PREV Winter 909 Adjudication: NEXT

DC229: The Winter 909 season has been adjudicated. I never received orders from 2 players: Arabia and Wagadu. For Arabia, he had 2 builds, so these are waived. For Wagadu, he had 2 disbands, and so I had to determine which units to remove.

Before I describe the system to determine this, I want to urge everybody to pay greater attention to the game. We have had 3 missed order sets in the last 2 deadlines. These are all normally reliable players, and so I'm concerned that the game has lost some momentum; however, missed deadlines will only exacerbate the problem. It is only fair to the other players and David to continue putting in a full effort for the integrity of the game and the gametest. Please, let's try harder to get orders in on time.

Now I will describe the sysetm that I use to determine which units are removed. Here are the units to keep from highest to lowest priority:

1) any unit in a home SC (if tied, skip to #4)
2) any unit in a neutral SC (if tied, skip to #5)
3) if no units in an SC, the unit that is minimum tempi from a home SC (or a neutral SC, if no home SCs, and skip to #5 if tied)
4) if tied from #3, unit that is minimum tempi from the next closest home SC (exhaust all home SCs)
5) if still tied from #4, unit that is minimum tempi from the next closest neutral SC (exhaust all neutral SCs)
6) if still tied from #5, alphabetical order (keep A, disband Z)

In this game, we only have home SCs, so the neutral/home distinction is not relevant. First, Wagadu keeps Awl, Kus, and Wal (all in SCs). Sij and Tir are both 1 tempi from an SC (Wal), while Jel is 2 tempi, so Jel is removed. Both Sij and Tir are 2 tempi from the next closest SC (KuS). The third SC is Awl, and Sij is 2 tempi away, while Tir is 4 tempi. Therefore, Sij is kept, and Tir is removed.

Here is the adjudication. Our next deadline is Thu June 4th. Please send in prelims and make sure to get your orders to me in a timely fashion.
