1st Official DOM2 Tourney : Settings / Players and all you need to know !

[calmon]

on which server the games should run?

There should be an independent server (mosehansen?) for the duels. The 'serverplayer' could do some cheat technics useing the ftherlnd-file (like reveal magic sites, try the independent forces, etc.).

I think most of us have enough honor not to do that but the tourney is official and there are some prizes...

Hey Calmon : Yes, we know about that problem. I will discuss this problem with Shrapnel Games for sure !

Until than, stay tuned !

BTW, thanx for the info.

How's the challenge format? Something like: [i]Battlefield says: "You are player 1 and have to pick Atlantis against player 2 who is (insert other random name here) and plays Arcoscephale."?

Or do we bid on nations? Do we know opponent's nations before creating the pretender? "as defined" means standard settings (indep 3, standard richness, standard research, common events, graphs on, renaming disallowed)?

I think that's all I can think off I need to know.

Any chance I could still join your tourney Napoleon?

I think the nations are chosen by the user's preference, and in the event of a collision, a randomly selected person gets his first choice, the other picks a second choice.

As for "standard" settings, I've found that the usual MP-accepted settings are Indy-6, sites-50, HOF 15, standard richness and research, no graphs, renaming enabled (does anyone actually have a real reason to disable it? Why is this not just default by now?)
