Second set of games are out.

I have a gmail account but the scoreboard doesn't ask me for it and I can't view the whole thing. Since my team is in D this makes a difference. I have tried both Safarii and Firefox. What should I be doing differently?

Nothing, annoyingly it cuts off the second half of Group D when I upload it with Google Docs, so I am going to separate the files to show two groups in each one. There will be an update uploaded soon.

The group scores have been updated and can be found in the second post. I will make the next set of games on Tuesday.

[iAmCaffeine]

Group scores updated, final round one games going out.

[iAmCaffeine]

Standings updated. Congrats to [player]Grievous_B_Harm[/player] and [player]Tai_pan[/player] who are through to the second round!

[iAmCaffeine]

Updating the scores now. It's all to play for in Groups A & B. Group C will soon have a winner and there will be a tie-breaker for 2nd. Meanwhile, Group D is complete with Grievous_B_Harm and Tai_pan winning with an impressive 5-1 record, while Silly Knig-it and BabyBlueRambo make a close second 4-2.

It could be a little while before the second round starts, especially with the Group C tie-breaker.

Good luck and have fun.

[iAmCaffeine]

Standings updated. Two more teams have won their groups; well done to itake & dshedd winning Group A, and spudulica & Tazzy_J winning Group C. Runners up for Group A are still to be decided, Group B is still all to fight for and there will be a tie-breaker for second place in Group C, issued now.

Edit: Photobucket is currently undergoing maintenance so I can't upload standings just yet. Keep tuned!

[iAmCaffeine]

Groups updated. Tie-breaker for Group A runner-up created. A tie-breaker for Group C runner-up is also likely.

[iAmCaffeine]

Congratulations to dlaves and Buffaloed who won their tie-breaker 3-0 to advance as Group C Runners-Up. Also congratulations to TX AG 90 and geko who have qualified top of Group B with a record of 5 wins, no losses with 1 game ongoing. I am creating the Group B tie-breaker now.

[iAmCaffeine]

Donelladan and BENCLUB are advancing! Still waiting on the last tie-breaker.

[iAmCaffeine]

MrPinky and dkmaster are triumphant after a long battle against Conchobar and PereiroSaus, congratulations!

The next load of games are being made now. Enjoy!

looks like one of the quad's teammates in my group declined all the invitations ... do you know what happened?

He's missed them before. I have re-sent the invites but if missed again I'll drop him a message.

Invites for the first set will be sent shortly.

[iAmCaffeine]

All games from the first set of the finals are still ongoing. This could take a while.

[iAmCaffeine]

Almost half of the first set has now been completed.

I sent a PM to all finalists asking how they would like to proceed, based on these two options:

1. New sets are only created once all current games have been decided, if not finished.
2. New sets are created weekly, or bi-weekly, regardless of current games.

I only received two responses. One was very helpful and didn't mind, and the other preferred option 1. Unless there is protest, that's how we will proceed. From what I can see we're waiting on both Labyrinth games and 1, maybe 2, Conquer Rome games to be decided.

[iAmCaffeine]

The second set of final games have been created and invites sent. Current scores from the first set are in the second post.

[iAmCaffeine]

Scores updated, one game left in the first round.

Scores updated for the second set. Half of the games are complete and most are decided so I'm sending the final set out now. Good luck.

Also, shameless plug because I'm struggling with sign ups, the second edition of this tournament is here: viewtopic.php?f=90&t=205103

[iAmCaffeine]

Scores updated, only one game left from the second set.

[iAmCaffeine]

Scores updated in the second post, and below are the current and potential scores.

Final Scores
itake & dshedd - 5 (6 max.)
Donelladan & BENCLUB - 5 (7 max.)
MrPinky & dkmaster - 4 (5 max.)

One game remains in the final set between itake, dshedd vs MrPinky, dkmaster which will go to the latter team, leaving both teams with five points.

Two games remain between Donelladan, BENCLUB vs TX AG 90 which could lead to a tie-breaker or secure TX AG 90's and geko's win of the entire tournament.
