Mattias Posted August 12, 2002 Author Share Posted August 12, 2002 I am exchanging turns with Ari but all is quiet on the other fronts. The game against Toumas was just a turn or two away from being finished and the one against Cogust was hovering at about 40% done. M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuomas Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 Hey No need to cry wolf just yet! Anyway I haven't got my act together yet but I haven't forgotten you guys. You'll hear from me soon. -TNT- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ari Maenpaa Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 FYI: I'll spend the next couple of weeks without computer, so don't wait for new turn files in 10+ days. Ari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaD JoKe Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 Howdy Ho to Ye All! As a little lazy forum-reader, I wasn't aware of Nordic Championships being played. Have any idea about the future games? I might be interested in taking some beating in not-so-distant-future from fellow scandinavians (or is this just a closed friends-kinda thing? :confused: ).

Have any idea about the future games? Well, I think we might have something similar after the arrival of CMBB. The Nordic Championships was the first tournament in which we tested a new concept of (possibly) unbalanced scenarios in CM tournaments. The idea has stood up quite well in this tournament and others as well. So I think that after you've played a while with CMBB we might have a European Championships tournament along similar lines.

Ari Maenpaa Posted September 15, 2002 Share Posted September 15, 2002 Summer holiday over! Well, have been for about a month. But still VERY little activity here. Only Mattias has sent some turns, but even he went AWOL over a week ago. Nothing from Tuomas or Cogust. C'mon! Are we going to finish this or not?

Treeburst155 Posted September 15, 2002 Share Posted September 15, 2002 Yep, Ari, I think it's just about time to declare you the winner of the Nordic Championships. I'm surprised we actually lost players in the finals. Let's give it a few more days and see who shows up. It might be that Mattias is still with us. If true, I don't know how we would score this thing. Maybe we should have a CMBB QB playoff (one game). Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ari Maenpaa Posted September 15, 2002 Share Posted September 15, 2002 Heh, I bet your post will wake up those sleepers I'm sure Mattias will be with us, but Tuomas and Cogust? Also I hope the players would be more eager to inform their opponents about forthcoming playing breaks. At the moment I have no idea how long the current breaks will continue.

Anyway that "c'mon" was mostly dedicated to Tuomas as I have lost my faith in Conny's return. Really though, we should get this one done. You'll get the next turn tomorrow.Great, but on the other hand what good that will do if the scoring can't be done anyway? Ari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted September 16, 2002 Share Posted September 16, 2002 I propose a one game CMBB QB match between Mattias and Ari for the Nordic Championship. Tuomas and Cogust have been AWOL far too long and we can't score the thing properly without them. What say you, gentlemen? Treeburst155 out.

Ari Maenpaa Posted September 16, 2002 Share Posted September 16, 2002 An e-mail contact made with Tuomas. Seems that he is still interested in the championship. Let's see if he has anything to add to this discussion Otherwise I'm ready to play against Mattias in CM:BB QB. Even though that would be quite an anti-climax considering how great the tourney has been so far. Ari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Even with Tuomas back in, we still have a problem because of Cogust. I'll have to think about how to deal with this when I get some spare time. Any suggestions? Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treeburst155 Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 Hmmm....we definitely have a problem here. We would have to start the finals over completely with just the three of you and NEW scenarios to do it right. This is a real shame because the two scenarios Nabla created are quite good, judging by feedback from the Wannabee Tournament. I can't think of any other way to have a fair playoff. These tourneys just can't stand up to dropouts near the end or in the finals. Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuomas Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 What aboput using those wannabee results as a yardstick for our results? It is clear that all of us will finish only two games because Cogust is missing. If I'm not making my self clear please ask, I'm afraid I had a bit of the drink today. -TNT- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each scenario was played only two times in total by the Wannabee Finalists. This would not give us an accurate median. Plus, the scenarios you guys are playing are not the same. You are each playing two of three, but not the same two. I just don't see how the Wannabee results can help here. Maybe I'm missing something? Treeburst155 out.

Treeburst155 Posted October 2, 2002 Share Posted October 2, 2002 The FIRST game of the Nordic Championship Finals has been completed!! Mattias and Tuomas are done. No scores because of FOW. Fight On! Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuomas Posted October 3, 2002 Share Posted October 3, 2002 Hey here is an idea! Everyone has an unfinished game with Cogust, right? And everyone will finish just two games and we can't compare these to anything. I think that if we would finish Cogusts games like this: #Fluid Tuomas vs. Mattias #Twin valleys Ari vs. Mattias #Kriegestadt Tuomas vs. Ari Then you could compare the results between me and Ari in Fluid betweeen Ari and Mattias in Kriegestadt and between Mattias and me in Twin valleys. What do you think? -TNT- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 Hmmmm...this plan would give us a schedule that looks like this (Allied Player on the left): "Fluid" Tuomas vs Mattias Ari vs Mattias "Twin Valleys" Ari vs Tuomas Ari vs Mattias "Kriegstadt" Tuomas vs Mattias Tuomas vs Ari The only thing is that every player will have to play one scenario twice from the same side, AND the second opponent will be at a disadvantage since his opponent will already know the scenario. BUT, if everyone finishes the games they are playing now, before they start their "Cogust" game, then all will have the advantage in one scenario. If they don't mind doing this then I'm all for it. Very good, Tuomas. It took me awhile to figure it out. Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Here's what I think we should do. First we find a fourth person, preferably from a Nordic country, who is NOT playing in the ROW II Finals. Then I will generate a schedule for you guys, and you will play the ROW Finals scenarios. I currently have eleven groups of four playing the ROW II scenarios. The Nordic Champs would just make up another group. You will be scored using the full Nabla system since we will have enough results to obtain good median scores. The high score among you four is declared the Nordic Champ and wins the South African wines generously provided by WineCape. IOW, we start the playoffs over with a replacement. Luckily we have scenarios, so we can do this. COGUST!!!! This is all your fault. Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted November 12, 2002 Share Posted November 12, 2002 Well, we can't implement the plan posted above due to one finalist playing in the ROW II tourney. Perhaps we can resolve this with CMBB? Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuomas Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 Resolving the winner with CMBB is fine with me. However does everyone have CMBB? Everyone atleast should, but if you think that you are not familliar with CMBB yet please say so. So what do we need? We need a replacement for Cogust and three scenarios. Right? Not necessarily we can do away the fourth player by using the schedule I posted above. And we could do away the scenarios by making few quickbattle maps and use the map import function to get those games going. Allthough I think it would be better to use scenarios. Please, Mattias and Ari, tell us what you think. -TNT- ps. Could the Fog of War be lifted from these finalist scenarios? I would like to know all the passwords and discuss about these scenarios!
