Now just waiting on privileges.

Please join them promptly. Thanks.

Group 2 is completely finished with all their games.

OK. I finally have gotten all groups updated. Sorry about the delay, I've been traveling a bit and will be traveling a bit more soon - so expect more delays.

Scores are updated on the third post.

[angola]

Groups 2 and 4 should be done pretty soon.

Group 3 however is in a slugfest on a massive map that will hold up the tournament.

All righty, we are just waiting on one game for the semifinals to start. Unfortunately, that game looks like it will take a really long time.

Group 3 got stuck in a stalemate, so we now have a new game to replace the stalemate game.

It is a classic. It should get this tournament going again - I figure in about 2 weeks max.

If you feel like following along at home, here it is: Game 9791315

Looks like I didn't make the cut..

Oh well.

You'll have to do this again someday; I thought this was an excellent tournament. Only thing I would change is make it 7-player next time. The math gets a big more complex, but I find 8-player is just too constricting on the smaller maps.

It is brutal on the small maps, but can you imagine 7 player on the monster maps?

As an aside, I like the new round limit thing. If I have the urge to run tournaments after this one - which seems unlikely for awhile - I could see some strange escalating tournaments popping up with that option.

Edit: Oh, and I really don't love most peoples' maps. In fact, I kind of hate them. Monsters? Cricket? What the hell?

[angola]
