Parckdeck's necro beats Arxiducs' priest in an arena swamped with creatures.... A timely teleport kidnapping the mage from the safe zone served to feed the brutes some mage flesh... fun match to play! tks Parkey!

[Reddicediaries]

Wait who won? You said I ported him to the zombs.

[arxiducs]

***Announcement***

All games must be played by February 26th.  Any games not played will go down as losses for both players unless sufficient evidence is given that only one player was the holdup. In a case of tied amounts of wins, players with the most games played will advance.

Just a reminder. Especially in group's C and D it could make a difference who advances to the next round. That really would be a shame (from my point of view).

[Reddicediaries]

Can anyone record me vs park 12PM today?

[Coshade]

Yes

[theasaris]

Could we get an updated list of all the mages used by all players?

Also, now that the deadline is up, how are the remaining games scored and when will the second stage begin?

[jacksmack]

Could we get an updated list of all the mages used by all players?

I think this would be great for fairplay as some matches are recorded or mentionened  in this thread with what players used what mages.

Personally i would hate to start spending time (wasting) investigating what mages my next opponents has used. So i rather have it officially announced.

Just wanted to thank everyone that has played so far in the ADMW Winter Special! I've been seeing a lot of awesome games using and abusing some of the new tech we get from all these sweet expansions. What I have really appreciated so far is that I have not had one mean conversation with any competitor yet! In fact there has been an extremely high amount of sportsmanship from everyone so far. Anyone that is not advancing, just know that I would love to see you back in the next tournament.


While we still have a backlog of games to release from the first stage, I would like to move the event forward to...
Stage Two

Congrats to everyone advancing to the next stage!
So now that we are entering a double elimination set there are a few things I would like to remind players of that is different from the first stage
1) Upkeep phase is limited to 3 minutes, barring any sort of lag which will allow for some extensions (we all know how octgn gets sometimes).
2) Planning phases are limited to 5 minutes (300 seconds). Judges will regulate the time limit and give proper warnings in advance.
3) During both the first and last quick cast and the main action phase - Players will be limited to 1 minute to decide each action. Executing an action will not be timed. Judges will regulate the timer
4) All games from here on must have a judge be present. If there is a big time problem there can be an exception, but in general we want to record every game in this stage.

There are a number of players that have some games I unfortunately missed mages for whatever reason. If you are a player below, please just PM me so I can update which mages you are crossing out for your games. Let me know if there are any errors as well!

Schneeeente --> In the clear!
Keejchen ---> In the clear!

Aridigas ---> In the clear!
Sharkbait --> In the clear!

Parkdeck ---> In the clear!
Powlich ---> In the clear!

Theasaris ---> In the clear!
Jacksmack ---> In the clear!
I wish everybody luck and know that if you win there will be all sorts of internet prizes in your future!

If anyone is looking to see who their next opponent is please check out the Challonge
We will be announcing the beginning of the brackets once everyone has gotten their mages in

[keejchen]

So how do we proceed from here? Should we just organize matches as before and then try to find a judge?
