scoreboards updated

[sonicsteve]

just one game still to finish in Round 5

[sonicsteve]

Apologies that the Round 5 final update has been slow - real life got in the way somewhat.

43 of the 80 starters are still alive as we enter Round 6. Only 40 players will be needed to fill the 5 games, so 3 players will get byes from random.org. I have removed the players who have already received a bye before randomizing the list. As before, the last 3 players listed will get byes.

There were 38 items in your list. Here they are in random order:

hmmm - sonicsteve last on the list. I actually considered re-running it to avoid suspicion...but I'm not gonna throw away a bye! I was at my daughters school fete last week and the headmaster won the biggest prize in the raffle, very embarrasing but i didn't see him rushing to give the cash back

[sonicsteve]

After adding back the players who had already received byes, the randomised list of 40 players looks like this, invites coming soon:
