When to draw: gameID=103187
I am curious as to what others on Webdip think proper End of Game etiquette is. I have always thought that if a grand alliance succeeds in drawing up a stalemate line to stop one's solo (or if it is painfully clear that a line will be drawn), that was the proper finale to the game as no one can progress past. As an example, take a look at this game where a stalemate line has been drawn yet the one closest to a, now impossible, solo refuses to draw.

Time management:
24h phases. In the first three years of the game, you *have to save* builds to gain time. After 1903, you have to *ready all retreats* to speed up. Whoever picks Austria posts this rule in the Global press.

For your peak GR: check this URL, your rank must be above 132: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0Ar7_3gsXAPwtdDVwZEloT3QycWRJc2FvYklrc0Y1X3c&output=html)

My peak GR is 129.xxx, but I think the way you worded it is confusing and that's not what you are considering.
Draugnar (0 DX)
04 Dec 12 UTC
The bad thing about GR is it can be Ghost Ranking (relative to others) or Ghost Rating (an absolute score). I would assume you must be one of the top 132 players in the overall, not just have a peak rating of 132 or better.
Tom Bombadil (4023 D(G))
04 Dec 12 UTC
What redhouse wants to say is that you must have a higher rating than him. That way he can face against better rated players while excluding lower rated players so that he has the most to gain in terms of GR. Its a feeble attempt to create a game with the sole purpose of making his GR increase...

redhouse1938 (429 D)
05 Dec 12 UTC
By the way
What Tom said is mostly right, except for the last sentence. I create a high profile game mostly because the stronger the players become, the more interesting and complex the game becomes.
Maybe I'm wrong, but there's no guarantee a player's current GR could be below redhouse's, even if their peak GR was higher. So then there's no guarantee the game would automatically bump up redhouse's gr assuming he didn't get eliminated?
Is it me or is that link broken?
Draugnar (0 DX)
05 Dec 12 UTC
Stackelberg is correct. My peak GR is significantly higher than Redhouse, but my current GR is bellow him at the moment. So his ROI would be reduced, not improved, by playing me.

I think it's just a slow time of year for starting new games. October 2011 I was able to fill seven games for my anonymous tournament, but this last week I couldn't even fill four games for my Bendite Invitational. Maybe after the New Year things will pick up.

RIP Sir Patrick Moore a brilliant astronomer and presenter
He presented a monthly astronomy program on the BBC called "The Sky At Night" from it's first episode in 1957. It was the longest running TV series with the same presenter and in all that time he only missed one episode.

"Patrick is irreplaceable. There will never be another Patrick Moore. But we were lucky enough to get one." - Dr Brian May.
