2006/Y8 Altador World Cup! (Split 12)

[burntouttrash]

Just thought I'd say congrats to all the Haunted Woods folks (especially the people who picked them right at the start, you lucky so-and-sos).

I kinda wish I'd spent more time playing this round, as I actually had time this weekend (previously I felt that A level revision rather trumped computer games), but as long as there's a nice looking trophy and some reasonable prizes I'm happy.

[Gondra]

Congrats all people who actually played and won with haunted woods

i think i submited like 1 score after playing about 3 times heh

[Susannahmio]

wow, that round was really close. Congrats Haunted Woods Supporters. I was a supporter for the last couple of rounds and I admit I haven't played as much as I should have.

Congrats again, and here's to hoping we don't have to wait a month for our prizes.

[Ms Manic]

Congratulations to Haunted Woods



damn you

I picked Faerieland, Krawk Island, Krawk Island, Haunted Woods - and I played 506 games overall.

My daughter chose Haunted Woods from the start and stayed with them - but played less than 10 games overall.

It will be interesting to see the trophy/prize difference.

Whoo! Haunted Woods! i only played like 3 games, since i had no time, but i'm still happy we won

[Wind]

Blah. One of the few teams I deeply despised. I just hope the prizes are good.

[Ixistant]

YES! I told you the Haunted Woods would win.

And I think the people who chose the Haunted Woods at the start and stuck with them all the way through it should get the best prizes, because lets face it, picking the winning team was a 1/16 chance, and since we did choose that lucky team we should get the best prizes.

At least the Altador Plot prizes should be out soon now too.

Didn't we say that last month too?

I only submitted 26 scores, between work, our new kitten, and moving I didn't get alot of time to play. Now I really regret it.
Oh well, as long as I get SOMETHING I'll be happy!

*cough* I have.. actually..

So someone who made a lucky guess and joined HW in round 1, sent one score and never touched the game again should get a better prize than someone who sent 100 scores every round for other teams but just joined HW for the final round? Yeah, sounds really fair to me.

I'm fine with the prizes working kinda like this:

Top: HW players who were with it from the start and sent tons of scores
Second: HW players who joined anytime after round 1 and sent tons of scores
Third: Darigan players who were there from the start and sent tons of scores
Fourth: Darigan players who joined anytime after round 1 and sent tons of scores
Fifth: HW players who were with it from the start and sent just a few scores
Sixth: Darigan players who were with it from the start and sent just a few scores
Seventh: HW players who joined late and sent just a few
Eighth: Darigan players who joined late and sent just a few.

I thiiiiiink that would work for me. It's really simplified, though. They would have to insert different levels (maybe 1-10 scores, 10-50, 50-100, 100-200, etc.) in there instead of just saying "lots" or "a few." But I think it should be partially based on correctly choosing the winning team, but mostly based on merit -- how much time and effort you put into it.

I totally agree with you there. I believe they said something like that too. Hooray for us for picking the correct team in round one!

Yes, it is fair, because they chose the correct team. Now I didn't send tonnes of scores, but that's because I didn't have enough time between school show and other life stuff, and I'm sure there are other people who are in the same position. A condition for getting prizes should be that you've sent away at least 3 scores, but that's it.

The way I see it going is:

1 ) People who chose HW at the start and stuck with them
2 ) People who chose HW in 2nd Round and stuck with them
3 ) People who chose HW in 3rd Round and stuck with them
4 ) People who chose HW for the Final
5 ) People who chose Darigan at the start and stuck with them
6 ) People who chose Darigan in 2nd Round and stuck with them
7 ) People who chose Darigan in 3rd Round and stuck with them
8 ) People who chose Darigan for the Final
