Tom

Dear all,

1st October today so less than 2 weeks until our next event. So far entrants are |Jerry and me!

I hope that is not all. Any entrants please l;et me know soonest.

Tom

Hi Tom,

Unfortunately I can’t make this one

Paddy

Thanks for letting me know Paddy. Chris Beesley is coming so that makes 3.

Any more - just one would help!!

Tom

So far 3 entrants; me, Chris and Bruce. A nice big victor ludorum score for us all!

Any more takers? At least 1 would be good.

Tom

Tom,

With only 3 or 4 players I think it is unfair on all the other players who have taken part in this year’s tournament for it to count towards the victor de ludorum score.

I cannot play this time or in December, so cannot win. However, there are several other regular players who could win but who will at a major disadvantage as they are unable to play on this occasion.

Bob

A fair point Bob. My view up to now was that it was what it was but I can certainly see what you are saying.

May I assume that others feel the same as Bob? Do let me know.

Tom

Tom,
I agree with Bob who has a very fair & good point.

Thanks Ray. Any dissenting views?

Tom

Results of Round 4

First place Tom 33.5 point
Second Chris 32.5 points
Third Bruce 31.5 points

Only the three of us so we played a round Robin and each of us had a bye. All great games and really close.

Next event December.

Tom

Should have said what our armies were. Chris had Eastern Woodland, Bruce Buccaneer and mine was Colonial Spanish.

Tom

Returning to the VL. How about if I change the calculation so that it based on the number of people beaten per event attended? Would that be OK?

Tom

Please see the Victor Ludorum conversation.
