Preferably, he'd have to be a lifeless sod with a lot of time on his hands, but I can settle for only the latter quality as well.

I am not abandoning the tournament, I'm just taking a break from EB fora, AARs, tournaments and the like, have other priorities at the moment that require my urgent attention.
I will, however, retain the right to veto any jury decision and I want all PMs and discussions of the jury to be forwarded to me.

I could do the extra work, though this would still leave us one jury member short....

The consensus amongst the jury members was that if there are more players on one team than the other, one of the jury members will step in to give whoever's left out a chance to fight. But since most jury members were already in, I just randomly chose a number from the Roman team.

These are individual victory points we're talking about, I suppose I should've emphasised that point. Tolg's official Round II battle is agaisnt Silence Hunter. If he wins there he has 2 victory points and will be among the candidates for the final battle which will decide the winning side of the tournament.

As for your requests/inquiries the new rules have been posted on the mainpage.
The "penetration" exploit has been banned, for example, also, cavalry limit is now 4, as the more important of the changes.

Great, I've been hoping for a 1v1 against Irish. Though it's a bit sad that it won't count.

Also I will have to familiarize myself with the new rules. It'd be kind of embarrassing for jury member to be disqualified for using the wrong units...

I'm looking forward to it as well, though I'm disappointed that I can't field Alexander's full army as he crossed the Hellespont due to lack of cash...

Yeah thats too bad, you can scale it a bit down though, maybe that will work

?

This is quite sad news - Belisarios did a lot to get this project going and keep it going.

Good luck to the battlers and about that Battle between me and Alexanderthegreater - will get it done soon.

Hi guys, as you probably have noticed i have not been active in this tournament for quite some time now. The reason for this is that i ran into a whole bunch of work with school and such and i couldn't find time for this. Real life sucks...

Anyway, it doesn't look like i'll have time anyway for this anymore, but if anyone would like to do some training matches on the weekend, i could play with you.

Regards,
Potocello

Well, Poto, I hope you solve all your issues. It'd be nice to have you on for the next one after this.

Oh, and Hun... I'm not dead, I'm just taking a vacation, and have a bad internet connection it seems.
I'm PM'ing you guys with proposals for my replacement.

And I'm PM'ing the participants to notify them that Round II has started... apparently, nothing's going on.
