Did Patrick @Cutter9999 get knocked out of it in that last round?

Sloane QF/Demo/3xGoz, last I heard he was up there.

He had 11th with 27 and 533

Ackbar farming fleet won, it's literally the worst thing about playing Armada right now and people should feel ashamed of themselves for playing that garbage. I didn't play against it and I'm still grumpy in sympathy with all of his miserable opponents. The guy himself seemed nice enough, but that fleet archetype is an abomination.

Otherwise, everything went well, my opponents were all nice, the TO provided food and snacks, the prize support was good, etc. 38 people were there, I took 7th and went 3-1. 4 Raiders for the win!

Not sure about 4th place, but third was 2xComms net flotilla and 3x AFmk2Bs with Gunnery Team and TRC. Ackbar list.

To second Snipafist: Tourney was run well and they brought in a solid breakfast and lunch. When food from lunch ran low, they went and got more

Great last game, @Church14 . I just wish I had gone with the least risky move and let a speed zero Yavaris try to survive 5 reds. It would have given me 3rd place assuming the odds bore out. Thank you for showing me how I made people feel all day with my own FCT shenanigans. Double Peltas forever!

@geek19 has all the fleet lists, will get them to @Baltanok in a day or two. 3rd was one of our Fair Game guys, he's good with old school Ackbar gun lines and breaks the conga well, which often catches people by surprise. The TRCs are an unconventional choice, but in the current environment with generally more small ships and squadrons attacking at closer ranges, he makes it work. It's also got a ludicrous seventeen point bid.

I think this is a bit harsh.

Fellow sympathies on this. I've encountered the list archetype twice, but haven't played one that went that hardcore on the bid to ensure second.

@Snipafist and I had fun with good opponents. Everett, the winner, seemed like a nice enough guy, I was talking him with him earlier in the day.

The garbage will do. I think I told every opponent that I don't like the list, but it can win when it is allowed to.

In all seriousness, it was a fun and well run tournament. Thanks to @CaribbeanNinja and Justin J for the games and advice at the MS regional

I actually got outbid by one point in two of the games, was given second both times. So apparently, I didn't have enough bid.

Yeah, I heard somebody talking to Shane about that. I knew it would be up eventually. People like news closer to live if they can get it though.
