Not in your wildest dreams.

Especially not with how the first round, which for everyone consisted of building two infantries and for some of us also moving a predeployed infantry, took four days.

So you'd say the game with three Olafs is moving at a glacial pace?

If that's the case, then is there anyone who would like to participate in a few exhibition rounds while this game finishes? I can set up a team battle, a broken CO game, and maybe a few gimmick games here and there.

I'd be down with that.

I'm up if you think a probably bad new player in a broken CO game would be a source of humour. :v:

Actually scratch that I don't have access to a computer at the moment. But it's a thought.

Alright. I'm going to have a discussion with a few friends of mine who are familiar with the ins and outs of Advance Wars, and see what kind of interesting exhibition matches we can come up with together. After that, I'll open registration again.

Everything should be up by day's end, assuming I don't get lazy or distracted. I'll try and at least make a few new games, and get as many people involved who are interested as possible.


Feel free to leave suggestions in the thread.

Sure, I'd be up for a team game or a broken CO match (no surprises who I'd pick for that :v:)

I'm still not sure what to do with the free avatar change I've won - I'm pretty happy with my current avatar. I could just put "Goon AWBW Tourney Winner 2016" underneath it or something. Unless Doctor Reynolds has a better use for it.

I have to admit, I was a bit happy when I crashed out of the tournament. I was not looking forward to having to edit an Olaf hat onto my current avatar.

It's the Final Countdown.
Alright, so for the exhibition match, the rules stay the same as they always do unless stated otherwise. The boot interval will be set down to 5 this time, as there haven't been any bugs with the AWBW system in quite a few months. The AET interval on all games shall also be set to 10.


When getting into any game, please do your best to select COs you haven't played as in the tournament. I won't enforce this as a rule, but I like variety and to see different playstyles from each player every time they go in. It makes it easier to commentate on as well.


For the time being, you may sign up to only one of these games. Choose wisely.

Through the series of unfortunate events simply known as this LP, I've been bitten by the AW bug all over again. So I hopped onto the IRC and simply posted this htere:

quote:

[03:17] <RoninOfDreams> The tournament thread has been hilarious. Thank you all (and pass this to folks not present if you would) for rekindling enjoyment in the AW series.

Still totally true. The unfortunate events that have followed have basically wound up conning me into playing AWBW for the first time in years. And I wholly blame Slur. Still remember my login, somehow, and it still works despite all the hiccups and data loss from the site being random over the years. That said! I am a total scrub, and am bound to make horrible decisions. If the team doesn't mind the occasional question fielded their way, however, I'll own up and throw my hat into the Boss map.

Given it is Paul.Power as the boss, however, its up to them.
