February Tournament: Limited Shop

[Salbei]

Well it is highly unlikely but in theory you could gain up to 12 points per missing report.Along with a low score for the current #1 it would be possible.

The Audio de-syncs for some unknown reason though.

I had the same problem when I made some of my videos, but I thought it was because my computer was old as shit and was lagging.

Also, I noticed your magic game has a lot of sounds that mine doesn't; was there some update that included all those? It's not really a big deal since 99% of the time I play with my speakers off anyway; I'm just curious.

I didn't get Aswang Jaguar's deck in the playlists download, and thought he had dropped.

Could you give me a link for the full playlist so I can play those games?

Yeah it was a bit confusing i have to admit.

I´m currently uploading my Magic Folder to my webspace (so new players could just extract it and try out the latest Patch).Unfortunately my Artwork seems to be out of date.Had to cut it anyway cause my webspace is full.Would appreciate it if anyone could upload the complete Artwork folders.

After my upload is done i will upload my sound folder.I´ve customized almost every sound in there, so make sure you backup your old one in case you don´t like it.

Also changed the "picture" of my player-avatar as you might have noticed, was not that creative there^^

Wait an hour or two till the upload is complete. This should be the link then.(added it to the upload list)

I will update the summary in roughly 13 hours from now. Incomplete Group reports won´t count. Hope that is enough time for Stroggoii and 240sxforever to finish Group C.

[aww1979]

Finished the side event. I had 42 points. (it's recorded in the other thread) I have no idea if that's good or not, but I had two game losses, so that seems really bad to me.

[Aswan jaguar]

I made a list of all that people bought in February store tournament but I was logged out in the meantime and when I tried to submit it said I had to log in,foolishly I did and lost it.

So,mostly bought cards only:


LAND : 1)Scrubland = 9
2)Terramorphic Expanse = 8
3)Savannah = 6

CREATURES: 1)Soul Warden = 14
2)Emeria Angel = 8
3)Watchwolf = 5

ENCHANTMENTS-SORCERY : 1)Oblivion Ring = 11
2)Bitterblossom = 9
3)Worship = 7

INSTANTS: 1) Path to Exile = 14
2) Doom Blade = 5

ARTIFACTS: 1)Elixir of Immortality = 7
2)Crystal Ball = 3

PLAINSWALKERS: 1)Ajani Goldmane = 4


Most common buys :Soul Warden and Path to Exile 14 each.

[Salbei]

Ehm Stroggoii you only played 4 matches for Group C.
You´ve missed both "rematches" where Aswan jaguar is the AI.
Hope you read this in time.

I really appreciate that both of you complete (or tried to) GroupC in time.I´ll update the summary in ~3 hours.

---
Just read the rest of Awws Side event report.I was afraid that some matches will get "annoying" because you have to wait for the AI to do stuff. Hope it wasn´t that bad and enjoyable overall.

---
Yeah, a lot of White cards saw play.Thanks for your effort, it is quite interesting to see the tendencies for eventual future lists.
If you check the Tournament Idea topic then you will see some nice changes for further tournaments. One idea was to submit 2 decks (one for humans to play and one for the AI). I am sure the other colors (especially blue) would have seen more play in the human decks.
Well this is the first time we are playing a tournament with the shop system and i would still say the list was a success.

OT:
Has anyone tested the customized sound yet ?
I´ve changed almost every game sound there is (i think just the shuffle sound is the same).Funny thing is i play with those for so long that i don´t realize those got changed and when i see the game at a friends pc i always get confused by the "old" sounds

One thing about windows 7 i really like is that you got a "mixer" to adjust the sound of everything (you can turn down the game sounds for Magic and turn up the sound of the movie you are watching for example).Really love that feature and use it a lot.

Updated the summary at the report topic. (18.30)
Looks like Aswan jaguar going to end up 2nd. (57-3 = 54 points)
And Juzamjedi 1st (65 points).That is a 11 point difference.
Aswan Jaguar lost a game 0-2 in one of Stroggoii´s report so it is impossible to end 1st.

3-0 Human 5 / AI O
3-1 Human 4 / AI 1
3-2 Human 3 / AI 2
2-3 Human 2 / AI 3
1-3 Human 1 / AI 4
0-3 Human 0 / AI 5

Round 2 ends Feb 16 (1 day per match)
Might end earlier when the majority of reports are in.

[Salbei]

Group D was very close for me ( 6-4) so i got really surprised by Group E (240sxforever vs Stroggoii).

I finished Group E today and feel horrible about it.
The Videos are currently getting uploaded. Was a very clear 9-1 blowout.Sorry man.
I clearly was not on top of my game when i played those matches (made a couple misplays).Since i played the complete group today i hope you don´t mind.Should have taken a break before those games :/

It is very interesting to read the reports for the other games.Matches that felt "easy" for me got losses there and vice versa.Guess i´m not the only unlucky person around

As soon as some more people report for Group F i will do another mini-summary to see who is ahead in points etc.

[aww1979]

I'll try to have the games done by the 16th, even though I got knocked out in round 1.

Let me know if you need a day more. We are still ahead of the schedule anyway.

Offtopic:
I could need some testers for the SCV (Signature).
Especially reports for missing/wrong Artwork are welcome.
Any OS-related issues (Do you need to activate compatibility mode or anything else?)

This is supposed to be a very easy way to "install" Manalink - pretty much just unpack and play.Doesn´t leave much room for errors
Just a temporary solution until we could setup a TortoiseSVN repository somewhere.

Using TortoiseSVN would be a great thing overall. No more Artwork issues - always got the latest version available and new users just have to read a very basic Tutorial and are set.

Group D seems to be clear.
Group E is very close.
Group F seems to be clear.

7 people have reported so far. I´ll play group F tomorrow.
Once again, nice job with the quick reports!
The "winners" of Group1 (always the first one in the Group) have dominated once again.Only Group E is actually a close matchup as it seems.

[Cognis]

I'll try to play group E since it's close but I finally started working so I don't have as much free time as I had.

[Salbei]

Your report didn´t change anything, but thanks for playing. The Group is still at a point where anybody could take it.
Everyone else remember that Round2 ends today (it is actually Feb16 for me now^^).Roughly 20hours left for reports.If you can´t play all matches please try to play at least Group E since it is really close there.

I´m currently uploading my Group F games. Made a couple stupid mistakes in there. Activated Ajani and then played a Creature etc. mostly because there is no cancel option.Juzamjedi came out slightly ahead because of one AI win.
Hope Youtube doesn´t b*tch about the music in the background, i forgot to turn it off.

-> edit
Whoah uploading took very long this time (Youtube maintainance).
Here is the Playlist for Group F.

I might have to remove those vids because of copyright BS.
-> edit
Removed the Videos.Youtube blows.

[aww1979]

I'm still planning to play the games either later tonight or tomorrow. I just finished up the MRD tournament first since it was older.
