Finally inserted a link to standings in post 3.

It looks like we don't have the ability to scroll to see week 1 & 2 results.

[Ace Rimmer]

They're hidden as all games are completed, less for me to scroll through. Do you need to see the results? They're all public games searchable by the tourney name.

Jake

[drunkmonkey]

Nah, totals are fine...I just didn't know if they were supposed to be accessible.

[Ace Rimmer]

Week 3 now completed (and hidden). There are two games where players deadbeat, so they have 1 less point assigned to them, so the eliminations don't quite add up. Two remaining week 4 games to see who moves on or if we have to figure out something else.

[Mad777]

Ready for week 5 games?

[Ace Rimmer]

Sorry for the delay here, but we had more than 16 people that had no eliminations (and no points) at the end of the first round. After a discussion with other TD's, I went with a suggestion from barterer2002 for the tiebreaker. Watch for post 2 to be updated with the standings.

The players that had no points and no eliminations were given a point for each position they were eliminated in their games (1 point for being first eliminated, 2 for second, etc). Reserves were given a position of 3.5 for the games they missed. After that was done, the 6 players that lasted the longest in their games (but did not have any eliminations) were passed on to round 2.

Round 2 game 1 will be going out later today sometime, with game 2 the middle of next week, then back to the Monday schedule for games 3 and 4.

Are we waiting for other games to complete now? Just curious when this will continue.

[Ace Rimmer]

Yes, one final game still ongoing in Round 2 then we'll be on to Round 3, probably the next weekday after that game ends. This game may affect who moves on so I have to wait.

[pickleofdoom]

I accidentally declined an invitation.
It was game 8170559 i think.
Can i get a new invite pls?

[Ace Rimmer]

We have one active game, but the final 8 have been determined! Congrats to nesterdude, danryan, Genoke, FarangDemon, drunkmonkey, pickleofdoom, Xayton, and sonicsteve, and thanks to all the players that played so far (especially those who stepped in as many players dropped out during this tournament).

[Mad777]

thanks to you for the organization and Good Luck to the remaining players.....

[Ace Rimmer]

Final 8 games created at one time with the acceptance of the finalists. Good luck!

[Genoke]

do we start from scratch or do we start from the points gained by thr former rounds?

[Ace Rimmer]

Start from the same points, they carry through the tourney.
