I'd support the comment of Luc about the inequal strength of teams that may be in final. Building your team was clearly dependent on your TTR network.


If there's an agreement of both teams, then fine.

PS : Any news about tie-breaker ?

In tikipedia, it is said HOT is already 1st in the standings of our group. Can someone please explain me why ? First tie-breaker = head to head : does that take into account the number of games won, or just only the clashes results ? Thx in advance !

OK I will undertake to answer this question now.
1. I do not know why HOT is listed first, but tie breaker refers to rule 8.3 "8.3 To decide upon ranking for the Knockout stage, the order of tiebreakers is as follows: head-to-head record; number of clashes won; number of matches won; number of games won less the number of games lost."

So in this case: if head to head = 1 to 1,
then number of clashes won (in group); = 3-3
then number of matches won (in group); = not known yet, still one match to play.

Note: these tiebreakers (after first head to head note) have to refer to whole in group because it is possible there would be a 3 way tie or even in future a 4 way tie.

Moreover, number of matches won is either 7.5, 8 or 8.5 to 7 in HOT's favor, depending on the last open match.

Always glad to be of help

F4 - G70

womble vs RMarkes

3 - 0

70* - 67 (blocking festival - Rui killed my Van Mon - I managed to get SSM Okla done and get longest. He missed BO MI and a 2nd east tic)
118 - 104* (SSM Okla & Kan Hou vs. SE LA and Port Phoe...better end due to longest for me - Rui draws on last turn but only finds Denv Paso, which he does not have)
133* - 127 (Van Mon Port Phoe & longest vs. Port Nash, LA Chic and Denv Pitts)

If Rui claims to be unlucky...he has a good reason. He did not really have a chance. Sometimes the game is just against you. The result looks much clearer than the games were.

Thanks for the games!

We see each other when you are at home
