Treeburst155 Posted March 31, 2002 Share Posted March 31, 2002 Hi guys! I've been out of town for the last 30 hours or so. I'm catching up now. Sgt Gold, I show three games not yet completed by you. You mentioned one remaining above. Can you send me the scores for the other two? Lopaka, Your AARs are fine. That's what I'm looking for. Treeburst155 out.

White4 Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 Badda BUMP! Any word on the results, or am I pushing Treeburst to the brink? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted April 3, 2002 Share Posted April 3, 2002 White4, Still six games to go. If you email me I'll send you the latest results sheet if you don't already have it. Hopefully we'll be able to move on to the finals within a couple weeks. Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgars Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 Bump. and Treeburst, will you please warn us about the AAR deadline, after the last game is finished? The work and off-work activities are pressing too hard on me now, so i can't get my hands on remaining AARs... Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treeburst155 Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 ciks, Yes, I will give you a firm AAR deadline after the last game result comes in. It will be only 48 hours however. Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 OK, troops, what's the scoop?! Any MIAs? (fingers crossed) Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 The Nordic Championship Tourney is in the final turn of the final game. Let's get a move on, guys! Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hensworth Posted April 11, 2002 Share Posted April 11, 2002 Treeburst, do somefink ! We're being held up by three people and nobody knows whether they're even still playing. For all we know they might have thrown in the towel while we're all standing around on our heads waiting for our socks to fall off ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Trap Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 you've got socks?! When were we issued socks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Uber General Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Well im here and waiting for turn files to be sent back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Hmmmmm....Sgt. Gold and fytinghellfish. Uber General is not to be blamed as he was a late replacement who started with his games far behind. I will write Sgt. Gold and fytinghellfish to see what's up. Treeburst155 out.

Redwolf Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 What turns are these games in, BTW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricochet Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Maybe some TCP play to get a few quick turns in is in order. And where are my socks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 Treeburst, I think you badly need to set a deadline now, so that if needed games can be pulled from players - rest of turns finished in a "compatible" manner by someone else if everything else fails. But you can't pull the game without a fair timeframe of warning. [ April 12, 2002, 06:08 PM: Message edited by: redwolf ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lopaka Posted April 12, 2002 Share Posted April 12, 2002 I got my standard issue socks at the beginning of the tourney, but then I sent them out to the modders to add a few finishing touches, and I haven't seen them since. It's hard to find good service these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 Redwolf, The only big problem I see with your plan is getting the players to actually send us the game files we need to play out the games. We're already having trouble getting them to send files. Perhaps I can coax them into finishing. I managed to do that once before with the original WineCape tourney last year. Treeburst155 out.

Redwolf Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 Since you have the passwords, you only need one player of each pair, and Sir Ueber General seems to be available (as he always was when I played him). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 There are three unfinished games that do not involve Herr Uber General. Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treeburst155 Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 Yes, I think we may have a serious problem here. Without ALL players completing their games the scoring system just doesn't work. Maybe we should just call the thing off. At least you all got to play some new scenarios completely blind. Perhaps I can come up with some sort of half way fair way to score the games that have been played, but somebody is likely to get a raw deal. I'm discouraged at this point, and also far too busy to devote lots of time to this problem. Real Life should go back to its normal slow pace for me starting tomorrow. I'll give the scoring some serious thought then. It's clear we need to end this thing so the official deadline for AARs and game results is April 16, 2200 hrs (GMT -6) I can just about guarantee this problem of MIAs will not plague any future tourneys. I have a long list of reliables now. Those of you who finished your games are on that list, and Uber General too. Thanks, guys! Treeburst155 out.

Hensworth Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 Well, there go the socks. I propose a badge for those that made it into the Round That Never Was, to be included in sigs and to be revered by all persons as a token of tactical ability, tacit perseverance and patience bordering on the saintly. For Treeburst I propose three cheers, a lie-down and a wet towel. Section 4 - DIIIIIS- MISSED ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 OK, as things are accelerating downhill, some things: Treeburst, you are a hero. Don't let people discourage you. I think requiring a telephone number from people not already known to be good will avoid much of these mishap in compaigns or tournaments. Then, I'm a member of the group this stuck games are in. I firmly believe we can get a useful end of SGT gold, his answering was spotless when we played, and he posted here lately. I we get useful results[*] out of Sir Uber General's and SGT gold's games, then the only open slot is fytinghellfish vs Cooper. I think we scoring system may stand it when one game is set to the average of the other pairs, if you put real Nordics and Wannabees together. I wonder whether the Uber General vs SGT Gold game is still on. What's the current status of open games. [*] I can imagine several ways to get useful results out of a game which is 2/3 or more done and can be judged over by the comments on one opponent, the other players who played the scenarios, the AARs and finally the scenario designer or a neutral party setting one victory level. Should I propose a system with details? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeburst155 Posted April 14, 2002 Share Posted April 14, 2002 My apologies to Sgt. Gold. I got confused. It seems to be fytinghellfish and Cooper that are holding things up the most. I understand what you're saying Redwolf. Perhaps it is possible. The first problem is to get the game files from Uber General and Sgt. Gold. What we do with them after that is step two. We also need a status report on the Uber General/Sgt. Gold game. Uber General, Sgt. Gold, are you listening? Treeburst155 out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wreck Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 Treeburst: another thing we might do for these games is to convene a panel of judges, cease-fire the game then let the judges assign scores based on what the score is, where the forces are, how much time is left, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
