Kingfish Posted September 8, 2005 Author Share Posted September 8, 2005 Uh...well...there are no replacements. We burned through our list just to get a player for the GAJ / Ankulin game. So, basically its step the **** up and start sending the turns. C'mon, really. 120 days for 3 scenarios is plenty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Hornet Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 Section 1 update- Londoner and I are finished with St. Nazaire. I'm not even half way through my other two games. I send turns out daily. I haven't heard from either of my other two opponents in almost two weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Bijlsma Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 Loaded for Bear and Tiger Valley are not even half way yet, the game is going at snails pace. One month to finish them? I don`t see me managing that. I suspect many people can fire St.Nazaire back and forth rapidly but feel they really need to sit down for the other two. I know when I check my mail late at night or shortly before leaving for work St.Nazaire tended to be played straight away but I always left the others for later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Other Means Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 We've finished TV and we're proceeding well with StNaz. LfB OTOH was started very late and isn't really ameanable to playing TCP/IP so we'll have to step it up on that one. I was British in TV and I can't remember having a better time with CM. More like that please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigduke6 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Well I've done them all. My last, Loaded for Bear, was completed against Dangerous Dave about a week ago. A great deal of explosive was expended by all parties, and every one had a wonderful time and was quite dirty when it was over. My thanks to the designers for three blue-ribbon big scenarios. St. Nazaire and Tiger Valley are pretty much the best CMAK games I've every played against a live opponent. St. Nazaire was the most original CM scenario I've ever played, period. The designer deserves a big "Genius" medal, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerousdave Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 I guess we'd better report some games. I'm done with Bear, as BigDuke pointed out, and St. Naz. with Ankulin. Tiger is going rather slowly though. At this rate we won't make it on time. I have to say, it is my favorite of the three, and I don't even have the Tigers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KF if you need a backup player I now have the time to play and will gladly take any no hope situation so you can get the scores. You know where I am.

Melnibone Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 My CMBB game with John O will not be finished - only ever had sporadic (1 per week) at best returns from John and nothing for over a month. I really can't be bothered playing at such a slow speed - especially with my memory problems! Good news is the Tiger scenario is nearly finished. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveS Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I sincerely hope this tournament does not fizzle out to an unsatisfactory conclusion after the huge amount effort put into it by both the organisers and the players. Thanks to Holien for stepping into the breach and offering his services. I'd suggest advertising for other possible replacements in the PBEM forum if necessary. In group 3 I think my matches in Bear and Tiger Valley will finish in time, although the pace has been a bit patchy lately for legitimate reasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simovitch Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 As a 2nd place round One player I will be glad to step in for some of those who are having trouble completing some games on time. If the administrators make it official, I'm ready to play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Enigma Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 just to correct myself, i was at work and going from memory. Tigger valley has 13 turns left to be played and bear 16 ... so i/we should be finished up for when ever the end date is 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Londoner Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Yup it's not really fair on the organisers. It's not like it's a massive commitment after all. Like Hornet said, we've finished our game but the other two are dragging. Interesting battles, good bunch of lads, just to bloody slow!! Poor old Panzertwat has an understandable excuse though, with that horrendous accident.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
