Finally the game in Group B finished.

Hahaha. I entered orders for all my units to love backwards and let Russia win. But he didn’t enter any orders at all. And France is CD. Only England entered sensible orders and they were just mutual support. We may never finish

I wait to know when and how to play the next game

Standing for group B:
Maucat 10 points
AE 4 points
Nuclear Surok 3 points
YCHTT 2 points
MR Finkle... 0 point

life got in my way, orders are entered sorry about that Grahamso

Gratz on the solo Maucat. Once you got behind Germany's line, it was inevitable.

Sorry for my inactivity, everyone. Shfinkle will be replaced, but I would like Group A's input on whether the first game should be replayed. To confirm, Nuclear Surok will be taking TWCBSD's place in the tournament due to the latter's CD.

Maucat's scoring is correct.

so group B game 2. When/how do we get it going. Game 1 was most enjoyable.

I am ready to play round 2, perhaps should be better in anonymous mode (and always unranked).

All games are non-anon for the opening round robin. That was agreed upon at the start. No changing midway through.

I don’t think we should restart game A1. It should be drawn

When we'll start round 2?

All games are non-anon, unranked, and gunboat. To the players in Group A, if you want to restart the game, vote Cancel. Otherwise you may continue as is.

Sorry but I said before - the game is a complete joke. multiple missed phases have distorted the position from what should almost certainly been a 4 way draw with Russia largest etc. to now it will be a Russia win. I am disbanding and retreating all units to just get the game over with so I don't have to deal with it. Russia is not interested in entering Draw and is just pushing on as if it is a sensible game. This happens in games all the time of course that someone CD's but in this case it distorts the tournament. I said I would stay in the tournament if the game is properly "adjudicated" to a fair result, but otherwise I would prefer a replacement be found

AE when do you think to start the second round of group B?

The second round of Group B will start when Group A's first game has been resolved. We need to find a replacement for Shfinkle and the players need to decide what do do with Group A. Do you want to restart or continue as is? If no consensus is reached, I'll make the final decision as tournament director.

Have you tried to ask to "Dr. Recommended" ?

Restart is better than as is. The third alternative is a draw so we haven’t wasted our time. That’s the right approach. Second choice restart (very unfair to Russia. But fair to the New France). Third choice as it is. In which case you will need a replacement for me too

Seems to me a restart is the fairest to everyone. It's tough to say what would have happened with Russia had issues not arisen in group A's first game. If Russia is that good, he'll do well again, but I would recommend a remixing of the players/games so the exact same combo doesn't appear with Ratfink's replacement in for him.

Of course, I'm in Group B so I'm not hurt by the decision. But it also means my view is an impartial one.

I would make it Russia’s call. I am not sure he even thought solo until the game fell apart. It wails save time if he agrees and we move on. Or we restart. But he has not responded here. He will win the game next move. I am making sure of that then he will communicate his view hopefully

My view is we should restart Group A's game after we find a replacement for Shfinkle. I'll scramble the nations, and Group B Game 2 will start at that time as well.

Honestly. Turn just processed in game A. Murcanic is still entering orders like it’s not utterly and completed weird. And has not responded here. Honestly, I would prefer not to be in this “tournament”. If the remaining guys want to carry go ahead.

I was going for a solo and was in a good position, France falling apart is a shame but I'll be okay with another game?

its just another game really though its a shame after the work was put into this one for it to fall apart but I understand it, was going great eliminating Germany but ya these things happen... shame that people that sign up leave.

But ya for fairness I understand a restart. I will however want to solo this current game for the sake of completion, even though it is unrated.

Haha we call that stat padding. Go ahead, but you'll be restarting Group A Game 1.

There is news about the Group A?

We'll be restarting once I find a replacement for Shfinkle.

Restarting Group A Game 1 and starting Group B game 2
