The World Dominator Tournament

25 days? That is a lot. Assuming everything is done sooner then we start next round sooner?

I think the idea is that games finish a few days before the month ends, then the organizer has those few days to update things and receive attacking orders and creates games. I think that makes it 12 rounds in the tournament.

Otherwise, it won't finish exactly in a year.

But still, 25 days is a lot with increasing cards. Games will get over in a week, max 2.

Yes, it is plenty of days, but there will be an occasional 3 player stalemate.....and players will get annoyed if the game will be a draw. It is a fine balance between the two. Keep in mind, both phases are [b]up to[/b] 48 hours and 25 days. So if all the games are completed by then, we move on to the next round.

[quote=periwinkle][quote=Xixi2] Question: Is there a way to defend against someone automatically winning with a +3 ? [/quote] no there isn't. [quote=Xixi2]Or the first person with 4 attacking orders can take any territory without another player with a +2 next to it willing to spend both ? Can I use some attacking orders to defend my own territory for example ?[/quote] you need 3+ attacking orders from the 2nd highest bidder to automatically conquer that tert. [/quote] Still one thing is not clear to me. This rule also applies if one attacks from 3 sides a territory that nobody else has attacked? I mean, if the only 'bidder' it's me, then with 3 attacking orders I win the territory directly, right?

There are two cases where you win the territory automatically: 1. Attacking a neutral territory when there are no other attackers 2. When you have 3 more attacking orders/bids compared to the 2nd highest bidder. e.g. if you decide to attack Tor with 3 attacking orders and there is only a defender (player B ) you will automatically conquer that territory without a game and avoid a 1v1 game. (AvB ) eg. if you decide to attack Tor with 4 attacking orders and there is a defender (player B ), and 1 other attacking order from another player (player C), you will also avoid a 1v1v1 game (AvBvC) and conquer that territory automatically because you have 3 more attacking orders than 1 attacking order from player C the attacking orders can come from one territory or 4 territories...doesn't matter. From the Rules: [quote]Multiple attacks can be ordered out of one territory. If you decided to use 3 or more attacks on 1 territory compared to the other players, you automatically conquer that territory without a battle/game.[/quote]

So if you lose the defense on your territory and don't take anything, are you out of the tournament?

[quote=FightingDucks]So if you lose the defense on your territory and don't take anything, are you out of the tournament?[/quote] Yes, that is correct.

I'll donate 1,000 battle tokens to whoever knocks out Robbit

[quote=FightingDucks]I'll donate 1,000 battle tokens to whoever knocks out Robbit[/quote] hahaha....love it! i have a funny feeling this is going to be quite the interesting tournament!

They pulled a very borderline m/s to eliminate me, so I just want them to lose

[quote=FightingDucks]I'll donate 1,000 battle tokens to whoever knocks out Robbit[/quote] What if it takes multiple to knock them out? Like they have two territories, someone beats them on 1, another on 2?
