Will truly be glad when group 8 is over, with the constant subs and Backside's incessant bragging (you can use the assault odds script to plan your attacks, we get it) it's been one long slog. Slightly worried i've over carpetbagged it but should be safe now.

Geez! Group 8 has so many temporary subs it's impossible to keep track of whose who, is really messing me up so far. Gonna take a little while to get my feet under me.

Will be good to get going again, get another shot at Keefie and get to test Barwise out. Should be a fun group all around.

He's got 14 active games left, he's in a 29 point hole, he's too far back still unless Slayer goes out next in each remaining game from here on out.

Just about safe now, time to see if I can clear 800.

Interesting to see that the two highest scorers so far, were both in group 1 last year, my word that was a stacked group. A few close groups this year but the regular threats are looking menacing.

Meh! Now 18 games in and group 15 is almost decided already I feel, is going to take a superlative tactical adjustment for 5th or 6th to catch 4th as they're already in a huge hole in terms of active games.

Dazoot, can you check the scoring for group 15 game 41, I see I have 8 points somehow.

I'm working on my old rule from last map blaster, keep away from the flat raters and leave them to it, problem being they're everywhere .

Group 15 proving painful, four flatrate style players in the group and it's causing chaos :S. Should be fun to see how it pans out as one or two may get through.

Going through my usual run of early round brutal dice, had three games slip from my grasp already..

Should be plenty of time, it takes maybe four or five los maps to get a feel for your opponents, the real dirty business usually happens between games 50 and 100.

Quite an adjustment going back to the first round, get a real bunch of oddballs in the group, as well as some flat raters that just need to be avoided. Fun times though a few games are already down the drain from probing opponents.

I'm around if you still need a reserve, have some free time so finally back on CC.

Sorry bud, but i'm not looking to make targets atm, with winner takes all it kinda ruins the suspense.

Well that's hopefully the worst of it out the way for me, time to start working into the 20 point deficit.

Still a little early to bow out Lisbon, you're still inside of 30 points back from our leader at the moment which is usually the cutoff point when I consider these things. Just need a certain someone to either stop playing silly buggers entirely or stop only messing up two of the players in this ...

Lot of big gaps, one clear front runner and two chasers. Other five are pretty much treading water with a 20+ point gap from the leader.

Think you can work out rough placings from that.

Viker now 40+ points back from the leader, pretty much dead in the water courtesy of playing spoiler early in a lot of maps.

Three players have already been kicked out the back of the bunch, will be difficult for them to work back into it from a 20+ point hole.

I'll not be posting updates for this round as it's the finals and only one spot counts. You'll have to rely on others for your data.

Lisbon gets hit with the first attacks of the finals, let the fun begin.

Welcome back, has been chaos without you.

Good to see things moving, starting to feel like the Rockies here waiting for the other group.

Will be following the progress of my fellow group 1 players in Mike, will be funky if both Lisbon and Dan make it through for a rematch.
