 Re: A SubZero Christmas Tournament 2019Hammer_2 wrote: Don't mind the megacorping, using probes was the real despicable action from what I can read!  Hammer, I've said it many times because it's true - I have always learned the most about Tradewars from the games I've lost. The big game this past summer was painful for me, but it taught me the importance of data mining, something I had not focused on previously. We had this game 90% probed in the first 2 hours and 100% probed on about day 3, and that is what allowed us to hunt people down and eventually win. I would imagine the next game we play against you will involve some contention over probes _________________ TOURNAMENT WINNER: ICE 2017 - ICE 2019 - SUMMER SPLASH 2019 - XMAS TOURNEY 2019 |

Re: A SubZero Christmas Tournament 2019 GBI, Good Bad and Indifferent, was the winner of the first WTC. They "mega corped" with Peacemaker's team to defeat the strongest team, the Black Knights. It wasn't a true mega corp more like sharing information and taking turns invading.
WTC I and II were, arguably, the last great TW tournaments. There were over 120 entries in first WTC and I think close to 90 the next year. Xmas had 16 entries. For 8 of them to mega corp is just comical. _________________ HOME SECTOR TITLE - 2001 USO - 2001 WTC - 2002 BIG GAME - 2019 HHT |

Re: A SubZero Christmas Tournament 2019 I guess we should feel Honored that they felt they needed 8 players to beat us

Re: A SubZero Christmas Tournament 2019 Micro wrote: I guess we should feel Honored that they felt they needed 8 players to beat us See, the thing is, we didn't. The game was over in 1 hour when we had it 90% probed, were in Enterras and Boats, and nearly everyone else was stuck at dock in starter ships. Our entire second (cashing) corp had yet to leave stardock, so they themselves didn't get fotoned. They didn't leave until after extern the first night. We ran two teams so we could all play together, not because we needed to do so to win. We would have won, easily, with one corp (either one, with our startup scripts.) _________________ TOURNAMENT WINNER: ICE 2017 - ICE 2019 - SUMMER SPLASH 2019 - XMAS TOURNEY 2019 |

Except that we also had the universe >90% probed before extern, had our cashers operating, and while none of us were photoned, one of your first team players was. Nope, you only began catching up because you could both grid and cash with a full team each. There is no basis for your claim. |
