RE: Tournament - Outlaw Josey Wales - 09-15-2024 One idea is, 1 for Major loss, 2 for Minor loss, 3 for Draw, 4 for Minor victory, 5 for Major victory or 1,3,5,7,9 something like that. Everybody scores something positive just for playing. Easiest math. Or, if one player scores 5 points, other player scores -5. Rotate pairings for next match playing everybody or highest vs highest or highest vs lowest, second highest vs second lowest etc. RE: Tournament - Panzerjäger - 09-17-2024 Hi Friends, I will play in the tournament.

I find the 2nd variant more interesting RE: Tournament - Scud - 09-20-2024 I found Crossroads original Forum thread for the World in Flames tournament. I'm thinking we use it as our guide. The scoring looks easy enough: Points
I'm thinking of bagging #2. Sounds unnecessary and too much to keep track of, but open to suggestions. In the second post there are the opening scenarios Petri used. There was even a team game if we'd want to do that. Looks like he had different scenarios for different players. I think it might be better for everyone to be playing the same scenario at the same time, but what does everyone think? Potential name for the tournament: World in Flames Redux Time to choose your sides. I don't care, so I'll join whatever team needs some fodder. :) Dave Signups so far (speak up if you're not on the list!): Kernel t Outlaw Josey Wales Zap Nort Herr Straße Laufer Von Luck MikeWarFlag KiloMikePapa nim8or Dan Caviness Dawags Schwerpunkt75 itlnprd Hawk Kriegsman Ashcloud The Hemp Sir Killalot VoteQuimby Big Ivan Scud Panzerjaeger RE: Tournament - Big Ivan - 09-20-2024 Hey Dave, 1.) Points look good but perhaps consider a top Allied and Axis winner, also plus an overall winner (or most games played)? Three metals I guess. 2.) Bag it. 3.) Sounds good! 4.) Same scenario for everyone doesn't sound bad. But the big key is picking relatively balanced scenarios that are not monsters and move along quick and freely. Time limits need to be set for sure! Is it possible to do a myriad of different scenarios that are balance but not everybody in the field plays the same scenario. Also do we follow the timeline of the war or mix it up? 5.)Also when this tournament gets going it's closed to new active players but keep a list of any players that want to join after that as tourney alternates! Let's face it, real life can bite us all in the ass and some may have to drop out but we want a field of backups if we need it. We all understand about real life! 6.) World in Flames Redux is not bad. But consider Freeing a World Gone Mad or World War-Us and Them (I do love Pink Floyd music)! 7.) Not sure how to handle individual scenario matchups!? Random pick maybe? But a thought: until a player plays everyone in the field at least once he cannot repeat against the same player! Might be tough to keep track of though!? 8.) I'm probably fodder too so don't feel bad Dave, but the last time in the World in Flames tourney I was on the Allies side. This time I'll go with the Axis!!  Big Ivan 
RE: Tournament - KiloMikePapa - 09-20-2024 Allies RE: Tournament - Outlaw Josey Wales - 09-20-2024 Axis. Scoring - 1,2,3,4,5 or 1,3,5,7,9 Addition only, easiest math. Same scenario each round. Balance doesn't matter. Allied player points are compared to Allied players only. Axis compared to Axis only. Two winners. Say, I play Big Ivan first, second round keep Allied players in place and rotate Axis players one place up or down. Next round, do it again same direction. Eventually, I rotate back around to Big Ivan. End of Tournament. Name - Axis vs Allies or all scenarios for a Campaign like France or EF 1941, 42, 43 etc Something like that. RE: Tournament - Jason Petho - 09-21-2024 I agree with outlaw on the point scoring. You should get a point at least for playing, win lose or draw. Quote:Scoring - 1,2,3,4,5 or 1,3,5,7,9 Addition only, easiest math. RE: Tournament - The Hemp - 09-21-2024 I like playing the Axis. My usual pick in games. Whatever the rules, I'm in. RE: Tournament - Colonel Slack-Goodspeed - 09-21-2024 I'd like to join the tournament as well. I haven't played in a few years so if that is a problem understood. |
