Tournament - Invulnerable Challenge

[geoschmo]

If I understand the concept behind this, the only real reason to put it on PBW is to prevent players from going back a few turns every time something happens they don't like. If you think that will be a problem then PBW is the way to go.

Geo,

I would very much like to set this up on PBW. I think that it would help tracking, administration, and help promote a level playing field.

If you see any barriers to what I propose, please let me know.

Also I am considering setting up a simple tournament web page just for fun when this kicks off.

Tesco- you have good points. Glad to see the fighting spirit.

Nodachi- Hmmm... this may be a learning experience for newbies... if newbies want a learning experience that makes them say "What the F?!?!" and scream incessantly while they run up and down the street banging their heads on random objects.

[Nodachi]

Stone Mill- That's my point. Getting your butt handed to you is one of the best ways to learn!

[tesco samoa]

you sure nod... you seem to buck the trend

[Nodachi]

Gee, thanks Tesco.

Actually, I have learned from getting my butt handed to me, How many games am I your ally instead of your opponent?

[tesco samoa]

Yes I have fond memories of declaring war on you in every game we were playing together in a span of one week

[Nodachi]

Yeah, I remember one (Adamant 5, I think) where I was glad that you finally finished me off, I was running out of creative ways to tell the galaxy that your race was evil!

In truth there have been only a few games that have really taught me about how to play. The Koth games have taught me how to build my empire and expand (although I'm still working on that ). I think the pace of the KOTH games is what helps, the turns come in so quickly that you don't have time to lose focus of what you're doing. I just wish more people would be willing to try different and unusual settings.

I play for fun, as a way to relax. I don't care if I win or not (not that I lose on purpose, beleive it or not ), I just want to have a good time. Now if I can just get RL off my back for awhile I'd be good to go!
