Okay, here we go!

Round 1 part 1:

  1. [XCAFS23] Round1 part1: P1 zango [Finesse]/Feral/Present vs P2 Bryce_The_Rice [Demonology]/Necromancy/Finesse
  2. [XCAFS23] Round1 part1: P1 Dreamfire [Anarchy/Fire]/Demon vs P2 charnel_mouse [Balance]/Blood/Strength
  3. [XCAFS23] Round1 part1: P1 dwarddd monopurple vs P2 Qwzmda [Finesse]/Demonology/Necromancy
  4. [XCAFS23] Round1 part1: P1 thehug0naut [Feral]/Present/Discipline vs P2 flagrantangles monoblue
  5. [XCAFS23] Round1 part1: P1 FrozenStorm [Anarchy]/Growth/Strength vs P2 rathyAro [Finesse]/Peace/Truth

Round 1 part 2:

  1. [XCAFS23] Round1 part2: P1 Bryce_The_Rice [Demonology]/Necromancy/Finesse vs P2 zango [Finesse]/Feral/Present
  2. [XCAFS23] Round1 part2: P1 charnel_mouse [Balance]/Blood/Strength vs P2 Dreamfire [Anarchy/Fire]/Demon
  3. [XCAFS23] Round1 part2: P1 Qwzmda [Finesse]/Demonology/Necromancy vs P2 dwarddd monopurple
  4. [XCAFS23] Round1 part2: P1 flagrantangles monoblue vs P2 thehug0naut [Feral]/Present/Discipline
  5. [XCAFS23] Round1 part2: P1 rathyAro [Finesse]/Peace/Truth vs P2 FrozenStorm [Anarchy]/Growth/Strength

So it looks like @flagrantangles and @thehug0naut can continue their infinite casual round in a tournament setting and that it’s my honor to try and find a solution against the most oppressive turn 1 first.

edit: also please remember to mention the rule changes for the sake of spectators.

Hmmmm, I didn’t realize there were rules changes at all. :laughing: Are they summarized somewhere? I want to make sure I get the right ones.

23

you can just copy-paste this:

Just to check, should be starting and playing both these games at once, or just part 1 for now?

25

Whatever the two of you prefer. I’m definitely more into playing it one after the other, but it both of you want to play it in parallel, why not?

26

Hmmm, I guess simultaneous play would be the way to avoid not playing as hard as possible, but I think its not good for the players keeping focused (certainly not for me anyway).

@flagrantangles I’d prefer to play our part 1 first, so if you want you can leave up your part 2 post as is or edit it to a placeholder for now. I’ve not actually looked at it properly so when the time comes please feel free to retake that turn if you change your mind about it after our first game.

27

Oh, oops. I am harebrained today and didn’t even parse them as two parts. That’s on meeeee. :laughing:

28

Am I in time for round 1 pairings?

Either way, I’d like to join with [Finesse]/Peace/Truth

Is this saying that this rule change is no longer in and Vandy’s maxband is the same as before?

Welcome @rathyAro it’s a pleasure to have you!

Yes, exactly. We shortly raised the issue but didn’t reach consensus, hence it’s the original wording.

@FrozenStorm : you just got an opponent! I just edited the round one links above, so you can start your match!
