Dissolution of the USSR (Ongoing)

[Pegels]

In february I'm on holidays in Cuba for four weeks. Internet is very poor over there, so it's not a good idea to participate in this tournament. Maybe later!

[ufgolfpa]

Have qualified for the knockout playoffs and will be playing next round.

[crispybits]

One of the 2nd qualifiers is missing a player (the one I'm in) - might need a reinvite or sub

[x-raider]

So sorry about that.
I've called up the reserves.
See what I did there?

[crispybits]

Quick question about the QFs and SFs - we play 2 1v1s on the settings stipulated - if it's 1:1 do we then play a third or is there some other tie break method?

This tournament is now labeled "Needing Rescue". If it is not rescued within a week it will be considered abandoned.

If you are interested please check this section of the Tournament Handbook:

[Dukasaur]

Thanks to Dukasaur for help and advice with the format and settings.

Yes, I did, didn't I? I guess that means I'm morally obligated to rescue this thing.


Okay, as far as I can see the following have qualified to go to the knockout phase:
Philbro
generalhead
crispybits
thehippo8
andypl0nd0n
seamusk
Armandolas
jonesthecurl

I'll get their games started lickety-split. If anyone fails to join their game within 48 hours, then we may have to have some additional qualifiers or something. Let's hope everybody joins promptly and it doesn't come down to that.

Big Thanks to Duk for stepping up and rescuing the tourney. I had forgotten about it to be honest.

Big Thanks to Duk for stepping up and rescuing the tourney. I had forgotten about it to be honest.

I did my best to forget about it, after that last game. But it ended up in the pile to be rescued and I just couldn't pretend I hadn't noticed. Was vewwwy, vewwwy tempting...

I know jonesthecurl is travelling, but I assumed he would check in once in a while..

I'm reluctant to boot a player who is legitimately on vacation, especially when he's reached the Semifinal, but there has to be a limit somewhere. I guess if Game 12784936 autodeletes and he still isn't back, he forfeits.

Wow, that was fast.

I just created the games this morning, and I figured I'd have a look and see Armandolas and seamusk had joined their games yet.

Lol, not only had they joined, but they already finished all five games! Seamusk wins the final round of the tournament by a score of 4-1.

Congratulations seamusk!




I hereby declare the Soviet Union dissolved! Thank you all for playing.
