Mega-Dueling Tournament - Rules, Settings, Check List, and Sign Ups

Expressing interest with a caveat: I won't play against a water nation.
Also, I fon't get your method of choosing a number between 0 and 99. Unless you consider 0 to be closer to 99 than to 98 (i.e. numbers wrap), then 50 has the highest probability of being closer to any random number, and picking anything but 49 or 50 is a losign strategy.

Please make it 48h for hosting schedule. 24h can be rather stressing. On a small map there's no real MM of any sort but since it's a tournament turns will require extra deliberation

Not strictly true - if more than 2 players need to compete, the player choosing 50 is likely to get sandwiched between 49 and 51, and thus be virtually guaranteed to not get it.

Honestly, the nation should just be randomly assigned so there isn't some crazy game theory based on n-person number picking where n is a variable going on. (My guess is 40 or 60 is optimal with 3 people, 35 or 75 with 4 people, etc... - but at some point choosing centrally becomes a winning strategy if everyone follows the above strategy, or if everyone else unluckily picks the same side of 50).

Oh, expressing interest.

Alas, mid-Jan is probably too soon for me to start another game. However, I wanted to post so you'd know there is interest in this mega-duel format beyond those who have signed up.
