congrats to shoop76 and olkok for winning their groups.



one game to go, it's very competitive, check it out:

Game 5004379

okay, looks like the final game has reached a tipping point... it seems unlikely that they'll reach equilibrium again, and a winner is probably imminent.

I'll hopefully be starting the Round 2 games tonight or tomorrow and sending them out to you. One game may have to wait a while for it's final participant to be decided, but it will hopefully (likely) be a short wait.

[Thanks for everyone's patience. I think i might make my next tourney 1v1 or Escalating Spoils so games finish faster. Long games are certainly rewarding, but to keep the next few tourney's moving faster, I think I'll avoid No Spoils, Chained in most of them.]

DevilDuck has not been seen around these parts since July 13th, and my dog ain't no tracker...

The Eastern Division has been waiting on him to join their Division final game. Now that the final Round 1 game in the Western Division is wrapping up, it's time for him to join or be bumped.

Once the Western Division game starts, I'll give DevilDuck another day or two to join, and then I'll have to disqualify him and restart the game as a 3-player. Hate to do it, but not much choice...

C'mon DD, we're anxious to get started and would sure prefer to have you included!!!

congrats to olkok from Group H and GreenBaize from Group A!!!

restarted Bracket 2, unfortunately DevilDuck did not show in time to continue, so we're moving on without him.

See two of you in the final games! (Remember, the final round will be 1v1, first player to two wins. I'll start two games for the finalists, and if they split them, a third and deciding game will be played.)

Good luck all!

very interesting games going on!

no one eliminated yet, but a few players seem to be on the brink... then again, several have looked that way before and have rallied back.

bracket 2 is on Round 66 already... check the games out and see how they're doing! Whoever makes it to the finals is really going to have earned it!

[mgconstruction]

They are on round 145 now. Great game there.
