CCDL - Premiership Winter 2018
« on: November 24, 2018, 11:37:02 AM »
Players and Chosen Expansions

Danisthirty - King & Robber Baron

Jéré - The Phantom

Jungleboy - Mage & Witch

Leven - Inns & Cathedrals

MrNumbers - Abbey & Mayor

Xanderx12 - Princess & Dragon

Fixtures

Each player is to play a single two-person game of Carcassonne using JCloisterZone against each of the other players in the division. The starting date will be 1st December 2018 and all games must be played and the results posted on this thread before midnight GMT on Friday 16th February 2019. The starting player in each case will be chosen at random.

The tile set for each game will consist of the base game and each of the competitors' chosen expansions, i.e. two expansions are to be used in every match.

The Division

As a result of each match, each player will be awarded league points according to the following rules:-

Most game points for roads – 1 point
Most game points for cities – 1 point
Most game points for cloisters – 1 point
Most game points for farms – 1 point
Most game points overall (formerly referred to as 'a win') – 1 point
Tying any of the above with opponent – 0.5 points

This means that all matches have 5 points available to be distributed to the two players.

A league table with points gained from matches played will be maintained and regularly posted to this thread by the tournament organiser.

The top ranked two players after all matches have been played will be declared 'Champion' and 'Runner-up' respectively. The lowest ranked two players will be eligible for relegation.

In addition to the Champion and Runner-up, the following will be awarded:-

The Brave Brigand – the player with the most league points for roads
The Knoble Knight – the player with the most league points for cities
The Crafty Cleric – the player with the most league points for cloisters
The Fruitful Farmer – the player with the most league points for farms
The Triumphant Tiler – the player with the most league points for winning games

After each match, it is the winner's responsibility to ensure that the result is posted to this thread clearly showing the points awarded separately for Roads, Cloisters, Cities and Farms.

The full rules have been attached for you all to read at your leisure.

Please do not start playing league matches until 1st December, but it would be in all players' interests to try out a few pre-season matches as in my Freshers' Week post earlier today. http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=4138.0

Hi Guys! Just to let you know that Rosco, Chooselife, Halfling, Rich_The_Fish and myself all have experience with the new points system in this tournament, and it might be a good idea if you were to use us for your pre-season friendlies.

Thanks again Steve for setting this up. I'm keen to play some practice games, especially since I haven't actually played Carcassonne in ages. Actually I've only ever played Carcassonne three times and, amazingly, all three games resulted in victories over danisthirty - two practice games in 2014 and the Ark of the Covenant showdown.

At the moment organising games is a bit difficult while I'm travelling (re: Internet access, timing etc). I'm three hours behind UK time right now, but by Friday it'll be back down to two hours, so maybe this weekend or next week it might be easier to arrange a game.

I think you're forgetting this game. Regrettably it was yet another victory over me for you, but you only beat Rosco and B1nder thanks to the fact that I was determined to get my barn onto Rosco's barn farm even if that meant dragging your rubbishy barn along too...

I think you're forgetting....

THIS GAME:
Next up was Carcassonne, I rarely get to play 4-player and it's nice to see such a busy board.  I was late to the scoretrack, but it was a close game as you'll see.

Oh, and this one...



(before calculating our final scores Nick and I were still on the same square and I'd successfully resisted a delicious burger that had been sitting next to me for at least 15 minutes)

So, the final scores were:

Dan :blue-meeple: (87)
Nick :green-meeple: (75)
Tom :yellow-meeple: (64)

That one doesn't count as I was thrown off by the 70-point scoreboard.

That was a good burger.... and at least you didn't need to wait 45minutes for a cookie to arrive at our table on a plate.

Sorry "jungleoy" (if that is your real name), but I only do unfriendly games. :P

Yo dudes!

We've officially started and there haven't been any games yet despite the fact that we're all in the premiership and so should be being paid at least €100m per game. So... we're visiting the Harry Potter studios this afternoon, but Wednesday, Thursday or Friday are looking good for a game at this end if anyone else is free then?

Let's get the premiership underway! 8) :(y)

Dan, your sponsorship from the Trump University was supposed to be a closely guarded secret. I now have a long list of players asking why they are not being paid appearance money.

Don't worry the Steve. I can fix it. Nobody will know a thing...
