Sempai, do you still have reserve available for this tournament?

Don't worry about this tourney, Mad - I hate to break it to you, but you're playing your last match in this tourney.
France and Ecuador are guaranteed to advance from Group E.

The last group stage match has finally finished, and the first knockout round matchups have been determined!!
The matchups can be seen by clicking the link in the first line of the second post of this thread.
I am performing this weekend (opening night is about 18 hours away), so games may not be made for a few days.

Break a leg, sempai.

elonpuckhog has been so kind as to inform me that I have made an error.
For each Round of 16 matchup, I have created an extra poly 2 game and an extra poly 3 game instead of the 2 1v1s.
For the matchups between MEX-ESP and ITA-CIV, I was able to drop the two extra games.
For the other matchups, however, I was not able to do so, and since those games have started, they WILL count.

krkan09 (ESP) has allowed 3 sets of invites to expire and has forfeited his match.
MEX (wes.jackson24) advances to the quarterfinals with a 3-0 victory.

It has come to my attention that Leehar did not actually play any of his turns in his Round of 16 matchup, as he was away on vacation.
To ensure fairness, the match will be replayed when Leehar returns, which should be soon.
I apologize for the delay this will cause.

It seems I will win, but that should be confirmed later today after my next turn in the Poly(4) game.

After that win, the score will be 3-?, but Leehar won't have the ability to score enough to tie.

Just FYI, if you wanted to start the next round this weekend.

Thank you, but I'd rather wait until all games are finished before starting the next round - haste makes waste, as they say.

The semifinals have now completed, and the stage is set for the final, to be contested by MEXICO and the NETHERLANDS!

In the meantime, FRANCE and ALGERIA will play for 3rd-place.

mountain1024 (FRANCE) seems to have left CC, so ALGERIA (Anders2004) wins the 3rd-place game by forfeit.

The result of the final is a foregone conclusion at this point, but there is still one active game, so we will wait until that concludes before making the result official.
