It's Evisela but I like the new name ;D

As said above, but no worries ;D

The 39th Guards Rifle Division is ready to liberate the Hungarians from their Fascist oppressors!

Lol my bad dude.  Friday is pretty much a no go for me, unless it's late my time.  Thursday all day/night is good.  Saturday and Sunday some morning/afternoon matches would be alright.

Pacific Time

Daemonium and Panzer4life will defend here.

Actually, how are they attacking this sector, its well behind German front-lines. They have to take 34 first, as of now, we have 34 and they have no adjacent territory to attack from.
PS: I am able to play saturday and Sunday, not tomorrow as I am out of town then, and friday I will be dealing with getting back to normal from my long trip to Ohio and back.

It's a conditional attack.

??? So they can hit targets behind our frontlines and take land? Odd.  :-\

How it works is the attack only goes through if a connected territory is captured. For instance, if we were to win this sector, but 32 and 34 were not captured, 33 would also remain in axis hands. Does that clarify?

And I will be available every remaining day of the week other than Friday.

Alright, that makes sense,

Now that sector 34 has been taken, this sector pretty much is the Front-line. See how it works, it simply speeds things up.

On a related note, when is this game going to be played? I see no doodle.

Has to be tonight or Sunday, going out tomorrow :P

Will be Sunday then. I couldn't make it tonight.

What time we goin'?

How about now? I am up and able to play, and I can set-up the game. Here are the game specs;
Name: Battle for sector 33
Password: rommel

Also, is it best of 3?

all games should be best of 3 (The rules used to be different but they changed at some point and not sure when)

Yes, it is. And I can't right now :( sry

What time are we doing this then?  Later tonight?

That's fine with me :P

You able to play over the next few hours?

Should be able to. Although I won't be able to get on until sometime later, latest being 10 my time :(

Edit: If you can, find a replacement for me, because I can't promise anything. Sorry guys, family stuff.

10 your time is what pacific time?  Don't know what timezone you're in.

K well I've been around all day, anyone coming on tonight?  Haven't seen anybody...

Seeing as Daemonium is AWOL and the teams couldn't agree on a time, I don't know how to hand this.

Since this week is a break time. I'd suggest seeing if panzer4life can do it anytime tomorrow with someone here for a 1v1, but only for tomorrow. Any longer is just too much time given to all of you. It doesnt help that none of you posted a doodle as it should be required for attackers. Its not that hard to do that.

If it is allowed by cranial for 1 day extension Ill PM panzer4life and help try to establish a 1v1. If a day extension is not allowed I'd lobby for Panzer4life to not get the penalty box and see it as a draw with no territories exchange since it was a matter of no one bothering to actively try to get a time down, mostly everyone did was suggest a date but not time (again no doodle!).

Its up to cranialwizard though. make a decision!

I normally try to avoid putting people in the Penalty Box unless it's an absolute fault of a player. Panzer's availability just didn't match the Allied players so that's not really his fault. Just a shame his partner wasn't there to pick up the slack.

Why not, I'll allow a bit of an extension on your behalf.

Okay, Ev do you want to do the 1vs1 tommorow?  Or are you unavailable?

Try to post some free time you have throughout the day on the allies side. Ill be harassing panzer4life to do the same and hopefully we can get a game going to end this.

Well I know I'll be free between 12 and 7pm Pacific time.  I work at 8 Pacific time so I won't be free then.

Ok, I PMed Panzer4life to let him know about the game extension and to come and try to arrange with either you or evisela a 1v1 game. I also told him to PM you guys if he had to. hopefully this goes down

I'll send you a PM

I am available now for about an hour, and will be available at 20:00 GMT to about 23:00 GMT today. Please respond quickly so that I know when to be online, I have some things to get to today.

I guess this game isn't played. The rules say it goes to the defender.

Oh, ok. I was trying to contact the attackers, but ok, if they are fine with it.

It seems Evisela is here, if you would like to make it official.

I sent him a 2nd PM just before i got to the thread to see what was what. He doesn't know if he is attacking or what. So i don't know what is going on.

I told Heim that I would prefer him to do the fight, as I am sick and am not in the best playing mood, I got no reply from him.

Well I just got up and I'm ready to play

And I think this is kind of bs that this would go to the Axis to be honest...Panzer4life expected us to be online at the time he posted saying he could play right that instance?  Kind of wishful thinking.  Then when that couldn't happen he just dissapeared and the whole second page is me and Ev agreeing on a time to play on Sunday/Monday and then no word from Panzer or the other guy.  If anything this goes to the allies.

This is why you NEED, NEED, NEED to post a doodle. You need to get a doodle up to automatically convert your timezone, look at the chart, and PICK A BACKUP time. No, he may not have posted, but it was Sunday. Teams should not be organizing their attacks on Sunday. The way most people end up doing is playing Saturday or Sunday, but picking that time on Thursday or Wednesday.

You can NOT expect the game to be played by just logging in one day and saying "Alright lets play right now" or "Ok this is the only day I have so we need to play within the next hour or no game". It just doesn't work like that. If you know you have limited availability, post the doodle, label the times you have, and get the others to put their own times down. It's not a difficult process.

I considered giving this to the allies but I never saw a doodle which is not according to rules, nor is it anyone's fault that this didn't happen accordingly because no one could get an organized time.

Axis Victory.
