Sept. MC Blind Companion Tournament - WINNER dowian2

September Monthly Challenge Blind Companion Tournament: Bronze

Mods can join! (except Caymanmew and groovysmurf)

Hello people,

This is a blind companion tournament for the September Monthly Challenge. That means you will be signing up without knowledge of the map. This tournament will be played on the map and settings needed to receive the bronze token.

We are looking for 16 players to play 15 games over the month of September. Three games will be sent once per week.

Challonge.com Standings

Schedule
September 1st - 3 games
September 8th - 3 games
September 15th - 3 games
September 22nd - 3 games
September 29th - 3 games

Settings
Map: Complex (kinda), Large
Players Per Game: 2
Game Type: 1v1
Initial Troops: Automatic
Play Order: Sequential
Spoils: No Spoils
Reinforcements: Unlimited
FOG: Yes
TRENCH: No
Round Limit: 20
Round Length: 24 Hours

Rules
Each player will play each other player once. Whomever has the best record over 15 games, wins. In the event of a tie, tiebreaker game(s) on the same map and settings will be sent until players are no longer tied. For example, if two people tie, one game will be made and the winner will also win the tournament. If three people tie, three games will be made (A vs B; B vs C; A vs C) and the winner of two games will win the tournament. If four people tie, six games will be made (A vs B; A vs C; A vs D; B vs C; B vs D; C vs D) and hopefully just one person wins all three of their games and we can end this craziness! :)
If five or more people tie, I'll just quit the site and let someone else deal.
Tiebreaker games will not be played in September and therefore will not count towards the September Challenge scoreboard.

If you quit the tournament you are not eligible to get a medal for the September Monthly Challenge!

Signups end August 30th

Multiple iterations of the tournament will be run if filled. Keep signing up until the deadline!

I'd like to play, but some questions first:

i) Is it the same map all tournament; or new map in every round; or new map in every game?

ii) Would you reconsider unlimited reinforcement? It's pretty explosive combination with fog. What's wrong with chained reinforcement?

It is the same map for the whole tournament.
While some maps play much differently with an unlimited setting, this particular map does not.

Sure, I'll play.
If you want to play a game where luck isn't a factor, go play chess.

Something happened...

I accepted new set of invitations; not all at once, but one by one.
- The game with dowian2 showed up
- The game with Unai showed up
- There is no game with Scarlet Lady. Whether I clicked something wrong, whether I'm on the Scarlet's foe list, whether gremlins did something...

Not in a hurry, but I hope I'll get a new invitation.

The game versus Scarlet Lady should be under your "Waiting" games because she has yet to accept her invite.

How embarrassing... Yes, it is under waiting games.
