Cool spreadsheet! (words I thought I would never type together ;))

Option B.
Why not option A? - playing 4 games in the same setup simultaniously would be just monotonous. It would be harder to follow your pre planned strategy for your game this way, cause the games would mess up. I've got this tested in late Polish Leauge.

Following the same winning patern in the next round games is not the issue in my opinion, because optimal moves highly depent on other players actions, which would differ highly as the games progress. The optimal initial mine placement and boosters taken from game to game probably would be the same - but these decicions are rather obvious.
It like chess - the possibilities count in bilions. No worry in coping winning moves.

I'm for option B, I think however all groups should play the same way, so no problem for option A shoud it be selected from the most of us

@bardopondo Probably the only two of us are firmly in favor of Option B. I'll see what's on Discord, and let you know.

@ariallito

After some thought on the matter, I have changed my response from C to B.

I think we only need Molfo feedback, then everyone gave some form of feedback on either platform.

Well I think credit goes to the person who created the spreadsheet for Season one and Arial who provided the nice posters!

@ariallito can i change the answer to B? I think we can really get confused when playing parallel

Sorry, I forgot about the last rule of the Tournament:

Take it easy, it's just a game, nothing else! :)

ps.
Am I right? Of course, yes!

But ok, hmmm, let's see...

Please notice: it will be our together defeat if someone completely loses game/tournament just because of an absurd missclick.

In such a situation - please report the bug in the game chat IMMEDIATELY. The next player is supposed to wait, shouldn't make their own move. We will try to find help.

Of course, this does not apply to a player's wrong decision. The situation must be transparent, without any doubts!

These 16 group games really deserve a summary. But by not directly participating in 12 of them - I can only risk unfair judgment.

In my group D, the weakest Lantid result and the worst Ambas result were also one of the hardest fights in this group! So it makes no sense to write that X vp is a low result. In the same way - for example: I know nothing about the actual value of the Lantids scores in group B, sometimes one decision (your or not) can change everything...

If anyone wants to add something or sum up these difficult matches - please.

I can and would like only to write: thank you ALL 16 players for your games!
