Okay, so Tammy DeLee, seamusvibe and blockhead15 have decided to quit the tournament. Which leaves me 1 slot short every round, so I [in the spirit of not looking for reserves *-*, and the fact that barely anybody is even interested in completing the crossword at the moment, with the utter lack of participation of letter requesting [and lack up updates on my part :oops:]] I will simply make my life easier and just join one game each round.

That said, I still need to sort through the mess of Rounds 10 and 11 have caused, as well as annoying people for their letters.

This *hopefully* will be done by Sunday, though no guarantees.

Apparently, I'm very bad at making promises, and you should apparently never take my word.

Anyways, besides that, I'm more or less curious to see who is actually interested in the whole point of this tournament - trying to complete the crossword. I feel that letters are coming to me in trickles, people who used to be interested probably are fading [because of the slow-ness of the tournament, or other matters]. Therefore, I'm PM-ing all *current* participants of this tournament to see who is still willing to play.

So, if you honestly feel that you don't really care about making a crossword - or aren't even trying [or even sending in letters], what is the real point of playing in this tournament?

Anyways, PM-ing all participants - if you respond, you stay in [unless you respond that you wish to drop out]; if you don't respond, I'm going to automatically assume you are either on a hiatus/don't care anymore/etc.

Updating sometime after September but before Labour Day.

No need to comment.

There are only four players left, due to them being the only ones to have responded.

amazzony
MudPuppy
Glenghis
AtreidesHouse

Since there are only 4 participants [which makes it a lot easier on me!!~] I'll be assigning games so that one player doesn't accidentally get left out of the loop. Though technically, when one faces themselves, they must win, right? XD

Glenghis is away 'til the 28th, but I'll update before then. [hopefully]

Round 10, 11 and 12 games [I think we're at 12 :?] if they are the only person in that round without a chance at letters, they will automatically win letters of their choice, if not; they will have to fight it out! [Sorry if it's grammatically incorrect, I'm not thinking straight at this hour of the day].

Hi all,

I hate that I couldn't finish this tourney out b/c I've been so slammed with school this summer & now this fall. I'm looking forward to seeing a completed crossword soon though!

Best,
Laci

Really sorry for the month-ish lag at the moment, but I'm going to try my best to look at the tournament over the weekend, and definately get some games sent out!

Well, all the letters and stuff done. You'll notice the absence of the colours, [despite looking nice, they were a lot of work when transferring over from my excel to Google Docs.] You'll also notice an "Unclaimed" section of the letters, showing how many sets of letters you have yet to claim. When claiming them, please reference the game number, OR, if no game number is provided, please state that you are claiming them from the "unclaimed pile" or something of the sort. The URL is provided below, for easy access.

Rounds 10-12

Round 13 games should be sent out soon.

Yeah, I know this is really old. [Forgot to check & no player notification.] But after I check it to see if it's valid, I'm giving it a 24 hour appeal by opponents. [Like if I missed something or anything. Words, I'm quite sure are all valid and all.]

Yeah. Hopefully, this will be checked TOMORROW. *reminds self*

And thanks to all of you who've stuck with me for the past year+.
