And the tournament is complete!!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO BANANA_HAMMOCKS!!

After playing an excellent tournament, you all deserve many thanks for hanging around for the better part of a year and congrats to all the big winners point-wise. I'm debating a 2nd version of this that will hopefully be MUCH quicker by making it all escalating, 6 player games with more groups. You'll all be the first to know if I do.

Thanks again for all the fun! Cheers!
