This is cute.

I believe the challenge was for me to play a successful set. Now I have to play 3 successful sets and win?

Eh.

Yeah, this isn't exactly what I had in mind. I simply pointed out that IHSFT hasn't accomplished anything yet.

That being said, I'll gladly participate.

Uh, why not just use the Best 3 from the Leaderboards. If you wanted you could look at it in 3 sets so everyone has a fair chance to either improve or have 3 sets from which to take the best. Then it counts NW which is probably a much better indicator than rankings...

jj23: then exclude the common gov type/strat combos.

or stretch this out over multiple resets with different combos for each reset.

Anyone can follow a canned strat.

You will obviously get "style" points for running uncommon strat/gov types.

It wont help you win the challenge, but you'll def get some respect for it. At least from me, anyhow.

We should have a list of strats, and everyone should roll a random number generator to see what they have to run.

That be interesting.

Why dont we have a list of strats as mentioned, random number to determine one same gov type everyone in the challenge has to play. That would neutralize the role market conditions play on a strats effectiveness in a particular set

sorry trainboy, I screwed up and waited too long to destock and needed the land to rebuild my pm faster. I tried to hit countries that didn't look like they were gonna finish well cause I didn't want to ruin anyone's chances at making top 10.

We doing the random strat for this set?

I vote that we roll 2 random number generators, 1 for the Strategy ( Indy/tech/cash/farm blah ), and the other for Government.

Then we all play that combination. And see whats what.

Could make for some interesting sets.

I started as a theo techer, but then decided to convert to a casher as work got crazy and I was only be able to play once everyday. Messed up at the end though with many stored turns left.

IHSFT, I think that would be fun playing some weird combo govt/strat.

Simple solution to stop getting farmed: Have less land than the people around your networth. Always works for me.
