please explain how the staff determined the outcome to be a tie?

I know the axis didn't capture sufficient bases but did they not also kill sufficient allied players while the allieds were hiding in their ack?

I think we need a recount.

Probably because no "turf" has been swapped in the long run?

Now with Axis' new rides, I saw two bases fall last night in a reversal of D-Day.  Allies had 22, while Axis had 12 on at the time and Allies were having fits trying to kick Axis off the island, with little effort to knock out Axis ORd, Troops, or Dar in France.

It's the same old lack of coordination and lack of communication routine seen from the start, though granted there are a few Allies are attempting to rectify that situation as I type.

Hope that helped

I'm a big fan of the Latin community.  Their cuisine alone has brought me many a happy lunch/dinner.  Enchiladas, Tamales, Fajitas....man I'm starving...

I think the original rules were that a side had to take 20 bases to win. Since neither side did that it's a tie. :cry :D
