Order of Battle - Inaugural MP Tournament Chat Thread

[Erik2]

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

I think I posted somewhere that this last weekend was the last chance for players to create or join challenges.
Let me discuss this with Shards...

Victory for tapir man is one of our games - the other continues !

I tried to take a screenshot but it didn't succeed. Not sure where I went wrong

In Order of Battle, you can hit F9 to take a screenshot. They'll arrive in \Documents\My Games\Order of Battle - WW2\Screenshots

From what I can see, 4 players haven't engaged with the tournament yet.

Bubblebox (vs 13obo)
t341 (vs aztecdancer1)
Nixoncc (vs carth)
iPad63 (vs Duplex)

I'd recommend that these 4 are dropped and the other 4 are given a chance to play against each other. e.g. 13obo vs Duplex, aztecdancer1 vs carth.

That'll leave us 2 short for the next round, but I'll let Erik decide if he wants to take through the 2 highest scoring losers or some other method. I'd also recommend being more lenient with the time limit for this round to compensate for teething difficulties).

Thanks!

I applied too late but I am the first reserve from what I know.
I sent an email to Alberto, so I should play if someone withdrew.

[Shards]

I entirely approve of eagerness

Erik, maybe check whether aztecdancer and Carth are up for playing still? We know that 13ebo and Duplex are here and eager

[carth]

Absolutely! Eager to play!

[13obo]

Yeah, I am fine w this if the slots for the next round will be filled (8). Do we have another reserve apart from kondi? Duplex I've hosted the 2 games w password "Bubblebox".

[Duplex]

K thanks. I bet you'll win.

[13obo]

Great, Duplex joined both the games! However, there is a small issue... My laptop needs a repair on the power supply, I'm bringing it tomorrow and will use the next day service so fingers crossed that it works by Wednesday. However, there's not much time left on this round. Is it possible to extend the round?

[carth]

So who should I play?

[Erik2]

So who should I play?

Create challenges with password aztecdancer1
I'll PM you both as well.

[carth]

Thanks. Will set it up when I get home from work tonight.

I have saved the screenshot successfully but when I try to attach to my post I get a '413 Request Entity Too Large' error - suggesting the image file is too large. It's only 21MB but I compressed it anyway into a zip file but still get same error.

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!

A screenshot measuring 21MB looks like a very, very large file.
A jpg screenshot of the OOB screen should be well under 1MB.

here is what i do to avoid the OoB screenshot thang:
print screen with windows/keyboard
paste into word document (bitmap editor would be better but i don't have a good one)
right click on the picture and save it as a jpeg (this one was 2.2 megs)
post it via upload attachment button on this page (use the place inline button to include in your post's display)
