Euro Introduction Games- Fundamentals 4 - Roll for the Galaxy
This was the lowest count of participants so far. Which honestly disappointed me a bit? It's a brilliant entry level engine builder. But it's simply not a very popular game on BGA it seems. Still I'm pleased that it actually got the 8 required to run. A noteworthy occurrence happened, the first place advanced from just over 200 to 400 elo in the five weeks the tournament lasted. The rest of us didn't stand a chance. XD
Since it's a quick simultaneous game i expected one week games to be enough, but it seems like i misjudged and there were a lot of unfinished games. Once again my bad on planning.
Number of participants: 20
1st place: octo86
Starting ELO: 204
Ending ELO: 420
2nd place: NJ83
Starting ELO: 100
Ending ELO: 134
3rd place: Amleth1
Starting ELO: 136
Ending ELO: 204
Note: Starting elo is taken from result of the first match before gains and ending is taken after the end of the last match.
Highest score was 56 reached by octo86 in the following game: https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=899100986
