The World at War ELO Tournament

[ElvisJJonesRambo]

New game started:
ThundarLizard (Axis) vs ElvisJJonesRambo (Allies).

Only play 1-game limited time, maybe a second. Sanity check.

I would like to join too.

ELO game has ended. pjg100 (Allies) v. Jackmck (Axis), pjg100 won. Hard fought game. Axis started strong in Poland and China, but bogged down in France and made little headway in China past Nanning, Changsha and Chengchow. Allies slapped the IT fleet around in the Adriatic but were slapped back, there were ships littering the seafloor between Trieste and Dubrovnik. Axis resigned August 30, 1940, with Paris still (barely) standing.

Land, if you could port over my stat from the SC-WiE tournament, I would appreciate it, thanks.

I would be up for another game, if someone is interested.

I've talked to my military high command, no more playing 6+ games at once. My limit is 2, and only 2. No more temptation to play so many. Also, I like to stagger my "start times", so I don't use the same strategy in both games, or get confused. Remembering ship movements, and and WTF is going on, critical in competitive games. Waiting forever for a turn, drives me nuts too.

Yeah - makes sense, good to pace yourself and stay sane!

Didn't take long to get a game.

JM74 and Elvis, have started a mirrored set. Went against my "no mirrored rule" and "don't start games at the same time rule", but since I'm on different sides, won't get confused on strategy, if I even have one.

This is better than a heroin addiction. Thanks

Good marketing slogan right there!

New game started:
Taifun (Axis) vs Marcinos1985 (Allies). Standard house rules plus Denmark issue. The board seems huge but very crowded! I think this will be a very complicated game playing against such an experienced player!

Allies sued for peace in May 1942. Grats to Axis commander, those WiE guys are strong.

Many thanks Marcin for this interesting game . Learner a lot and made a few serious mistakes.

Seeking a veteran player, I am now available for a new game as Axis...

The stronger WiE guys are strong, but those of us who die on our backsides in the WiE tournament would fare similarly here [:D]

There you go!

[The Land]

Just a note about this for ranking purposes:

ORIGINAL: ElvisJJonesRambo
ElvisJJonesRambo resigns games to kidegan, Marcinos1985, taffjones, & Thunderlizard11.

I am provisionally treating these games as 'match abandoned', which means they don't get entered in the tournament. If any of the games were still at an early stage or where Elvis had an advantage then I would prefer they stayed as 'match abandoned'. But if any of the other players wants to claim the wins for tournament purposes then please drop me a message and I shall update the rankings.

[pjg100]

Thanks!
