((The first NADF rated game held outside of KublaCon or Conquest was played October 19. It was hosted by Christopher Young in Antioch. The game was organized using the newly created bayareadip yahoo group. Adam Silverman won with a solo concession in 1906. Long time postal diplomacy veteran John David Galt played.))
This game report will appear soon on the NADF site on the Northern California club page.

We had 33 players in 8 boards of which 2 were the mentor boards on Friday night.
21 of the players had never played in a tournament before.
12 of those 21 learned to play the game at this convention.

Scoring System
All new players who have never played in a fact to face tournament and who play in the mentor round Friday night get 5 points regardless of result. Veterans get no points for the mentor round but are expected to lend their teaching skills.
For the 3 rounds of the regular tournament the scoring was:
Win 34 points (all others get –0-)
For game which do not have a winner then:
+1 point for each final supply center
+2 points for each eliminated player
The player with the most centers get a bonus of 2 points for each center more than the next player.
Maximum points in a non win situation is 27.
(( The numbers are sustaining nicely in the Bay Area Diplomacy events. With Adam Silverman now at Stanford, the possibility exists of developing some experienced FTF players. Edi’s scoring system above does a good job of blending the North American “kill everyone” base with the European table topping, and Austalian/New Zealand dot counting systems. All system retain the “solo is the objective” base.
Edi has done a terrific job in introducing the game to many players in the Bay Area over the past two years. I hope he is ready to consider inviting some of the So. Cal. and Northwest players to visit, before the locals decide to deify Adam.))
