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?

or may be a break before so that we can play the League finals in peace.
Life is what happens while you are busy playing Conquer Club.
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.

quarters are looking much like:
(1)THOTA vs (8)Nemesis
(5)LOW vs (4)IA
(3)EMPIRE vs (6)KoRT
(7)ID vs (2)TOFU
could this be any better? 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
Freak the way you and Endzone are playing right now in the tourney's, I am not sure we are even favored.

Thanks for ruining my 100% predicting record for the CC! 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.
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

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.

Nah, it's a good call, Chuuuuck... IA is too good for us to win all five of the final games. But I just had to tease ya!

And they did just take #21.
Congrats, IA, nice battling!
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.
