Re: Tournaments: even-ish first turns in 1v1 "Best Of X"

Could this not draw even more attention away from community-run tournaments, as people start to focus mainly on autotournaments to reduce the luck factor?

I'm not sure if I said this earlier in the thread but I'd be happy for this to be applied to all tournaments, not just autotournaments.

Re: Autotournaments: even-ish first turns in 1v1 "Best Of X"

Right.

So how about fixing things so dices go evenly too? Haven't you been in games where you got all the good dice; and in other games where the opponent got all the good dice? Weren't any of those tournament games?

Oh. Wait. There are probably still some among us that believe that skill alone ...

Re: Total number of missed turns

I believe this game has more missed turns than any other on CC... its a guess, but a semi-educated one.

to be honest, i wouldnt have wanted anyone bumped from the game because of it...but on the other hand, it would help end some of the really long games

Re: undo "end attack"

The way I've seen this done elsewhere is to replace the "End Assaults" button with a "go to Reinforcements" button and then on the reinforcements pane have a "Back to Assaults" button which disappears/ghosts when the first reinforcement is made.

Re: Q about taking a lot of 1's

Look guys I'm not trying to be an asshole but this rough estimate shit is donkey business. If we are analyzing this properly it's simply +.66 on each extra attacker
4v1s = .66 kill on average
5v1s = 1.33
6v1s = 2
7v1s = 2.66
It's not rocket science. If you want to add in 3v1s and 2v1s to

Re: Replace join order in tie-breaker system

the whole tiebreaker system could use a revamp. I don't really like "winning in the least number of rounds" either when people are playing on different maps.

A win on hive takes 20 more turns than doodle. Does it devalue the win because you won on a harder map? I don't think so.

Maybe the OP should be updated to indicate that this should just be for tournaments. If it's not, it adds a lot of complexity to the start a game page.
