This is a survivor series tournament. Not a knockout.
Only for the bravest - 3 games each round on a random map.
2 Player. Premium Members Only.
Each Round up to the Quarter, Sem-Final and Final will be 3x2 player games. Quarter and Semi will be 5x2 player games and final will be best of 7.
To survive, you simply need to win one of your 3 games.
Scoring will be 3 points for winning all 3 games, 1 point for winning 2 games, 0 points for surviving and winning 1 game. If you lose all 3 you are out of the tournament regardless of how many points you have amassed.
The player with the highest cumulative points will get a bye in the next round. If points are equal it goes to the most points gained in the current round, then previous round then the one before that. If it is still a draw it goes down to who finished all 3 games first. To be clear, this is by time the games finish. So it's in your interest to play as quickly as possible.
If an odd number of players are left after that then the next highest scoring player will also get a bye.
Play continues until there are only 8 players left then it is a straight knockout in the Quarter, Semi and final. 5 games in the Quarters and Semi, and 7 in the final. If we go from 9 to 7,6,or 5 players remaining then the ioghest scoring player gets a bye like in previous rounds.

NOTE:
THE 12 HOUR RULE WILL APPLY. IF YOU JOIN THE GAME 2ND AND HAVE FIRST TURN THEN YOU MUST WAIT FOR 12 HOURS BEFORE TAKING YOUR SHOT SO THAT THE PLAYER GOING 2ND CAN SEE THE BOARD. YOU CAN ONLY TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE 1ST 12 HOURS IF THE OTHER PLAYER ADVISES HE HAS SAW THE BOARD IN THE GAME CHAT.
IF YOU TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE FIRST 12 HOURS WITHOUT THIS HAPPENING AND THE OTHER PLAYER COMPLAINS TO ME THEN YOU AUTOMATICALLY LOSE THAT GAME, GIVING YOUR OPPONENT A MAJOR ADVANTAGE.
TO BE CLEAR, JOINING THE GAME 2ND MEANS ACCPETING THE INVITATION AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED. I WOULD SUGGEST PLAYERS JOINING THE GAME AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED THE INVITATION SHOULD TAKE A SNAP SHOT BEFORE WAITING THE 12 HOURS.
So, who can survive to win???

So, who can survive to win??? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Round 1 UPDATE: And what an update it's going to be (-: Warning, the use of profane language for accentuation purposes is contained in this update. Do not read if you are easily offended. The story so far............................................................... Lots of Joint winners in this update........................................ - Joint Winners of being the Round Hero of Round 1 are big jumbo and Kotaro. Both scudding their opponents 3-0 very early doors. Getting a bye in Rd2 in the process. - murphy16 wins the 'odd man bye' if there are an odd number of players remaining in Rd 2. He beat Wheelwright and Mageplunka69 to it by a matter of hours. Other updates: - big jumbo Reads the Beano like a book and wins 3-0. (The Beano being a childrens comic book in Scotland). Beano66 Eliminated. - kotaro Takes care of ltndvm - kendoh99 scuds Craig25 2-1. Craig25 was 845 points higher ranked at the start of the tournament, but ken couldn't eliminate him/Me though (Thank Fcuk). - Mageplunka69 causes Major Upset. Mageplunka KO's TheRookThief (27th Seed) and ranked 717 points above him. But for anybody who knows the Thief. Random's aren't his thing. He specializes in 1 MAP. THE CLASSIC. He's a wizard on it. Better luck next time M8. And N1 for taking part. - wdraper causes Minor Tremor. Beats Lord Morgoth (4th seed) and 907 points above him 2-1. Both Survive though. - mint-murray. Murphy16 (19th seed) Got him in American Civil War Maps (2 off). mint-murray Eliminated. - Another Minor Tremor. RudeDude74 Beat uyumaykimaw 2-1. 