Round 10 is finally complete! Scores have been updated on both the
Google Sheet and
Challonge.com and I have sent a reminder for round 11 lists to the captains I have yet to hear from. I will be sending out invites for Round 11 on April 22nd, whether I hear back or not. Thanks!

It looks like we may be needing a few new members and possibly even a new team captain for USA. Please let us know asap if you're interested at all. No need to actually be from the USA. Thanks!

How long are we supposed to sit and wait for team USA to get filled up again?

Unfortunately it looks like these games are going to end up being the first in the tourney that are forfeited. tfh182 seems to have left CC and the team was kind of falling apart anyway. I've been trying to get at least a couple people to come in, but zero luck.

Have no other games been forfeited for the entire tournament so far? That's... damn impressive.

Can we rally round our clans and maybe find some players willing to step up and play for USA for the last few rounds of this tourney? Damn shame if forfeits are necessary.

Oh, please do. I would sooo appreciate that! I absolutely hate to have to forfeit more rounds and I suspect tfh182 will not be coming back as he was having some physical issues he has been dealing with.

Yay! That's fabulous. Thank you! I think 3 or 4 should do and I can just use random.org to form the teams if no one steps up to be captain. You're the best!

Only six games still ongoing for Round 11. I had to drop 5 games due to issues with Team USA, but hopefully that is the first and last time any games need to be forfeited. If anyone would like to join Team USA, please let us know.
Thanks.

Round 11 is complete and scores have been updated. United Nations have squeaked past Greece for the #2 spot!
Team USA is still a bit of a work in progress, but we do have a couple new members. No one stepping up to be team captain as of yet, though. If anyone else would like to join or knows someone who does, please let me know.
I'd like all Round 12 invites to be out by June 7th, so captains please get me any changes to your line-ups asap. Thank you!
