Well I grabbed 1st place in this one and just wanted to say thanks for the fun battles to all my opponents. Well fought to the bitter end, good times!
That last battle was excellent! I took the field with the Soviets but took heavy losses. I did manage to hold the line as the Axis but still took heavy losses. Fun stuff, love it! 👍

All depends on what your opponent does, so there will always be outliers in the results.

There was a 10 day extension. I got 3 battles that should be able to finish because of this. I see others still plugging away trying to finish as well. 30 days for 30 turns is pretty tight time-wise. Point being, it shouldnt have been that to begin with. If you finish early consider yourself lucky. I'd rather finish early and wait then not having finished at all. 👍

Yep like 90% of PUPs are fine. Mostly means the AV software never heard of the .exe and wanted to flag it for users just in case you dont recognize it and its harmful.

Man this battle is very bloody and brutal. Right from turn one with both sides turning the church into lead city! Appears I’ll be winning both battles. Pretty tough for the Germans in this one.
+1 to some sort of a reputation system for invitational tourneys! 👍

It happens, just the nature of the beast. Both of my opponents only played one battle and just quit mid game in the other battle. I was winning too, so could have alot more pts but thats just the way it goes sometimes. Dont give up on MP, its by far the best way to play CM. 👍

Yeah that hurts! Have some comfort in knowing its happened to all of us once in awhile.

Took me awhile to find the FO too. I thought, I could be a nice guy and point this out in the forums. Or be a overly competitive snarky bastard and not say anything. I made my choice! 😂 Hey Im in the lead after all, what do you expect, the gloves are off! 🍺

I think we just about made it. Did not know there were overtime in the scenario. Oh and the reason I only send the single file that times was because I lost connection to the server after doing one side and had to go to bed. 
GG. Was a bit of a roller-coaster for me. When I lost 5 t-34s early, it was looking pretty bad. I think I got a bit lucky to pull it back. 
Also I think there is something wrong with the scoring since the German side seems to get all the points from exiting tanks, even if they where not.

Turn extension was a big plus for me this round, i'm not sure if im in the same time zone for any of my opponents maybe bar one and you will always have days you can't get a turn played for each player so a few extra days to get to the end of the battle was much appreciated.

Yeah, really sorry for the late start. Unlucky that our times zones ended up so different, normally I would have no problem banging out a few turns a day. I was planning to contact you about finding a time I could stay up late and get some turn done. But now that some more days have been added that seems to solve it.
I agree some more days would be nice. Since sometimes you realistically can only do one turn a day due to time zones, and it is probable that you are going to miss a few days.
ps. Give that SMG gunner a medal. An entire mag of MG fire, my god what is that guy made of.

@BFCElvis any chance we can get extensions to these rounds of only 30 days? If not this rd then maybe next one? Its just not enough time. I see we're down to 10 days left now and may not finish my battles. Despite decent turn rates from my opponent. Fingers crossed he knows how to cease fire and the deadline to do so.
Slitherine is hurting their own tournaments with these short rds. I'm thinking the limit should be +10 to the battle time. So a 20 min battle gets 30 days or a 30 min battle gets 40 days.

Yeah guys theres scoring bugs in the surrender games. Its getting looked into. Not sure if it can be manually corrected or not. I lost a bunch of pts too. Bear in mind the CM tourney system is still a work in progress. Elvis will be around with details soon.

Im not sure how the timed out feature works. But there have been some scoring issues, I think some players lost pts. I know I lost alot.
Also keep in mind guys, these tourneys are still a work in progress. Its not perfect and will never be, but they are trying to make the best of it.

As long as he buys enough green veggies, that's allowed! 😉 

Yeah this sort of “omg they’re not doing anything and they don’t care” nonsense always gets kicked around when there’s been few releases. Nothing new. Just because Steve talks about the Ukraine war doesn’t mean jack squat. You’re equating two things that are completely unrelated. It’s not logical. Does he need your permission to talk to his relatives on the phone too? How about running to the grocery store for food? 😗

People on the internet telling someone that he should tweak his priorities. It would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.

So if Steve spends a two or three hours each day looking at what's happening in UKR war and writing a few posts of a few paragraphs each, then he is doing nothing else the rest of the day?  And also this war informs any CMBS games going forward, so it's not like it's off subject.  This is fascinating.  I watch ~10 hours of football each week, plus play some CM, plus play some guitar, cook, clean, do laundry, etc.  Therefore I can't possibly be doing my 40+ hour per week job.

Everybody gets one starting file. Whoever plays their file first now has the other player with both files.
Also never play any files in other save game areas, only the In-Progress section. The tourney system does not support save and finish later.