773 points above him in the rankings. What a result. Higher ranked player is a survivor though. - 3xMinor Tremors so far! Toonarmy09 Beat Actorday 2-1, Acotrday being ranked 816 points above him. Couln't kill him though. Actorday through to Rd 2. I wonder if ActorDay is James Bond. If that’s the case nobody can kill him. - Wheelwright (16th seed) KO's Jonesthecurl. Tough draw for Jonesy. - The Deserters, those who joined the battle in the tournament page but wern't brave enough to accept game invites. Only 1/83, not bad troops: Tedspur Fog Rules: - Joint Winners of 'Numpty of the Round' goes to unionman, uglykiwi, GeneralBax and McDodge. All broke 'Fog Rules' and got tore into some games before their opponent could see the board. When each player received the 'Fog Investigation E-Mail' aka the 'Your'e Fucked E-MAil' there was varying outcomes. - Unionman took it like a man. Accepted responsibility immediately. Started 2 down v b00060 and it's probably going to cost him his Tourney Life. Better Luck next time M8. - The 'Your'e fucked E-Mail' inititally had an adverse effect on uglykiwi. But after a period of reflection (and actually reading the rules), he took the medicine option. He started 2 down v spider.ear. In the one game he didn't break the fog rules he looks to be in front so will probably survive. He gets a Yellow card in all Fog Tourneys now though. - McDodge, pretty much same as above. But not heard from him so he may well opt for the 'Nuclear' Option, but I am assuming it's the medicine. McDodge started 1-0 down v simplyred60. His 2 'live' games are too close to call, so he may well survive. Yellow card in all Fog Tourneys though. Yellow Card lasts for a resonable length of time, which happens to be the same length of time until I can be arsed removing it from my spreadsheets. - THE GENERAL GOES NUCLEAR. GeneralBax almost had an allergic reaction to the 'Your'e Fucked E-Mail'. Apparently the Rules that apply to the other 83 players do not apply to Genaral Bax. The General has left the building. Removed from all current and future Tournaments. He wouldv'e started the Round 2-0 down v Fuatpanza. And the funny thing is, he is scudding fuatpanza in the only game where he didn't break the fog rules so wouldv'e survived gauranteed. Obviously he didn't have the opportunity to break fog rules in that game as fuatpanza went 1st. (-: 'Live' Scoreboard is attached to the Tournament thread. Players with highlighted text Red have completed Rd 1 Games. Players names in Green/Yellow Blocks were involved in the 'You're Fucked E-Mails' scandal. Yellow Blocks = Yellow Card. Red Blocks, well you guys decide! Good Luck for the rest of Rd 1 Guys! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROUND 1 UPDATE (CONT): We have had the upset of the tournament and it's only Round 1!!!!!!!!!

Beat him 2-1, both survive though and the Trumpet continues to play! - All Black Rugby After performing the Haka at the start of his match up, KO's 49th Seed blonpina 3-0. It was a weird variation of the haka, it involved throwing dice in the air then trampling the Green playing pieces into the ground. - RYP (52nd Seed) Beats 10th Seed Shoop 2-1, Both Survive. - Loose Canon V Captain Mack, This match up reminds me of a newspaper article I read recently. 3D Printers can now print of a fully functional gun.

The General has left the building. - CaronylKluster safely through to Rd2, taking out the risk playing Mom, riskmom 3-0 - superchris33 (81st Seed) survives against RiverTwoForks ranked 1017 points above him. When the River was interviewed after the match, and a reporter asked why he couldn't win all 3?, he took it badly, replying "I couldn't give Two Forks" - navyac (82nd Seed and Underdog) survives against sonofabs ranked 1021 points above him.

