I beat TSE 5-4 in an unbelievably epic game in which I drew SoG on my last attack. He didn't play SoG either. Both of us made some clutch plays during the game. Awesome game.

This was an absolute epic game and was well played by both, just didn't get 6 of my best cards that would have won it 1 round earlier! but alas this was an amazing game!

New Rankings and Matchups for Week 3 posted!
Since our RedemptionMetaGaming hosts happen to be paired up this week, I'd like to see them film this official game to release as a webisode (perhaps right after this ROOT finishes if they don't want to spoil their decks).

We actually discussed the possibility of broadcasting the game live before this tournament started (we kinda assumed we'd play each other eventually). I'll talk with Olijar and we'll see if we can work something out.

That sounds cool! By the way how's that I/J game you were going to film coming?

It's filmed. We had a big delay because westy was on vacation.

Glad to hear it. I'm hoping it will be available on YouTube before the cards actually come out :)

Hey, if this is too late my apologies, but I figured RTSM would contact you. He deserves ghost points last week because I was in Vegas most of the week, and only had one day that I was available. It was through no fault of his that we didn't get a game in.
Title: Re: 2013 May/Jun ROOT
Post by: Prof Underwood on June 04, 2013, 04:30:15 PM
Unfortunately it is too late at this point. It'd be great to give him the points since you both agree on it, but there have been times in the past when people haven't let me know until after the deadline, and I have to stay consistent.
Hopefully you'll get your game in this week :)

This game not played stuff is goofy. Why not just award based on activity like we used to instead of draws?

I still award points based on activity as long as people let me know about it by the deadline. The problem here was that neither person posted anything on the thread or let me know by PM until too late.

Well, after a terrible experience with Google Hangout's screen share, we have our game uploaded to Youtube.
ROOT Game - Westy v Alex (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8v7TsoOr88#ws)
Also, it was asked if my RTS was always like that, which it is not. I'm really not sure why it does that when I screen share my RTS. I can record a video and then screen share the playback (which is how we add additional commentary after the game), but this doesn't work for whatever reason (it's the same way on Skype too...perhaps it's Wine?)

It's telling me that the video was removed by the user.

I probably ghosted RTS so give him points. Don't bother assigning me a match this week. I'd be low anyway, so easier for me not to push my schedule. Thanks!

Hey, I won't be able to play my game this week I realized because I'm leaving on vacation tomorrow very early. If they haven't played already, is there anyway that Drrek can move up and play TSE so that both Red and TSE aren't left with no game? If not possible then TSE can just have the points for our game since I can't play.

Since it's at the bottom of the standings anyway, I would be fine with (Drrek playing TSE) and (Red playing jbeers). Alternatively Drrek could stay in his game with Red, and TSE could just play jbeers (assuming he's even back from his honeymoon). Or we could just leave things the way they are. I'll let you guys work that out, and just report whatever scores you end up with :)

I will let my potential opponents decide who wants to play their game with me this week. No biggie, just post here...

Type 2 win over MitchRobStew 7-1 The best part of our game was getting to actually talk over skype and talk some strategy with my fellow Redemption player.

For sure man good time. Though I think I got 3 when I drew into NJ on my last turn. Its the same differential for ROOT scoring anyway.
