the winner getting an automatic entry into the 2020 World Cup (if they don't already have one).

Even better, the top 4 players get an automatic entry if we get more than 20 participants.  So sayeth the World Cup Organizer.

Edit:  If we get to 40, the top 8 get an automatic entry.

 

I want to sign up

Its a good thing I'm an Impartial judge...  Because, I admit...  I want to see Biggs PreQualify for his Own Tournament.

Well, first off I'm too much of a gimmick user to ever hit top 4 in a Vassal Tournament.

Secondly, I don't count towards top 4 for purposes of prequalification if I do make it (#5 would get my spot).

[RealVeers 206]

Ah well, count me in!

[Angry Ewok 54]

I would like to play

I'll sign up, am very excited to hear the decision regarding missing new obstacles in VASSAL.
Could there be a Vassal Update incoming?

Cheers

Curious how folks are handling the RitR cards at the moment?

It's at this point that I need to register my usual complaint: It isn't Autumn. At least not everywhere.

Sounds good see if I can get there. I'll have time thursday to mess with it. Guess I need to get into the discord server too.

There will not, a fair point brought up before is not wanting to limit anyones chances from any region of making the cut. By having only certain regions play each other, you reduce their overall chance of actually making the top cut as a whole.

Ok folks, I've thought a lot about the new RitR obstacles and what to do about it. By and large, it comes down to three choices that we can take.
1. Don't allow any of the new RitR objectives to be played (Boring!)
2. Don't allow any objectives with the new obstacles to be played (Not so boring)
3. Allow any objective to be played, just use current obstacles as stand ins for the new obstacles. (Spicy!)
Station as the Grav Shift
One type of the asteroids for the Exogorths
Dust field for the purrgils.
Mark these new obstacles with a "round" token to know that they are not the usual obstacles and thus will not conflict with other types of tokens found on the play area. 

It didn't feel right to leave this up to me to decide, so I'm posting up a form for folks to vote on which option they would like to see.
https://forms.gle/5VZQoKCY2FbboYNk7

This vote will close Oct 9th.

Ummm...why not just update the VASSAL module?  What prevents that?  I've done work on a few, it's not a huge effort to just add things to an established module...
