Hi Every1,

Have made slight amendment to tourney structure in round1, lessening the available sign-ups & the deadline approaches & have had a few pull out.

Am still looking for 2more players to enter tourney & we can get the hunt under way for the Pink Panther jewel, plse give it a try as this is my 1st time hosting a tourney & would like it to be success!

[NotNowKato]

Thanks every1 for your support in entering my 1st tourney, round1 games have been posted, have fun & enjoy in the Search for the Pink Panther jewel!

Hi Every1,

Just a quick update regarding the tourney structure. in Game 5886445 a little discussion has been going on regarding the 'No Spoils' status of round1 games & the fact that this could make the games last an awful long time & should this happen, how would this affect the players motivation to hold their interest & competitive edge in reaching the ultimate goal of any tourney - the Prize! - the Tourney Trophy!
As a host my patience can hold out a while & fortunately for me in round1 i only have to wait for the 1st elimination in each game to happen b4 i can continue to round2.
In round2, the setting again have been put with 'No Spoils', with the 1st 2 eliminations in each group going out leaving the 3rd elimination to go into a playoff Assasin game. This process could as suggested take some time, possible leaving players to become dis-interested & maybe even drop out, which would i certainly not want to happen.
So with this in mind i propose to change the spoils in round2 to 'Flat Rate' & the spoils in the playoff games to 'Escalating'.

B4 i do this however, i would welcome any feedback from those either in the tourney or any1else who may be browsing the tourney thread to offer their input. This has been my 1st tourney as host & therefore am learning all the time & welcome all feedback & critisism good & bad - it will only enhace my experience on CC.

Hi All,

Just to give you an update on the 1st round eliminations, it seems we have our 1st casualty, peanutsdad just couldn't get himself into the game, boxed in on all sides & been taken out by all around him, finally jug68 put him out of his misery .

The remaining games appear to progressing steadily & somewhat evenly matched, although in group4, 2players are holding on by a thread, but being a terminator game with points to be had, strategically they may survive for a while & even build enough of a stack to ward off any attackers.

So, again thanks for your participation in my 1st tourney.

Our 2nd elimination comes in group4 Ghost_Rider couldnt find a way to stay in the game & was finally picked off.

[NotNowKato]

The 3rd & 4th eliminations came in Groups5 & 2, being SnoopsWoodstock & Soldier4Christ, respectively.

Only 1elimination to go, which is in Group3, which seems to be holding steady for now.

Congrats to jug68 , from Group1, who has overcome his rivals to win the group in style, battling it out with mongbane in the final rounds. Both scored kill points in their terminator game.

Last elimination came in group3, Green Baize was nowhere to be seen, kept such a low profile, he was automatically eliminated

We have now eliminated the initial 5 players from round1 & can now progress onto round2, where the battle is over Land&Sea. Just to remind that the 1st 2eliminated will drop out of tourney, with the 3rd elimination going into a playoff Assassin game (dont get assassinated & you'll go through to the Hunt round1).

Good Luck All, will post games in next few days.

Well played Frito, see you next round in the Hunt for the Pink Panther

[NotNowKato]

Just a quick update.

Only 1 more elimination & 1 playoff place left to be decided, both in Group 2 Game 6205234.

The 4 players who are in the Assassin playoff game are jlboronat - DennyChen - simeon smythe - alcazar.

The Hunt for the Pink Panther will soon be under way at The Citadel.

[NotNowKato]

We finally have completed the Prelim Round 2. The final player into the p/off elimination game is riodeishere, game has been set up & invites sent, good luck to the 5 players in this Assassin p/off. Loser will be eliminated & the rest will progress onto the Citadel, where the Hunt for the Pink Panther will continue! Have fun all!

[NotNowKato]

Update. It would seem that jlboronat has gone awol & therefore will forfeit his chance continue in the tourney, meaning that the playoff elimination will now not take place. Instead we will move straight onto the next round with the players we have, The Citadel will host the 1st round of the Hunt for the Pink Panther Jewel. Good luck every1

[NotNowKato]

Game 6665919 & Game 6665915 has come to a crashing end, with Little Witt & Stretch20 into the p/off eliminator.
