Looking forward to this.
Can we play 2 or 3 games to reduce the randomness of the game? Besides, they don’t take too long.
Activated!
i would say let’s get started with a fast and easy approach.
we can think about something new in the next one, like roundrobin group phase with 1vs1 games? or a series of 3P games with mixed setups?
i ran random.org for these table setups:
table 1
@Dave
@zen4one
@johnl
@KYakerDude
table 2
@JHTaube
@whovian223
@JammaTal
@AtticusJr
does PE randomize the player sequence? i think so, right?
then it would not matter who creates the game.
it’s easy to add new players to the buddy list.
who wants to do it for table 1?
i have all table 2 players on my list and so can start the game right away.
let’s hope that all players will be able to see the invite 
I can start up Table 1. I just sent out BL invites to KYakerDude and johnl in PE. Let me know if either of you use different usernames in PE. Once we’re all on each other’s lists, I’ll start the match.
I’m john_1325 in PE
In PE, you just need to a person to your BL, no need to accept a buddy invite. So go ahead and send the game invite.
Crap, I screwed that up. I just sent out two game invites. An invite to johnl instead of john_1325 in one of them, but the other invite should be correct.
@whovian223, did you get the invite for table 2?
we had problems some time ago (before the last patch) when not all players could see the invitation. that’s why i ask.
Yep. Just accepted it a few minutes ago.
Sorry for the delay!
no problem! i’m just very glad that all players could see the invite.
what a progress!
so Asmodee got it done at last.
and we have a new fast, accessible and appealing tourney game!
maybe next time with 16 players and group stage?
Table 1 complete. I won that one.
and it was really a tie for 2nd place?
then KYakerDude and zen4one must play a tiebreaker 2P game.
does not matter who sends the invite.
Next time, I’ll be sure grab a screenshot. But yes, as I recall they tied for second place with 41 points each. Can anyone else from table 1 confirm?
I can confirm the tie. I’ve got a screenshot, but it’s a pain to post because I have to resize it.
I’ll setup the game.
i think PE is a great 2P game indeed, maybe even at its best as 2P.
in a 4P game we can only try to influence the board for next player’s turn.
most things happen out of our reach, and when it’s our next turn it will be quite another board.
in 2P the board will be the same in big parts in our next turn.
and both players have to make the best of the board for themselves and to try to make it harder for the opponent to get what he needs.
in other words i can’t wait for a roundrobin PE League or at least for a tourney with group stage 
I agree. I would much rather play this as a two or even three person game.
Looking forward to a roundrobin head to head tournament.
How about a “Wizard of Potion Explosion” Challenge like the “Crown of Cthulhu” Challenge? (Maybe you can think of a better name.)

table 2 just finished:
Jamma 63
AtticusJr 58
JHTaube 47
whovian223 44
so Dave Seidner, AtticusJr and Jam-me can take our comfortable seats at the final table and wait for the winner of the tie-break match @KYakerDude vs @zen4one.
oki doki, grats on the win KYakerDude!
player sequence is randomized at game start, so i can send the invites now.
done!
potions were randomized too. i did not even take a look, so i will be surprised too.
btw what are your personal preferences?
i dislike the stealing potion and love the Sands of Time.
