I (a432) have won my match vs Jon Kaminski we played a few rounds and he surrendered saying we wasn't experienced enough with multiplayer yet.

How long until we declare no-shows? Still waiting on my opponent to create games and hasn't responded to my PMs...

Anyone else having this issue with error message ?

It doesn't seem to be affecting play as we can continue and ignore it - its just damn irritating !!

I have commenced my games and upload to server is done but I keep getting a '404 not found' error. When I check status of games it says they are with other player for action but the error makes me think something has gone wrong.

Anyone have similar issues ?

I occasionally get a "Stream reset" error, but it still always goes through

I'm in same situation- created games but no one joining and no response to PMs. Perhaps set a deadline for games to start like a week after initial announcement?

My guess is that Erik will start laying down the kick/ban hammer this weekend!

Erik has sent out PMs with warnings about not creating/responding to challenges.
I'll probably give players a chance to get their games going until this weekend has passed.

Yes, all hail Erik, nordic god of war and wargaming!
BTW, I am quite keen to see some combat footage. Any updates on that? (Yes, I cant join or play. I would be one of those people taking forever to do their turns due to other interjecting commitments - which would be quite rude. But I'd love to watch...)

I'm wondering if it might be worth organising an informal "losers bracket" for those who get knocked out in round 1 to try out the other scenarios in the tournament?
quite concur!

Here are the results of the tough match between me (conboy) and jlkuro99. We each won the red side, but somehow I managed to score 42 points in my loss - jlkuro managed 33 points in his loss. I believe that awards me the victory according to the rules.

Congratulations on a fine two-game match, jlkuro99!

Also, according to the instructions, here are the screen shots of the conclusions and the replays. I can't tell if both replays uploaded...

AH! No wonder he was so tough - you taught him all the secret moves...

Thanks conboy, I'll watch later.

And maybe the multiplayer replays won't be affected by the existing issues and will play fine to watch, hopefully. There's always something new to learn watching these... :)

recommend you use the print screen function and paste it into a printable document -- then click it and save as a .jpg. The screen capture in OoB is not easy to work with!

When will the people who don't show up (like my opponent) be eliminated?
