It's time for a new Tournament...Ratings Bash I

[primitive]

Hands Slynky and Alneyan a horn each of the good stuff.

It’s been a good week

Skål.

Primitive's analysis of the game is spot on. I chose the quick knock out blow and Primitive was able to absorb it. My home systems were in the corner of the map and I realized that a long game would have been difficult for me to win.

BBegemott surrenders to Asmala. He played in no-mistaky style and desreved this victory.

Congratulations with the 3rd place!

Thanks for the game BBegemott. I think the key for my victory was the starting position. I started much nearer the center than you so I was able to grab a bigger part of the galaxy. The result was I had bigger resource income, but I made one mistake: I stopped building research centers too early, when I had about 200k research points (it was a high research cost game). Even though my ships weren't so advanced as BBgemott's, my numbers overwhelmed his fleets.

The map was Geo's Balanced map and it was nice. The only problem was the amount of planets: it was quite laborious to maintain over 500 planets and 1000 ships.

Well, somehow I missed the fact that Lord Chane beat Gozguy while I was on vacation. That gives us two more matches, assuming that all four of you are still around. This tourney has been going on for a while now.

Alneyan vs Lord Chane

and

Steal Dragon vs Gozguy

Tourney is almost over. Top spots have already been decided. If Georgig and Tesco would finish their game then everybody would be on their Last round games.

[Slynky]

I know that Lord Chane and Alneyan know they will be playing and, I assume, intend to see what comes of the match.

Hopefully, when it's all done, there will be a rankings list posted.

Hey, I have a little problem. I remember that Steal Dragon goes by something else on PBW but can't remember what it is. Does anyone remember what his name there is?
