Modern Gunboat July GB Rank 175-275 98%+RR

#1 Post by Doug7878 » Fri Jul 12, 2019 4:53 pm

If you (1) are July2019 Gunboat Ranked 175-275, (2) have an RR of 98% or more, and (3) have completed 15 gunboat games on the site...

I'm inviting you to join a Modern Gunboat. It will be semi-anon (anon but you know who the 10 players are), 24 hour phases, DSS, Hidden Draw Votes, 1 excused missed-turn, 30D to join.

I believe that the players who meet the above criteria are as follows:
177 Aereaux 199 pi3 236 Kingdroid
179 JMB22 205 mhsmith0 243 kovacsz1
180 Hauta 220 Utom 246 Major Mistake
187 Randomizer 229 ksako8 254 dannysparkes
189 wise_man 232 zerosignal 268 DaddyO
192 goldfinger0303 234 ThatCrazyGuy 270 Juanbo
198 Feanor 235 vixol 272 Hosengott
...and yours truly lagging behind the pack - 274 Doug7878

If you are interested, either respond to this post or PM me.

FYI, the RR requirements now are much different than the old system. A 98% requirement means you've basically never missed a phase, which is super unlikely.

98% is indeed a bit ambitious. I'd advise 70 or 80%. That's people who have practically never missed a phase.

Bump...

So far, we have 3 invited players who have agreed to play a Modern Gunboat, plus 3 others who may be interested in a Classic game but not Modern. If we don't get 10 for Modern, we'll look at doing a Classic game instead.

If you have received a PM from me, please let me know if you are interested.

Thanks,
Doug

@Chaqa and @Claesar -

Out of 101 players with Gunboat Rankings of 175-275 inclusive, only 22 meet the 98% RR and 15 game minimum requirements. We'll see how many respond.

I will say that I find it very interesting playing with others of similar Gunboat rank. Good players but no Super-Killers, no Noobs and no NMRs in the first game I tried. A lot of fun.

...
But how many of them are currently playing at least one game?

Modern Classic July GB Rank 175-275 98%+RR

#8 Post by Doug7878 » Sat Jul 13, 2019 6:32 pm

Due to only a few folks interested in a Modern Gunboat, we are changing it to Classic - same setup - semi-anon (anon but you know who is playing), DSS, HDV,30D, 1 excused missed turn

@Chaqa - Of the 22 who have the 98% RR, 16 have visited the site in the last day or so. Not enough interest in Modern it seems, but maybe we can get 7 for a Classic Gunboat.

I'll be out then. Modern sounded fun, but I don't want to do just a regular game.

bump...

We have 5 for a Classic game right now - they are (followed by their July2019 Gunboat GR Rank:
Randomizer (187)
Utom (220)
Kingdroid (236)
Hosengott (272)
Doug7878 (274)

So unless goldfinger0303 changes his mind and decides to play (we have a seat for him), we still need 2 more. I've PM'd all of you. "Come on down" ("The Price is Right" for you older folks).
