Yep 4-0 the first 2 rounds. They're doing well

[kratos644]

We're nearing the end of round 2. Will update things tomorrow.

Terminators take 3 of 4 from Ginger Nation.
That makes us 1-1 against other teams and 4-4 overall.
Good games with G.N. we got lucky in the last game.

Okay looks like everything should be finished by the weekend hopefully. I'll be gone at a work conference til Sunday night and my internet access is usually iffy so let's plan on new games going out Tuesday to Wednesday.

[kratos644]

Got some sent out. Now I need to go to class and I'll send more after.

[kratos644]

Remainder of the games will be out by the end of the day today.

[kratos644]

All games are out

[Electricksabers]

No one every joined our games.

All games are out

We are still waiting on two of our opponents and it's been over a week:

"If a game is not joined by all players within 48 hours, I reserve the right to cancel the game and count it as a lost game for the team(s) that did not join it. At the very least I will deduct at most .5 points from the teams score and give them an additional 24 hours if no prior arrangements are made. If there is still no attempt at contact within 72 hours there will be no excuses at all, the game will be deleted and the team will receive -.5 for each game I had to delete."

The penalties have been placed. I just haven't deleted games. Will get to that.

Not sure if you checked all games, but ours are still waiting as well.

OK-so what is the deal here--how many points do we lose? Do we still get to try and win the games or not? I apologize that I somehow forgot to invite my teammate--totally my fault and will except the penalty but we are in the games and playing them. Please let me know.

As long as all the games finish or get to the point where they can be considered one way or another new games will go out Sunday

[kratos644]

A couple games still up for grabs. Once they finish I'll send out new games.

Are teams being eliminated in rounds? Is there a reason that we have to wait for a round to finish before starting the next one?

[kratos644]

The reason is because of the swiss bracket style. Since it pairs teams based on results things have to be done properly. The ones that I said I couldn't call yet should be callable by tomorrow or wednesday at the latest.

why use that bracket style....makes for a slow tournament. i believe your initial prediction for this tournament was 3 to 6 months

The reason for using that bracket style is it makes for more even match ups. It does take a little longer, yes, but part of the longevity is due to the beginning when I was moving very slowly. The last couple rounds have went by at a good speed and if it becomes necessary adjustments will be made.

[kratos644]

Alright my net has been a little messed up lately. I think I should be able to call all the games now so I'll make games when I get home from school later tonight for break where the internet connection will be better. I plan on having all games out by around midnight my time but at the very latest before I go to bed.

[kratos644]

Team Sweden manages to stay undefeated at 12-0 for the individual games taking a 2 point lead over the team in second. As far as matches go we still have 11 undefeated teams.
