Scoreboard updated. Both matchups have finished their first semifinal game, second sent out.

I'm sorry about the delays, sadly I have no excuse, except that I'm struggling with motivation to keep up with my duties of running my tournaments. I will not bail on you, that much I know but I cannot promise that the pace of how I run things will change. So I hope you'll stick with me until the end of the tournament.

I always give the teams a chance to pick their replacement and won't force them to use any of the reserves from the list. This is how it works mostly in team tournaments - team captain picks their replacement player and not the tournament organiser.

Thanks again,
