Yes, I was thinking 2-3 weeks after all of the matchups are decided. But would we rather speed that up so we can get to a break afterwards? Or would you rather have a little longer break now and push a summer break back a bit more?

Quarter Finals comprise 40 games, with the Semis & Final each comprising 60. On this basis it may be better to run with the next round of games as soon as possible and then take a break prior to the demands of a 60 game series. Chances are by month's end you'll know who has gone through to the next round, even if a handful of games are still active.

I agree with this. I just wanted to hear others' opinions. Many have stated they would like a break over summer so for that reason I am assuming more people would like to push ahead with the next round so we can get more of a break in the summer.

Congrats reptile. The next round will probably start a couple of weeks after all of the victors are decided.

quarters are looking much like:

(5)LOW vs (4)IA

(3)EMPIRE vs (6)KoRT
(7)ID vs (2)TOFU

could this be any better? =D> i dont think there are any clear favorites in this one. maybe only slight advantage for THOTA, like 60-40, but the rest is 50-50. enjoyable =D>



Freak the way you and Endzone are playing right now in the tourney's, I am not sure we are even favored.

great playing as always, cheers.

Thanks for ruining my 100% predicting record for the CC! :cry: Did someone in your clan win premium membership due to a bet on this?

I have updated the bracket on the 2nd post with all of the challenges that appear to be over. I did not update a winner from TOFU and the BotFM as that challenge is a little farther behind.

Everyone who knows their next opponent should go ahead and prepare. I will set an official date as soon as the winner of that last challenge is decided.

Good news is that since we are the lowest "ranked" clan, I will never have to run a thread in this tournament! I call that a MoW win 8-) WOO GOO!!!

While it's quite likely IA is going to win the round, AoC just took the last 3 finished games (one of which we Agents had thought was 'lost' to us several rounds ago).
Standings are currently IA 20- AoC 15 (the official thread hasn't been updated today to show our latest win, but it will be).

Until IA wins its 21st game, AoC still has a chance to tie. :-$ Just no chance to upset :cry:

I apologize for updating that too early stahrgazer. I for some reason thought the 21st game was over. I don't mean to call anything too early.

A Round 1 update that had several-day-old (about a week old, actually) scorings. And the talk with turtle section used mainly the bogus, none of the serious, questions, so why bother?

Always good to see we have readers. :) Real life & shifting deadlines make it hard to be bang up-to-date with scores - only had time to check the thread headings in the last 24 hours before it went out. We focus on getting the overall results right, letting players tell their stories & sharing some of the highlights with our readers, some of whom may not be picking it up from the threads which have a drama all of their own.
