure I have a current email address. We will be starting in a matter of days. Cheers! -bayder
