GG 4.040 1-on-1 tournament

I'll be happy to play Rafael instead; doesn't matter to me if it counts as a 1st or 2nd round game.

I rather see this as Game 1 of Round 2, this allows you to take it slow. Round one seems to be in full swing with some games half-done after about one week [:)]

update after 6 weeks:

most games are finished, however the 3 last games to be finished all can impact who advances to round 2. All players waiting for round 2 to kick off will need some more patience...

Hi all:

I will be able to do daily turns until july 10th, then I'll be off for two weeks, and don't know how much time I'll have when I come back.
Arthur it would be great if we could do several turns per day this weekend in order to finish our game.

Hi guys been waiting since the 2nd of July for my turn to be sent back to me... and ive only received four turns in the last month...

I have sent several emails to BenT asking him when the next turn is going to be sent but so far i havent hear anything since the 2nd...

Is the stall period still four weeks??? That seems like an awfully long time and will definately hold up the tourny...

Round 1 final update:

Axis prevailed 6 out of 8 times, there seems to be a pattern.

Good, maybe we can try Lebatron's Deluxe AWD in the second round ?

Interesting observation, among the 7 finished games (excl the two MIAs), 5 of them are axis victory vs only 2 allied victory.
Is the GG v1.040 make life easier for the axis? Lets see how things are going in the second round.

make it 5-3 as the rjh1971-SGT Rice game went the Allied side, too. Generally speaking I agree the Axis seems slightly in favour but IMO that is in great parts due to better players' abilities as Axis. In Round 2 we may find a better Allied proficiency.

Hi again from the MIA's. Just thought that I would let every one know that we will be finished our game this week so we will have a result before the end of July dead line

Sounds great - remember you do not need to finish the whole game until then, if the Axis survives until Winter 1946 it is an Axis victory already. The degree of victory does not matter for scoring purposes. Please post a SC of the standings when the game is decided.

final result of round 1 see above...

Here are the round 2 pairings. Some mix & match to give everbody two new opponents.



Good luck to everyone!




Edited per xianing's request. No games started yet so it should not be a problem.

As Armorhero is my friend and we have already run many games between us, could I just propose to separate us in this round so we could meet some new opponents ?

I changed the roster. However, it is highly likely that the next round will see you play each other as you will have played most other opponents by then.

Apologies all ... I've been remiss in posting to the AAR thread. Hope I have time to update sometime this week.

My game with Armorhero ended with an Axis Auto Victory in early 1943.

Current status as of September 25 - I am back and hopefully we can get round 2 closed out soon.
