Post subject: | A NEW MASTER OF EUROPE!!! |
Gentlemen: The gods of war have spoken... <font color="red"><font size="4"><b>Konstantin Koryakov</b></font id="size4"></font id="red"> of the Russian Army has emerged victorious in the final match of the NWC's 2005-2996 Master of Europe III tournament. Three cheers for Gen. Koryakov... Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah! General Koryakov defeated <b><font size="3"><font color="yellow">Eugene Gulyaev</font id="yellow"></font id="size3"></b>, also of the Russian Army, in a HPS Waterloo scenario. General Koryakov joins Marechals Jeff Bardon and Tomasz Nowacki as champions in the Master of Europe Tournament. Ooops. Seems I erased my own post; but in response to some of the posts below... Seeding for the tournament has always been completley random -- just like in the World Cup football tournament. Choosing which side one commands is also random. If two powerful players meet in the first round then ... so what? Only one player will be left at the end. And I tend to think that the tournament has certainly selected some great champions. |

Thank You, Gentlemen! But I must say there are many excelent players in NWC who could to get title Master of Europe or take second or third place in this tournament. Regrettably some of them were met with strong enemy in the first round. As example - General-mayor Martin Butas (Rez.Korpus of Russian Army) - I had very hard and interesting game with him in first round. What I mean? - I think we necessary to revise the principle of the shaping pair in this important tournament. No accidents but only the rating of the victories (the correlation of the victories and defeats). And in the beginning of tournament the most strong player will meets with the most weak.. etc. (but this is special theme and presently shall not be about it in detail) And Many Thanks to managers and creators of the scenaries for MOE 3. All battle was different but all was balanced and interesting! And the tournament MOE 3ended and Long Live the next tournament MOE 4!

I agree with Konstantin that we should prevent meeting of strong players in begining rounds of the tournament. Schema should be similar to ATP tennis tournaments where we have seeded and unseeded players, and seeded players can meet each other only in final stages of a tournament. <b>general-feldmarshal Eugene Gulyaev RA Chief of Staff Leib-Gvardii Semenovskij Polk Club Secretary </b> ![]() |
