• If you, as challenger, want to increase the likelihood of getting a reply or speeding up the process, you may also want to consider writing a PM (or a Steam/Discord/Slack chat) to the challenged player.

Hi Andréas,

I suggest making this mandatory. I for one don't have time to carefully read the main threads regularly just to see if someone has challenged me.

Yes, will do that shortly, as part of an upcoming update of the rules, when we will also introduce a simple scoring system. Stay tuned.

Effective immediately the following three changes to the rules will be implemented

1. All challenges to be posted in this thread as well as sent to the challenged player through PM. However, the challenged player still always to respond to challenge in this thread as a reply to the challenger's post (using the REPLY WITH QUOTE button).

2. No adjustments to force points anymore, i.e., all games will be 1600 FP for challenger and 1600 FP for challenged player.

3. A scoring system allocating points per game will determine the players' places in the table (replacing the direct switching due to game results), applicable on all games not yet concluded (i.e., including future games as well as currently active* games):

If 1-place difference between challenger and challenged player:
+25 for win, -5 for draw, and -20 for loss for lower placed player.
+25 for win, -5 for draw, and -20 for loss for higher placed player.

If 2-place difference between challenger and challenged player:
+30 for win, -5 for draw, and -15 for loss for lower placed player.
+20 for win, -5 for draw, and -25 for loss for higher placed player.

If 3-place difference between challenger and challenged player:
+35 for win, -5 for draw, and -10 for loss for lower placed player.
+15 for win, -5 for draw, and -30 for loss for higher placed player.

Each player will now be allocated a number of points that depends on his current place in the table, with the lowest placed player starting at 0 points and with players above be allocated 10 points per place difference.

Hopefully change #3 above (and possibly #2 as well) will incentivise players to challenge downwards as well.

* I realise this may be unfair to some players, but I have to draw the line somewhere at some point in time and this is after all a league just for fun and not to be taken competitively.

Please note that the two players still exchange armies with each other (independent of the game's result); each getting the other player's army.

That is correct, we are playing a game currently. Thanks for the follow up and best of wishes

Excellent and pw = egl500

Deeter (Frankish) defeats imatson2527 (Anglo-Saxon) 54-21. A classic clash of smelly barbarians. His smelled worse, but a fun battle nonetheless.
