I've talked with the high council! IE's task is to attack Louisville.

Looks like IE did our job, but we lost Western Kentucky. Man this concept is awesome. Unfortunately ND is just located right in the heart of the die-hards and we get wiped out early. We would need another hundred people plus to really have a shot with it. But I’m in it for the long haul this season! I’ll be waiting for our next command.

Yes we accomplished our two goals tonight. We had conceded Western knowing Michigan was going to go after it. With only two defenders we only had a 6% chance of keeping it.

Yes we need more people. Family, friends, coworkers, any ND fans. Just tell them it take literally two clicks.

Bump.

Today we clench our assholes. IE, help the team out. Join the cause. We all have too much free time, there's no excuse.

This actually answered what I was just gonna ask. I've been voting, seems kinda futile though without more support.

While numbers would help, keep in mind that there's more factors involved. Your "star level" factors into the strength of your contribution each day. Part of that star level is determined by consecutive voting each day, so the more you vote the more weight you pull. Also, you have a number of other factors involved like possible alliances and poor strategy from other fan bases. Brute strength isn't the only path to victory, although it helps.

How are territory winners calculated?

Each player attacking or defending a territory is assigned a value. This value is based on a player's star rating:
One star: 1 point
Two stars: 2 points
Three stars: 6 points
Four stars: 12 points
Five stars: 24 points

Additionally, players on the defending team receive a 50% point bonus. Each team is assigned a point value based on the total number players from that team who attacked or defended that territory. A random roll is then made to select the winner. A team's odds of winning the territory is the ratio of player points for that team to player points for all players attacking or defending the territory that turn. One player for the winning team is designated as MVP for the territory that turn.

How do I earn stars?

There are two types of star ratings. The most important is your overall star rating, which is what determines how many points you contribute in attack or defense. The second consists of your star rating in five sub-categories. Your overall star rating is the MEDIAN star rating you have achieved in the five sub-categories. For example, if you sub-category star ratings break down as 5/1/2/3/3, your overall star rating would be the median value of 3. Here are the five sub-categories and criteria for each:

Total turns played across all rounds of College Football Risk (including the reddit version)

We are defending our two territories today. Not sure which one they want IE to defend (UK or Louisville), but I'm personally defending Louisville.

Good job gentlemen. We now own Kentucky and Western Kentucky. There seem to be several good options for attack tomorrow.

Our total number of votes did drop however from 42 to 36. That's not good. Hopefully the longer this thread sticks on the home page the more players we can entice.

I almost didn't click on this thread because you chose such an awful title. Seriously, fuck Michigan. Mods, can we change it to something like "College Football Risk (Notre Dame needs you!)"

Sorry I figured losing to Michigan at anything would be of maximum interest lol. I know Beau is playing so maybe he can change it for us. I'll PM him.
