JSnipers convivial, internecine, perspicacious [rescued]

Post by jsnyder748 »

[Edit -tokle] This tournament has been rescued by [player]Nebsmith[/player]. New thread: viewtopic.php?f=91&t=170003&start=0

hey all you people who were curious enough to look at my tournament. I thank you!

I am accepting people with a score of 1400 and higher!

I bet you were wondering what the heck those words in my title mean! If you already knew what the words meant you are a LIAR or you wasted your time in college majoring in English :D . The words were used to entice you to click the link but they also explain what my tournament is about.
Here are the words definitions.....

Definitions:
Convivial - festive, merry company
Internecine - destructive, slaughter, deadly, to kill out, exterminate
perspicacious - perceptive, understanding

How words apply to the tournament:
Convivial - We are all here to have fun and party. So it is a convivial environment. (until someone has bad dice :lol: :lol: )
internecine - In this tournament you will be all alone! you must kill all others to achieve victory!
perspicacious - You must have good strategy to win the games. (or just be lucky)

[spoiler=game type]Map - Classic
Game Type - standard
Play Order - Sequential
Troop Deployment - auto
Spoils - escalating
Reinforcements - chained
Fog of War - sunny[/spoiler]

The tournament will have 64 players and some reserves. There will be 3 elimination rounds and then 1 final round for a total of 4 rounds. You will play 8 games at a time and the top four players will advance to the next round. You will randomly be put into groups of 8 using random.org.

If there is a tie that affects the 4 people moving on you will play a 1 v 1 game on the random map with the same settings as the tournament. in the finals if there is a tie for 1st then we will do the same thing.

You will be given 48 hours to join games before you forfeit and I bring in a reserve. Unless you p.m. a reasonable explanation for not joining.

Sergent first class and above only. So you must have a higher score than 1400. Also premiums only since it is 8 games at a time.

The scoring system is as follows...

[spoiler=Positive Scoring]Win the game = 100 points
last one taken out = 50 points
second to last one taken out = 40 points
third to last one taken out = 30 points
fourth to last one taken out = 20 points
fifth to last taken out = 15 points
sixth to last one taken out = 10 points
first taken out = 1 points (haha loser)
Get any # of takeouts = 20 points
Get the most takeouts = 25 Points
Win on round 5 = 1000 points (unheard of!)
win on round 6 = 50 points
win on round 7 = 10 points
win on round 8 = 5 points
midcash = 10 points
3 sets turned in simultaneously = 50 points (take out someone with 5 cards while you have 4. Then you need 3, 3 sets)
hold 1 region in every continent before the winning player sweeps the board = 10 points (must post in chat when you complete this and take a snapshot) (if you dont have snapshot then let me know)
when you win you have every region including neutrals = 10 points (don't take unnecessarily longer than it would take you normally to win)[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Negative points]hold australia/South America for any # of rounds = negative 10 points
hold Europe/North America for any # of rounds = negative 15 points
Hold Asia for any # of rounds = negative 20 points
cashing before round 5 = negative 10 points
suiciding in the opening few rounds = negative 100 points (DO NOT DO!)

these do not apply to the winner. Also these only apply before round 6.

you can technically have a negative score in the end. If you do I will be very upset with you but i can't actually do anything to you![/spoiler]

[spoiler=medals]First of all you get one for winning! Then we have a general achievement medal....

Lindax has agreed to give out a general achievement medal for the person with the most points gained before the finals

everybody clap for Lx =D> =D> =D>[/spoiler]

Hooray! :lol:

I applaud you wholeheartedly =D> for making such a tournament. Im sure we all know a few players who would get a negative score ;) .

The PoD is IN.

p.s. not sure about the bit about cleaning up the neutrals. I prefer to just kill all the people.

p.p.s. After what round number am I allowed to suicide? :)


i will fix the neutral thing. If you take the whole map including neutrals to win without taking any extra time to kill all other opponents you will get those points. Ex. you take out everybody but fail to win promptly because you purposefully took the last neutral and it takes the other person one unneeded round to play. This means you don't get the points.

p.p.p.s. answer - if you can prove they did by taking a snapshot of said action then yes i will send them to play 4 player flat rate games forever (i am not trying to play god but i must take action here)

i will answer any more questions you have or any other problems you see :D

The rule about holding 1 country in each continent has been changed to "before winning". But surely the winner will always satisfy this condition a brief moment before winning (unless neutrals control a continent- yet another reason to kill them off :D ).

The condition is only nontrivial if it is applied to loosing players. But it seems that it no longer applies to them.
Or maybe i missed the point. :?


on the turn that a person wins the game the points for holding one region in each continent does not apply. it is only before the game is won.

when you complete this objective either take a snapshot and explain what the snapshot is about or tell me in a p.m. that you have completed that objective. Ex. you complete this requirement but you are at risk of losing it before i can look.

another option is to have someone else in your game take a snapshot or say in the chat that they saw you complete 1 region in each continent.

rmjw10 wrote:in please

one question. I don't understand the negative points for holding a continent. Are you not going to hold it to win it?

Sorry to be so dense.

tks


fist off i am only accepting people with 1600 points and above but i will put you in reserves for showing interest.

secondly the only way I will give negative points for holding a continent is if you attack others to take a continent because in these games it is considered poor strategy when escalating cards are all that matter.

as said underneath the negative scoring section i wrote "these do not apply to the winner. Also if these only apply before round 6."

hold 1 region in every continent = 10 points
when you win you have every region including neutrals = 10 points

Negative points:
hold australia/South America for any # of rounds = negative 10 points
hold Europe/North America for any # of rounds = negative 15 points
Hold Asia for any # of rounds = negative 20 points
cashing before round 5 = negative 10 points
suiciding in the opening few rounds = negative 100 points (DO NOT DO!)

you can technically have a negative score in the end. If you do I will be very upset with you but i can't actually do anything to you!


Hooray! :lol:

p.s. not sure about the bit about cleaning up the neutrals. I prefer to just kill all the people.

p.p.s. After what round number am I allowed to suicide? :)

p.p.p..s. Can I suggest one more rule? Anyone hitting a stack of more than 2 in the first 4 rounds will be punished by being forced to play 4-player flat rate games for the rest of eternity.

:-s
I guess in that situation, neutrals would be declared the winner. Hence the need to kill off those pesky neutrals first.

p.s. Thanks for your tough stance against stack-smashing.

p.p.s. The PoD duly notes that the word promptly has appeared in the above post.

If I might make one more pickly interjection..

The rule about holding 1 country in each continent has been changed to "before winning". But surely the winner will always satisfy this condition a brief moment before winning (unless neutrals control a continent- yet another reason to kill them off :D ).

The condition is only nontrivial if it is applied to loosing players. But it seems that it no longer applies to them.
Or maybe i missed the point. :?
