JOL 2008 Tournament Update
JOL 2008 Tournament Update

Hello All,

After a long delay, deck registration for the JOL* 2008 tournament is
now open. I apologize for my slowness.

*JOL stands for Jyhad Online, and it was created by George Finklang.
It's an incredibly fun way to play VTES asynchronously, and it's quite
robust:

http://deckserver.net/jol3/beta

If you are registered, you should now see games jt2008a, jt2008b, and
jt2008c (complete listing of registered players below.)

*****************************************************
Please register your decks by April 6th, 10:00pm PST.
*****************************************************

The tournament is 3 rounds + Final, and the 3 rounds will be played
simultaneously. You can register different decks for each round, and
if you make the finals, you'll use one of your 3 decks.

If you haven't registered your decks by April 6, I'll assume you're no
longer interested in playing in the tournament, and I'll drop you from
the event.

We *will* be using the Kuta transfer rules. See below. We will be
using the multi-judge system.

The initial 3 rounds will end on August 6th, 11:59pm PST. There will
be no extensions granted. Excessively slow play that causes other
players to have less fun, as determined by the head judge, will be
replaced by an alternate player. Players are expected to check their
games at least twice a day on weekdays, and notify other players in
advance if they will be unable to do so.

If you have questions or concerns, please reply directly to Ira.

Thanks,
Ira


KUTA TRANSFER RULES are just like the normal transfer rules, except:
1) Players get 5 transfers instead of 4.
2) It costs 1 transfer to move a minion (that has counters equal to or
greater than its capacity) from the uncontrolled region to the ready
region.
3) It costs 5 transfers plus 1 pool to move a minion from the top of
the crypt to the uncontrolled region.

Notes:
- On the first turn of the game, Player 1 gets only 1 transfer, Player
2 gets 2, etc., up to 5 transfers for Player 5.

- Rule #2 only applies to bringing minions to the ready region in the
"normal" way. Cards like Tomb of Rameses III, Gather, Chain of
Command, and Web of Knives Recruit don't cost extra transfers.