YOU CAN ONLY TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE 1ST 12 HOURS IF THE OTHER PLAYER ADVISES HE HAS SAW THE BOARD IN THE GAME CHAT. IF YOU TAKE YOUR TURN IN THE FIRST 12 HOURS WITHOUT THIS HAPPENING AND THE OTHER PLAYER COMPLAINS TO ME THEN YOU AUTOMATICALLY LOSE THAT GAME, GIVING YOUR OPPONENT A MAJOR ADVANTAGE. TO BE CLEAR, JOINING THE GAME 2ND MEANS ACCPETING THE INVITATION AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED. I WOULD SUGGEST PLAYERS JOINING THE GAME AFTER THE FIRST PLAYER HAS ALREADY ACCEPTED THE INVITATION SHOULD TAKE A SNAP SHOT BEFORE WAITING THE 12 HOURS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ROUND 3 UPDATE: Round 3 is off to a flyer! 3 Players have been KO'd already. But before that................................................... We are in Round 3 and 2 EEdjits are still throwing away games and their Tournament Lives for Breaking Fog Rules. Absolutely mental! - RgrJoey001 Lost 2 games due to breaking fog rules and got a yellow card. Lord Arioch won the remaining 1 'live' game to KO Joey from the Tournament. Lord Arioch is in pole position on 7 points. But the elimination time still counts, so BOTH ROUND HERO BYES AND THE 'ODD MAN' BYE ARE STILL TO PLAY FOR. YOU NEED TO FINISH ALL YOUR GAMES QUICK THOUGH. - RickMorales Lost 1 game for Breaking Fog Rules. It will 99% end his tournament. So fog rules will cost him his Tournament Life. On top of that, he gets the mark of shame, a yellow card. Don't break the rules guys, you will get get caught. This is a good time to mention, there is another FOG Tournament starting (-: Bounty Builder - Survivor Series can be found on the Tournament Tab at the top of your page. Brand New Concept in CC Tournaments and it'll be a cracker, so join up Troops. Back to the good Stuff, Round 3 Highlights so far: - In one of the televised matches, Wheelwright (16th Seed) bets Craig25 (7th Seed) 2-1 to move onto 5 points. Craig25 remains on 1 point and expects another Tough Draw in Rd 4 as a result. - Decent result for 30th Seed MEP. Beats 12th Seed Keefie 2-1 to move up to 5 points. Keefie remains on 1. - 8th Seed All Black Rugby Scuds Marand 3-0 to move into Pole Position on 6 points after 3 Rounds. 23rd Seed Marand has had a Random Map shocker, exiting on 1 point. - 3rd Seed a6mZero is having a nightmare Tournament. It's almost as if he purposefully chose his username to reflect his tournament scores. He crawls into Rd 3 on zero. This rounds beneficiary of free ranking points was 33rd Seed Panzermeyer who beat Zero 2-1. - The 1st Player to fall in Round 3 was Loenatiek, who exits the Tournament on Zero points at the hands of TheFanny who's up to 5 points with the 3-0 win. - Larry46 gets off the mark in Rd 3 with a 2-1 win over 11Joan11. Joan remains on 2 points. - Silly Knig-IT gets off the mark in Rd 3 with a 2-1 win over Krolt. Other important Stuff: - Lord Arioch (Wrong predicted score in Rd 2, wins 2-1 instead of losing 2-1 v Shoop76, Score updated) 'Live' Scoreboard is attached to the Tournament Thread. Players highlighted Red have completed Rd 3 games. Yellow Blocks = The mark of shame. Of 84 Round 3 Games, 60, I Repeat SIXTY HAVE BEEN SCUDDED! If still playing, you need to speed up for the remainder of the Round Guys. Good Luck!!! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROUND 3 COMPLETE / ROUND 4 DRAW: Still people breaking Fog Rules in that Round Folks. But as we approach Rd 4, the lunatics may already be out (-:. I'd also like to say, some Tournament Organisers are very hesitant to throw someone out of their Tournament. Me???, My finger trigger is itching, so be wary folks. Red Card is Elimination from EVERY Tournament I am running, with a sprinkling of humiliation for good measure. Rant over, the remaining Rd 3 Highlights (-: - Predicted Result: And it's huge, TX AG 90 (1st Seed), KO's 11st Seed Loose Canon who exits on 4 points. Match Highlights can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3uL6SxD-Sw - 6th Seed the Tin Trumpet was a bit off tune in this Tournament to say the least. Got to Round 3 on 1 point, before he was eliminated by 14th Seed Avi80r who's up to a massivev7 points. Avi80r is flying and in with a shout for some sort of Bye. - Shoop76 (10th Seed) gets off the mark in Rd 3 with a 2-1 win over 24th Seed Dragon Dor. - Big Score here…..UYuMAyKimaw (32nd Seed), sends Rallister13 (17th Seed) to the rails in Rd 3. Rallister leaves us on 3 points, Kimaw up to 4. - Predicted Result: 52nd Seed RYP beats CaronylKluster 2-1. RYP up to 