I suggest you Armchair Generals click the link below and take a look at the SCHQ. The Tournament site has been created.
Please update me with as much information as you can spare...IE:who won?
when was the surrender?
game comments?
what was the final score, if any?
-
Who's available right now? I may need a distraction from the SCHQ updates.
send me an email

From one Canuck to another: Buy the game dude; you will not regret it.

Yep, still being entertained! I like the /tower of Babel too. I can't wait for this $10 mini-tournament to get going. AKA: The $10 Pistol Shoot-out.

This weekend I'm goin to post some of the information on this "Christmas Tournament". So we can look forward to that, but I'f you guys are going to make AAR's for this $10 mini-tournament, I'm going to put this on my site too for all to see. You know, just to increase the stakes a *little* more.

Easily the MOST entertaining thread on the Forum right now. Thanks Guys!

Good to hear CvM. I'll put up something nice over at the HQ. If everyone in the toutney could keep their games saved, that would help with some stats later on.Originally posted by Carl Von Mannerheim:By the way, Brad, Otto is intersested in hosting the results of this tournament, including the hosting of a bracket.

I'd like to see it...maybe post a link instead of inserting the image.

While I don't have time to run the actual tourney, I think I can find a decent place to post the results.

Anyone who has played Axis & Allies or another similar game based on certain probabilities. (dice or otherwise), know how frustrating these "expected" probablilities can be.
Simply put, the odds of you getting exactly what the probability states is minimal. Even if you flipped a coin 1,000 times, the chances of you getting 500 heads and 500 tails are very low. What this 50/50 probability means is that the results from all the millions of coin flips in the world will average somewhere near half and half. It does not mean that every time I flip a coin twice, once will be heads and once will be tails.
A 25% chance at a tech advance does NOT mean one advance every 4 turns. It means that over the course of hundreds of turns the average of all the tech advance will hover somewhere around 1 in 4. Think about it: the fact that you get an advance one round does not in any way affect the chance of getting one next round, the chances are the same. Even if I flipped a coin 10 times and got 10 heads in a row, the odds of me getting heads on the next flip is again 50/50. There is no magic SC code that ensures each games' tech advances comply with the alloted percentage of that game.
I know I'm covering well trodden ground here, but I just wanted to perform an exercise in my own insanity.
While I'm not positive, with the 1.06 patch, I'm pretty sure tech advances do increase with each turn you fail to get an advance. I think we might need some clarification on this.
I also agree that there should be some increase in probablility each turn, but it really doesn't bother me too much. As long as the chances are equal for each side, I'm not too concerned with tech, and in my experience, I have found the tech to be balanced.

Nice to have another new and well known gamer here. I just added your site to my links page too.

I'm with you Norse, these threads are great!
a rough guess is something like 40 threads on the topic. -
I think there is probably some legal action you can take against Hubert.Originally posted by Flash Gordon:I can blame one of my illnesses on SC.

The next day, I felt like poop - I basically suffered a relapse of sorts and was sick AGAIN....(SNIP)....
Needless to say, I was not pleased.
I can suggest a good ambulance chaser if you want...

So let's see, 97% would be our new 100% then?
