Red Storm Release - Eastern Front Tournament

[Shards]

I had expected the Germans to have an advantage on this map, which I'm not averse to, given the paired games.

It's very easy to come unstuck as Russia though, they need to pick their flanks and use the terrain to defend desperately elsewhere. Whereas the Germans often bring a few nasty hammerheads of Panzer Stug nastiness.

But I do agree that the Russians are running low on RP quicker than I anticipated.

Anyone else experiencing server error recently when trying to upload a turn?

[Erik2]

Yes, can't upload my last turn in the game.

Not in the tournament but ditto the error for me

[Shards]

Yeah, I've just hit this too, will investigate asap

[unitlost]

Same for me on turn 12

[Shards]

It's a general thing, not just tournament related.

Will let you know when I hear back from the server guys

[Shards]

Okay, this seems to be fixed now!

Hallo
nach über 7 Tagen macht mein Gegner seinen ersten Zug !!!

Bin sehr gespannt wie wir das schaffen wollen. Schaue sehr oft nach und werde immer so schnell wie möglich meinen Zug beenden.
Habe trotzdem die Befürchtung das die letzten 2,75 Tage nicht ausreichen werden, diese 2. Runde gerecht zu beenden.

Hi,

A user has reported that the score that they have in-game doesn't match teh score that's shown on the tournaments leaderboard

https://www.slitherine.com/tournaments/scores/pbem2/73

I think that I can see the issue, and it might be that every single score is inverted in this map :/

[Shards]

So, the live leaderboard is a bit of a lie right now!

We can't fix this whilst this round is going on, so there might have to be a bit of imagination used when looking at the table. I'll make the maths work at the end and do an ad-hoc leaderboard in the meantime if I can.

[Shards]

So, assuming my suspicions are correct, and everyone has their opponent's score, here's the correct table as of 1700 BST on 13th Oct:

Round-3.
Designer reminders like these should be replaced by something more suitable.

That's not a designer reminder per se. It's exactly what the event does!

I use the bracket shorthand in all my scenarios to tell the player exactly what's been updated.

But I can understand that you'd like a bit more flavour here

Aha. It looks very similar to the designer notes bebro adds to his messages and is (supposed to be ) removed after the beta testing.
Juast a little bit more immersive txt would do, I don't need a novel

Hi guys, "Maui J" here. First and most importantly, thank you for putting in the work so that we could enjoy this fun tournament. Secondly, it seems like you guys are on it but FYI my opponents and my score for round 3 are reversed on the leaderboard. Thanks again, looking forward to the next tournament

[Shards]

Hi Maui,

Yeah, there a bug with the current scenario that I can't fix whilst the tournament is on. It'll be fixed in the next patch for future tournament use.
