LoW vs ID 22-25 of 47 - Final 12/19

[Crazyirishman]

Hey folks, we going to have ourselves a interesting clan challenge here. We are simple people, so we thought to ourselves "why not just play straightforward maps that are sunny for a whole challenge to try and take us back to the days that we played classic risk?"

Here are the specs of the challenge
-Sept 17th start date
-47 games 7 dubs, 8 trips, 8 quads for each team. Tiebreaker is on First Nations Americas
-limit of 12 games per person
-Games will be distributed over 3 sets, with 14 days in between, if games with our premiums run longer, we can push back the dates by a day or two.
-Maps are the ones to be used on the list that were agree upon by both clans, with any changes all have to be agreed upon.
-The is a map limit as follows: a limit of 2 of the same map used for Home games (must be on different settings). Players may not join the same home map but no limit on map restrictions for Away games (e.g., they can join up to 3 games on the same map: 1 home and 2 away)
-All games will be played sunny, auto, sequential
- unlimited forts allowed on all settings except dubs
-trench allowed in first set with a 50 round cap
- all other spoils and forts options allowed.
- no intentionally timing out to avoid taking a card and gaining an advantage

The list of agreed upon maps for the challenge is here:

[IcePack]

Very cool

[Dibbler]

Great idea! GL to both clans. Not a great fan of sunny but the rest looks awesome.

[MudPuppy]

The Imperial Dragoons endorse these clan war settings. Here's to a great battle, LoW.

[Ishihara]

I'm looking forward to this one... best of luck, everyone in LoW...

[Master Chief]

FINALLY!! It's about time that there was a war with maps I actually like!!! Thanks to whoever came up with this brilliant idea!

[jigger1986]

Sounds like a great challenge, gl to both clans.

[WILLIAMS5232]

this would be my perfect challenge. i wish i was in it.

i love sunny charlseton quads

[maasman]

Time to take my battles to the trenches.

[Crazyirishman]

The games have been made and are ready to be sent out soon, also the map list has been updated.

[Crazyirishman]

All round 1 games are now underway, and LoW has also drawn first blood.

[bfunny27]

Great battle so far. Definitely an awesome challenge with worthy opponents!

[Crazyirishman]

Score Updated, and all round 2 games should be underway in the next day or so.

[-Maximus-]

Please send me another invite for Game 11745862

[reptile]

A little late, but GL Legends!!!!

looks like the current score is 8-8, looking like a fine battle so far.

[Crazyirishman]

The first post is update with all round 2 games included, we have a very close match going on.

[Crazyirishman]

So I've finally gotten my act together and all round 3 games have been added to to the original post. Of the 4 remaining games from the first two rounds, it looks like LoW will win 3 of them. So this is essentially a 17-17 match with the 12 round 3 games underway. This will come down to the wire and will be very interesting to see how this match wraps up. It been a great battle so far.

On a side note I think this match is going to win the award as one of the most laidback challenges ever.

lol... yes, it's been great!!!

[MudPuppy]

This last batch really hasn't helped clarify things here. Still neck & neck... and still some terrific battles!!!

[Crazyirishman]

Agreed, this I feel like this is going to come down to 1 game 25-22 at the most. I'll update this thread once I get my computer back, since the motherboard on my laptop died today

[Crazyirishman]

Updated now that I have a computer again. The Quads city quads was the final deciding game in this match. ID has 24 win and in victorious. There are two more active games in this with 1 being a LoW win and the other ID has the edge after 13 rounds of back and forth play. 25-22 will likely be the final score.

Congrats to ID for the win and the great challenge that was played trick free.

[MudPuppy]

Thanks for running this thing, Crazy... and thanks to the rest of LoW for a very enjoyable challenge: Quality games throughout!!!

[Ishihara]

congrats to everyone on a well fought, close war... well played, everyone...

[stringybeany]

Awesome quads games in this challenge.

[phantomzero]

Congrats guys. Well played everyone. A close battle!
