[dogzbloodz]

I'd like to join

[Peter Gibbons]

can i have the last spot please

pappascarf gets the final spot. The two who posted after him will be reserves, sorry.

[Peter Gibbons]

Groups are drawn and announced in the second post. Will send games after privileges are granted. Good luck to all.

[Peter Gibbons]

Issued direct invites (second and final call) to players that still haven't joined games. If they don't join by tomorrow, will go to reserves.

[Peter Gibbons]

J_A in as a reserve. But danryan dropped out and we need another reserve (since the player above is not a premium). I'm working on it, guys. But if you have any people you know want to play, please let me know.

And the first round is finally off like a herd of turtles. Sorry for the delay to those in that group.

The first round should take quite some time. And this will be very hard to score regularly, due to so many terminator eliminations. I will try to make sure each group is updated as it winds to a close so people know the situation, but as always in tournaments like this I have to implore everyone to pay attention to the scoring themselves because it's possible updates will lag up to several days. I'll aim for making the first update this Friday.

Can you update the score for Group C? Also I'm the replacement in that group so it needs to be updated.

Thanks

[Peter Gibbons]

Ok, the second update is complete--sort of...

Groups A and C are fully updated as of a couple minutes ago. Groups B and D are updated with all completed standard games; those two are a bit less further along and it takes quite some time to go through and update terminator scores, so I want a few more games to finish before I tackle those groups.

Will plan to take a stab at this again on Friday.

this is to inform you that i won game # 6364962.

[Peter Gibbons]

Ok, a massive and full update has been accomplished. All finished games have been logged on the scoreboard. One key clarification, before anyone asks: that means that if a game is not finished, the terminator points have been removed from the board (so 2 players actually lost points since the last update). Those points will be restored when the game is finished.

So, as of this moment, the groups stand as follows:

Group A: Complete
Group B: 15 points remain (Germany Standard)
Group C: Complete
Group D: Complete

That should give everyone a clear picture of where the groups stand.

EDIT: updated again as of 3/15

[Peter Gibbons]

Three of four finals qualifiers known. Really tight race for the last spot in Group B.
