I'd like to be in but haven't played a tourney before and have no partner.

[Peter Gibbons]

Registration closed. Games will be drawn and sent once privileges are attained. I will send the 4-team games first, then the 3-team, then the 2-team. Let me know if you have any questions.

[Peter Gibbons]

First two maps are sent. Will try to get 2+ maps out per 24 hours. At 130-games and 720 invites (with random assignments per map), there's only so much I can do at a time.

[Peter Gibbons]

All 4-team games are out and active.

Have started sending the invites for the 3-team games. Malta is out. Will try to do one per day.

[Peter Gibbons]

9 of 15 games are out. Will try to get Benelux done in the next 48 hours. Then will wait a little bit before drawing and sending the 2-team games.

[Peter Gibbons]

Board is fully updated and all 3-team and 4-team games are active or already finished. Going to delay the 2-team games a bit longer.

[Peter Gibbons]

Board fully updated and the first 2-team games, on Cyprus, are sent. Each team now has 4 more games coming in the next several days...

Hello, hmsps and myself (tobikera) have won two 4-team doubles game in this tourney. Shouldn't we have 30 points, instead of the 40 points you have indicated? I didn't check the other team totals.........so,....

Actually, we're both wrong...

Up until just now, you had won one 4-team game (Balkans Game 4) and one 3-team game (Malta Game Game 8 ). That should be 25 points. I must have added another 4-team game to your total by mistake. You've now won another 3-team game (France Game 5) so your correct total at this instant is 35 points.

Another player PMed me asking to check a score, so I bet I just transposed things wrong. I'm going to go through and correct any errors and will let everyone know when the update is made. Sorry about that and thanks for pointing it out now.

[Tobikera]

Many thanks for the clarification....

[Peter Gibbons]

Ok. All should be updated. 16 3-team games are done and 10 4-team games are done at the moment. That's 310 points completed and there are 310 points awarded in the table.

[Peter Gibbons]

Board fully updated. Lot of games still to play, though the 4-team and 3-team games are really winding down. For now it's looking like a two-team race, though...

Italy, Ireland and Luxembourg games are still due to be sent. Will try to get them out this week.

[Peter Gibbons]

Board fully updated with 73 games complete. If you notice a discrepancy in your score, please note it before we get to the end and I'll check it out.

Italy games just sent. Top 2 teams were drawn against each other on that map so that could be a huge game.

Luxembourg is the only map still to come now. Will update as often as I can this week, as many games should be concluding soon.

[Peter Gibbons]

Board updated. Cyprus, Malta and Balkan Peninsula are completely finished.

[Peter Gibbons]

Board updated. Benelux, France and Iberia complete.

[Peter Gibbons]

Luxembourg games are out the door. That's all 120 games... 15 each.

Board is fully updated.

Believe it or not, this looks to be a runaway for lipsondavid and mzombocraz001. I just ran all the numbers for actives games and only benga and V.J.'s team have enough games remaining to pass the 100 point threshold... and given the status of one of those games, that seems very unlikely. Plus it looks like lipsondavid and mzomboracz001 will score more points regardless. Can't declare a champion yet because it's not mathematically clinched, but we're probably one game away from doing so...

[Peter Gibbons]

Well, at this point everyone is playing for second place. lipsondavid and mzomboracz001 have run away with this one, racking up a remarkable 100 points already (with the possibility of winning 15 more). The closest anyone else can possibly get is 80 points. It's truly been a remarkable performance. They've won 10 out of 14 games, with one pending.

So congratulations to lipsondavid and mzomboracz001, worthy champions of the XXXII version of this series and true Initech all-stars.

Thanks, Peter. Great tournament -- as usual!
