Reserved for Johnny Dickshot

What an amazing response in just 18 hours

Well once johnny Dickshot confirms his entry the field now has 48 runners. I'm going to change the format to 8 groups of 6, with each player playing each other twice at that stage. Two will still advance from each group, so there will now be a round of 16 knock out stage, best of 3.

Give me a day or two to get the seeding and get privs. Then the fun will start.

Anyone else will now go on the reserve list.

Excellent decision

in please

.....Here is the longer version. I believe it was said by a soldier from the 24th Panzer Division....."We have fought during 15 days for a single house," writes a
German officer, "with mortars, grenades, machine guns, and
bayonets. Already by the third day 54 German corpses are strewn
in the cellars, on the landings, and the staircases. The front is
a corridor between burnt-out rooms; it is the thin ceiling
between two floors. Help comes from neighboring houses by fire
escapes and chimneys. There is a ceaseless struggle from noon to
night. From story to story, faces black with sweat, we bombard
each other with grenades in the middle of explosions, clouds of
dust and smoke, heaps of mortar, floods of blood, fragments of
furniture and human beings. Ask any soldier what half an hour of
hand-to-hand struggle means in such a fight. And imagine
Stalingrad; 80 days and 80 nights of hand-to-hand struggles. The
street is no longer measured by meters but by corpses...
"Stalingrad is no longer a town. By day it is an enormous
cloud of burning, blinding smoke; it is a vast furnace lit by the
reflection of the flames. And when night arrives, one of those
scorching, howling, bleeding nights, the dogs plunge into the
Volga and swim desperately to gain the other bank. The nights of
Stalingrad are a terror for them. Animals flee this hell; the
hardest stones can not bear it for long; only men endure."

Yes please bud, Am in

2nd reserve mate

I am up for this. Thanks for the invite.

Only 3rd reserve my friend. The take up was very very quick.

If you are ready for the tournament to start, make sure to mark it as FULL and list all settings that are to be used.

• Now you have to decide the details of the Tournament and how it will be set up. For this you will need to decide upon all settings for the games and list them in the tournament thread. The settings are:
  
  
  • Number of entrants (keep in mind, it should work out evenly all the way to the end).
  • Map
  • Game Type
  • Play Order
  • Troop Deployment
  • Spoils
  • Reinforcements
  • Special Gameplay (Fog of War and Trench)

Once your tournament is full, please designate as such. You can do this by “editing” your original subject line and writing “FULL” at the end of it. Your thread will be moved after you request your privileges.

Seconded. Love the work you`ve done on this.

I think I'm 3-4, not 1-6 as the standings say. Not that it matters much...

and I'm currently 6-1, not 7-0 (I wish!). Lost a real humdinger (28 rounds!) to ViperOverLord

make it 7-1 now

Ok guys I'll double check those scores.

Group stage finished yet?
