Why not have Paul F as the 16th player?

SVC can handle any rulings related to Paul's games. For the tree setup maybe SVC can do it as well. Or Paul can order 15 guys and SVC can roll a d20 (or whatever) until he gets a 1-16 which becomes Paul's spot in the tree.

I have ran a few private tournaments as a player with no issues

By Peter Bakija (Bakija) on Sunday, September 14, 2025 - 01:11 pm: Edit

Paul is the judge. Let's let him be the judge, and not put more on SVC's plate.

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Sunday, September 14, 2025 - 08:00 pm: Edit

I can do anything; I cannot do everything (and I need to focus on new products). I'm going to let Paul take care of this until Paul says he cannot handle it. I do encourage him to get it moving. There are still sponsored passes unused so somebody could enter for free. I do not want to start letting people enter one tournament twice or have the judge enter "George Sweeney" and have him forfeit the first game.

Can someone post the list of the 15 in the tournament. So I can find a 16th.

By Stefan Lenfest (Himosan) on Tuesday, September 16, 2025 - 03:58 pm: Edit

Based on Paul's list from 8/31, a couple comments immediately after, and removing Tyler I believe it's:

Peter Bakija
Geoffrey Clark
Daniel Bitseff
Stefan Lenfest
Carl-Magnus Carlsson
Rikk Mascia
David A Zimdars
John C Malis
Bill Schoeller
Gregg Deckhouse
Dana F Madsen
Seth Shimansky
Justin Royter
Ted Fay
Jack Taylor

Email sent out to a few players not signed up for 19 & have played in the past 2 years. That we have one more spot opened.

By Seth Shimansky (Kingzila) on Tuesday, September 23, 2025 - 12:28 am: Edit

I believe Crash&burn joined so we have the 16

By Daniel Bitseff (Cadet_Stimpy) on Tuesday, September 23, 2025 - 12:41 am: Edit

only took 4 months, not bad!

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Tuesday, September 23, 2025 - 09:15 pm: Edit

Crashburn signed up. I Emailed him to ask if has paid the tournament entry fee. And I have not gotten a response.

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Tuesday, September 23, 2025 - 09:28 pm: Edit

Ok. I just checked this topic and it looks like John Rigley has credit to play in the tournament, I will setup the tree tomorrow and post it.

By Geoffrey Clark (Spartan) on Wednesday, September 24, 2025 - 08:13 am: Edit

Great! Now, if I can only remember the ship I selected ...

wow.. I got stimpy in round 1, like the only player in this tourney that has my #, like we have only played each other 10,000 times. LOL, ok then...

You can win

By Eddie E Crutchfield (Librarian101) on Thursday, September 25, 2025 - 02:25 pm: Edit

Justin you think that is interesting, my son and I played X-Wing all the time, we both went to the nationals one year 128 people entered and who do we draw in the first round, each other.

By Ted Fay (Catwhoeatsphoto) on Thursday, September 25, 2025 - 02:25 pm: Edit

And I'm up against BS. Who is one of a handful of players I've never beaten.

OK then! There's a first time for everything! :)

By Ted Fay (Catwhoeatsphoto) on Thursday, September 25, 2025 - 02:26 pm: Edit

Interesting. 4 Klingons and 2 LDR in a 16 player tourney!

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Thursday, September 25, 2025 - 08:16 pm: Edit

Agreed there. I did my best not to have civil wars for the first two rounds

Note: RKR vs. RKE is not a civil war.

By Jack Taylor (Jtaylor) on Thursday, September 25, 2025 - 08:18 pm: Edit

I predict 2 LDR in the final. Not.

By Justin Royter (Metaldog) on Thursday, September 25, 2025 - 09:18 pm: Edit

Eddie what are the odds on that? Did you ask the judge for a pass on that one?? Like a re-roll or something??

By Ted Fay (Catwhoeatsphoto) on Friday, September 26, 2025 - 12:22 pm: Edit

BS and I are starting Game 6 on Monday night at 6:00 pm central

By Carl-Magnus Carlsson (Hardcore) on Friday, September 26, 2025 - 12:53 pm: Edit

Madman and Hardcore, Saturday morning 6am EST
