[Tournament] Codex Asynchronous Fall Swiss 2016 - Complete!

Looks like you got your wish

Final round 5 paring is @lettucemode vs @zhavier.

65

Round 6 will be delayed until at least one of the Round 5 matches finishes, or until Monday when I’ll feel justified in Adjudicating (or at least picking a winner for pairing purposes) @Alhazard vs. @Castanietzsche and @CarpeGuitarrem vs. @Zejety. Note that next week was set aside as a catch-up week, so this delay is eating into that time. Round 7 will be posted Nov. 10 as planned.

66

I’m chugging along as fast as I can…

67

I am confident my game will finish in the next few turns… Mainly cause I think I’m about to lose.

68

I like how the two matches I specifically didn’t call out are the ones commenting on their efforts.

Players who slow things down will be forced to play bashing in future tournaments

Would you care to elaborate for a newbie? Is Bashing really bad? Or really slow? Or really fast (I doubt it)? Thx.

71

I’m just being a smartass. Bashing is generally considered the only spec where you’re actually at a disadvantage if you play it. It seems to be tuned for the bashing vs finesse matchup (in the intro set), not the full game of Codex.

72

Bashing vs finesse is well balanced, but they are different versatile specs.
Unfortunately for bashing, it’s a more standalone versatile, as opposed to finesse’s more unique versatile.
So bashing is generally outclassed by other stuff, whereas finesse still has strong tricks you can’t find elsewhere.

73

Really not trying to derail this thread…

Heh, frozenstorm could actually post turn one regardless, cause either way he must face green’s might.

77

Because @Khel had to drop out, @cstick is re-paired against @Mooseknuckles (cstick still going first)

The ranks are thinning!

Round 8 pairings:

CAFS 2016: Marto ([Necro]/Blood/Truth) vs. EricF ([Past]/Peace/Anarchy)
CAFS 2016: cstick ([Demon]/Law/Anarchy) :psfist: vs. :knockdown: Zejety ([Finesse]/Discipline/Strength)
FrozenStorm gets a BYE

At this point, as long as progress is being made in each game, I won’t adjudicate them regardless of deadline, but if there is extended or repeated inactivity, I’ll post warnings.

Round 9 pairings

CAFS 2016: FrozenStorm ([Past]/Peace/Anarchy) vs. Marto ([Necro]/Blood/Truth)
CAFS 2016: cstick ([Demon]/Law/Anarchy) vs. EricF ([Past]/Peace/Anarchy)

At this point, Round 9 is fixed, regardless of how the Marto/EricF match goes. Each win in round 9 and beyond is worth one APT point, and these are the matches to watch!

@Marto has disappeared, and as the next CASS tournament will be starting this week, I’m calling this one.
