Well, if he can get back those points in his turn, he can still stay alive.
The day is coming when a single carrot, freshly observed, will set off a revolution.
Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
How is it currently going at COOlGuy vs. DoomCarrot and Daniel vs. Duneix?

COOLguy is mia. I am waiting for him to respond, but if we start to hold up the tournament, he will have to be eliminated unfortunately

There is not apparently, half points lose is kinda sucks, i always play it slow and become bigger and bigger overtime.Detros wrote: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.
There is that thing where i always had natural layout disadvantages in everygame of mine.

I am sure my longbowman are on top of my builder in a tc, so he should get hit instead. But my builder die, weird.

Ordering is random each turn, for each player. There is currently no way to make sure the order is in the way you want.Dan301002 wrote:I am sure my longbowman are on top of my builder in a tc, so he should get hit instead. But my builder die, weird.
Beside who gets damaged in TC this is also important for who survives in a wagon if that gets destroyed.
As I have said, if you have some catapults or multiple knights or workers to finish that castle which will be ready in few more turns, just continue, at least till Daniel and Duneix are again done.

ad layout: Here is my plan for this map:Dan301002 wrote:There is that thing where i always had natural layout disadvantages in everygame of mine.
I have seen you could go pink-magenta-magenta-magenta and get to those 2 TCs in the right bottom corner before me. So I have sent my first light cavalry with the green line, then pink one. When you have not appeared I have continued with the cyan line to the central island. My second light cavalry went with the yellow line and then turned east with ochre one. You have taken the gray cities in the meantime. Note I have run around the two cyan cities on my side at first and didn't capture them so that I can get faster to the central area. Transport ship moved reinforcements from the bottom corner to the centre and east.

Daniel just surrendered ; sorry I don't have much time. Game was pretty interesting, I have a lot of screenshots, but I have to pick up kidsDetros wrote:How is it currently going at COOlGuy vs. DoomCarrot and Daniel vs. Duneix?
I think Daniel tried to rush my tcs without immediately taking his one, but didn't manage it (except one that he lost after a few turns) and that penalized him in the mid-game.
But further explanation will come

OK. Or will you two do third match to get 2:1 score? Currently it is 1:1.Daniel (the dev) wrote:Yes he did very well! he deserves to win this round! Thanks!
Well you are already midway on round 3 while me, Dan, Daniel and Duneix are on round 2 and tamtam is waiting at the start of 3. So plenty of time for COOLguy.DoomCarrot wrote:COOLguy is mia.

Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
I've asked Daniel but he told me, he doesn't want a 3rd turn.
So I guess we can go on!

Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
Very well, brackets are updated!
tamtam and duneix are now matched for the winner's bracket semi-final! Good luck to both
Also, Daniel, you aren't out of this yet, although you do get a short break until Dan and Detros complete their game.
EDIT: I am kind of unclear on whether or not Detros v. Dan is over or not? Has Detros won?

Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
Since the end of my turn, his point is a little bit mucher than 2x of my points. Detros what do you say? I am already cornered pretty hard anyway.DoomCarrot wrote:Very well, brackets are updated!

The game with duneix now started.Duneix choose the map 40x40 greenfield.I seldom play this big map.It will be a great challenge.

But yes, DoomCarrot, I have got over 200% Dan's points for like five last turns but we kept on going for a bit longer to see if he can get out of it or not.

Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
Very well, if it has passed the 2x limit at the end of Dan's turn, then it is more or less over lol. I will try to update the brackets later today

Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
Brackets are updated! Please check your matches!
P.S. COOLguy please send message with game details. Now that they have caught up I give the 72 hour warning. If you do not respond in 72 hours, you will have to automatically forfeit from our match.

Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
Sum up from my game against Daniel:
Game started, we are at turn 8-10 (?)
Daniel decided to rush my tcs in the SW. He didn't take all his tcs in the North, but conquered one of mine.
Unfortunately he made one (lonely) mistake, leaving the tc with a single dog, sending his pikeman to me, and losing both at the same time while my units just got the attack upgrade.
After that, he went on harrassing me with crossbowmen, preparing a second attack with horses in the North, next to a castle.
On my side I produced horses to counter the crossbowmen and started producing catapults. I also started to produce an assassin to destroy the castle
I launched a small attack in the Center and in the North in order to prepare the attack of my assassin, and to gain some time. At that moment, I knew the game was almost won as Daniel lost much time producing pikemen and archers in his towns, so I had much more workers than him -> much more catapults in the mid-term.

Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
Second attack, castle + 2 towers + one trebuchet destroyed
This is how the game ended, as Daniel surrendered at that moment.
Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
And this is my game against tamtam, which gonna end in the next few turns.
As he was starting, had a better position, and played very very well, I have no chance to win.

Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
The score is currently 3139/1200 at the start of Dan301002's 25th turn as I have took another of his TCs. I guess in like 5 turns I may be able to finish him completely if he doesn't want to surrender.
In the meantime I await map details from Daniel (Da < De). If you want it, Daniel, I don't have objections to play this River Loop map again. Maybe the river could be just 3 tiles wide but otherwise the distribution of water tiles and bridges seems quite nice in offering the tactical question which way you pick: do you just use map bridges, make a ship transport or will you build your own bridges? Much better than those impassable mountains some maps use as dividers.

Honestly,I can't predict your strategy. I predict it wrong.
If we both online,maybe we can have a fast game?

Both AoS & AoWW (basically i am cornered, but then between losing grounds or slowly taking it back, in this case i forgot to maximize the buildings potential).
If this tournament is over, i want to see co-op tournament. Will be interesting.

Re: Carrot Cup 2017! --Ongoing--
I think the reason is: If someone don't have enough time(eg.homework/trip),they maybe skipped.Then the game may become less fun. Also,if someone disappear,how to find another player.Dan301002 wrote: I never see that kind of tournament.
