Mr Quiet, you chose the right teammate

, and I'm equally glad to have you as a partner. BTW, why aren't we scheduled to play against rhj1971/a511 as Allies in 6)? Seems we are the missing pair there.
And Jan, would be nice to have you in this too! You can be the last needed player
Having a good partner is actualy a double edged sword. It will help you win the uncommon valor scenario but can seriously bite you in the ass in the East vs West. I do belive there will be some very interesting drama in this tournament.
The reason we are not the Allies in game 6 is because I plan to leave sign-ups open for 2 full weeks after the tourney starts. In the last tourney we got some straggler players who decided they wanted to join, and I figure the more teams we get the better for the tournament. Once the AARs become interesting some more players may wish to join. A two week delay in our second game will most likely be no big deal in the greater scheme of things.
I would really like to see Jan join this one also. Its just not a tournament without
the master player in the fold.

fcam1387 you must have posted while I was composing my message.
You are definately in and that means the tournament is now ON!
2 bad I have been out drinking for the last 6 hours or I would start game 1) right now.
Sign-ups will remain open until Sunday March 11.
All of you German players remember to use the Uncommon Valor Scenario, and to set the games up for 4 players when you start your games.
Good Luck to all!

MrQuiet:
Two more weeks for signs up seems a lot of time, I'm saying this because the last team (for the moment me and a511) won't be able to send the first turn to you and Avatar, until march the 12th.
Have you thought of it, or was it a slip from your 6 hours with Baco (Roman wine's god [;)])
Maybe you should reduce this period.
Rafael.

At a turn per week we will only be behind by 2 turns.
If the new team is anxious to play we could even catch up quickly.
You most likely will not be waiting that long as we could possibly have another team join by the end of today.
>>>Jan and Christian I am lookin at you
Now I must be off to start my teams Axis Game.

Hhmmm Jan and Christian [&o][&o][&o], just a piece of cake
Maybe we should start diplomatic conversations for

.
What the heck I've been beaten before so I might as well be beaten by some of the best. Besides a511 is good, very good [;)]

Team--Players
A) MrQuiet/Avatar47
B) GKar/mikemcmann
C) dobeln/BoerWar
D) kondor/Dahnyul
E) Haudrauf1962/fcam1387
F) rjh1971/a511
There are some pretty tough opponents there... IMO MrQuiet/Avatar47 and rjh1971/a511 will reach the finals

. Altough dobeln/BoerWar could also get far... And if Jan/Charlie (or some other "master" players) decide to join this may change.
I would be happy if I could make it into 2nd round[:D]
ps. I think that would be better if the moderator could open new thread for all tournaments, so that is not in clash with opponents wanted...

I lack the time to join as well as prefer 1vs1 rather than 2vs2, sorry.
I will enjoy watching from the sideline instead.

Thanks for the compliments, but so far I've got clobbered by Christian, a511, and Mrquiet.
And still only some battles won on my side but no wars [:@]
Wanderinghead might be the next one to kick my arse.
Anyway I hope to be as troublesome as possible, you also learn from the defeats. [:D]

I also prefer 1 vs 1 (or at least I think I do since I have never played 2 vs 2).
But I wanted to see the kool game option of continuing on in East vs West get utilized and hear about the storys via AAR.
The decisions that have to be made on the allied side when the end of the Axis is drawing near.
The tension over how long or even if the WA wants to lend lease Ru.
Some of these decisions could have a severe impact on allied play since they can not totaly trust their
friends across the sea

A note to my partners and opponents: I'm still recovering from my move ("Hmm, what was in which box again?!") and have a crappy internet connection at the moment (telecommunication companies - either they're doing wonders or they seem to do nothing at all...), but I will send my turn eventually.

I fully understand you, Gkar I went through one last summer, and I don't want to rememeber it, something like a nightmare, even the fact that we moved to a bigger house until everything was in place it took a couple of weeks. Before moving I had works done in the house horrible...
My pc was unpacked two weeks later from the move.
So Gkars opponents, have some patient.

Hi everybody, and MrQuiet in particular...
I am interested in joining in, but lacking a "partner-in crime". Don't know if you have a free spot either.
So, if there is somebody out there to join me maybe we could throw a challenge?
(The towel may soon follow...)

So you finally decided to join Marshall Art [;)] Hhmm I knew it was not going to take you long to master the sequel to GGWAW --> AWD
edit: forgot to write the negative "not" which changes completely the meaning of the sentence

I am adding you to the list Marshall Art.
Hopefully others will follow.
GKar goodluck.
I remember my last move, and it certainly takes a while to feel you are back to normal.

Hi,
If not more than 1 game running at the same time then I'd like to join.
I would have think of a partner but he seems already in [:-]
At least I'll know a bit how he plays already [;)] not sure it will help me much [:(]
Cheers,

Marshall Art, you can take my spot if you like, I didn't make a move yet anyway. I don't have much time at my hands at the moment and made it to the second round of the 1vs1 tournament, so I fear that I'd be the bottleneck here once again.

Hmmm... GKar, I guess you will also be as slow playing our 2v2 game as well. If that is also the case, should we find a replacement for you?

Cheers,
Polonthi you would be involved in 2 games at once.
But do realize that 2 vs 2 is a very very slow game.
Playing 2 games of 2vs2 will probably consume less of your time per week than 1 game of 1on1.
So, should we start off the tournament?
Dobeln:
Yes indeed, the tournament has started and you should know that you are required to post in the appropiate threads
here and
here in the AAR section of the Forum.

Yes, that's what I meant. Marshall Art can take over for me if he wants, both games are untouched by me.
