PBEM World Cup

[Oxtane]

I thought I had posted the results from BJZuels and my game, but it looks like I didn't. Anyhow, I was able to pull out a victory on a draw -

Oxtane 6250
BJZuels 3100

Good luck to Bill in the second round.

Were you planning any kind of 'Back Ladder' for those of us who failed to win their first match?

What kind of setup for 'black ladder' did you consider?

[Spenser]

Hi !
The "Balkan borderclash" between Yugoslavia (me) and Rumania
(Skryking) never got past the setup as i never got any reply after mailing the files the first time over a month ago.

Due to this, and upcoming holiday abroad with heavy workload after that, i hereby withdraw from the WC, this time...

Good luck to all of you, and keep up the good DAR-work!

Kind of a Double Elimination setup. (You've got to lose twice to be 'out')

Those who lost their first battle (like me ), go through a second round with others who lost their first battle.

If you lose a second time, you're out. If not, you play your next round against those who lost their Second round World Cup battle (yet to be determined).

The winners of the second round 'Back Ladder' go on to battle the losers from the third round of the World Cup, etc.

Finally, the winner of the World Cup front round battles the winner of the Back Ladder.

This way, it would be possible for a player to lose one (and only one) battle and still win the World Cup.

Or I could just go sit in the Stalag and mind my own business.

The " back ladder " idea sound's ok to me but lets add a little twist.......any of the winners on the back ladder have to take 25% less in build points when playing someone on the first ladder
only kidding.........

Hey everyone

Ive been gone and probaly dropped from competition

[Brutto-Bob]

Final result:

Gmenfan (USA) 6441

a Draw.

I think black ladder is fine but how can we try the management overhead low? What I mean is that I don't want to keep a track of where everybody is at.

[red]

here are the round 2 contenders:

VikingNo2
Gary Tatro
Tankhead
Brutto-Bob
Big Bill
rbrunsman
