    PS3 tournament

    OK lets get somthing started

    1. This tournament will be conducted in a round robin format. Each player will play two games against each other player in this group for a total of 14 qualifying games. A win is worth 1 point. A loss is worth 0 points. After all qualifying games have been completed, the top two point leaders will advance to the finals. A best of 5 series will determine the winner of this group.

    Any round robin tie will be broken based upon the H2H records against one another. In the event of a 1-1 split, another game will be played to determine the winner. In the event of a 3+ way tie for the 2nd qualifying spot, one FFA match will decide who advances. In the event of a 3+ way tie for the top qualifying spot, a FFA game will decide the top seed. Another game (FFA or H2H) with the remaining players (not the first FFA winner) will decide the 2nd seed.

    2. No power or semi-power civs may be used (Americans, Arabs, Aztecs, Chinese, Zulu). The following is a list of the eleven allowed civilizations: Spain, Egyptians, English, Germans, Greeks, Indians, Japanese, Mongols, French, Romans, and Russians. You can play any of these civs but not the same civ twice agaisnt the same opponent in the round robin.

    3. No Adar.

    4. No democracy glitching. All peace requests must be accepted. All Great Wall requests must be accepted ONLY IF the player with the Great Wall has not attacked that turn. If the player with the GW attacks, he must wait until the following turn to send peace. Please play nice guys.

    5. No pause glitching.

    6. Players alternate hosts.

    7. There is no set schedule on who to play. Please organize your games on this thread or through chatroom. Please try to complete all games in a reasonable time frame.

    8. Rules are subject to modification up to when the first match has started.

    9. oxford bombers allowed.

    Late signups still possible -but game on.

    Have we even got 6 'active' ps3 forum members? Gone are the days when we had 16 players playing in 2 league groups.

    Well I will play. I have not had that much play in a while so will be rusty. Also if you are Southbeach (tag) something and played me last night Im sorry. I went random on civ and got zulu. suffice to say it was no fun for you. But I have started to play random all the time now.

    I suggest we do home and away games vs each opponent.
    I suggest we have two civs and must alternate in the home and away or 3 civs must play each at least 3 times in RR and no repeats against same opponent. (that creates some variability in the games)

    Ive updated the rules in the multipleyer forum with some of this and with hte templte from the xbox games. but allowing oxford and as above

    Its still the old one. It works at times. I think it may be the civ disk in all fairness (maybe over used). Thats 2 games that I have had now. So maybe I need to buy another copy.

    Played a game in the chat room vs Kauti (? or something). Really good game. Thats why I play civ. Close all the way. He had to leave before the end, which was a shame but I think I would have lost in the end, but would have been a damn good fight. He didnt get oxford until 1,600 ad or something.

    Not a lot of activity 'round here it seems...

    And my exams are coming up next week, but due to the amount of things to study (started with philosophy and such) it might be impossible for me to play...

    But should I manage to sneak to my ps3 during the european nights and happen to stumble upon some people, I'll be sure to crush y'all and get the title

    Scottie did this ever take off? There seems to be a few people knocking around in the chatroom these days but not seen you for a while. Mario n Dezzi are always there. IF you get this up and running then let me know. My 2 civs will be india and Japan obviously :-)

    Are you still recruiting for this ?
    I would be interested, although I have not played in a very long time, so I'm rusty a bit...
    But at least you'll have a punching bag to get wins from

    kicked this off with a couple of good wins vs HGB
    first game my germans brutalized his mongols

    second game i suggested i'd go bottom tier and he went indian, but then i sneekily changed my mind and went for the french
    my french then took out the english GS'd feud and took out all the other AI including egypt with stonehenge, he discovered AW but I had another GS and so i teched construction and GS'd engineering.

    Simply my culture and GP management shut the door on any chance he had.

    then agian he was pinned in by the aztec and had a terrible start so i probably had lots of room for error.

    i think a win should be 2 points... and a lost should be zero... but for every 3 loses there should be a 1 point granted because, those ppl are actually playing, and the ppl who arent playing arent giving the other players any points, and could hinder the scores at the end.. you know what i mean?

    for example if i played all my games and lost everytime times... and got zero... and i actualy was into playing, while some guy played 1 game.. and got his 1 point.. and we never see him.. its kinda unfair he gets to go to the finals with barely any games under his belt...

    just wanted to point this out

    how about 1 point for every 2 played - that means 4 losses - 1 win? easier to calculate and that means you get 1 point right now

    sniper ill keep you on so you can loose by non-participation or make a last minute dash to crush us all in 2-3 weeks

    You guys just meeting up in the original Civ Rev Gamers I chat for this, or is there another I need an invite to? I did have Gamers II but seems to have disappeared since the outage. Will get some games in soon.

    Results should probably be recorded on the thread in multiplayer?

    2 games vs liam.

    1. My spain vs Liams Indians. I walk and get 70 gold for my troubles. Spot liams borders. 30g from a barb while liam gets HBR from his, think that kinda screwed him, gold would have been better. My WA beats his No.3 horse in Delhi. Had he got the HA, probably would have been his win.

    2. My Indians vs Liams Japanese. He gets the gold this time & gets a few cities out, game freezes. But being completely honest, I had absolutley nothing going and was pinned into a long horrible piece of land by him.

    1-1 for me and Liam.

    EDIT: wish i took that England game as a tourny one