2, Carony remains on 3 points. - Predicted Score: There was no haggling in this match up, Barterer scuds the flip 3-0 to move onto a commanding 6 points. On the Survivor Series Super Sunday the flip has exited his 2nd Tournament. In his after match interview, The Flip said "What's flippin Super about it???" - In Rd 3 74th Seed Fraxal went up against 5th Seed GloriousL. Gorious was the heavy Favourite to win it with a Rank 1398 points higher. Frax survives though to make it into Rd 4 on 1 point. - 75th Seed ToonArmy09 survives against 9th Seed Bentelbow who was 1237 points HIGHER RANKED. Although the Toon Army went down 2-1, his fans remained Jubilant singing 'We shall not, we shall not be moved, we shall not, we shall not be moved, by the Bentelbows the Mageplunkas or the SpiderEars, We shall not be moved' - WeaselShane making steady progress. He beats NavyAC 2-1 to move up to 3 points. Navy was 1188 points lower ranked than Shane so Survival isn't a bad outcome at all. - RudeDude74 Eliminates Rick Morales.Rick Lost 1 game for Breaking Fog Rules. It ended his tournament. He lost hope. So fog rules cost him 3 games and his Tournament Life. On top of that, he gets the mark of shame, a yellow card. Don't break the rules guys, you will get get caught. - Silly Knig-IT gets off the mark in Rd 3 with a 2-1 win over Krolt. For games with predicted Resuts, I am setting up the Round 4 games tomorrow morning. So if they change before or after that they will be updated to actual scores. If by some miracle any eliminated players with a wrong predicted score survives they will be re-instated back into the Tournament. ROUND 3 SUMMARY: - Avi80r and Lord Arioch share the lead on 7 points. Both on a Round Hero Bye for Rd 4. - All Black Rugby shares 2nd on 6 points with 2 other players but courtesy of previous Round Results and Finish Time he wins the 'Odd Man' Bye. - 59 Runners started Round 3, 51 Survived. - Highest Ranked Eliminated so far: UcKuki (2nd Seed) - Lowest Ranked Player still surviving: NavyAC (Ranked 82/83), on 1 point. - Only 1 Player Surviving on 0 points and it's 3rd Seed a6mZero. His username wasn't picked to match his Tournament points tally after all. He's named after the Japanese 'Zero' Fighter in WWII, made by Mitsubishi. Now, 'Mitsubishi are so pishy' is a common phrase, but I'm not tempted to link that to a6mZero's Tournament Performance for the purposes of a cheap joke at all (-: ROUND 4 PREVIEW and DRAW: 'Live' Scoreboard and Entire Round 4 Draw is on the Tourney Forum, at the bottom of the lengthy 1st Post.

It goes back to Robert The Bruce, he was on the run, hiding in a cave. A Spider continually trying to Spin a Web, inspired him to continue the fight to keep Scotland a normal independent country. A victory he won in 1320 with the acceptance by the Pope of the Declaration of Arbroath.

Round 14 COMPLETE / Round 15 DRAW: 13 Players started that Round, lets see the highlights and how many made it to Round 15............................................. - 'The Tank', PanzerMeyer looks indestructuble in this Tourney. In Round 14 he blows Avi8or out of the sky with a 3-0 victory. It puts him on 14 points, the 14th seed departs on 15 points! A cruel Tournament Format! - Just the 58 Seeding places between 68th Seed Mageplunka69 and Shoop76. And this one doesn't go the way of the form book, Mag comes out the 2-1 winner, but Shoop survives to fight another day. - Our 19th Seed Murphy16 went down 2-1 to the 1st Seed TX AG 90, but with TX being 756 points HIGHER ranked, survival ain't bad at all. Round 15 PREVIEW: So only 1 player fell in the last Round, Avi8or. 12 Players are still standing. We need 4 to fall for the KNOCK OUT stages to begin. 71 Players have already been KO'd! Mageplunka69 is the DARK HORSE of the Tournament. Seeded 68 out of 83 Entrants he is the LOWEST RANKED Player still standing. And the will still be the case in Round 16, because he is the JOINT LEADER on 16 Points and get's the ROUND HERO BYE. That leaves 11 Players to fight it out. So, the 'ODD MAN' Bye is 'LIVE'. That goes to the other JOINT LEADER, Our 1st Seed TX AG 90 who is also on 16 Points. That leaves 10 Players to do Battle. It's 5 Match Ups consisting of 15 games. Entire DRAW is on the SCOREBOARD which attached to the Tournament Thread: The stand out tie of this Round is: Wheelwright (16th Seed) 15 Points VERSUS shoop76 (10th Seed) 11 Points Rd 15 Settings: Random 2 player Standard Automatic Adjacent (Random each round) Escalating (Random each Round) Foggy Remember the Fog RULE!

