Bishop's Game List

@maafi = You're such a funny Tiger! :roll: Well it will be similar style of this one. They mostly are normal games, not 9p Caribbean, not Sametime-Fog-Unlimited-Capitals all in one, just standard things. Really I am not sure to keep 9p capitals becuase they are pretty extreme games! But then it's funny, why not? In any case map variety will be wider from very small to very big, so yes there will be few weird games with 9p in little space or 3p in quite large battlefield.

I have idea to start the 40 games list soon. I can reveal it will begin with World Reduced and it will end with World Expanded. But my intention is to play few games per time, so possibly it will take a whole year. Before starting that I want to test a bit more Capitals with small amount of players (3 and 5) and large amount of territories (10 to 17). So here is a list of 8 games: [quote][i]5p Caps[/i] 5p x 10t -- Hawaii Dual 5p x 13t -- Med. States 5p x 14t -- Africa 1890 5p x 15t -- Baltic Sea [i]3p Caps[/i] 3p x 13t -- Brazil 3p x 14t -- Solar System 3p x 16t -- Europe 3p x 17t -- Hawaii Dual[/quote] [b]The password is G8Y30360[/b] Everybody reading this (or invited by me) is welcome to join First two games are on: 5p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=600255]Hawaii Dual[/url] 3p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=600256]Brazil[/url]

Not that I want to play but, why 1728? :P

Ehm... well, I like you asking that, Psymon... It has something to do with our site name! Should I let you solve the riddle by yourself?

I'll follow you into whatever battle you lead me Bishop :)

@Psymon, I'm a lover of the base twelve numeric system -- or "dozenal system" if you want -- and 1728 is just twelve at third, it's written "1000" in our base. Personally I call it "one mole" or normally "great gross" or "cubic dozen". Well okay this is off-topic... I've just started 2 new games: 5p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=601928]Med. States[/url] 3p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=601929]Solar System[/url] (same password) @maafi, come kitty, come to me! ;D I give you your colour...

[size=11]For example I decided to raise a bit the point limit: [i]one mole[/i] didn't seem enough, so now is [i]one mole and a third[/i] for the new games ("1400" in base twelve or 2304 in base ten). You see what a round number? Base twelve is more practice when you divide a round number by 3 or 4 -- that usually is much more common than dividing by 5! For comparison, if I wanted one thousand and a third in base ten, I would have got a periodic number like 1333.3333... You cannot even write it![/size] So now, 2 games are in progress but 2 are still waiting for players to join: 5p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=600255]Hawaii Dual[/url] = in progress 3p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=600256]Brazil[/url] = in progress 5p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=601928]Med.

Well, we already have a winner! Congrats slackbatter... He got lucky really! :P So now I think it's time to start 2 new games in the list, just 2 continental maps: Africa and Europe. 5p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=600255]Hawaii Dual[/url] = [i]in progress[/i] 3p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=600256]Brazil[/url] = slackbatter 5p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=601928]Med.

Last 2 games, very large fields: 5p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=605689]Baltic Sea[/url] 3p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=605690]Hawaii Dual[/url] (same password)

I'm up for Baltic but as I want to retain my 100% winning record on Hawaii Dual, I'll never play it again.

Hey guys...like these games u put on Bishop,tryed to join the Baltic cap.but I don't have the point requirement to join atm..if u have more with less restrictions.. I'd be happy to join in :) only have room for one more game till I get my premium again( soon) send pm if you have something .I have 1951 points.

oh well of course, first games where only 1728 points required, now the last are 3400. at the next serie i will probably keep point restricion lower,

Well hopefully my points are higher soon :) have good chance so long as I don't get cornered by a tiger :) ;)

I'm enjoying the format. I think large territories capitals is a good training for some possible endgames in "normal" capital games. Congrats Maafi for your Hawaiian win. Unfortunately most of games, even if well played, they are ending with failing shots, but this is just a coincidence... Or maybe it's my energy that has been negative recently! I have lost a quantity of games (and points) that I could not even imagine! :S I think Europe is the limit size for 3 players. So I'm going to remove the largest 3p game and change it with a normal sized 3p Cap's in Ancient Realm map. Hammer, I restore the initial rating limit of 1728 so that you also can join if you want. 5p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=600255]Hawaii Dual[/url] = maafi 3p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=600256]Brazil[/url] = slackbatter 5p Cap [url=http://dominating12.com/?cmd=game&sec=play&id=601928]Med.

Most of games in the list are finished or finishing. I will show the results with all winners soon. I liked the effect of playing Capitals on large territory maps because strategies are a bit different from usual. Now before starting the big list of 40 games I would like to do another small experiment, just a mini-list of 4 games. This is Domination on large territory maps (13 starting territories per player). I see many playing Domination with increasing cards, but personally I'm a bit scared by the outcome, I still prefer to put a cap on the turn-ins. So here are the games I propose: 5p Dom (cpd@15) [url=https://dominating12.com/game/609449]Med. States[/url] = [u]waiting for players[/u] 6p Dom (cpd@20) [url=https://dominating12.com/game/609450]Italia[/url] = [u]waiting for players[/u] 7p Dom (cpd@25) [url=https://dominating12.com/game/609451]W. Expanded[/url] = [u]waiting for players[/u] 8p Dom (cpd@30) [url=https://dominating12.com/game/609452]Texas[/url] = [u]waiting for players[/u] No password required.
