CHESS:
A game long compared to that of our beloved Tactics Arena. I've always found these parodies to be a load of bogus. Therefore, I decided to make a Tactics Arena mini-game as close to chess as I could find.
PRESENTING: ARENA CHESS

HOW DO YOU PLAY?
It's simple, really. You and your opponent each have a set mimicking that of a chess setup (details forthcoming.) You then try to *check-mate* your opponent, or in this case, kill their cleric. You may not, however, stone your cleric or include 2 clerics.
You set your cleric middle of the back row and build your set accordingly:
ALL UNITS MUST BE IN THE BACK 3 ROWS
NO DRAGON TYRANT
STONE GOLEMS ARE FINE, BUT NO STONING YOUR CLERIC
UNITS MUST ALIGN IN 7 ADJACENT COLUMNS WITH THE MIDDLE COLUMN BEING THE ONE IN WHICH THE CLERIC IS POSITIONED
NO MORE THAN 1 CLERIC
GOLD DROPS ELIGIBLE! :)
YOU MUST HAVE 7 UNITS IN THE THIRD ROW IN ADJACENT COLUMS WITH THE MIDDLE COLUMN BEING THE MIDDLE COLUMN OF THE BOARD (THIS ALLOWS FLEXIBILITY OF PLACEMENT WITH 2 UNITS IN THE BOTTOM 3 ROWS)
HOW YOU WIN
KILL YOUR OPPONENTS CLERIC
KILL ALL MOBILE ATTACKING UNITS (ESSENTIALLY, ELIMINATING ANY UNIT THAT COULD KILL YOUR CLERIC
DRAWS OCCUR WHEN THE ATTACKING MOBILE UNITS OF BOTH SIDES ARE SIMULTANEOUSLY DESTROYED.
DRAWS WILL BE REPLAYED

Hatch: I am allowing gold drops unless you say otherwise, big guy.
Rule I left out, you must have 7 units in the 3rd row in adjacent columns. With your cleric in the back, middle, this gives you the flexibility of 2 units in or behind the 3rd row. These can be anywhere.
For the last setups, I didn't know what extra unit I should add.
This making more sense? :)
EDIT: Creativity is encouraged!

I just had a 3rd game with Ol' Time. The first 2 were relatively uneventful, with us both being noobs.
The 3rd game is where shit got heavy!
We traded muds. I furged up a storm. He took most all my attacking units and left me with a knight, a BR (which had penetrated and attacked his cleric) and a trapped scout (surbbbed in with 10 HP.) I had built up a good enough defense that my knight/BR combo in his grill was his main threat. In the end, he didnt think, forgot to realive my knight could attack a shrub and move right next to his cleric and i took unit. I won with 2 attacking units in play (scout shrubbed in) while he had 2 knights, a br, and both scouts.
Taught me one thing: never take your eyes off the prize. The cleric is the goal. Take it, you win. Wont even matter if you're down 4-5 units ^_^
good game, OD.

I'm expanding it to 32 sign-ups cause of the early fill-up. I think we'll get it.
Hatchet Klown
01-29-2009, 10:33 PM
Even if you don't get the full 32 and end at an akward number, you can give a bye or host a round robin round to get yourself to the normal number needed for the next round.

SIGNUPS CLOSED
Since we're over the 32 people, there will be a bye round for the bulk of you to start. Winners of the two following games move on to make the even 32.
Snowolf vs Maverik
ZADICO vs JesusCraig
These matches were determined randomly.

01-31-2009, 12:01 PM

01-31-2009, 12:06 PM
DD pushed for having the final 4 signups play, but that would still leave 2 people who signed up on time playing. So I just went with a random generator to determine 4 names from his list that needed to play for this round.
He's on your side, I'm the bad guy. Have a nice day. :p

I'm also GMT-4
10:00pm Thursday sound good? I may be a few minutes late, but it should be close to that time, no later than 10:15.
And don't worry, I don't think most people will be upset about "needing" to play this first round, it will give 2 of us one more games experience, and if we lose, we'd probably have lost first round anyway.

Also, everyone please subscribe to this thread. Just as a little reminder :P

I dunno what to do about this game with Sno anymore. He said he would try to be on on Monday, but apparently he couldnt make it because i didnt see him and after that, frankly, i kind of forgot about this, but im pretty sure he did as well seeing as i didnt get another PM from him other than his response.
I leave for Las Vegas in about 6 hours. So Sno, if you see this, ill be around until then. Hit me up with a PM and we'll play.

As for my game with Snowolf, i didnt see him today, nor did i see him during the week and after i didnt see him on Monday, we were never in contact again. I hate to leave this decision on you DD, but im leaving right now for the weekend and wont be back until Sunday evening.
If I move on to the next round, here is my "PM" to my opponent for next round so that hopefully something can be arranged for me when i come back.
My availability:
Monday: 8-9am, 3-6pm (possibly later if we can arrange something)
Tuesday: 10-5pm
Thursday: 1-5pm
Hope something in there will work for whomever i get next round. All times PST, GMT -8.
DOCTOR DEVICE

Aren't we all.
Mav or Zad or Sno or Jesus: forward me the PM/visitor message/whatever exchange between you and your partner.
Sno: I'm leaning towards giving Mav the default win as, to my knowledge, he has exhibited far more initiation.
Non-bye-rounders: patience is a virtue. I know you're all eager to get the bracket and get your games in, but I'm just as excited to start this. Hold your horses and I promise I'll do all I can to get this underway quickly.

