How much networth is roughly enough to get to game A?

I'd say $12m to 99.99% guarantee a place and from $9-10m to have a good chance based on past 5-6 resets.

There's been some sets when one of games b or c having $11+m for all of top 10. Since the top 10/11 get through i'd say you have to aim for that.

Getting to game A is easy: it's staying there without getting into a war that's really really hard :)

Playing in Game A is a very different strategy than getting into it. Although I have placed in the top 10 of game A for 10 straight rounds (and 11th the set before that), I wouldn't look forward to playing my way back in.

Two very different skill sets.

But I would want to do it from game B. It seems to be a weaker game set after set.

It only took me one set to get to game A (two if you count my first set in game C where I only played 10 days), and I was farmed the beginning half of the set by JJ. Still made top 10 after I got big enough to farm him back. IMO game B was fairly weak and as long as you know what you're doing there shouldn't be any problem making your way up to game A.

and blid, ive already told u many times, i dont play game A because of the same political reason i choose no to to play alliance. but yeah... ill take a 40M finish in B/C over a 30M finish and win in game A anyday.

Because I'm a forum mod now, I'm able to see it. Or am I a forum mod? No, I'm not, but your profile isn't private, just your country history.

Who's getting 40m though? I don't see anyone doing that. If someone did that, it'd be a very impressive but meaningless accomplishment since games B and C are just feeder games for the actual top tourney rung.

no one is gettting 40m this set, but what i am saying is..

id rather win with 40M in a lower game than win with 30M in game A.

something ill try next set. did some experimenting this set and might have something solid for tourney play

My advice: don't play tourney if you don't want to go to game A.

This is so easy to play if you know you will restart with another country next reset.

After 10 straight sets in the top 10, I didn't make it this time. Sitting at 11th with nothing left in the tank. :(

Played a little differently, and it cost me. Wish I hadn't been so close, I wouldn't have tried to make it, and would have teed off on the guy that grabbed me.
