I must admit, the great Barfus duo going down after such stellar showing in Random League has me baffled

Second round is being sent out to the matchups that are ready!

[Swimmerdude99]

Still waiting on a couple matchups to finish from the first bracket, once they do, I'll get the final 4 Matches sent out.

6/8 Matches Winner's bracket is sent out
6/8 Matches Loser's bracket is sent out.

Good luck!

Ark Angel and Ruffington has finished our game after a hard fight so you can send out games for us

[Nut Shot Scott]

We also finished our final game.

Roshambo Dynamo is ready for round 2.

zzz any updates? Upsets I should know about?

Not sure if you can call it an upset rather than just difficult seeding, but Shannon and jimboy beat T4 and rousseau.

That's a pretty good one! And yeah, you're right no one has an easy matchup

[Swimmerdude99]

Thanks for the updates, Second batch of round 2 games are out! Loser's bracket and Winner's brackets are in full swing, now.

[Heads or tails]

Can I ask what is the point in the losers bracket?
I could see a point if the winner entered the quarter finals of the winners bracket or something... But there is nothing to gain from winning the losers bracket? You would still rank lower than someone who won first round and lost second. Yet winning round 1 is substantially less difficult than winning the losers bracket. Just doesn't make sense to me. An explanation would help. Or is it just what it is?

The winner of the winner's bracket final plays against the winner of the loser's bracket final for the tournament victory. In some cases (idk how swimmer will execute here), if the winner's bracket team then loses the grand final they get a so called "bracket reset" which prompts a rematch. The term "double elimination" is often used to describe these brackets: lose twice, you're out.

What he said ^^ If you take a look at the challonge link you should be able to see that described in how the winner of the loser's bracket gets to play for the championship.

[Nut Shot Scott]

Uh oh... Roshambo Dynamo are looking for the finishing crotch shot on ol' jimboy and Shannon...

[Swimmerdude99]

Just two undecided matches! Will try to get the others sent out tomorrow or Friday!

[Swimmerdude99]

The loser's bracket awaits its four competing teams who are still duking it out! Two will survive, and two will take their seats with heads hung low...

TheJonah, DukeHazzard vs rousseau72 and t4

unai, Zabeast vs Barfus

Well that's just Genius. Whoever came up with that system should be congratulated. Here I was thinking I was playing for nothing. Definitely a step ahead of my thinking.

[Swimmerdude99]

All four winner's bracket matchups have completed, I will send out invites for those, Losers Round 3 is still waiting to start as two matchups are just now beginning. Will probably be a bit until Losers Bracket catches up. Will send those out when they are all ready.

Barfus has been eliminated

[Swimmerdude99]

Second round of losers bracket is finally coming to a close. Couple games going to round 20. Will get the third round for losers bracket going sometime this week or this weekend.

I prefer the term 'Playing just for fun' bracket instead of 'losers' bracket, or even 'A for Affort' bracket. or 'winners-in-waiting' bracket.

winners-in-waiting is most accurate.

I don't make the rules, I just... oh wait... I do. I declare you a loser!

winners-in-waiting is most accurate.

The winners are most certainly gonna be in waiting... I didn't realize these loser folk would take so many extra rounds

[hopalong]

choose love, swimmer! it won't hurt you.
