Registration for the Dirty Dozen - Round One

18 Jan 2019, 08:29

Welcome to "The Dirty Dozen" of the international CoW Team league

This league is a series of games launched by CoW Support. Every month start a new game, four months lasts one season. The common thread in the league is the ban on the use of gold. This ban is monitored by the support and punished by the game play.

Furthermore, the games in "The Dirty Dozen" differ from normal rounds in CoW due to an extended set of rules

Here is the rule: Rules

These rules are needed to get a regulated and friendly interaction with the other players. Because the struggles in the league are often very bitter and led with great severity.

Note:

As you play in the league, you should be aware that you are playing with players who will seek out and exploit every void in your strategy. A lack of agreement among neighbors and others in the same team, is quickly exploited. The lack of support for a threatened team partner who asks for help is fatal and often leads to their own demise.

Basic rules:

The use of gold is not permitted in league games. (supervised!)
The games of the league are played anonymously.
The players should play fair, the newspaper is subject to certain restrictions.
All rules and the game management can be found in our rules

Schedule:

Registration until all 60 seats have been taken or until 2.2. 6:00 pm UTC.
A conversation will be created in the forum announcing the game ID and password.
Players gradually enter the map and are randomly distributed to the nations.
Game start, the first game of the series starts on 1.2. at 18:00 UTC.
Registered players who do not appear on the map within the first 24 hours after the start of the game will be replaced by reserve players!

lol, better start reading before you wrote. You already talk with the developer of this tournament.
The thing you talking about we did already some years ago. Look here: Clash of Alliances

Great option. Now would be relevant

For alliances there is the alliance world cup which is an official tournament.

As this is a comprehensive tournament it isn't a month to month thing. There is a "season" of play between the groups of alliances, and now the tournament phase is starting. Unfortunately this means that you have to sign up during the summer for the fall start to the season, although we may be able to start the 19-20 season a little earlier.

Brilliant video Kolin17. Excellent. That is exactly what we need.

My recommendation:

Unban Kolin17 immediately and Hire him to make the video for the game's, proper salary.

That was almost perfect. Great minds think alike but you my Russian friend have the brains to make it work.

What exactly are you suggesting? Make a video of your game,and gold use is OK?

When the enemy is driven back, we have failed. When he is cut off, encircled and dispersed, we have succeeded.

I am interested in Making a video of the competition games. Kolin17 has done a brilliant example of what we should work towards.

This has nothing to do with gold use, so i am not sure why you bring this into the conversation. On the Dirty Dozen map. Kolin17 either saw or mistook Ma Clique for using gold. Kolin17 was not using gold. He was winning and playing a very good game. However after he reported what he saw, he was frustrated that the admin was ignoring his complaint so he acted emotionally and rebelled. He has apologised for doing this.

He did not use gold to get to where he got in the game. He used it as a political statement which in hindsight he regrets.

We understand his story.

I am talking not about gold use but i am talking about finding someone who can video the competition games. All Esports thrives when there is an ability to record or stream live play. While this game is far to slow to stream we can record and edit and make a video of the competition. This would greatly improve interest not on in COW in general but also in players getting more involved in the competition games.As there is a historical record of the games played that wil always remain in an archive.

I recommended the Person or persons who undertake this task to review Osprey historical military re enactment videos to get an idea of how the battle scenes can be edited and improved, in fact cow might even glean some of the tech from Osprey into a video format for easier use.

Although I cannot say anything to the gold use of Kolin17, I think it is a great idea to make a video of the competition!

This could be largely extended in the future, but in the beginning it would be better to start small...

@Mr Selfridge: May you link one of the videos you mentioned?

Kolin 17 posted it on the Dirty dozen thread, a few post up from this.

Here is the thread about doing an Admin Video. Someone with full editorial control.
