Conquer Club

All 3rd set games have been created! We seem to be going to a very tight finish! Very good war so far!

What's the projected games at now?

I am at 8-7 in decided games for TOFU and 12-12 if I count games leaning one way or the other (as of yesterday)

12-12 doesn't sound unreasonable, but I have us ahead slightly at 13-11. I'm optimistic we are actually a bit better than that, but that is based on trends in games that are very early on or have shown recent movement in our direction.

I have it 17-13 tofu

I looked at the games in general and I think I can see which games you are using that would make it 17-13. Some of those games are just not enough of a lead for either of us that I would call them one way or the other. I see them as 55-45% games right now and I like games to be above 60-40% before I call them leans, but one could easily disagree about that.

One thing I can say for sure, is that I prefer to head into the last exchange like we did in our last round of CC - I don't like it to be in doubt and whether it is a two game lead, or four game lead or behind by 2 or whatever it works out to be - its too close and that means I will be playing too damn many games

Yeah, I have TOFU up by 2-3

LHDD has been behind in all wars of the CC6 so far, we don't mind giving you a head start, we're ready to catch up in the last few days of the war

You guys have thrown a few impressive rolls in some of my games lately. However, it does appear as if [player]djelebert[/player] had an impressively bad roll for you guys in our Galip Quads game. It evened out or made up for the impressive fail I made earlier when I went 19 v 17 and ended up 2 v 12 .

i think we should forbid djé to throw dice in this game...it took him 6 rounds to take KK beach. actually me and momo too have bs dice.
seriously we've been dropping slightly simililar troops but it looks like we're quite behind in troops.

Meh...
We have chosen to play RISK not Chess. Dice are a part of the game we can't control, and thus the part least worth talking about.
At least, that is how I have always felt.
There are of course constructive discussions to be held regarding our dear old intensity cubes. But I find most discourse on the subject around this forum anything but.

You do have a better tactical position so I rate the game even/ slight lean to you.

You can complain about that all you want, but you better not complain about your rolls in Hive Doubs...

I think our attack dice are normal but you guys are having a hard time attacking

fairman seemingly intentionally missed a turn in game 16864596, apparently without malicious intent.

My ruling: The game is a forfeit by LHDD and counts as a win for TOFU. No further action will be taken against fairman or LHDD.

Bs! So now for missing 1 turn it s game for the opponent? If this decides the war, prepare for a lot of typing.
I don t even know what happens in a team game if you are killed by neutral player if the spoils vanish or if they go to your teammate?

LOL...it was not just a missed turn. He missed it on purpose. Which then set up an opportunity for his teammate to take him out and get his cards. This was clearly an advantage for making the intentional miss. While his intentions may not have been sinister it is clearly a game abuse and not in the spirit of our competition. Nobody has any ill feelings towards Fairman but the ruling seems appropriate.

Yeah, like anyone here would ve taken the turn! The game was ours, sempai aparently has problem reading the instructions fairman leaves him mentioning "very important" and he gave away the game. Anyone telling me that in fairman's shoes he would ve taken the turn is a liar.
That doesn t answer my personal doubt: when neutral player kills you in team game where do your spoils go? Vanish or teammate?
When a player deadbeats his spoils and troops go to his teammate, and i ve never witnessed a kill by neutral in team game before

Is it the last few days already ?! Damn, didn't notice. Hope it's not too late, starting the catch up phase now then..

Quiet in here.

To much focusing and staring at screens and numbers, we become zombies...

You have to be quiet or you will get your war thread locked if you don't.