He takes out the 16th Seed Wheelwright to move onto 14 Points.Wheelwright was ALREADY on 15 Points, but goes from 15 to ZERO points in 3 games. Unlucky Wheel! - It could be KO TIME! With CaronylKluster's clinical KO of the 19th Seed Murphy16 we just need 1 more player to fall! - And sure enough CuriousOne1 obliged.........This game dragged on, but, at least we got a KO to take us into the KNOCKOUT Stages at the end of it! The 1st Seed TX AG 90 KO'd Curiousone1 who exited 1 Rd short of the Quarter Final. Very unlucky. But a very interesting fact about our unlucky 18th Seed. He is actually Bye Curious...................went 15 Rounds of Survivor Series Risk and not 1 Bye! QUARTER FINAL PREVIEW: We move from 83 Runners to the final 8. 75 of the best Risk players of the planet have already been eliminated. Only the best Random Map players go head up in the KO's!

SEMI-FINAL PREVIEW: The Quarters are ALMOST Over. 3 of them are decided, 1 to go. Here are the highlights from the completed Quarter-Finals: - Of all the players in these competitions, you don't want to meet Shoop76. This guy just refuses to lose! In a very tight Quarter Final 10th Seed played 12th Seed, and the 10th Seed came out on top. Shoop76 3 v 2 Keefie. Unlucky Keefie, you got one tough draw in the Quarters! - Tournament Organiser Craig25 Beings the 68th Seeds Mageplunka69's run to an end to reach the Semi-Final. In my after match comments, I said "Mag had a great Tournament run but being a QF I brought my A-Game to this and thankfully, I've still got the MAGIC. I am actually starting to think I could win one of my Tournaments without cheating...." - CaronylKluster's sitters broke the fog rules in 2 games. Panzermeyer got a 2-0 Startie in a 'Best of 5' Knock Out. 'The Tank' as PanzerMeyer is known, must have an Italian Tank. During WWII the Italians had the most advanced Tanks of the War, it's a little known Fact. So advanced, they actually had 14 Gears. 1 to go FORWARD, and 13 for REVERSE. And in this Quarter Final Tie, 'The Tank' managed to use all 13 of them. He LOST a 5 game KO with a 2-0 Startie 3-2. See above, PanzerMeyer Pumped! "Only for the bravest - 3 games each round on a random map." These were the 1st words uttered when I set up this Tournament. Since then we have went from 83 Runners to only the 5 remaining. True RISK Legends who have proved their mastery of the game on any MAP they play on. It has taken 724 games to get this far, but who can take the final step into the FINAL???? 5 games each will tell us..... Semi-Final 1: TX AG 90 v simplyred60 - THIS IS THE QUARTER FINAL STILL GOING ON.... WiNNER PLAYS the Mighty, All Conquering, Master of Disaster: Craig25 Semi Final 2: CaronylKluster v Shoop76 CK v 'The Shoopster' Ranking: 2151 v 3320 21 Points v 17 Points 38th Seed v 10th Seed History in 2 Player Games against Each other: CK=12 Wins, 'The Shoopster'=15 Wins. Well on the back of in-depth analysis which took weeks to compile on the most powerful Computing System on the planet, the Bookies have come to a conclusion and they have clear thoughts on who they thisnk is goin through. Analysis: 3320 v 2151 Ranking - That is a massive difference for CK to over come. 21 Points v 17 in this Tournament - The fact that CK has a lead shows he is more than capable of causing an upset here. 'The Shoopster; is WINNING 15-12 on the Head to Head History between the 2....... Odds: Shoop76: 4/7 CaronylKluster: 6/4 GOOD LUCK TROOPS! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE FINAL...........................
That was 2 thrilling Semi-Finals to set up a hum-dinger of a final. Hum-Dinger means very good if you are interested. The highlights:
- In a thrilling Semi-Final it is Shoop76 who progresses into the final versus the 38th Seed CaronylKluster. Best of Luck Caronyl!
- Craig25's quest to win one of his own tournaments without cheating, continues. 1st Seed TX AG 90 makes sure of that. TX wins the 1st 3 games in this Semi to set up a final with the 10th Seed Shoop76.
