I want to take part in the tournament. Who the hell did think out such rules???

I think I have to buy a copy of MA and register...

The second rule was not my idea. I've thought that only generals will not take part. I could place you in reserve list.

DryFire · **Posted:** Fri Dec 26, 2003 4:58 pm

I'm not sure wether i should try or not.

If you meant the second rule, you can take part in this tournament.

not that, it's just that I'd get my ass kicked.

VaNO · **Posted:** Sat Dec 27, 2003 8:14 am

artmax, you may not participate this tournament as one of developers!

Ladies and Gentlemen.
This tournament is specially for the new players!

I.e. nither the developers (Vadim, Tiger, Victor, etc.) are NOT taking part.
So, the participants will be fighting against more or less equal opponents.

hey Dryfire complaining how bad you play wont make you play better

Pengu · **Posted:** Sat Dec 27, 2003 6:00 pm

Awesome, I'm in !

guess I have another 2 weeks now to try and raise my poor skills

Mrakobes · **Posted:** Mon Dec 29, 2003 1:50 pm

hmm seems like people registering for tournament very slowly
that's odd considering like 150 registered users in online list
(50 of which were active last week)
maybe they do not know about tournament? is there way to notify registered users via email maybe?

Coffeedragon · **Posted:** Mon Dec 29, 2003 3:18 pm

On the contrary: I am surprised that 9 have already registered!

People are not that self-confident, yet.

I predict about 30 participants in all.

If that turns out right, it would make sense to have only 4 groups, but let the first TWO in each group advance.

The advantage being that you are not immediately screwed if you happen to be in the same group as Morton HQ.

Maelstrom · **Posted:** Mon Dec 29, 2003 4:37 pm

Did the MA staff send out an email to their list for this tournament? Or has it just been in the forums? I know I for one have never really kept up with the forums with any game as much as I have for this one, so I'm sure there are people that could be interested in it that haven't found out because they don't keep up with the forums. We've only got another week for three times as many as have signed up so far to join in...

I disagree with your Math on this.

We have two weeks, and we will be fine, if two times as many as have signed up so far join in...

Boomer · **Posted:** Mon Dec 29, 2003 7:10 pm

Whee ... I'm in.

sgtshaggy · **Posted:** Tue Dec 30, 2003 3:37 pm

Well, whoever gets to go against me will have an easy win.

Good luck to all!

I'm with you. I don't think people have noticed that there's a tournement. Might be a good idea to pass the word via comments in your games to those you haven't registered yet.

No reason for anyone not to play. What's the worst that can happen?

They could be put against you in the first round of the tournament

Youґre practically reading my thoughts, Maelstrom. Thatґs why I cunningly

suggested to let the first TWO in each group advance.
