Unrated is preferred by me as well.

Actually I would lean on the side of rated, but either works for me.

I would also prefer starting December 18, but again, I will do what others need.
My primary preference for unrated is because another FoW tournament is about to start that will pretty much wipe out my points. I'd hate to have to choose between torunaments.

Hi folks

In the next day or so I'll send out the game invites by PM for the 1066 Tourney. Just a reminder that in the heats you'll play each country (England, Normans and Norwegians) twice for a total of 6 games. As discussed games will be unrated and anonymous.

I reread this thread and there was no discussion on how many simultaneous games you'd be happy with eg in the 901 tourney we're only playing 2 simultaneous games at a time.

I'm thinking of doing the same as they're doing for that tourney. I'll set up all 18 games in the tourney at once and send you the passwords for your 6 games. Then as each player is ready to join they just sign up. This way you can sign up for all 6 games at once, or you might only feel like doing 1 or 2 at the time if you're maxed out in other games.

Reminder the players are:
1. GOD
2. ubercacher16
3. Greatdjenkins
4. YouCan'tHandleTheTruth
5. mouse (OK with unrated)
6. Battalion
7. Mr. Finkelmuiyer
8. fasces349
9. Maucat (requested unrated tourney)

1st replacement - Murcanic

If your circumstances have changed and you want out of the tourney now is the time to let me know.

If there's anything else you want clarified before we kick things off please PM me or post to this thread. Otherwise I'll set up the games and advise details to you very soon.

My name got somehow confused with Battalion, who retreated from the tournament on page two. Ortherwise I am fine with your suggestion.
Apologies tobi. My mistake. Revised lineup:

1. GOD
2. ubercacher16
3. Greatdjenkins
4. YouCan'tHandleTheTruth
5. mouse
6. tobi1
7. Mr. Finkelmuiyer
8. fasces349
9. Maucat

And just confirming 48 hour phases but obviously read up when you can.

On page 1 of the thread there was some talk about whether it would be full press or gunboat. But this wasn't clearly resolved. I'm thinking gunboat, but again if more folks want full press I'll make it full press.
I'm good either way on press, but if gunboat, I request it also be anon. 48 hour phases are gine by me.
ubercacher16 (2169 D)
31 Dec 17 UTC
48 hours are good. I don't mind with Press.
I prefer gunboat.
Earlier discussions suggested anon would be the way to go to reduce the risk of folks being prejudiced against a well performing player.

Still plenty of time (about 24 hours or so) to get your preference in re gunboat/press & clarify any last points.
Hi folks, being the first tourney I've ever run I need to double check with the mods on how to assign players to each game.

I've got the draw done up and worked out how to track scoring, so hopefully this will kick off very soon.

Remember I play only unranked tournament.
Unranked or unrated?
If anyone else in the tourney has a view on this, please let me know .
mouse (1825 D)
02 Jan 18 UTC
Might want to confirm everyone who signed up is still present and interested; one of the people signed up for this was recently removed from the 1v1 tourney for being entirely unresponsive for more than 2 weeks.

Otherwise, my preferences are:
No stance on rated/unrated, so I'll defer to those who have a strong preference.
Lean towards gunboat for tourneys, but willing to play full diplo as well.
Anon pools with public rotation - you don't know who you're playing against, but you *do* know that the same player is behind, say, England in games 1 and 2, Norway in games 3 and 4 and Normandy in games 5 and 6.
Thanks mouse good call. I'll PM everyone.
Hi folks - waiting for 4 players to confirm the PM I sent.
fasces349 (1007 D)
03 Jan 18 UTC
still interested; no opinion on rating; would lean towards full press, but am happy with gunboat; I like Mouses suggestion of knowing the same player controls which country.
Thanks fasces.
Maucat (1834 D)

Yep got it Maucat. Thanks.

Hey guys, I'll start travelling next week for a few months and I am not sure about my connectivity yet...so either you will have to find someone new or wait a week until I know wether I will have a secure connection :/
Thanks GOD, Murcanic is ready to fill his spot.

I'll send out the game invites today.

1900 for vDip: Progress Report (ongoing)
As mentioned in another thread, I've been working on the code and assets necessary to port Baron M. Powell's variant 1900 to vDip and/or webDip.

In order to keep myself accountable in some fashion to actually complete this task, and not just talk about it, I've created a small project plan where I can mark my progress.

Taking over Civil Disorders should be free of charge
Reasoning: the player who takes over a Civil Disorder is not just putting themself in a precarious position (as they must evaluate everybody's styles and strategies) but they are also saving the game's balance and fun.

In order to reward/incentive people to take more CDs, I believe that making it free of charge (rather than current 50% discount) would be for the best. Thoughts?

Cold War Tournament
I am looking to start a rated Cold War tournament consisting of group and knockout stages. Groups of 4 will face each other twice, once as each country. The top two (or three, pending interest) from each group will move on to the knockout stage, with each matchup lasting two games. Users will play as each country once. If tied 1-1, an additional two games are played until a winner is determined.

Feature Request: Friends List
Similar to how the site already has functionality for muting and blocking other players, we should be able to add them to a friends list so that tracking them down to send PMs is more convenient. It would also make hosting games with players you know you enjoy playing with much easier. I don’t believe that this feature is currently in the issue tracker, and it seems like it would be very easy to implement given the current muting and blocking features already in place.
