Re: Cripple Fight 2: The Lamepire Strikes Back!

can we say MA oceania? lol.

and i support that. i would submit adding EA agartha too. Also, machaka, boragus can come back, and maybe Jomon

Re: Cripple Fight 2: The Lamepire Strikes Back!

MA Oceania? A cripple? I shall need to defend their honor! (Hopefully by the time CF3 gets started a game or two will have ended, at least for me.)

Glad to hear that you are back! Don't worry, I'll bring up the "menu" for CF 3 later today so that you can pick your poison.

Although wondering if the remaining Cripples are now so few in numbers that CF3 will be too blitz like to genuinely call any win a win. Since the value of the likes of EA Abysia and Eriu goes up considerably if there's no late game to worry about. Maybe invite a few honourable Cripples to the show, such as MA Man, MA Agartha. Since both of those should never really be able to win a proper game. Other candidates possible as well.

We'll we are keeping the rules as same. No nations that have won a game. But, there are all those "0.5" wins on some nations because they have got a draw (which is not winning, although a special case might be brought up for this CF2 game). So there will be some new blood for the next game.

Also, it is my dream that someday we will really have just four nations or something left and just blitz until we have a clear loser, the most crippled of the crippled. The prophesied "anti-winner", the "unredeemable", the one that can only be gazed upon with pity. I want to know which nation is the worst in the game! Yes, those games with under 6 players won't be eligble for a HoF spot, but the wins from these games are quite disputable for the HoF spot already even with 6+ players (because the competition is seriously cut down)

I'm stickin to the "no win" rule. The current rules are just as arbitary, I know. But they are clear and not subject to opinions. If you made a thread asking for weak nations, we would likely get like 30 nations as candidates. If we put in MA Man (2 wins IIRC and a real cripple), we should likely also put in EA Ulm (2 wins too), if we put in EA Ulm, we should also put in EA R'lyeh (definately crippled and 1.5 wins), if we put EA R'lyeh, we shoul put in.. (etc)

It's a slippery slope my friend, leading to a absolute clusterf*ck :D

I'll list the nations for the next game in this thread later today. I'll make a thread for CF 3 in easter or after it, depending on how my work and holiday days pan out.

Re: Cripple Fight 2: The Lamepire Strikes Back!

It's good to be back Burns :) Not back 100% yet, but slowly freeing up 'me' time by trouble shooting my RL problem list.

Entirely your call on leaving it as 'Cripples' only. So only non-winners it is then. (which does include the 0.5's as you say).

But I demand an official enquiry into the accounts of MA Man. 2 wins. F$%£ OFF is all I have to say to that! Has JK/KO or QM been around with the steroids since I was last here or something? I demand answers, and a headcount on stuffed brown paper bags.

And didn't QM solve a lot of MA Oceania problems by getting rid of the magic path loss on land their mages suffer from. Or am I imagining that happened in the last CBM?!? (although that's not to say the nation isn't still struggling even with this boost)

Re: Cripple Fight 2: The Lamepire Strikes Back!

Okay, here is the list of nations for CF 3, assuming that the result from CF2 is inconclusive and both EA Ermor and EA Tir prove their non-crippletidute.

Code:



EARLY AGE:



Abysia: 0

Atlantis: 0.5* 



MIDDLE AGE:



T'ien Ch'i: .5

Agartha: .5

Bandar Log: 0

Eriu: 0 



LATE AGE:



Caelum: .5

Arcoscephale: 0 -- reserved by PM by Agent Smith

Atlantis: 0.5 -- reserved by PM by Frozen llama

*I'm not counting Kianduatha's win in Libra for this purpose, because the UWGIM mod used in the game is custom-build to improve UW nations and we are looking at CBM cripples. (I did count Kientsensei's Oceania win though, because HW is a more global mod, improving all nations at least somewhat the same level)

Re: Cripple Fight 2: The Lamepire Strikes Back!

Bandar Log did win the Fastblitz game, if you're at all interested in results from a five-player, 300% gold/resources/supply game.

Well five players is basically a blitz and many of the nations listed have blitz wins, so I can say that it won't count for this purpose.

Blitz wins will only count after I say that they do, which is when we get down to under 6 nations :P. Although at that point I should probably make a spin-off game that just had weak nations in selection. I think that there is demand for crippletastic games.

Re: Cripple Fight 2: The Lamepire Strikes Back!

I'll take MA agartha

Bandar also won the Lapis game.

Re: Cripple Fight 2: The Lamepire Strikes Back!

you could add some of the weaker mod nations
