We are way behind schedule on the Ladder Reset. Originally, we were hoping to be winding this up in January/February 2018, but at the current rate, we won't be finished until May/June 2018.

Several issues led up to this delay:

    1. The hurricanes (specifically Andrew) caused us to lose almost four weeks while our players within the disaster area took care of their families. Family always comes first in my book.
    2. Players not accepting invites. Moving forward, if you do not accept your first invite, ETG will send another. If you do not accept that second invite, you will forfeit that game.
    3. Players missing turns. Nothing can be done about this. If you are kicked from a game for missing turns, that game will not be recreated.

We have ten rounds left to play.

ETG will send out the next set of invites around January 15, 2018. You will be playing two rounds every week. Everyone in the Ladder Reset is a Premium member, so there is no concern of a Freemium.

This should us on track to finish by the end of February and restart the new Ladder.

A PM will be sent to every member in the SoC Ladder Reset shortly.

Chuck


Adding 6 games per week will double the expected game load from when we signed up for this - adding 30 games over the course of a month. Not all of the games are quick - some of them will drag on for a while. And while I understand that's part of the reason for wanting to get them all started sooner rather than later, I know that for me, that will more than likely put me at a game count that is way too high, very quickly.

Three extra games each week adds up really quickly, esp when adding that with the other games/events that we're already playing or participating in for anything else - fun, clan, tournaments, etc.

i agree will LLT the 1 vs 1 games are as much fun as the games we play after ladder resets and so why have the games to reset the ladder add up much faster than ones people choose to start once ladder is reset ?
I wish either my father or my mother, or indeed both of them as they were in duty both equally bound to it, had minded what they were about when....

If 2 player fog game,please allow 12 hour snap courtesy, or post what I could have seen.... Thank you

A player can win a medal based on the following Ladder Streak of games won 3 - 0:

7 matches - Bronze
10 matches - Silver
13 matches - Gold
17 matches - Platinum


I think nobody came even close to win even Bronze medal.

I think there was a mistake in setting up my matches this round. I have already played Ganguscalm - and this round, I have two games against General Bax and one against Ganguscalm

I agree Chuck and not just because I have done better on it. I like the round robin format very much. Oh wait, I haven't had to play Elric the Great or Josko yet!! I really don't like the round robin format Chuck!! LOL =D> =D> =D>

I have to report an error in scoring - in the last round I played 4 games because one had been erroneously set up with ganguscalm who I had already met in an earlier round. I did manage to beat him but should not get any points for that. I was awarded 4 points for round 16 and it should be 3.

Geez, I also haven't met up with Charle yet - 3 tough rounds ahead for me.

You must be an active player for your points to count in the SoC Ladder Reset...Since Josko is no longer active, he will be removed from the Ladder.
