Standings are now updated. Enjoy!

No change for the final few first round games though. Hopefully those start coming to a close soon so we can move along.

think there's a mistake on the standings for game #1550278, shouldn't natewolfman have a 2?

Okay, the standings have been updated as of this afternoon.

We have had goggles paisano and negoeien finally qualify for the Second Round, and Serbia is our third FINALIST!

We are just waiting for one division to finish up and eliminate some people so the final Second Round group can get going.

Optimus Prime . . . rolling out!

Our fourth finalist is officially: Bad Speler!

He has mathematically clinched Group D in the Second Round. Now all we need is for the last First Round group to actually finish some games.

Standings will be updated later today.

Optimus Prime . . . rolling out!

Okay, standings are updated.

I have to take a bit of a break for a couple days. I'll return on Saturday to see what changes we have.

Enjoy!

It appears that only Forza AZ, nagerous, and lord voldemort have a shot at advancing out of the first round from their group now. Hopefully that gets resolved soon so we can have everyone in the Second Round finally.

Scores are updated.

Optimus Prime . . . rolling out!

Sorry for the delay everyone, yesterday was not as productive as I had hoped, but here I am again with yet another update for you. There were a couple of First Round games that finished up, although they did not have an impact on who had advanced into the Second Round already.

Forza AZ, lord voldemort, and nagerous all still have shot at the 2 spots remaining in the Second Round, and I am still hoping that someone will get eliminated at some point to help alleviate the jam while we wait.

The standings have been updated for your enjoyment.

Optimus Prime . . . rolling out!

Group E has finished a couple more games, so the standings have just been updated. There is still no change in the Andes Mountains Division from Round 1, so I can't do much there. If there is no change by the end of next week (which I think is being incredibly generous) then I will decide on something to make it have a result. The tournament has been held up quite a bit by that division at the moment.

I will be sending a PM to the players who have already qualified as finalists soon to explain the situation.

Assuming your table is correct then this is the table with only the results of the 3 finished games (+ already decided 4th place finishers in 2 games):

Forza AZ: 15
nagerous: 12
lord voldemort: 8
insomniacdude: 3
Gozar: 3

If you include the points the players will at least get in the 3 games still active (so 1 point for each in game 1440580; 3 points for each in games 1440583 & 1440588), this will be the table (between brackets the maximum the players can still get):

Forza AZ: 21 (25)
lord voldemort: 15 (23)
nagerous: 13 (17)
insomniacdude: 10 (18)
Gozar: 4 (8)

So this means I am qualified for round 2, since only lord voldemort can still catch me. Gozar is eliminated and the other 3 are fighting for 1 spot in round 2.

Game 1440583 now has only 2 players left, so that 1 should be finished soon. Don't know if that will already decide on who goes on however.

I'll go take a look and see if it does in a few minutes.

Optimus Prime · Post by **Optimus Prime** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 8:28 pm

Closer now, but I think it will take 1 more elimination of someone in a game to finalize it.

Forza AZ · Post by **Forza AZ** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 4:29 am

1440583 is now finished, so this is the new table:

Forza AZ: 23 (25)
lord voldemort: 15 (21)
nagerous: 13 (17)
insomniacdude: 11 (17)
Gozar: 4 (8)

So still no decision on the 2nd spot.

Forza AZ · Post by **Forza AZ** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 4:41 am

insomniacdude is now eliminated from game 1440588, so only 2 players left there also. This is the table now:

Forza AZ: 24 (25)
lord voldemort: 16 (21)
nagerous: 13 (17)
insomniacdude: 11 (15)
Gozar: 4 (8)

So only 2 players left for 2nd place now. But whoever wins game 1440588, it still comes down on the last game, because even if lord voldemort wins game 588, then nagerous can still equal him by winning game 580 if lord voldemort comes 4th in that game.

Forza AZ · Post by **Forza AZ** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 5:14 am

1440588 also finished now:

Forza AZ: 25
lord voldemort: 16 (20)
nagerous: 13 (17)
insomniacdude: 11 (15)
Gozar: 4 (8 )

So I did my best to get this group finished :wink:

, but it still comes down to the last game, and it doesn't look like that 1 will be over soon.

Optimus Prime · Post by **Optimus Prime** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 11:42 pm

I applaud the good work their Forza AZ. Looks like you won 5 of 6 games in that round. Geez!

As for how it breaks down now, if anyone but lord voldemort gets eliminated next in that last game then it is you and him on to the next round. He has to finish 4th for nagerous to have a shot.

Oh, and the standings are now updated.

Optimus Prime · Post by **Optimus Prime** » Sat Feb 16, 2008 2:02 pm

Okay, another game finished for Group E, so I have updated the standings now. It looks like with the next eliminated from the Andes Mountains group we should know the final two from there and can get the last Second Round group going finally.

Regards, Optimus Prime

its not possible for all 3 (forza me and nagerous) to go through is it

edit: never mind just realised only 2 go through. ill annoy nagerous about it on msn so i can go through. he owes me one anyway.
so i can try and get this stand still going
