RoW II: The Boots & Tracks Brawl (Part V)


Recommended Posts

MrSpkr,

I've a feeling you and Jarmo are having some intermittent email troubles. I just heard from him today, and he is waiting on you. My guess is that cyber-space has a black hole in it somewhere between you two. smile.gif

It would probably be best not to cease fire unless you guys really want to; otherwise it would be an "artificial" result. It would be better for me to finish the game hotseat with the latest file. This would produce a final score more likely to reflect what would have actually happened IMO.

Due to my work schedule, and a few games still going, you still have a little time to get the game as far as possible. I would offer my services as a go-between for turns, but I can't send you anything. :(

The_Capt,

All five AARs have arrived safely at the RoW II Command Center.

To All,

The Final Set In Concrete Deadline for finished games AND AARs is Saturday, October 5th, 1800 hrs (GMT-5)!!

That evening I will request the latest game files for all unfinished games. I will then do a hotseat runout of the games to arrive at a likely and reasonable final score.

I will then post the Nabla program input file so players can take a look in case I made a mistake. I will also post the number of AARs I have from each player.

Sometime on Sunday I will post the results.

Starting Monday I will go to work on the finals scheduling, scenario securing, etc.. I'm limited on what I can do before the section leaders are known. Hopefully the Finals scenarios will all be delivered to the players by the weekend of October 12-13.

Check this thread often over the next two weeks, please!!

TB sorry to be a pain, but could you perhaps confirm who has (or has not, if it is easier) sent you AAR's.

As points ride on them, we nee to make sure you have them.

Thanks alot and I guess I shall be logging on, on Sunday to see who gets to play for the wine...

Maybe I will be second time lucky...

Either way I look forward to the next set of games..

Cheers

Holien,

It will take me awhile to process the latest AARs, and then count them up and post the info here. I will make that a high priority task for when I get that large of a chunk of time. At the very least, the info will be posted along with the scores for one final check by the players before I crunch the scores.

Treeburst, I am out of town through Thursday.

Can Jarmo and I finish this over the weekend?

Jarmo -- can you reply here? Perhaps we should try TCP/IP friday evening or early Saturday morning? I have to prep for a trial over the weekend, so getting these last few turns over tcp/ip is probably the most reliable way to finish this.

MrSpkr,

The deadline is firm. smile.gif You must make it by 1800 hrs on Saturday. If it doesn't work out, one of you should send me the latest file at that time.

All games are finished!!

Below is the Nabla program input file. Please check the scores I have entered for you. It's possible I made a mistake. I will crunch the scores after 1800 hrs (GMT-5) Saturday as planned. You have until then to turn in AARs.

Phew. Nowhere near the top, but at least I wasn't bottom either! I got 2 24ths, a 17th=, a 14th and a 19th.

Did anyone else have dire luck as Germans on Polish Push? My AT gun kept missing and then got clobbered withing a couple of seconds, leaving me dead as some doodoos.

Holien,

The scoring program splits the VL points down the middle.

You have until tomorrow evening to turn in AARs. If you think you have a shot at winning your section, you might want to make sure you've got some AARs turned in. It could very well make the difference. One AAR is worth 4% of the highest tourney score achieved (before AARs).

The time has come, gentlemen! The RoW II first round is over. Before I start posting the numbers, I want to thank the Boots & Tracks Scenario Design Team for their hard work. This includes the scenario testers and those who are working on the RoW II webpage at the Boots & Tracks site.

The scenario designers once again, and all in one place, are:

Jeff "Jwxspoon" Weatherspoon - Fire On The Mountain

David "Stix" James- Ste Mere Eglise

Kevin "Kinch" Kinscherf - Another Day

Wyatt "wwb" Barnett - Polish Push

Scott Boston - Head For The Hills

Thanks, Boots & Tracks!!

Thanks also to Jarmo Hurri (Nabla) for the excellent scoring system, and of course Charl Theron (WineCape), the provider of the nice prizes.

Also deserving of a "thank you" are those who filled in as replacements, especially later in the tourney. Cpl Carrot and Charles Keagle (Big X) come to mind here. There were others who took over in the middle of ongoing battles. A big THANKS to you all.

To kick off the numbers let's start with the scenario medians:

Fire On The Mountain - Allies 42.25, Axis 57.75

Ste Mere Eglise - Allies 51.75, Axis 48.25

Another Day - Allies 47.5, Axis 52.5

Polish Push - Allies 45.5, Axis 54.5

Head For The Hills - Allies 52.5, Axis 47.5

Each scenario was played 36 times by 36 different pairs of players. It appears the only one that was way out of balance was "Fire On The Mountain" with "Polish Push" apparently bent toward the Axis a bit. Keep in mind these are median scores (not the average), and that they reflect the splitting of contested/unclaimed VLs. We might get a different picture of scenario balance by calculating the AVERAGE score from the raw CM scores.

Here is how all 72 players stacked up, BEFORE AAR bonuses were added:

Do YOU wish you had written more AARs? smile.gif

Now I must take a break. Within the hour I will post final scores WITH the AAR bonuses. If you're at the top of your section in the next list, you are eligible for the South African wines (VCR war movies for Tourney III).

Below is a list of all the players who sent in at least one AAR, along with the number of AARs I have on record for them. The number in parentheses is the bonus that was added to players' Nabla score. Each AAR is worth .438 Nabla points. This figure represents 4% of Kanonier Reichman's high score. To all those who wrote AARs, a big "Thank You!" I know it takes time. Some of you went way beyond the call of duty, but the effort is sincerely appreciated.

Congratulations to the twelve section winners!! You are one step closer to the prize. As for the rest of you, there is always the next tourney.

Over the next three days I will be organizing the Finals. My job has cut me some unexpected slack. smile.gif If I keep at it, I can have the three Finals scenarios in players' hands by next weekend. Please check this thread often if you are playing in the Finals. I will be posting a list of players very soon. If you are not on the list and wish to play in the finals, post here ASAP. Everyone who played in this tourney may play the finals scenarios if they wish. You can look at it as a mini-tourney between four people. Thanks!!

Once again, a hearty congratulations to the section winners!

Kanonier Reichman is atop Olympus, and on a lesser peak rests Spanish Bombs. Congratulations to both of you and the other Section winners as well! Spanish Bombs, my subpar performance in SME no doubt enhanced the gap between us, but what did me was that combined with a mauling in Head for the Hills. Otherwise, I exceeded the median in every fight.

28th overall in 72 without AARs, 15th with; third in a Section of 6 without AARs and second with AARs. Much better than last RoW!

My thanks to all who made this possible. If you went blind or find you can't reproduce, please forgive my intemperate words and the resultant life blight while realizing that this happened only because you were so fiendishly good at your wicked plots and schemes.

Regards,

John Kettler
