Tie-Breakers

Game B: Game 10461654
Game C: Game 10461656
Seed-breaker game:
TBD (Winner of Game A vs. Winner of Game B).
11 players were tied with 10 wins, 11 losses. The tie-breaker format, proposed by the tournament organizer and agreed upon by a majority of the tied players, includes 2 4-player Standard games and 1 3-player Standard game (all games on the Classic map). The winner of each game advances to the Playoffs (since there are 3 seeds). The winner of the 3-player game receives the #32 seed, and the two winners of the 4-player games play 1, 1v1 game to determine the #30 and #31 seeds.
It sure was dramatic! Very well played series by cpmucha, that was a lotta fun
Yes, cpmucha was a very worthy opponent who just as easily deserved that spot in the Quarterfinals (round of 8xman5151 wrote:It sure was dramatic! Very well played series by cpmucha, that was a lotta fun

As usual, our final two warriors will labor through at least four ferocious fights, perhaps they'll even endure the maximum seven encounters, before we find our victor.I LOVE it, great stuff James!WorldCup4James wrote:520 days, 748,800 minutes, 12,480 hours, 44,928,000 seconds since the start of Round 1, it is my great privilege to announce that our esteemed group of 56 has now been whittled down to the elite final two!

In a few short days, it will be a great honor to write upon this magnificent trophy...ophy...phy...the name of our champion, be it our number 2 seeds deanof7...eanof7...of7...7...or the number 7 seed, xman5151...man5151...5151...51...
Okay, enough with the echoing!
A look at the competitors
- deanof7 placed second throughout the round-robin phase with 15 wins, 6 losses record (incidentally, the same number of wins as first place), and eased through the knock-outs. His better seed gives him first map choice, as well...
- xman5151 finished with 2 fewer wins during round-robin, but, as a Colonel, has the leg up on both rank and number of games completed...
Both are overqualified for the medal, but they have not yet faced the stiffest competition yet: each other.
I'll be sitting back and enjoying these games with an ice-cold cola.
The Cup Championship hereby commences!

For that, you can't just say it's the dice that sent you to the trophy... ), granting all of you free passes, so to speak, to all my future tournaments. I guarantee they won't take as long.