The Final Preview:
We started at 83 players. It has taken 729 games to get to the stage where only 2 heroes of the board remain standing. Our Final is:
Shoop76 v TX AG 90
10th v 1st Seed
20 v 25 Points
Results and play style have been analysed to see who is the pre-final favourite to win the 'Best Of 7' Final.
With the Tournament scoring, TX AG 90 looks to be the slight favourite. But, in 2 player games (not inv poly), this pair have played each other a massive 50 times so they know each other's strengths and weaknesses.
Of the 50 completed games, TX has won 26 and 'The Shoopster' 24.
So we do have a favourite but the truth is, these 2 are virtually unseperable!
ODDS:
TX AG 90: 10/11
Shoop76: Evs
Good Luck Troops, and FFS REMEMBER THE FOG RULE!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
***WINNER***
WOW, there has never been such a one sided final in the Survivor Series History.
It took no less than 736 games and 18 Rounds of Survivor Series Risk to get us down to 2 players.
It was either TX AG 90 or Shoop76 who would achieve RISK Super Stardom and win one of these Tournaments. But there could be only 1 winner......
Ladies and Gentlemen I give you our RANDOM MAP CHAMP, The Dutch Destroyer, Dances Like a Butterfly Stings Like a Bee, the Death Dealer, 'The Shoopster'.....
SHOOP76 He started off as only the 10th HIGHEST RANKED PLAYER!
Lets look at how he achieved this amazing victory...................................
Round 1 - Started off with a LOSS! - RYP (52nd Seed) Beats 10th Seed Shoop 2-1, Both Survive.
Round 2 - ANOTHER LOSS! - Lord Arioch 62nd Seed beats Shoop76. He was 915 Points lower ranked so winning 2-1 was an AMAZING result for 'The Lord'.
Round 3 - Shoop76 (10th Seed) gets off the mark in Rd 3 with a 2-1 win over 24th Seed Dragon Dor.
Round 4 - In an early preview of what turned out to be THE FINAL, Shoop76 spanked TX 2-1!
Round 5 - 10th Seed Shoop76 gets his 1st KO of the Tournament in Round 5. And it was cruel, he was on 2 points and faced 31st Seed WeaselShane who was on a massive 6 points. Means nothing now though. Shoop Spanks the Weasel 3-0.
Round 6 - 10th Seed Shoop76 shoots and scores. He picks up his 2nd KO of the Tournament, 46th Seed Larry46 the victim.
Round 7 - Wow, the lowest Ranked player still standing, not only survives but picks up a point as well! 75th Seed ToonArmy09 BEATS 10th Seed Shoop76 2-1. Shoop was a huge 1224 Points HIGHER Ranked! WOW!
Round 8 - ANOTHER LOSS versus the Avi8or!
Round 9 - He Scudded WheelWright 2-1 in this one!
Round 10 - Another point with a 2-1 WIN over SimplyRed60
Round 11 - ANOTHER 2-1 LOSS versus the Avi8or!
Round 12 - Some revenge, a 2-1 WIN over the Avi8or!
Round 13 - He was pumped 2-1 again by CaronylKluster.......How did 'The Shoopster' win this???
Round 14 - WTAF!: Just the 58 Seeding places between 68th Seed Mageplunka69 and Shoop76. And this one doesn't go the way of the form book, Mag comes out the 2-1 winner, but Shoop survives to fight another day.
Round 15 - HITS FORM AT THE RIGHT TIME: We very well could be heading for a Quarter Final Here….And Shoop76 our 10th Seed is looking very strong. He takes out the 16th Seed Wheelwright to move onto 14 Points.Wheelwright was ALREADY on 15 Points, but goes from 15 to ZERO points in 3 games. Unlucky Wheel!
Quarter Final - Of all the players in these competitions, you don't want to meet Shoop76. This guy just refuses to lose! In a very tight Quarter Final 10th Seed played 12th Seed, and the 10th Seed came out on top. Shoop76 3 v 2 Keefie. Unlucky Keefie, you got one tough draw in the Quarters!
SEMI-FINAL - In a thrilling Semi-Final it is Shoop76 who progresses into the final versus the 38th Seed CaronylKluster. Best of Luck Caronyl!
FINAL - Ladies and Gentlemen I give you our RANDOM MAP CHAMP, The Dutch Destroyer, Dances Like a Butterfly Stings Like a Bee, the Death Dealer, 'The Shoopster'.....
