Although I'm not doing so well in the second stage, I must say I've enjoyed this tournament immensely and the level of play has been excellent. It gave me the chance to learn from the best. I would like to thank everyone taking part in the tournament and special thanks to Geofram for taking the time to run it! I hope you will have the energy to organize another one next year!

It's been a very fun tournament. Great job, Geofram!

Thank you. I'm sorry you finished your games so early and have to wait for the others. =P

Maybe institute a year limit next year. It has been fun, no worries.

Bump!

Yeah, it's funny. I think I was the first to complete all of my games in leg 1, and I was one of the first, if not the first, to complete leg 2.

I am still getting left off these lists :-(

Thanks, JesusPetry! I enjoyed the game a lot, both the play and the result ;)

I thought prolonging the game wouldn't hurt cosidering other matches were still running and 4-way was unacceptable given my shitty previous leg 2 performance. Nevertheless, I would've drawn in 1914 since that was the year where it would be clear the opposition was rock solid but luckily, Italy pulled the trigger in 1913 so there was still something to play for. I made stupid mistakes along the way (like no orders in Fall 14 and convoy misorders) but perhaps they paid off in the end IF they helped to convince Russia to give up the hope of drawing. Crucial was Spring 16 when Italy didn't followed to Piedmont and Fall 16 when Spain and Wes Med weren't Turko-Russian at once, that would've made the situation there a guesswork, with me making a mistake resulting in a draw.

Also, gameID=68342 finished in a 4-way. Congratz The Czech, AlexNesta, Trooth and Ursa. Now it's clear what I meant by my shitty perfromance ;)

Come on, if you're going to make such a detailed list, at least include all of the players. It's insulting to consider anyone irrelevant.

I just added the points and those who finished all 3 to the existing list but you're right, at this point, the list should include everyone. I'll fix it ASAP.

It's not going to be much more I fear. Got lucky to get into that draw :)

Congrats for the win ulytau, really deserved. I make so many mistakes in this game that I need to apologize specially with Troo and Alex.
On my behalf I can say I know I need at least a 3-way to advance in the tournamento, so I did a try and if I have moved to Pie in the right moment it could have ended in a 3-way.

Sorry about not mentioning all the players. I just wanted to keep it short.

Ursa, that was well played. You did exactly what i feared you would do and turn inland. I knew if england didnt take you out earlier, you would have a great shot because we couldnt afford to let Austria continue to roll. I would like to thank the czech for showing mercy and accepting the draw before england eliminated me.
