RE: CMAK - Mundial - round 1 - MGK(FGM) - 04-16-2007 Stirlitz said :) Hello everybody, First of all I'd like to thank Bootie and Poor Old Spike for assuming a priori that I am a cheat whose real intention is to give away passwords to CMHQ players if not for personal gain then at least for the sake of increasing the chance of the tournament being won by a Polish player. Very clever of you to figure out my true motives ;) Joking aside, the password clause is primarily meant to give the umpire, that is me, a possibility to quickly check if a game has been properly set up. You must admit that the set-up parameters are a bit complicated and taking into account the tendency of some players to skip through such instructions (by the way the rules of the competition have been up for over a month now, but somehow no-one raised any objections until today :) I fear that mistakes are not unlikely to occur. I'd rather be able to spot them now than in a month's time. Additionally, as MGK rightly pointed out, the umpire might use the password to resolve (in a fair manner) all those battles which are not complete at the end of the round but have reached a specific number of turns. Actually instances of a player's conduct being challenged for some reason or other were last on my list. Anyway, such an arrangement has been used in some tournaments organized by CMHQ and worked fine. Having said that, I am obviously in no position to force you to provide your password and I'm not going to require you to supply it now as long as you're willing to do it upon request. Somehow I trust your honesty. However if problems with the scenario setup do occur and some games will have to be restarted, be it on your head ;) And one more thing. The results of the draw indeed may leave the impression that this is a CMHQ versus Rest of the World tournament especially in the context of this silly World Cup hype that still appears to be going on here and there. Let me spell it out once again - this is an INDIVIDUAL tournament. Please do not see it in terms of "them versus us". It is every man for himself. No teams. The actual pairings are due to the fact that drawing CMHQ players against Blitz/FGM/AF was the simplest way to keep the promise that in the first round players from the same club will not be drawn against each other. Rest assured that in the following rounds this will no longer be the case. Kind regards and good luck in the tournament Stirlitz RE: CMAK - Mundial - round 1 - Copper - 04-16-2007 Thanks Stirlitz.... I'll set my game up today and send it to my opponent. RE: CMAK - Mundial - round 1 - MGK(FGM) - 04-16-2007 Poor Old Spike I hope you do the same but of course you don't have to tell your password if it is a problem for you RE: CMAK - Mundial - round 1 - PoorOldSpike - 04-16-2007 Okay, Bootie's happy to stay in, so I'm happy to stay in too.. :) And i'll give my password.. :) RE: CMAK - Mundial - round 1 - MGK(FGM) - 04-16-2007 Great :) and I hope you enjoy this scenario :) RE: CMAK - Mundial - round 1 - fluidwill - 04-16-2007 I can't quite believe it myself but I've made a plan, bought some forces and sent my setup to my opponent so all I have to do now is implement my cunning scheme and sit back and wait for victory:smoke: :chainsaw::chainsaw::chainsaw: |
