November ROOT Challenge Thread

[Professoralstad]

The rules for challenges will be updated in the near future. They will be mostly similar to before, but due to some availability issues, the restrictions on who you can challenge may be loosened. It will be determined exactly how challnges will work when the number of people in the tournament is confirmed. I will keep you posted.

In order to issue or accept a challenge, post on this thread, and PM your opponent to set up a time to play. Make sure to check this thread to ensure that your challenge is valid. A valid challenge for a certain week will be listed as "X Challenges Y" under the heading for that week. A challenge that still needs to be accepted will be highlighted in bold. See below for an example.

X Challenges Y--This challenge is valid and still needs to be accepted by Y.
Q Challenges R--This challenge is valid and has been accepted by R.


Week 4 Challenges:
Red Challenges Daniel TS RED
Minister Polarius Challenges adotson
The Guardian Challenges Red
Daniel TS RED Challenges The Warrior
jmhartz Challenges slugfencer
Alex_Olijar Challenges RDT
RTSManiac Challenges ProfA
Professoralstad Challenges Count Fount
Count Fount Challenges Alex_Olijar

Challenge Availability: These are the people(the ones listed by your name in bold) you can challenge this week. Because most pairs of people have played in an official game by now, you are allowed to challenge ANYONE that you haven't played in an official game. This will change throughout the week as challenges are made. I will try to update this daily, but if you have a question on who you can challenge, please PM me or post on the thread.

[Professoralstad]

I'll make mine a mutual challenege with Prof if that is cool.

I know this has been allowed before, but I never actually asked about it. This means we play one game, and whoever wins gets the points right?

Correct

[The Guardian]

Challenge RDT.

[Red Dragon Thorn]

I accept Guardian's Challenge.

[RTSmaniac]

I Challenge Red

I already challenged him. You can challenge me though...

[Professoralstad]

I Challenge Red

RTSManiac is correct. Red has already been challenged this week. At this point, you can no longer make challenges for the week that must be accepted, but if someone accepts a challenge from you, you can get points for it.

[Minister Polarius]

Who can I challenge? I'm paired against RED and I challenged JMHartz last week.

[adotson85]

Who can I challenge? I'm paired against RED and I challenged JMHartz last week.

Then you challenge the next highest ranked player, which would be RTSManiac.

[adotson85]

I challenge Alex Olijar.

Oops. Then I challenge The Guardian.

[Professoralstad]

Who can I challenge? I'm paired against RED and I challenged JMHartz last week.

If you cannot challenge anyone ranked above you, you can challenge one of the two next highest available players. I provided a table on the first post of this thread for reference; I will try to update that as often as possible.

I challenge Alex Olijar.

You are actually paired against Alex for your swiss game this week, so you can't challenge him. The people you can challenge this week are listed in the first post of this thread.
