Two matches... One vs. one -- one normal game and one with the same exact map but with the sides reversed. It is one match, first person to win a game wins the match.

Quinns, surely, as it is the same game, it should work as follows:

Race to 2. If 1 and 1, goes to turn countback. Fastest winner gets the win.

You have a good point here, redbull. It makes sense to me. So then, Dual Duel Format = Two separate games but only ONE challenge match. This "dual duel" type of format will complete much faster then. What do the rest of you think about this?

Okay...

Match A: Mr X defeats Mr. Y--- 109 turns
Match B: Mr. Y defeats Mr. X--- 87 turns.

Mr. Y wins the Challenge, as his victory was completed faster than Mr. X completed his.

Also the above would show true winner, as the have both started on the same terrain, and have had the same oppurtunity to use the same resources.

I'd like to challenge somebody higher than me on the chart, except Hatschy because we already have a game going. Any takers?

Would like to join a game or start a new one. Need someone with patience as this is my first. Some coaching about ettiquette and functionality would be appreciated as well.

Welcome, jodeinla. Read the lead post to this thread about the format. If you still want to be part of this challenge group, state your BAID, and then you can challenge up to three above your starting position. I'm sure there are those here that would help you out with your first game!

Updated to Deity, Milamber. It doesn't matter if you use ruins or not in challenge matches. It is just "recommended" not to use them because of the extra luck factor it adds. (Some like that factor though, so for those who do, leave the ruins in.)

We can play again if you want, but the new game wont be a SuperLeague game 'cos I already play my 3 1vs1, so the game will be only for this thread.

Just make a game and send turn 0 to me, if you want you can turn ruins off so I wont be soo lucky this time

To remove ruins (before you start the game) ---

The game starter must change the...

ctp_data\default\gamedata\const.txt

RUINS_CHANCE_PER_BOX --- set it to 0.0.