Ok, here is the deal. I challenged the creed for our Chess game, he accepted, we got in game. 1 move before i kill his cleric which it was pretty obvious i was going to, he continued playing instead of saying gg, what made me think he did not realize after he lose his cleric he loses the game. I asked him and he told me he didnt even read the rules...
So i dont want to take this as a win. He had a valid set though... and he saw mine which is the biggest problem for me. If Doctor Device decides its better to replay the game, ill be happy to do it anyway.
Your call now.

Okay well it's good that we're both CST. That'll help. Tonight I won't have time for a game, unless it's after 11:00 PM or so. I'll be on after then for an hour or two.
I can do anything Saturday really, and some parts of Sunday. Every weekday is usually anywhere from 4:30-6:00 PM, then again at 8:30ish-10:00 PM.

I challenged the creed for our Chess game, he accepted, we got in game. 1 move before i kill his cleric which it was pretty obvious i was going to, he continued playing instead of saying gg, what made me think he did not realize after he lose his cleric he loses the game. I asked him and he told me he didnt even read the rules...
So i dont want to take this as a win. He had a valid set though... and he saw mine which is the biggest problem for me. If Doctor Device decides its better to replay the game, ill be happy to do it anyway.
Your call now.
What do you think?
Grant a rematch to a guy too apathetic to read the rules in a minigame tournament which he is participating in?
win: ragnarth.

Wow, just wow. I dont know if its because i am drunk right now ( id like to think so XD) but DD pwned me three consecutive times in the chess mode. I really appreciate the one who made the tourney plays like that his own tourney. Congrats XD.
I feel good i had like 2 different units to his set. One of them he said it was a great adition. This style should be considered as a new style in all tao tourneys. Its simply Fun as hell. And luck is almost never involved.

I believe this statement is very harsh. I hadn't read the rules in a week or so based on the fact of not needing to pay attention to this in that amount of time. All the same he did validly beat me, so good game Rag.

Ill simple dont like the arrogancy, that attitude is not what i would look at to play game, im not even going to reply that crap, ill post my times here and good luck with yourself, your alter ego and your arrogancy dude..:
GMT-6
Monday to Saturday:
6pm to 12 am
Sunday
Anytime after 3 pm is good.
I never got a PM or a visitor message or anything. I dont read every single thread every day. And yeah, it was so incredibly arrogant of me to say that, because you do each time, including now :rolleyes:. How about you get over yourself and realize its not everyone but its you who can't arrange a tournament game.
Instead of sending me a pm, you just wrote some post in the thread and then you expect to magically meet you online (our times aren't compatible by the way, so even If I was on the times I given you'd not meet me in game). Jesus christ...
Looks like our times aren't overlapping. Any chance you could play a game at your midnight? If its too late, then 11 PM your time sounds like the best bet.

Oh by the way, I was never DQ'ed in tournament, and im not planning to. Because I actually try to arrange a game instead of just whining about someone being "arrogant".

You gave no chance by only mentioning your playable times, just like "i dont care about you, but ill play at these times", notice that there is a huge differnce between our times zones, and of course your times would midnight/morning for me , obviously i cant make it. Thats arrogancy, try to talk and make a conversation to arrange the game before you assume wrong statements, there are pms and visitor messages, any option should be good, but since "you'll ignore any vm or lets play now" message, guess who the "slow" here.

DOCTOR DEVICE
02-09-2009, 03:56 PM
I'll give you guys till Saturday night. Thought I posted that, but forums must have been down or something. >_>
It's not like "Satuday 12:00Pm GMT-8!!!!!!" It's more like a, "get your games done by no later than saturday night or you're dqed". If you do them on saturday, you're good to go. If it happens to be at 12:01, fine.

mav and i had been some troubles to arrange a time... and since tomorrow is san valentine Day, i want an extention to Sunday night please..:)
hey bud my time zone is gmt -4 and i can play almost all day on weekends, and on week from 8 pm to 1 am.
Tell me when you can do it.
c ya.
Well, i already posted my schedule in the thread, but since i guess you skipped over that post of mine, ill re-post it for you
As for my game with Snowolf, i didnt see him today, nor did i see him during the week and after i didnt see him on Monday, we were never in contact again. I hate to leave this decision on you DD, but im leaving right now for the weekend and wont be back until Sunday evening.
If I move on to the next round, here is my "PM" to my opponent for next round so that hopefully something can be arranged for me when i come back.
My availability:
Monday: 8-9am, 3-6pm (possibly later if we can arrange something)
Tuesday: 10-5pm
Thursday: 1-5pm
Hope something in there will work for whomever i get next round. All times PST, GMT -8.
How about today (Monday) at 8:30pm your time?
i can't today... i will do it tomorrow at the same hour if you want.. but better 9pm...
I cant do it tomorrow. I have to write a paper. How about thursday around 9:30pm your time?
not sure... but i can do it today later... like 10 or 11 pm of my time, can you?
No.
give some times, give me some time to friday then.. earlier... between 5 to 8 pm..
I gave you my whole schedule already. I cant play on friday.
ok thursday 8 pm of my time is perfect.
Since you never answer me... tell me if you can play this Suanday...

Yea, it was well-played by ZAD. I was a few moves away from completely annihilating him, but i couldnt piece it together all the way. Spending the whole game on the defensive is tough and ZAD did a good job of threading his way in.
