Hi! After looking at the scores, judges decided to give the victory to Ezekiel. The scores were quite tight but he led most and had a decisive lead in military.
Please update the class/race in the report and prepare for round 2. I'm posting in your respective game blogs to launch your round 2 games.

Good luck in the rest of the tournament!

Ok, so here are the instructions:
1/ AFTER the deadline, the strategic turn is played until the last player in the turn order
2/ that player plays his turn, saves & quits, copy the save game to a backup folder
3/ that player re-enters the game and surrenders, then takes screenshots of all the scores (general, domain, research, military, happiness) . He does NOT end the turn. Instead he quits the game without ending the turn.
4/ he sends the screenshots to judges (Marcuspers, Jonny Thunder and me)
5/ judges check the scores and take a decision

So no revert involved (except after, if you want to still continue the game for fun).

And sorry for not anticipating, time flies, I thought your game still had a few days before the deadline...

Is there still time for another turn? I am in the last slot so need to surrender after my moves otherwise. How do we play on afterwards? Does Leon need NOT to take his turn, and then I, as host revert the turn?!?

Admin report to start round 2. You have about 6 days left to finish the game.

Yes, it's possible to finish the game outside the tournament with a revert. I can explain when the time comes.

Hi. Unfortunately we did not get much further. I don't think a few more days will help us.
Not sure how the winner is going to be determined exactly, but I suspect the winner will be Ezekiel, with him being the more experienced player. I would like to know if it is possible to continue the game after the winner has been determined. If so, I would like to finish the game regardless of the rest of the tournament.

Hi! What turn did you reach? Exceptionally, as it's complicated to move the end of the round for everyone (as I want it to coincide with the release of Planetfall on 6 August), your match - and your match alone - receives +1 week to try to be completed, to take into account the holidays season and the fact that Ezekiel was away for 3 weeks.
I hope that'll move you closer to the end of the match.
So your deadline is 2019-08-13 10:22 PM (GMT+3 if I'm not mistaken).

Published on Mon, 29 Jul 2019 20:11:03 +0200

Yeah, we got off to a late start. I don't think we're gonna finish on time. Maybe we can pick a day this week (not wednesday) where we can back and forth a few turns to speed things up. I am generally able to manage my time to make that possible.

Hi! There are only 9 days left to complete the game, please prioritize this tournament game compared to others (and for Ezekiel, the 2vs2 is probably a higher priority before this one).
You might have a small time extension due to the summer holidays but not sure yet.

We are on turn 17-18.  Having holidays for the next 3 weeks (minus 2-3 days) - will take turns occasionally but not as often as usually (had some days with multiple turns). Cheers.

@leon: yes should be 1.28 Tournament Edition, right?
And yes, upload sometimes fails but it doesn't cause reload notification.

Round 1 : 2019 PBEM Duel Tournament #1
Please click here to read the rules.

In order to avoid advantaging one team or the other, for each match, the team who will host the match was randomly selected.
The first team in the "turn order" above (who is also the team on top in the tree here) must host the game.


Any of the players in the team can host.

When players do not show up for their match, the Tournament Judges have the right to change the match!

Right!
Game hangs on PBEM upload.

It may be because I am at my inlaws' house where the connection is not as good, still I did not expect sending gamefiles like this would be too much.

I remember now why I am not a big fan of multiplay...

So what now?

Edit: Oh crap, I didn't realize I could just try again. It worked the second time around, so I guess there will be a reload notification.

Ok thanks Hili!
I am still mourning for my turn 1 warhall that I got in the cancelled game ... :'(
By the way, I'm running the pbem mod 1.28, as per the description in the tournament rules (for round 1 only?), correct?

You need to wait for the greenlight of judges before starting any tournament matches, Ezekiel knows that very well so you shouldn't have started.

You may not care about Omen of the Doves in theory but not starting at war causes a number of issues, including unbalancing alignment strategies (as declaring war gives evil alignment) so it is necessary to re-host if you didn't start at war.
And if Ezekiel did start on slot #2, it means all his screenshots were fake?

Published on Fri, 28 Jun 2019 15:22:09 +0200

Ah man, really? I already finished turn 3 and my leader is still alive!
I'm sure Ezekiel is in the second slot, because I started the match.
Not sure about teams cause I haven't checked diplomacy.
Doesn't that mean that you know your opponent's class/race from the get go?
I don't care about omen of the dove really.

Hi! 2 issues with the settings:
1/ Ezekiel needs to be in slot #2 (see rules)
2/ You are not starting as teams which means you do not start at war.

Issue #2 is major as if there is an Omen of the Dove when you want to engage, you won't and that will cause a lot of problems.

So please rehost.
Also, please take screenshots in windowed mode so that we can see the timestamp.

Package of the screenshots zipped. The password is "urschleim" - already provided that to Leon.

Hi! leon, please contact Ezekiel through all possible means to speed up the hosting and starting...

Hi! Yes, with the 2 mods.

@Ezekiel: please host the game and post screenshots. I have both players' class/race.

Published on Wed, 19 Jun 2019 01:26:52 +0200

OK, I'm ready!
I suppose we start the game with only the 2 required mods enabled.?
