The Betting Thread - DTS 2016


It's that time again! Time to place your bets folks.


This year there will also be a prize for the winner!

But before you get to excited take a moment to read through the rules.



PRIZE:
The winner gets to choose one of these three different prizes:
1. A fun assortment of Swedish candy. (Posted to you no matter where you live. Except space.)
2. A hand-drawn fantasy map of your choice. (Preferably your own fantasy map. Perhaps part of your future campaign?)
3. A computerized boardgame from my youth (worth 7€). It will be a surprise.




RULES:
• You may only make one bet.
• Betting on yourself is allowed.
• Judges of the competition may not bet until the deadline has passed, and not after testing the maps.
• Betting through smurf-accounts is not allowed and will result in disqualification.
• Totally copying another persons bet is allowed.
• The person with the most rights win.
• In case of a tie the first person to place his bet wins.
• Only your latest bet is counted if you happen to have several in this thread.



This years combatants:



MrMew:
This guy is getting better and better.
In his last competition he placed 10th
but with a thin margin to the top
contestants. This is a guy with great
potential. So watch out!
Check out his previous works:
Redwood Garrison
Hidden Village

Al _ Kharn the Great:
"The great" doesn't even come close
to describing this lad. He surely knows
what he's doing when it comes to B&Ds.
He also has a rather intense record of
top notch scenarios in his arsenal.
Check out his previous works:
City of Peace
Tristan & Iseult
The Magyar Conquest

King Steffen:
This guy is pretty unknown to
me and I could only find two
submissions to the blacksmith.
We will see how he fares against
the more experienced designers.
Check out his previous work:
Mongol Invasion of Rus
War of the five Kings - Game of Thrones

Lildbehr:
Defending his title since 2013
Lildbehr is the current king of
DTS. How long will that last though?
Will he even have time to finish
something this time around? Surely!
Check out his previous works:
Battle of Eilean Donnain
Vane'rir
Saint Gawain and the Dragon

Darth Sarek:
This guy has improved a lot
lately and has a few nice
scenarios here at AoKH.
He has also competed in both
PTC15 and AVC14.
Check out his previous works:
Brasov
A reunion to remember

DelCrosB:
Entered both the PTC15
and the MGC14. Both were
very good and did well
in their respective
competitions. Can he
do even better this time?
Check out his previous works:
The Elite Training Academy Challenge (Awesome playability)
Platopolys

Muhammad Mirza:
He entered the PTC15 but never
finished. I don't know much about
him since he hasn't posted any
scenarios here. We will have
to wait and see what he does.

cartoon_paperboy:
This guy entered the PTC way
back in 2011. He then placed 11th
but has surely improved since then
He has a total of three scenarios
on this site two rated 3.0 or above.
Check out his previous works:
[ Chapter XVII ] - Black rabbit
[ Chapter XXI ] - The pursuit
Dunes of Haltamti

Mashek:
That's it! We're done for! This
guy is a brilliant designer
who actually wrote the guide/bible
to designing siege/defense scenarios.
Check out his previous works:
Blood of the Bear
The Second Kretharn War - A Day of Hatred and Lost Memories
The Second Kretharn War - The Night of Long Tears

D4Ra4Aracks111:
Eracks is a guy who wants to prove
himself in our tight little community.
And from what I've seen the guy has
great potential.
Check out his previous work:
Control all player in record game

HELLKNIGHT61:
Competed in AVC back in 2014,
he made a fairly good scenario
even if it had some bugs. After
that he hasn't been very active.
Check out his previous work:
The Nightmare!!!

GranCalabaza:
The great pumpkin himself...
We are honored by your presence.
I am the Melon Munchkin Cat
and these are my sideshow
caterpillars.

I've noticed that as well, Julius. I think something about the UserPatch might no longer make the POREX villager trick function properly.

Actually, I've just tested this, and it seems to work fine. One notable issue, however, is that in the UserPatch, the AI will automatically send sheep to their town center or mill, which can spoil certain effects, such as if you want sheep sitting around in the countryside grazing with a shepherd watching over them.

You are:
Eracks:
1. Mash
2. Lildbehr

And it's good to have a unique bet or to be first, those who are in red won't get a prize.

Come on D4Ra4Aracks111, I'm counting on you!
Lol, I just thought it would be fun to root for the underdogs! It's clear who everyone thinks are in the top three. I think the only unique vote left for that group would be 1.Lildbehr 2.Al_kharn 3.Mash. Someone had better claim it before it's too late!

Had you voted for yourself in third place you would have taken the prize.

As I wrote in the main topic, I was just about to do that! Then I changed my mind because I didn't want to seem arrogant!

Congratulations to Hellknight anyway!

That would have been fine, as you may have noted Al_Kharn and myself took the cookie and went for ourselves anyway!

Yes, that's true! But you two are legendary designers! After this good placement I will be more confident betting on myself next time though!

I'll get to playing your file hopefully soon. From what I read, it seems very promising.

Ohh...! I can't wait for the next "Betting thread", I've got big plans for that one.
For one we need more diversity between the bets, so next time you will have to list five contestants instead of three.
Secondly there should be previews or images of previous designs in the thread for quick access.

I think that we should have to list all contestants from last to first.

There should also be betting on who will drop out. Everyone bets I will anyway.

Yeah why didn't Trirem win?

posted 04-28-16 10:22 AM CT (US)     174 / 193  
Probably because Darth Sarek is closer to third position than Lildbehr.
posted 04-28-16 10:49 AM CT (US)     175 / 193  
Yes, Trirem didn't win because Darth Sarek placed above me. Hellknights bet is closest with two rights and the highest kicker. Seonid came in second and Trirem came in third.
