Here comes the simple AAR

This year 12 players attended our tournament, including one female player (my wife and she defeated me in the first round!)

After 4 rounds of games. James P. Lewis won the champion title. Chenxi Li was the second place. Gregory Feng is the third place and also the Champion of CC! (The guy who won the highest CC-VP) .

We will have our next tournament in Guiyang next year! Welcome to join us!!

Great to hear from the Chinese ASL community!

Is "Dare Death" the only ASL tournament in China? Do you have any knowledge of how large the ASL player-base might be in China? And is that player-base connected or does is rather consist of dispersed "islands"?

:) Never mess with the "long haired general" - so goes the saying... ;)

Congrats to the winners!

Hello Marwitz,

Thanks for your kind reply.

"DD" might be the only tournament. We have over 50 active players as I know (I believe there are many other players I didn't know). It's difficult to tell you the specific number, maybe twice as I know? China is too large. And the number is increasing, every year we have new players. That's a good news.

The biggest barrier for them to attend our game is the time. Most of us are 30's or 40's, at our busiest time in our life maybe (I only played 8 games this year till now!😢).

Hope more players from all over the world could join us!

Thanks for this interesting feedback.

Of course, it is hard to find time to play in one's 30's and 40's. On the positive side, this means that the Chinese player base is young.

I would estimate that most ASLers from the US and Europe tend to be in their 50's or 60's. Though I am not attending but one tournament regularly per year, my impression is that in our parts the player base has a hard time to expand or even to maintain its numbers. In any case if one sees pictures of tournaments in Europe and the US, most people have grey hair...

So, keep it coming and roll low!

Cheers,
von Marwitz

Hi

I would like to add the Dare Death 2025 results to the ASL Player Ratings website. If someone could send me the game results I would be happy to upload them.

We have 2023 and 2024 in our system already.

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for your reminding.
Actually that's my fault. I was too busy after the tournament and had no time to upload our tournament. I'll send you the result in one or two days.

BTW, 'GhanZ_19' should be Dare Death 2019, could you modify it?

Thanks!

I believe that I have updated this as requested. Please check that all results for DareD_19 are present. Thanks!
