I'm very much looking forward to the Rabid vs RTT match, which (I think) will determine if Sweeden or Germany advances.

Can't tell you how much this is true for me as well. :)

If Rabid wins 4-2, Sweden and Germany won exactly the same number of games (Hope I did't miscount). What would happen in this scenario? (Nothing found in rules)

I think it's some kind of second tiebreaker. Then it's a coinflip.

This is tense!

It should be Germany, because they won the direct match, shouldn't it?

Match points count more than game points. So, if I count correctly, it's pretty simple. RTT has to tie for Germany to go to the semis. If Rabid wins, Sweden proceeds. UK is last no matter what.

PS: How can I move this discussion into the discussion thread?

I don't know how to do that. I guess I don't have the rights for that. At least I can't find anything like that.

Eevee and SheCantSayNo tie 3-3

http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131129/log.505d732a51c359e6597efeb8.1385752862720.txt
I miraculously win a rebuild game! I opted for an early young witch opposed to SCSN's late sea hag, and generally went more enginey with oasis's and menageries against mostly a money deck. Threepile on oasis's, curses and duchies.

http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131129/log.505d732a51c359e6597efeb8.1385754505041.txt
I'm not sure about my decision to upgrade my peddlers to platinums so aggressively, but an early lead just snowballs so decisively on a board like this. I probably got super lucky here.

http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131129/log.505d732a51c359e6597efeb8.1385754990912.txt
A girl is talking to me in facebook when the game starts and I miss rebuild being on the board - news flash going hermit-igg against rebuild isn't very great. Yay I play well.

http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131129/log.505d732a51c359e6597efeb8.1385755739559.txt
A fun engine board, SCSN builds a better deck that wins.

http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131129/log.505d732a51c359e6597efeb8.1385756918691.txt
Another fun engine board, I don't know why my deck got so much better but it did and I won.

http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131129/log.505d732a51c359e6597efeb8.1385757836498.txt
I missclicked in a ridiculous fashion, and it snowballed pretty badly.


There was one very fun game where I went hunting party-crossroads-bridge against SCNS's apothecary-black market - ??? where I really would have wanted to see what he was planning, but goko froze. Dominion is a fun game, and drawing against such a strong opponent is definitely an overperformance from me but I basically gave two games away by missclicking and missing the only important card on the board, so can't really be that proud of how I played.

rene kuroi (japan A) defeats zporiri (usa B) 3.5-2.5. i feel like i lost 2 of these games because of possession :( thought i definitely could've won this series, especially after leading 2.5-1.5 with 2 games remaining. thanks for the games rene kuroi!

zporiri wins 35-24
http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131130/log.5132d720e4b07f4f52105404.1385828245319.txt
he outplayed me at the beginning but i thought his mid and late game were poor. he greened WAY too early-with a 3-1 GM edge, no reason to green when he did, which gave me life.

rene kuroi wins 19-6
http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131130/log.5132d720e4b07f4f52105404.1385829414815.txt
he uses possession and my better deck to win. i was trying to get a lot of nobles and sneak a 3 pile ending, but he did that after he double possessed me, so i never got the chance.

zporiri wins 22-16
http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131130/log.5132d720e4b07f4f52105404.1385830199995.txt
i win the highway+market battle. no draw in this game but it didnt matter, was still able to sneak out some provinces and end the game by draining markets.

tie 38-38
http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131130/log.5132d720e4b07f4f52105404.1385830776688.txt
he greened early and i was happy to sneak a tie out with a good way to use +buys to get anything more than 7 points a turn

rene kuroi wins 36-19
http://dom.retrobox.eu/?/20131130/log.5132d720e4b07f4f52105404.1385831591740.txt
lost this one to horrible shuffle luck. my strategy was going to be the same as his but never could get around to getting labs.

rene kuroi wins 67-53
for some reason i was thinking baker was a good counter to possession and loaded up on them instead of hunting parties. woops lol. i had a big goons advantage early but it didnt matter.

USA B vs. Japan A, seat 4

AdamH 4, retlet 2

So the fifth game, retlet said he had treasures in hand to play and misclicked on the last turn. $3 more would have made him win the game instead of me, which affects the outcome of the match. Since a win here for me means USA B will beat Japan A and the stakes are so high, and it comes down to that misclick, my first inclination is to offer retlet another game to replace that because I feel terrible for all this happening on a misclick, but we should see more results and I should discuss it with the rest of my team (and Qvist, and retlet) before making such a call.

Videos and write-up will be up eventually. I'm having some trouble with my video editing software so sorry if there's a delay.

You let us down, Rabid! You have invoked the wrath of the swedes!

Seriously though, the best of luck to Germany in the rest of the tournament!

Tough call. Let me think about it.

I am in no position to say anything and I'm fine with whatever decision you make, but I think that players should be allowed to replay any of their games for any reason, as long as they both agree on it. Of course, this isn't in the rules and changing the rules after the tournament has already started is slightly questionable, but:

1) It's obviously an improvement with no drawbacks
2) Even if it's not in the rules, people can do it anyway: just don't post the log from the original game, and if anyone is bothered enough to check from drunkensailor, they can claim that the one game whose log was not posted was just a casual game for fun in between the tournament games (maybe that's a little weird, but it's not prohibited, and there can be reasons why people would want to play a game with no pressure in between the "serious" games).

So I talked it over with my team mates; it doesn't make much sense to delay the tournament over this. It's really unfortunate but it's not only my tournament life at stake -- it's my entire team's as well. I will continue to feel bad that it was potentially a misclick (plus some other good luck for me) that resulted in us advancing but a win is a win and that's the way it went down.

Sorry for the waffling, everybody.

Alright, I definitely don't force a rematch here. If it would have been Goko's fault, it would be a totally different story. I hope retlet doesn't feel to bad about this. Misclicks happen all the time and I for myself have lost a couple of matches only because of misclicks or miscounting. Cheer up, it's still only a game.
