Ascension - Qt3 vs GWJ

[Ephraim]

Ephraim defeats jonnypolite, 93-87. I honestly had no clue I was going to win, I had no clear strategy other than "don't lose". Good game, though.

[Justin Fletcher]

Whoa. I have yet to see that one.

He's one of the promo cards.

[Dave Perkins]

Oh, whew.

Mark Gray v shoptroll
Mark Gray v kincher skolfax

Sten Friberg v mrwynd
dannimal v mywynd

[Lantz]

shoptroll and I are working our way through the game. not on the best schedule, hopefully this weekend.

[dannimal]

Nothing to see here.

[Tom Chick]

Tom Chick lost to LeapingGnome (which you already have noted) and Tom Chick won against jonnypolite. So, that's good for half a w00t!

-Tom

[Dave Perkins]

Half a woot's all you need in this tourney!

[Nixxter]

NixxteR squeaks by (defeats) johnpetergrant, 71-69. Good game sir!

[Lantz]

HHPre over shoptroll 78-67. he had a promising lifebound hand generating points and was banishing the center row heavily, but I was still able to build some deck value and he had trouble trimming. Good game!

[Sten Friberg]

Congestion over mrwynd 81-69. GG.

[Jorune]

Jorune over MNGwinn 95-85

I was playing zelos but I'm not sure what happened. Did U win? Or did the game disappear?

[Dave Perkins]

Zelos says the score was 82-68 him, so it sounds like the game ended normally on his end. For now, I'll credit him with the win, and leave it that way unless I hear from either of you.

Just a few games left:

Josemas v LeapingGnome
Josemas v cyrax
Mark Gray v shoptroll
dannimal v mrwynd

[Josemas]

josemas99 defeats CyraxGWJ 78-59.

[Sten Friberg]

That means that all eight of the ousted players are from GWJ.

Not to take anything out in advance, but I'd say that this means that Qt3's status as home of the true game-nerds is unthreatened. Phew.

[Dave Perkins]

Crazy! Crazy awesome!

[dannimal]

MrDannimal defeats mrwynd, 107-75

Represent!

[Dave Perkins]

Just two games remain:

Josemas v LeapingGnome
Mark Gray v shoptroll

[Mark Gray]

Mr Swee defeats shoptroll 62 to 52

[Josemas]

Do we know how to get hold of LeapingGnome? I can try to synch up with him/her to finish the game live. I think our schedules are mismatched, I can only get online a couple of times a day and we are getting one turn a day at most.

It's a sad statement about my work schedule that Mr Swee is in Australia and we seem to play live games frequently, but I can't seem to make progress vs. people in my own Eastern time zone.

[Dave Perkins]

For the sake of everyone, I think I will call that game a draw, so that we can move on. LeapingGnome is on to the next round as his alternate personality anyhow, and to keep things fair, I'll let one of the GWJ substitutes play in the next round for their team.

Stay tuned!

[Dave Perkins]

[Dave Perkins]

I've posted our list to the GWJ form, and it's up to their captain, Chris Gwinn, to assign their players to alternate with ours.

I think it's downright cool that every single one of our players made the second round. I never would have predicted that. Thanks for screwing up the tournament, guys! :)

[Lantz]

Good job everyone! Brought the pain. Knocked out over half of them in one round!

[Chris Gwinn]

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