I would have won some, had I not DEFCON-suicided myself by mistake.  :(

So, which rules do we use for this tourney?

- +2 Influence for US at start?
- Chinese Civil War?
- Standard deck only?
- Two games per opponent in the Robin round, once playing each side?

Default rules will be (for Pool Play):

+2 US Influence
No Chinese Civil War
Include Optional Cards

For Pool play, this will be default. Once we have match ups, you can agree to adjust those on mutual agreement of both players.

For single elim round, we will bid influence.

I am thinking about doing pool play something like this.

Divide everyone into pools of 3 (4 pools). Play each other person in your pool once as each side. That will be 4 games for each player per pool.

The winner of each pool gets into the single elim tournament round, plus the next two highest point total from all pools (6 players in).

Those 6 players play off against each other for three spots in the finals of four.

The last 6 players each play against each other, and of the three winners, the highest total points gets the fourth spot in the finals.

Yeah. It works across platforms though, so you can use iPads as well.

OK, keeping a roster in the first post. Check it and make sure I have you listed if you are interested in playing...

I suggest the two games will be run parallel between two players. So we start two games at the same time, as each side.

LOL, mkiefte is a friend of mine and Habs who I asked to join and play with us.

Be nice! At least as nice as Languish can be. Which, I suppose, isn't all that nice...
