Excuse me! Far be it from me to complain and make a big fuss of things, but the lack of a response to my request to participate in the ongoing tournaments strikes me as strange. I have mentioned my desire to participate on this forum and I have emailed Shambles on two occasions requesting to participate, all to no avail. Why am I being ignored? Do I smell like fish or something? It seems to defy reason that someone who enthusiastically wants to participate in the community starved for members be turned away without a good reason. Sorry for making a fuss, but playing Shogun is something that I really want to do. Let me into the tree fort!
have you sent shambles an email with a pic? If not I think he wants you to do the official way of getting in the tourney. maybe he hasn't seen your mail yet or just didn't think it was necessary to reply. shambles himself is the best to answer here.Quote:

Prehaps if we get enough players we can have 2v2 tournie as well as a 1v1 tourny.
Thank you all for your interest,

ShinGaiJin
Bow at Hunkinelvis for impressive stats... :bow:
Congratulations to both who reached the final. ~:)
Glad to see you two worked it out so soon, now the second tourney will start I cannot wait :duel:
conmiserations to Cha... but well fought! :bow:
Remember to Sign up :).
Beginer or veteran, All are welcome,
Good game, Cha. That was a hard game. ~:thumb: :balloon2: :balloon: :balloon3:
Congratulations Elvis!
You deserve 1st place.
shambles if you don't mind having 16 players I'd love to help. Í have several boards on which some people might be intrested...
about terrain:
maybe you again wish to have a hard final terrain, but I'd say include totomi(maybe first round) then 4th K or nagashima as second round. then maybe a more hilly map for the final. azukizaka and aki are also welcome of course. ~:)
rules of the last tourney were totally fine IMO.
we will see how many people apply,
It was pretty tough getting 8 last time if i recall.
maybe More know this time round,
theres 5 appliccation's so far
So we shall see :)
_______________________
As for the maps,
My personal opinion is when your going to war You Tend to find the Defending hostiles Have heard you were coming And have decided to use some sort of terrain advantage.
I.e A bridge, or a cliff edge.
Id like the map progression to at least slightly reflect the above statement.
I.E
Easy maps 1st When you caught the defenders unnaware on almost even ground.
Lie 4th / totomi "or similar"
Now the news of 1st victory would spread In real life, so knowing that the victor is now coming for them the defenders would chose a better place to defend them selfs,
I used AWA last time a bridge crossing, Dosent need to be a bridge or anything to serious but id like it to be harder to attack on than the previous map.
Again word would spread of the victor. And the next army of defenders would chose a Better place to defend Yet again,
I chose awaji last time.
Big ass cliff. usualy With Good weather options.
"provided attacker choses season"
And so on.
Im shure we can get a balance of terrains that works for every one.
also the more players we can find the more maps we can use.
id also like to discuss Using no musketeers, As an option,
Perhaps it could coax some of the players who used to play but stoped because of musketeers in to joining us.

:bow:
hmmm. I prefer using them, but the rule wouldn't make me step out of the tourney.Quote:

toga would be intrested but has no connection atm. I'm sure anskar is intrested, and perhaps Ishida, Methos or E-menel too, but they have been away for a while and I'm not sure they'll read about the tourney in time.
Cha

YoJimbO
are the names so far.
I left a message Teling people about the tournie at the 7bear7 forum But i dont visit any other STW sites,
Regarding th muskets..
Muskets dont bother me either, but some people may prefer playing without.
If people were to request Musket free tourniment, then we could concider it.
Ah I see.
Well I'm a bit surprised by the list there is now. mmmmm this is 5. maybe Rabid, hunkinelvis,shakakhan and wingman will join too. that's more then 8... but not even close to 16..
have you tried to convince trish again? ~D
Toga here, checking in for the first time in a few months. Since I was last here I've moved to the other side of the United States and am now in charge of three children under 5 years old while their mother recovers from major surgery (her husband, a close friend of mine for years, is a very hard-working attorney). My computer went tits up just before I left the West, so I'm using my bro's laptop to send this. Needless to say, I won't be playing any games online for quite a while, given my circumstances. I will be able to pop in now and then on the forums though.
Interesting--Cha and Elvis both from Korea, both finalists ... . Congrats to you both. I hope everyone who participated had fun.
Nice to see you are representing the 47s Drisos. Keep up the good work. I won't be doing any gaming soon, but I'll see if I can light a fire under the other 47s' butts. My buddy here has a vacation home in Tampa, which is only 100 miles or so from where Methos lives in Orlando, so I'm hoping to actually meet and harass Methos in person soon :P. I'll get in touch with him and the others and pitch the tourney to them--the more the merrier etc.
(6 month old baby boy hollers in background) .... duty calls, see ya'll later :).
Mr. Mom Toga
Glad to see you again toga :)
dont be a stranger my friend
:bow:

