Bump. Looks like we only need one more for each.

I will be traveling for the next week. When I get back I'll go through the sign-ups and set the rosters, so we can get started.

Yeah, the next week or two are busy for me with a graduating senior... I always have connection on my phone (you know how annoying big maps can be on those!) so I can enter orders if needed... But don't feel rushed. Between the grad party, graduation, and getting him to Orlando for his 2-day orientation at UCF, I will be a busy dad the rest of this month.

Gratz on your sons graduation and heading off to UCF, Samj.

Yeah, i propose that we wait until august. I don't mind starting earlier, but I'd definitely prefer later. At least with one of the tourneys.
Grats Samj!

Thanks, I'm a proud Papa... Got enough academic scholarships/grants to make it full ride, actually getting paid $900 a year to go to college! So I'm very happy... As usual, I will do whatever is decided by the group, it should be over before the known world map gets too expansive for me.

Ooops... not known world... Aberration..

First Sengoku score update

4) kaner406, tantrumizer [3 each]
5) S83
6) El Cremoso [4]
7) A84

2) El Cremoso ------ 5
3) kaner406, ------ 4
4) Eki83, mouse ------ 2
5) Dr. Rec, Samj, Leif_Syverson, ------ 1

I think it should be

1) Tantrumizer ------ 8
2) El Cremoso ------ 5
3) kaner406, Eki83, mouse ------ 4
4) Dr. Rec, Samj, Leif_Syverson, ------ 1

Great games so far. Thanks again for this variant tourney idea, Dr. Rec. it's been a blast.

Thanks for updating. Glad you're enjoying it, I am too. Feel free to sign up for the next ones!

I'm back from travelling but have exams and a gig this weekend, so it'll be sometime during the upcoming week that I set rosters and get the next tournaments going. They will be starting asap, d-ice, so let me know if you want to sit these out and wait for the next.

What do you play, DR?

I know we said 30 for the new round per game. Can we shift that down just a wee bit? I have 186 which gives me 26 per game. I've no problem spending it all, but I am afraid I might not have the extra 24 needed down the line if I don't pick up a draw in one of my other rated games soon.

P.S. I don't mind spending all my points in the tournament. I just don't want to cause a problem down the line so 25 or 26 per game is fine.

Yeah... I have only 46 available points right now because I am in many games. I will probably have more points by the time we actually start, but a 20-point bet would work better for me than a 30-point bet.

I am now saving everything I have for this tournament, so if my lack disqualifies me, let me know and I'll leave and come back to this series when I'm better.

I'll go down to 20, that's fine.

YCH, I play:
- Guitar in a funky jam band/electronica group (see artist Keez, album Water Creatures on Spotify etc.)
- Bass in a trio that does @1/3 originals, and the rest covers (Zeppelin, Petty, Prince, etc.)
- Guitar & bass in a funk/rock band doing 1/2 originals/covers (Sweet Vandals, Meters, Bill Withers, Talking Heads, etc.)
- Acoustic fretless bass in a gypsy jazz trio, covers (Django Reinhardt, etc.) and 1/3 originals (see Brandon Campbell, album Ten from the Galley)

Enough to keep gig money coming in while I'm going through school.

Although, I've got the Fog games already created @ 30. I'll figure this out soon, too much going on today and tomorrow.

Well, if I'm short when the last game comes around, I'm sure someone will loan me the extra, right DR?

We'll make it work.

Thanks, Doc.
(May I call you Doc? Or do you prefer Dr. Rec? Or something else entirely?)

Whatever you like, Mr. Finkles ;)

That... just might be the worst one yet.

Well then, my job is done here ;)

DR: I'm in for FoW at least. Abberation... that depends on when it actually starts...

Is it too late? I want join.

I'm leaving this open a little longer. I'm also going to add a Dutch Revolt 5x5 tournament as well. byoxygen, I need to see your reliability rating come up before including you in one of these. NMRs really have a negative impact, especially when it's not just one game that's affected. Please bring that RR up and I'll be happy to consider you for future iterations.

I'd be down for the FoW tournament, if you guys are willing to have me on board.

One small question: I have never been in any 'Moderated' game before, to what extent does it differ from a regular game?

R57? Too bad. I have 3 CD.

Bob, just copy and paste the list of interested players with your name included. As for moderated games, it will depend. In this case the games will be normal, I will just be able to pause, extend, etc. as needed to maintain integrity of tournament (for shuffling players into correct nation assignments, resolving issues, waiting for replacements if needed, etc.)

byoxogen, yes, out of 9 finished games. 22 missed phases out of 135. These are not good numbers, especially for a tournament with committed players.
