Hi, and sorry.
I've been offline recently. I got an email telling me about your PM and replied straight away. If I fail to hook up with you, then you get to progress - but I'll do my best to face you ASAP.

I sent you an invite, 7765486 is my number.

If you're online, PM me if i am not online and I'll get on, if I am not at work.

Confirming that Captain has moved on to the next round.
It was 3-2 to him, congrats and good luck for the rest of the event!

log of matches went
Captain chooses and starts, level 70, Captain wins.
BigDaddy chooses starts, level 28, BigDaddy wins.
Captain chooses and starts, level 70, Captain wins.
BigDaddy chooses starts, level 28, BigDaddy wins.
Captain chooses and starts, level 70, Captain wins.

It was a thumbs up for Supermechs that the event ran, and a pleasure to have been in it. Thanks to the mods for the work organizing it.

As was suggested and mentioned in the various posts through the thread, for future events it may be better to have to win by two clear matches, in our match each time the person going first won the match, he went first and reached 3 before me. This is NOT to say I am unhappy with the result, rather a constructive observation for next tournament.
This was amplified by a seemingly different game mechanic; where for equal level mechs the first person to start the match got two full turns rather than one turn. For similar build mechs and similar skilled players thats an awful lot of advantage to overcome, particularly at level 70 where the swords are hitting for 150-ish and the droid for 100-ish, unless the second player can gain a clear advantage of over about 400 HP, then we can predict that 'first player = winner' will apply.

Now, i'm confused about matchmaking cap.

I thought that one person (by random draw) can choose the matchmaking cap and that cap is in place throughout all 5 battles.

But after reading BigDaddy22's last reply here, the matchmaking cap seems to change after every battle.

Can someone clear the things up for me how exactly the matchmaking cap is set?

Perhaps you should replay the matches - in my matches with Lorinser21, we had the same level mechs. equipped and she began 1st every match since I am the higher level player (per the game rules), however took only 1 turn - per the "gentleman's rule" with the 2nd being a cooldown.

We are all aware of the game "bug" where players having the same level mech. should only get 1 turn, however in some cases can have 2 turns.

For the tournament and the game in general - all players should go by the rules or that could be considered "cheating".

- Niko

The players alternate picking the mech. level cap, and thus have the option to select a different cap than the one for the last battle.