I might post a link to my nearly finished guide here too someday. Cool you might meet methos in real sometime ~D tell him to drop by. ~:)
Take care.
Response is prety slow, So im just Bumping this thread ,
Hopefully More will join the tourniment :)
Then we can begin :)

My playing time has changed. My possible playing times are:
11:00 am - 1:00 pm GMT; Mon-Thurs
5:00 pm - 6:00 pm GMT; Fri
5:00 am - 7:00 am GMT; Sat, Sun (maybe)
I'm always interested so long as it finishes before November or starts after November. I'm on the road for that month.
well I hope we either start soon... we must get a few more players or we try to find 16 and start later... but I'd rather finish before november ~:)
Shambles, Here's somethign on the maps for the next tourney~:)
:bow: hope we can start soon!Quote:
- Totomi (the fairest map aside from IB)
- Azukizaka (Tokugawa) a nice map with challenges for both sides
- Aki (hilly and forested; favors the defender, very much so if they camp in the corner)
- 4th Kawanakajima (small hills, hard to attack, but it can be done)
- Nagashima (the standard one, not "Nobunaga"; small rises and forests, hard to attack and to defend--beware any Aggonies on this map--they know it well).
- Buzen (Hill for defender with a forest on it, harder to attack)
- Owari (double bridges, a bit harder for defender)
- Tajima (attacker starts on beach, Defender on rise, but it can be successfully attacked with the right, slow approach)
For a dramatic change, try Yamato. It is covered with small hills and patches of forest. It requires an untypical army to be successful here. Small hills for the defender, but it can definitely be attacked successfully with a creative approach. Ninja, Kensai, and shock infantry do particularly well on this map ... . Take fewer cav on this one, definitely (do take at least a couple though ...).
still 1 player short my freind.
I am going to update tourny page tomorrow though So people can see who is playing,
And then il be asking people to post there avialable playing days and times,
Like the last tourny These times will be displayed with the playerts stats on the tourny board
the maps Will neede to be tested for fairness, But again if we play the best of 3, 1 attack 1 defend 1 on ib (if needed)
it will even them selfs out,
Again id like for the terrains to become progressivley more difficult for the attacker,
And we can see which maps are best,
We can even hold a vote on the matter.
:bow:
P.S
" If we sucessfully host and play this tourny, Maby next time I will find some cheap and tacky oriental dolls or sumthing, And we may even get prizes (Dont hold your breath though) as i do have a daughter that will always come before any Buying of prizes,
But Its a thought on how to get people, back playing,
THIS WILL DEFINATLY NOT BE IMPLIMENTED THIS TOURNY"
Also if you browse the forum for a post about "whats 1.03 stats about" (or something like that)
I am trying to find out which stats would Entice the veterans back to playing.
And prehaps more stats can be made and tested Untill every 1 is happy.
:bow:
I know.... I'll try to get Methos or Asnkar in~;) thanks for editing that page, so I can see how my pic looks ~:)Quote:

1st Round: Totomi/Azukizaka/Aki/Nagashima/4th K (these are the fairest maps around)
2nd round: Buzen/Tajima/Suruga/Hitachi/Chikuezen (just a few examples of harder maps)
3rd round: Owari/Yamato/Mutsu/Nagashino/Kozuke (just a few examples of very hard, and various types of maps)
hello.
Concerning the Tourniment.
Were still 1 player short,
But could all contestants Please confirm their interest in the Tournie, Also Could al entrants Send me their Little pictures for the tournament Board,
And also Post their available Playing times/Days.
-----------------------------------------
Also if every contestant could possibly Come up with a list of terrain names that could be apropriate.
or prehaps just name some of your faves So we can produce a short list and find some terrains Every 1 would be happy with,
We can iron out the terain details later.
-------------------
We also need to decide on the rules of this tourniment,
We played the last one at,
10k koku,
maximum 4 of 1 unit allowed,
no yari ashigaru (super yari)
v1.02
in a best of 3 format 1 as defender 1 as attacker, 1 on ironing board.
It was 1v1 8 player tournament,
which consisted of 4 blocks of 2 player,
With 1 person proceeding from each block
We could discuss the posibilaty of using a v1.03 patch to help eliviate the need for the max of 4 1 unit type rule,
A nother idea that was posted is that we use v1.02 and ban Muskets all together and use arbusqiters, at 7k koku. and allow yari ashigaru's
Or have a max 2 muskets rule. 7k koku and yari ashigaru,
Again arbusqiters would be ok.
more ideas Are welcome,
And hopefully we can iron out a set of solid rules that even the veterans will enjoy playing,
Thank you for your time,
P.S
I was going to update the tourniment board today but I need pictures, :)
I have sent requests to all who have requested to join,
I Think I already have your picture drisos....
is it the same as your msn pic?
Any way thats about it for now,
So
Thanks in advance.
