world cup of risk !!!!!!!

Postby zeus111 on Sun Nov 26, 2017 8:25 pm

Attention all players: It's time to determine what country can hold the title of the best risk team in the CC world. Brought to you by Zeus111 and groovysmurf.

Map: World 2.1
Settings: To be voted on upon teams filling

Each country will have a team captain as we're implementing a bad dice clause (teams will post consistently bad rolls in chat with a possible rematch to be made upon review). The goal is to try and make this as fair as possible. Games will be tournament style so foes are not an issue and will be team vs team.

If we have a lot of members that wish to join for a country, a small tournament will be held for each to determine who will represent their country. Countries with fewer members may opt to join with other lower represented countries from the same continent.

We're in the beginning stages of this so are posting here to see how many may be interested. Let's see what country can claim the title of World's Best!

It is possible yes, however, definition of country and such needs to made clearer. To add to that I don't particularily like to play against clan mates (which I have pointed out to smurf) this would for sure happen....I would rather build a clan mates score than deplete it or visa versa. You both are on to an idea just not for me as it goes against some values I hold....smurf likes to beat friends as I do not.

sounds like there'll be some qualifying matches to decide the more populous countries participants if this thing actually gets off the ground. i wonder why no one's thought of something like this until now... :-k

I seem to remember something like this being suggested three or four years ago and it didn't get off the ground as far as I recall. But, as I get older I seem to recall a lot of things that may or may not be real or imagined. Anyway, if it gets off the ground I may be interested.

Thats a great idea Zeus.
Have one question to confirm - our country is the country we live in (where our IP address usually shows)
Many people like me live in one country (Japan) but are citizens of another (USA) I am happy to represent the country I live in though - Japan. Count me in as a team captain. As Captain - I contact the others in my country then?

Thanks all for the replies!
Like we said, this is still in the early stages, but we feel this will be a lot of fun. We're going to wait 24 hours to see the responses to this post before replying again. I can say that the flag on your wall will dictate what country you are eligible to join. A minimum of 4 players and maximum of 16 will make a team. We're using a variety of settings so that players who thrive on one setting and not another will still be able to play for their country without feeling like they are having to adjust their game play.

Nice idea fellas. I'm sure something like this was tried (or mooted) years ago as I recall being a representative of Hong Kong.

So yeah, count me in as Captain for Macau. I'm maybe the only player in this enclave so may have to be combined with Hong Kong across the water (and we are both Special Admin Regions of the PRC).

Cheers
