Carrot Cup 2017!

[duneix]

Well our game with Daniel is almost over, I guess I will surrender in the next few turns.

Good news is that I'm controlling everything from the south east to the Nord west, including the middle of the map and the south west.. Bad news is that there is no tcs there

[tamtam12345]

The score is currently 942/698 at the start of Dan301002's 7th turn.

Which type of map do you play? Explored or reveal?

Explored with No techs and Few units at 30x30 River Loop. But I think I may be able to guess what Dan is doing in his corner.
Btw it should have been 6th turn in the last message, playing now in the other order than with duneix is messing with my head and my sheets.

OK I surrendered, it made no sense to play this game. It was much too unbalanced, that's a pity

I suggest you have a rematch with Daniel with that kind of unbalanced match.

[DoomCarrot]

Wow that was fast lol. Confirmation from Daniel?

Well that's how map looked like..
He's got his 8 tcs from the very beginning on on the north east while I have to travel everywhere to get only 6 tcs..

I don't remember exactly but after turn 8/9, Daniel already had all his tcs (more than 1000 points)

[DoomCarrot]

Ah, very well, I shall update the brackets then

[Stratego (dev)]

It was unbalanced, but it was challenging to crush him, deflected almost any attack of mine
when i started to bombard him with trebuchets, that was a maybe the turnpoint.

[DoomCarrot]

Yeah, trebuchets will end an unbalanced game pretty quick lol

[DoomCarrot]

Brackets are updated! Tamtam and Daniel are now matched to determine the winner of the undefeated bracket!

P.S. COOLguy, please respond how long you will be AFK, or send PM for our game. We are not holding anyone up (yet), but if we begin to, I will have to issue the 72 hour limit before automatic forfeit...

[Stratego (dev)]

Brackets are updated!

no, we are replaying it

[Detros]

Brackets are updated!

no, we are replaying it

On which occasion is a match available to be replayed, if ever?

[Stratego (dev)]

oh sorry, it is DoomCarrot to say if it is available in this tournament.
i saw a suggestion above for replaying it and it is ok for me, but lets DoomCarrot say if it is available.

[DoomCarrot]

Rematch? Well this game isn't holding up the tournament, and as long as both players want to rematch, I see no reason to not allow it. I will change back the brackets later

[Detros]

Because of the layout of this River Loop map our match starts looking like some MOBA map, with three lanes and opposing forces at the corners. Dan has managed to get to the central TC first but I have captured it this turn. His units are close by though and loses are slowly raising on both sides. I currently have 11 of 18 TCs but the distance to front line is quite long for my reinforcements. I am thus working on moving factories forward while Dan keeps on fortifying.

[Sunrise Samurai]

Hey, what does this carrot cup look like? Surely you have an image for the trophy to be given to the winner, don't you?

[DoomCarrot]

I suppose I could make an image for the carrot cup lol, if people wanted to put it in their signatures or something

[Sunrise Samurai]

Make an image. If it's good, the winner can use it in their signature.

[patroid]

Hi,
I made 1st 2nd and 3rd prize image. Doom does a second big.one for the winner

[DoomCarrot]

Lol, those don't really look like carrots I don't think... No offense

[Stratego (dev)]

but they are! just the green parts can be green imho.

[DoomCarrot]

Big trophy for first place? I imagined it a bit more carroty, and a bit more of a cup

[Sunrise Samurai]

Nice. I assume the winner will have permission to use it in a signature? And edit that into​ the original post, for ease of finding later, before it's buried under more posts.

[Detros]

The score is currently 2156/1166 at the start of Dan301002's 18th turn.
There is no close range combat at the border at this moment once Dan's last knight fell at the start of this turn.

[DoomCarrot]

Wow, Dan is in big trouble.

[Dan301002]

Wow, Dan is in big trouble.

I don't build that much, that is a problem.

[Detros]

Because you are just building that big castle up there in the corner.

[Detros]

MY units have managed to capture one of Dan's corner TCs. It was bit hard to defend it when there is a mountain range between it and the rest of his base.
The score is currently 2448/1174 at the start of Dan301002's 20th turn so slightly over 2:1.

Dan, if you can kill those intruders quick enough or if you have something big cooking soon we can still continue.
It would be bit sad to not to get to those other things which are currently on the way, otherwise.
