Ascension - GWJ vs Qt3

Sounds good.

I will have a LOT of time on my hands for the next week (well, a lot of time for 15 second turns) so feel free to play me as many spots as you need, Gwinn.

If this were a four-man tournament, oily would dominate. Dude has owned a 4-man series we have going something like 75% of the time, which would be awesome against one opponent. It's downright immoral against 3!

I'll happily play multiple games.

I think I got this right. Everyone's in at least twice.

Go team go! I'm looking forward to the gruesome details.

Good luck everyone! We're counting on you

[size=1]No pressure[/size]

This tournament format kind of confuses me. Guess I'm used to brackets and Swiss.

Fedaykin, just challenge the people below you (that would be triggercut1 and HHPre). The people above you will challenge you. If you lose both games at either spot (that is, if you lose to both soonanother and triggercut1, or both tomwchick and HHPre), then you're out. Otherwise, you'll be in Round Three!

See the previous post (which I wrote to Fedaykin) for help if you need it! Otherwise, treat this just like Round 1, except you appear in multiple spots.

I'm doing my part. I just beat HHPre while my wife preps for surgery. I'm either the best almost-dad or the worst.

86-73 I think? It ended a lot closer than I thought.

Yay you avenged me! What was the score?

How did the rest of life (beyond Ascension) go? Hope wife + baby are doing well!

Awesome! I, too, played iOS games in the delivery room (3.5 mos. ago).

In a fit of hubris... there's a thread for that =)

Torq 70 - 90 WilyKat

This was one of those games where you felt there was nothing you could do. Wilykat had a 5 apprentice start going first and nabbed a Wolf Shaman and Spike Vixen. My 4-1 start left me the choice of Reclamax, Rocket Courier, or Ygdrasil Staff. I took one turning up another Wolf Shaman for him, and the theme went on from there.

With more pages than this thread!

Ananab Tilps - Could you update the OP by adding the new ladder, and perhaps the format as well? Thanks!

HHPre did for me.

(That means I lost.)

Challenges to Ephraim and Congestion.

This is your time, brother!

I tried to update the original post with the round 2 rankings, but keep getting this error message:

An illegal choice has been detected. Please contact the site administrator.

I thought it might be because I finally got privileges, like quoting and bolding, so the site was complaining about my [Q] and [G]. But now I see here that it has no problem with those symbols.

Any thoughts?

Update: I just tried deleting the entire OP and replacing it with "hello world", and still got that error. Is there some kind of prohibition that kicks in that prevents a poster from editing a post too many times?

You might PM Certis and ask, for I've no idea.

I just beat jorune2112 80-62

Just won a close victory over TimothyS, 80-77.

It's your day, I tell you!

And good job to you, too, Zelos!

Mr. Swee beat me 60-58

Justin Fletcher barely defeats Ephraim, 72-69, not being aware that my opponent had a metric ton of deck honor to almost compensate for my monster-killing lead in star honor.

Whew.
