Also I want to remind all those still fighting for the third round, there are only 4 wildcard spots and 6 teams vying for them so round counts are going to come into play. Even if you're losing make those games last and it could get you into the next round.

Gilligan's team is still in, as we have not eliminated them yet. I believe you meant to highlight the first two teams in your "2nd Round Results", not our match-up.

Thanks mate, looks like I jumped the gun a bit on that one.

Well your premonition held true. Thanks for the vote of confidence as we have officially won that match-up. Bring on the next round.

Just a couple games left before I can start the third round up, expect those invites soon.

by **perchorin** on Sat Jun 30, 2012 10:02 pm

One game still outstanding, but it looks like it may take a while.

by **perchorin** on Thu Jul 05, 2012 10:00 pm

Alright fellas bear with me here, things are gonna get messy.
We've got four wild card spots to fill for the third round. Two of those spots have been claimed by 'small pox, m00nzie and carp1968' (they played a total of 20 rounds in round 3) and the loser of Game 11272144 (24 rounds and counting). Unfortunately and somewhat surprisingly four teams are tied at 19 total rounds and we only have two spots left. Therefore those four teams will now play a single tiebreaker game against one of the other 19 round teams and the winners of those two games will get the final two spots in round three.

There were 4 items in your list. Here they are in random order:

The Pom, Vid_FISO and jpk
jgalioto, bigragooch and Col. Wm. Colvill
hiitsmestevie1, Xx TrustME xX and Master Chief
Gilligan, Tripitaka and freyme

Invites will be sent out shortly. Also tough luck to the team of 'macbone, lt. Futt and Deli' who made it to three games but only played a total of 18 rounds. Thanks for playing guys!

Actually I'm going to go ahead and make round three today, two of the teams will have to wait for their opponents but the rest of us may as well forge ahead.

I know it's bet of 3, and you set 2 games for a match-up.. then if the two teams are tied, you sen a tie-breaker... but if you start all 3 games from the beginning, things will go a lot faster instead of waiting for the original 2 games to finish then send a tie-breaker and wait again till it finishes too.

Just saying

Just saying

The rounds count towards wild card advancement. It doesn't work, unless it is designated which game is the 3rd game, and players know that it doesn't count if the first 2 games are won by same team,

didn't know this fact!

by **perchorin** on Tue Jul 10, 2012 2:17 am

Congratulations to the teams of Gilligan, Tripitaka and freyme and xman5151, agentcom and benzorrr for claiming the final spots in round three. Invites are sent and round three is fully underway.

by **perchorin** on Wed Jul 25, 2012 11:10 pm

Hey guys, I just sent a bunch of game three's out today. Some of them may end up being irrelevant but I'm going on vacation for 3 weeks starting tomorrow. This way, regardless of how the first two games have gone, we'll be ready to jump right in to round four as soon as I get back. Hope nobody minds, thanks for hanging with me!

by **perchorin** on Thu Aug 30, 2012 1:51 am

I'm back from journeys far and wide, sorry for the month long hiatus folks but thanks for sticking with me! We're down to the final ten teams so things should start moving at a much faster clip from this point on. We do have the participants of round four set. The eight winning teams were led by shoop76, arno30, Kingm, kennys777, dowian2, xman5151, hwhrhett and reptile. They will be joined by the wild card teams of small pox and Enormastitz, who both had round totals of 23 get them through. Round four will be organized and invites sent out by no later than 24 hours from now, and ideally much sooner depending on work. Good luck everyone and thanks for playing to the teams we're leaving behind.

Apparently it's a productive day for me--round four games made and invites sent. Good luck everyone.

Perch,
the 2nd post in the thread confuses me.

that's all

Yeah I need to get around to updating that mess. You guys are in the next round though!

As I see it now, we're only a few days from being able to start round 5, I'll clean things up then I promise!

by **perchorin** on Tue Sep 25, 2012 9:27 pm

Just an FYI, one game still ongoing in round 4.

That game is now over, and we have our six teams ready for round five. Congrats to all who have advanced, thanks for playing to those who didn't. Information is now on the moderately cleaned up second post of this thread. Invites coming shortly.

by **perchorin** on Sat Oct 13, 2012 7:35 pm

We have our first team to make the final four, congratulations to shoop76, spitemalice and hambone! =D>

Unfortunately they did this by eliminating my brother Dragoons :cry:

See you in Valhalla boys!

by **perchorin** on Wed Oct 17, 2012 12:16 am

Round six invites have been sent out. Remember there are no more wild cards. Win and you're in the finals, lose and you're out. Good luck to our final four!

by **perchorin** on Sun Nov 11, 2012 8:50 pm

Now it's time to say goodbye to the team of shoop76, SpiteMalice and hambone. They came so close yet were ultimately still too far away. That means it's finally Finals Time! Enormastitz, Tin Trumpet and Terry Nutkins wil face off against the well rested team of dowian2, Denise and mkcummins for all the marbles! First two games coming forthwith. Third game (if necessary) will be on the map chosen by our loveable third place losers.

Yep, I forgot the format of my own finals...will get those last games out as soon as the teams involved have chosen their maps. That little fact totally slipped my mind until just now so sorry for the delay (and for being a dumbass) :oops:
