I'm pretty sure they run one after the other.

Chrisp- I leave tomorrow for vacation, so you should probably recruit 1 more person

Also, when you pick a map can you let us know? I like to try out my builds on the map itself to get a feel for them.

Also, please link to it as there are TWO world of geometries :*(

Well, I was hoping to run them all concurrently; to avoid bias due to people learning about the nations and the map.

Remember the games will all end on turn 50; so hopefully we avoid a lot of endgame madness

Also, we will give everyone enough time to get turns in.

With those considerations, what do you think Jazz/Frozen I'd like to try to do these concurrently. But I'm not inflexible.

Ideally, if you can spend 3 hours on a turn, it should matter whether it was one game or 6. We just have to extend the turn deadlines appropriately.

I can't reasonably take on the responsibility of 6 games at once. I could probably swing 2, since they have a 50 turn limit cap, but 6 is too many. I tend to do a lot of research for my builds, and I usually draw up scenarios in practice games when I'm trying to figure out how someone else's units will fair against my own.

I must have misunderstood...

I thought we would play one game at a time and then rotate to the next Nation. We would in effect play 6 games but one right after the other.

From what I am reading here we are playing 6 games at one time. There is no way I can devote that much time in a bloc to D3.

I have a business to run and I am out of town on weekends playing ball.

Let me know if I am misunderstanding the setup.

However, my take on this is that we shouldn't know the map until we start the game. Why would I want to play someone who has already mastered that particular map and thier nation. But then I am not that good a player soI wouldn't know what I was doing anyway!!

well this is not good.....

6 games at once is pretty intense. I mean, if we have like a 72h timer on all of them, and give a ton of delays i suppose we could probably do it. I can do them at once, maybe, but i agree, that's a LOT of work. i also thought we rotated.

unfortunatly, i see this game dissolving realy quick. maybe we could compromise at like 2 or 3 games?

This isn't a problem - I can go with whatever everyone ones whether its one - or six.

Why don't we all just say the maximum number of games we can do -And whoever is the lowest, we'll just peg it at that?

Doesn't matter to me! So when do we pick our other nations?

Re: Tournament of Champions! 1 More needed
 
you dont... nations are all picked... they are rotated.. see first post. Lets assume that we do two games.... #1 and 2.

If you gowith max two games at same time, then I would be interested in this :) If that would be the case and you have room for me, then I think one MA nation would be in order. Instead of my usual Pangaea ( :) ) I would in that case like to suggest MA Marignon :)
