It's all fun and games around here, no matter what Elric's sword may think. Don't beat yourself up about choosing real-life responsibilities over us. We'll be here when things get back to normal.

I don't want to throw (yet another) a wrench into the mix...but, the games that I replayed, have they, should they been/be removed from the totals?
I haven't' dug into the scoring much but I think my 'kills' are artificially higher than they should be since I had four kills in the games that were effectively made moot
Let me know, just don't want it to be an issue later on, and don't want to get credit for something I don't deserve.

Oh, and who is Marvin?

The 1st music I ever purchased was CCR Cosmos Factory on 8-Track tape ... I played it until my crappy 8-Track player ate it ... so I bought another and so on .
That piece of music has been on my play list for more then 40 years
and I predict after Charlie hands me 3 losses I will not drop a notch on the ladder reset

Aw c'mon. You play yourself a lot from what I hear.
Re: 2017 SoC 1v1 Ladder Reset Tournament
A player can win a medal based on the following Ladder Streak of games won 3 - 0:
7 matches - Bronze
10 matches - Silver
13 matches - Gold
17 matches - Platinum
I am sure this won't be achieved by anyone as threshold is too high, you need to go 21-0 in a row to get the medal. If it is 7 wins in a row but no need to be 3-0, it would be much more feasible to earn.
Some interesting idea for extra medal would be for player who achieved at least a win versus every opponent (have never lost 0-3).

Oops ... my bad ... I am guessing that would be for the best instead of throwing out invites this close to the Holidays
If I here different I will gladly put up the next round of games.
Truly sorry everyone... Guess I sorta fell asleep at the wheel

SoC LADDER RESET UPDATE
We are way behind schedule on the Ladder Reset. Originally, we were hoping to be winding this up in January/February 2018, but at the current rate, we won't be finished until May/June 2018.
Several issues led up to this delay:
We have ten rounds left to play.
ETG will send out the next set of invites around January 15, 2018. You will be playing two rounds every week. Everyone in the Ladder Reset is a Premium member, so there is no concern of a Freemium.
This should us on track to finish by the end of February and restart the new Ladder.
A PM will be sent to every member in the SoC Ladder Reset shortly.

We are way behind schedule on the Ladder Reset. Originally, we were hoping to be winding this up in January/February 2018, but at the current rate, we won't be finished until May/June 2018.
Several issues led up to this delay:
- 1. The hurricanes (specifically Andrew) caused us to lose almost four weeks while our players within the disaster area took care of their families. Family always comes first in my book.
2. Players not accepting invites. Moving forward, if you do not accept your first invite, ETG will send another. If you do not accept that second invite, you will forfeit that game.
3. Players missing turns. Nothing can be done about this. If you are kicked from a game for missing turns, that game will not be recreated.
We have ten rounds left to play.
