4 player game
Bobby Ohms asked me about this -- 4 player free for all. Chances are slim it would ever finish lol, but if you do manage to finish it this is how it gets rated:
2nd place would report a win to the 3rd place (reporting loss)
1st place would report a win to 4th place (reporting loss)
So its almost like a 2 vs 2, but the diff is that the 1st place would email me the details as well, and get a 20pt bonus.

That sounds like an intresting proposal. I'd be happy to join the fray!
Still if we want to try something like this we're going to have to speed up the game one way or another, else we might spend hours on it and still not finish it :/

yeah i was the one who sent the e-mail to lord bobby ohms about the challenge. got 2 up for it already, we just need the last person i e-mailed to say yes.
i suggested that 1st place chouse choose himself who he wanted the win to be against, but if these are the rules then we'll stick to em good
while im at it, can you delete that report thats a win against me, because he made a mistake, and he wont reply to his e-mails. ive sent e-mails in every direction about this (including the ones listed on the dispute page) and they dont even listen i swear. do you organise this
sorry for the off topic, but every e-mail i send to the "system" is ignored, and never replyd to. it is beggining to get frustrating that ima get this "unreported loss" and honor taken away from me because someone ELSE makes a mistake and put the wrong report in. i guess if you dont like someone, you can bring down their honor by reporting a win against them, and then ignoring e-mails
i dont like that aspect of the system. can anyone help?
this is the last place i could even think of mentioning.

hey scooter, why don't you email me admin at toheroes.com --- I take care of the unreported games most of the time.
I'm kind of interested in a 4 player game -- though its one of those things that I agree -- we would want to finish in one sitting. To continue on a 4 player game is quite unlikely.

True, but I'm a little bit confused. Do you guys already have 4 players or were you still looking for some?

4 player game...
Hey,
- Count me in ( weekends ). And if we do 2 min turns it should be okay, atleast from my point of view.

this is the e-mail i sent to them
Quote: hello all
i have messaged you 3 (lord bobby ohms, Valentin and Betruger) because in your records you all have frequent plays of subterranian treasures.
i am asking if you all want to play a 4 player free for all on Subterranian treasures, and the rules will go as follows.
- all players will report the FINAL WINNER as the ToH member they lost to, despite who eliminated them in game.
- the FINAL winner will report a win against all 3 opponents
its a way to get three ToH wins at once (or one loss), but a 1 in 4 chance of getting those wins. (c'mon, take the gamble)
despite a player being eliminated early in the game, he does NOT have to report a loss to the player that defeated him, but rather to the overall winner of the game
the game of course will not all be played in 1 session, unless you dont know what sleep is.
suggestions for game
- no time limit (lord bobby ohms likes to fight his battles)
- quick battles on
- no ghost mode
- no dynamic battles
i suggest that we play between 5-8 hours every weekend (or any time we can get together). (but i can usually fit in 12 myself, but not everyone is as stupid as me)
please return me an e-mail with your response, even if the answer is no, because i would really look forward to this game, and would like to know if it is at all possible
all 3 of you must participate for this to work, because in a 3 player free for all, when 2 fight, it automatically means victory for the guy doing nothing.
please consider this, after all, it can be a side project and you can play other games in between.
I will be controlling the saved games, unless anyone has any objections (which i hope they do), and i have a preferance to being the color blue (i do that a lot) so i would rather someone else controlling the saves on that account
looking forward to your replies
scotty (p.s. i will be taking dungeon and sinitar. If someone else has this preferance, then we will both select random for heroes, and let the computer descide. This goes for any other players with the same preferance)
so that should explain all
1 of them is still yet to reply though, but the other 2 had said yes, 1 being lord bobby ohms, BUT he wants to play AFTER the map is made more fair for each player.
but seeing as its been about a week and we still havent heard a reply from 3rd guy, i guess we should start lookin for another.

I think that's a bit off for a FFA why should the winner get all 3? what if player 2 beats out 3 and 4 weakening himself enough for player 1 to mop up.Plus the winner gets a 20 pt bonus I think the 3rd out should get some recognition as Vesuvious stated.
Kick the tires and light the fires!!!

yeah but that e-mail was sent out as a suggestion for the rules, rather than making them. veris already outlined what the rules would be, i was just showing people the e-mail that got the idea started and suggested some rules, which weren't apropriate. but i see how you may get confused as this post can be complicated to people who didnt go through the process of what actually happened.
