        3 games if needed bid off on third

        we have 3 gents we need 5 or 13 more

        slap away

          I would be keen to play if we can default to PBEM. I just don't have the time anymore these days (with kids) to play 5 hours straight. To keep the games moving at a fast pace, we could set a rule to make one turn per day. Most games in the ToC series have finished well within 30 days, typically 3-4 weeks max. We could set a hard deadline for arbitration to determine the winner, after say 4 weeks. Just my 2 cents. Cheers, Deltium

            We can put to vote when we have 8. Np Deltium. Not a fan of pbem myself but if I have to I will np. I don't think its fair that some interested peeps should be excluded if they are short on time. Maybe 1 hr matches could be arranged in lobby at times? Just a thought. There is not a strict time frame on this one that has been discussed yet. Im sure they will all be obliging.

                    The bracket has been created here. We need 1 or 2 more to start. Or should we wait for 16 players?

                    http://challonge.com/v341ToC3

                    I will use the random seed once we have 8 or 16 players

                    Rules Are as follows (still open for discussion)

                    • V3 41 Low Luck, No Tech, Allies get a 13 bid, No Kamikaze, Total Victory

                    • Each match up requires 2 games minimum with each player playing the axis and the allies.

                    • Should a tie breaker be required then they shall bid for the allies for the third match

                    • Standard ladder rules apply

                    If we open a quarrel between past and present, we shall find that we have lost the future! Sir Winston Churchill

                      @prastle I think tournament need to be gaming both sides: Axis and Allies, so it can be balanced for gamers; also we need to be at least 8 gamers for that, thanks and Greetings.

                        @Raville it is

                        the bid is for third game if a tie after each play allies and axis

                          is bombing germany with 6 bombers really legal? 18 average damage to Germany per round and German average product power would be under 30. It is devastating. Am I right?

                            Hi All - just curious if we can use the usual bidding system to assess whether to play the Axis or Allies? Playing 2, or potentially 3 games with a given opponent may take a long time. All other AA 50 tournaments are single-elimination, and the bidding system ensures that the bid is fair between both players. Just a suggestion, but happy to follow consensus if there is a view otherwise. Cheers, Delitum

                              @Deltium I am fine with that as well but I am expecting this tourney to take awhile, no rush. Thus it would be nice to make all players play both sides. I am OK with the consensus either way.

                                  @Blasherke I have spoken with many of the players and many of them feel that they dislike pbem. My suggestion is pbem is allowed if both players agree but live play in lobby is default. Also I am certain they would be willing to schedule by chat here ( old private messaging ) or email an hr here or an hr there of live play. There is no strict time frame on this tourney. Not a lot of us left that play AA 50. 🙂

                                      Let's take a vote on PBEM vs. live. The problem with live play for many people, is that I just can't commit to playing for 3+ hours at a time. I am fine with making a move at least 1x or 2x a day (e.g. morning and night), and it would be a good idea to get everybody up to speed on how to play PBEM, since all tournaments are held this way, both historically at TripleA and at other websites like AAMC and DAAK. The reason for this is because it is hard enough to get even 8 or ideally 16 people into a tournament these days, and you usually have the best shot if you structure it as PBEM.

                                      I'd like to make a plug for PBEM anyway. It's quite easy, and all you have to do is register on the Marti dice server and get all of the dice rolls to you each and every turn. The software is very well integrated to be able to automatically send files back and forth.

                                      Well, that's my 2 cents! 😀

                                          @prastle Ok I understand, no problem. Regarding your statement about less interest in AA50, may I ask what game version is hot nowadays in the lobby?

                                            @prastle Never tried it, but maybe "play-by-forum" is a go-between option?
