No problem, I expect you to fight to the very last man. I'll find something for rocky8179 to do until you guys finish, no worries.

ahah do that :d. Well i'm a big fan of the point system in here<; there should be more like that. Personally the one game-winner only games are not as much about skill as this one.
Cause you sometimes have good dice and a good start placement. In this one it evens more out, it's more about strategy and skill :d. You can winn a few gamles because of lucky dice and start position but you'll have to be constantly giving the ebst of yourself to advance :d.
Thx!!

I've heard the same thing from a lot of players. I'm hoping to come up with a good theme for another one similar to this when this one is all said and done.

True. But if I was premium I would go mad with all the games I would play at the same time. :twisted:

I think I'll go watch the Italian Stallion again. Sounds like a good idea.

The real question here is whether or not you would be against someone purchasing premium FOR you, actually......

Hmm.....well actually....no. I wouldn't. I only don't cuz I know it would consume all my free time but if someone else wants to punish me by giving me premium.....sigh...then so be it.

I've updated the standings, but there are no new players that have qualified for the finals yet.

Standings have been updated and Chalupacabra won the last game of his division to steal the 4th spot in the final group.

Now we just need Group A to finish their last game to determine who round out our Top 6.

Regards, Optimus Prime

Optimus Prime · Post by **Optimus Prime** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 4:20 pm

I just checked in on the last remaining game for Group A, and there is no change for the time being. It is pretty much deadlocked at the moment.

Regards, Optimus Prime

There has finally been at least one elimination from the final game. rspatel was eliminated and has therefore been eliminated from the tournament. You played well, rspatel. It was a pleasure to have you.

Standings have been updated.

Congratulations to luckywar, negoeien, Chalupacabra, Lucky Se7en, Gypsys Kiss, and rocky8179 for advancing to the final round of the tournament!

It has been a long road so far, and these 6 players have proven their worth.

The numbers for the final 6 games have been sent and we will soon have a champion!

Regards, Optimus Prime

All games for the final round are now active. Good luck to everyone!

I have just checked in on the final round games and it looks like they are moving along quite nicely. Nobody has been eliminated and none of the games have finished yet. I will now be checking in on a weekly basis for the most part.

Please remember to post wins and results for the games in the thread. That will help me to know when an update is needed.

Regards, Optimus Prime

Optimus Prime · Post by **Optimus Prime** » Fri Nov 16, 2007 12:32 pm

No games finished from the final group yet.

Optimus Prime · Post by **Optimus Prime** » Mon Nov 19, 2007 2:04 pm

It appears that rocky8179 has quit the site after my gift of premium to him caused him to run into some bad dice. I apologize to all of you for having to deal with a deadbeat in all of the final games.

Gypsys Kiss · Post by **Gypsys Kiss** » Tue Nov 20, 2007 1:50 pm

not your fault OP. its a shame he was a good opponent and i enjoyed my games with him. maybe he will have a rethink.
