[jrh_cardinal]

updated, full, will PM NS now

[jrh_cardinal]

I've been given privileges, games will be sent out tomorrow, sorry, I don't have time right now

[jrh_cardinal]

sending out games in the next hour or so

[jrh_cardinal]

games sent, you have 48 hours to join

[jrh_cardinal]

after just over a day, all but 1 player has joined the games, and that player was not added on to the PM for their group for some reason. I am resending that PM now, all games should be started sometime in the next 2 days

[jrh_cardinal]

ok, all games started, I will check back in in a couple of days

[jrh_cardinal]

games moving along nicely, I will send out the second set of games this week

[jrh_cardinal]

now creating second set of games

[jrh_cardinal]

the second (and final) set of games is out, after these games the top two in each group go to playoff 8 man group, same idea as first round

[shipmthisway]

Hey man, we are waiting on one player in 4 of our games.
It has been like that for a little while now.
Do you know who is missing and what is going on?

[jrh_cardinal]

sorry, Catarah had a problem with his premium. He has it back now and has joined his games

[jrh_cardinal]

standings updated, 11 of the 16 first round games have finished. Remember 2 people from each group advance to the finals

[jrh_cardinal]

okay, about 5 round 2 games are finished, I will most likely update standings on Thursday, once a couple more finish up

[jrh_cardinal]

standings updated. All of the round 2 games have finished for groups 1 and 2. Representing Group 1 in the finals will be Aalmeida17, with 3 wins, and jrh_cardinal, with 2 wins. Representing Group 2 will be darkseb, with 3 wins, and Steve The Mighty, with 2 wins.

Group 3 has finished 5 games, and aglenist is looking good to get in the finals with 2 wins (though not automatically in the finals)

Group 4 is still wide open with only 3 completed games. Brett2000 is leading the pack with 2 wins so far.

[jrh_cardinal]

aglenist has now clinched a championship spot, his group only has 2 active games left and he is leading by 2 wins over the second place players, so he can't be caught by two different people

the other three championship spots are still up for grabs

[jrh_cardinal]

there are now only 3 games active

[Iron Maid]

Game 6696645 finally finished. In Group 4, now 3 players end with 2 victories. [player]Iron Maid[/player], [player]brett200[/player] & [player]dragon dor[/player]

This is the game-log for Game 8 which is deciding:
2010-04-11 03:03:14 - Game has been initialized
2010-04-29 02:35:24 - yazoochick eliminated shipmthisway from the game
2010-04-30 21:18:58 - dragon dor eliminated TODRICH from the game
2010-05-11 21:47:03 - yazoochick eliminated dragon dor from the game
2010-05-14 16:31:12 - yazoochick eliminated ivanbuba from the game
2010-05-14 16:31:56 - yazoochick eliminated brett2000 from the game
2010-05-14 16:33:34 - yazoochick eliminated JenBear from the game
2010-05-14 16:52:56 - yazoochick eliminated Iron Maid from the game
2010-05-14 16:52:56 - yazoochick won the game

This means that [player]Iron Maid[/player] & [player]brett2000[/player] are the ones that qualify for the Finals.

[jrh_cardinal]

that is correct. There are now just two games remaining, both in Group 3. I'll send out the first four championship games as soon as I can

[jrh_cardinal]

one of the two games is over, the other is almost decided but I guess someone could have some huge stack or something, either way, the championship should be set this weekend

[jrh_cardinal]

ok, nudge has basically finished up the last game, so I'm sending the first 4 championship games now, gl all
