The headline for this round reads, "Move over, Rover, and let uckuki take over!" On the back of an absolutely stellar performance in the Turkey Shoot (2 wins and 13 kills!) uckuki rises to not only the top of Group 4 but also the overall lead. Armandolas, who not long ago was facing elimination, posted 2 wins and 15 kills to rise to second in his Group and the top wildcard spot. The most amazing Turkey Shoot score, however, goes to Morleyjoe, whose 3 wins and 18 kills rocketed him from third to first in Group 2, as well as the second-spot overall in regular points and third in total points. Epitaph 1, who has been leading the tournament until now, falls back to fourth and fifth in regular and total points. DCR keeps his position on top of Group 1, as well as holding second place in total points.

A final note: Uckuki went into the Finals with 101 points, and it looked like anyone else would need a minor miracle to catch his score. I felt that I had somewhat failed in the design of the tournament, in that it should always be possible for anyone who reaches the final to win. Uckuki, however, really hit this one out of the park! He won 10 games in the final round, more than any other player, and therefore would have won even if the scores had reset!!!
Congratulations Uckuki, on a truly stellar performance!
(And a follow-up congratulations to Epitaph1, who earlier won the GA medal in this tournament)
Thank you all very much for playing!
