Okay, if this is the case, the score will now be 4-5, and I'll get another game out tonight.Morning Duk. I think its safe for you to put up another game in our Australian Open tourny. The one we are playing is fairly lopsided after 2 rds. thanks bud

More than likely.
I guess this final will just continue until one team is two points ahead?

Yes. There's also a requirement that you must have 6 wins to win a set, but at this point that's not a problem (If the score is 5-4 now, then one win for Jumbo's team will give him 6, and 2 wins for your team will give you six, and is also the minimum needed to start pulling ahead.) So, the short answer is yes.

I don't really care about the number of partners. It's more about putting that graft in just to get fucked over in the finals by incompetence.Dukasaur wrote:Considering the many partners you've had (more than anyone else in this tournament, due to several dropouts) I'm not surprised you're fatigued with having to adapt so many times. It's a remarkable achievement. You've come to the last hurdle in a very big tournament against great odds.iAmCaffeine wrote:This tournament has set a lovely precedent for me.

Wow, I can't believe we did it. Special thanks to my partner Big jumbo for grinding it out and carrying my butt more often than not. Also thanks to Duk for reviving this tournament and seeing it through to the end.Dukasaur wrote:Update November 14th, 2018
