Okay! I will be trolling the chat for most of today while I madly write my thesis. Alow, if you're around, drop in and I'll play you. (Sorry about yesterday. I anticipated being on, but I literally did not sleep at all during the FTX Thurs-Sat, and I was pretty much dead to the world until the evening.)

I defeated SoldierHawk in a gruelling hour long match!

Ghandi! You kick their ass for me!

Sorry again guys.

Posted: Apr 20 2011 06:24 pm

Alowishus defeated BlazingGlory, so that means we have another playable match. All current matches that need to be completed are listed below and in the original post.

Ghandi (E1) vs lavalarva (E3)

Greg the White (S4) vs Not Sure (E4)

Klimbatize (N1) vs Alowishus (W2)

We're entering the homestretch, guys. We started with 20 participants, and are now down to only 7. Exciting, eh?

I defeated Alow in a barnburner. Neither of us were fooling around and this thing was a bloodbath from the get-go. It went 47 moves, but it also only took about 15 minutes to play...that's how fast we were playing. It was great.

I was white.

Thanks dude Smile

I was about to check my email and post this. As discussed in the chat, definitely a slick move with the undefended Knight.

Posted: Apr 23 2011 01:41 am

And now we're down to five. Thanks for getting those games in.

Two games can currently be played:

Ghandi (E1) vs Not Sure (E4)

Douche (W1) vs lavalarva (E3)

Title: Alexz Aficionado Joined: May 21 2008 Posts: 2889

Douche vs lavalarva for a Finals spot! Surprised

Good luck to both of you!

Front page brackets have been updated. I'm hoping to wrap this up in the next few days. Good luck the rest of the way.

No problem Smile

. Glad you enjoyed it. I've had a great time with it, too. I think it's gone pretty well.

Posted: Apr 28 2011 03:46 pm

lava and Douche, if you haven't already contacted each other about scheduling a game, please do so. Ghandi and I are playing this weekend, so maybe we can complete all the remaining games over this weekend.

Guess what? I was up a rook and a knight to Ghandi...and I made one of the stupidest mistakes ever. I'd post the move log but I had to leave the room before I killed myself in shame. Ghandi will post it, I'm sure.

FUCK!!!!

EDIT: Oh good, he posted it. Have a good laugh, all.

Damn, I really wanted another shot at Douche, too. We're 1-1...but his win is when it counted.

2ND EDIT: One match can be played. Loser finishes in third place, winner faces Douche in the Final.

Ghandi (E1) vs lavalarva (E3)

OMG that was AWESOME! Is this like an automatic thing (like, did you just throw in the log) , or did you replay the whole game? Either way, I really appreciate it, the game was awesome!
