I finally broke my losing streak, beating Capt. Pollution 158-142. I may have put him out of the tourney though.

I made a gamble that I would be able to either close a giant city or at least make it harder to finish, as I only needed a city or field and kept getting roads all game long, so it was time to get something else...
I got a 4-roads tile :O

It was a pretty road-heavy game, yes.

It's been about two weeks since my last prodding, so before I start I'd like to thank those of you who got games in since then. Still a little ways to go so let's try to wrap it up as soon as possible. Thanks.
Only six games have been played in the last two weeks...so we still have 21 remaining. Again, if you have 20 minutes and you see someone you need to play while in the IRC, don't be shy; ask for the game. If you're not sure who you still need to play, just remember you have to play everyone twice and everyone you have already played is listed in the standings.
Valdronius - 9 games remaining
Shardea - 8 games remaining
ChaoticIgnorance - 8 games remaining
ZeroX600 - 6 games remaining
lavalarva - 5 games remaining
Sehkmaenzo - 5 games remaining
Klimbatize - 1 game remaining

Got one of those games out of the way, with my match against Vald. I won it, 237-191.

I heard a rumor that Chaotic Ignorance dropped out? If that's true what do we do about the rest of his games?

Yeah, that's true... I never played him. So I dunno what that's going to do to the standings...

I had not heard that he was quitting. I had asked in the original post for people to follow through with all their games if they were going to join, so I hope he reconsiders. He still has a shot at the tourney, and even if he didn't, it's still fun to play the game. Besides, most of his games are against the people that are high in the standings...if he does average the rest of the way he could still make the top 8.
If he doesn't complete his games I'm not quite sure what I'll do now as that does make the schedules unfair. We'll see.

Double post, but that's because I want to make sure people see this.
I'm considering adding a Consolation Tourney for the four people who miss the main tournament. That would give people who started out slow record-wise something extra to play for if they would like.
I figured it might be a good idea because the main purpose of this competition was to learn or play the game for fun. This would also give a shot at redemption for the people who fell just short of the top eight.
Can I get some feedback on this idea?

I'd be down for a loser's lounge match
Like, 85% of all the Toulouse matches I've ever played were for this competition.... I could use the XP :O

I've heard the good news from Fern that Chaotic Ignorance is /not/ quitting the competition and will complete the rest of his games. Hurray!
That said, we're to the point where people need to start PMming each other to schedule times for you to get a game or two played. Please do me a big favor and contact any opponents you haven't played yet and let's try to get these games in over the next week. I think we're all anxious to get the tournament started.
Also, I will be doing Consolation bracket for the four teams who miss the tournament. It'll be single elimination, with the Final being a Best of 3 match.

Another week, and only three games were played. However, Vald was in all three of them so he is no longer lagging behind. Thanks for playing all of those games.
We still have 18 games left. Let's do this!
Here are the people who still have games remaining, and who they need to play. If you haven't already, PM the people listed next to your name to schedule a time. At the very least, post in this thread when you are or expect to be in the IRC so people can try to come in at the same time. Much appreciated.
ChaoticIgnorance (8 games remaining): lavalarva (2), Sehkmaenzo (2), Shardea (2), Valdronius (2)
Shardea (6 games remaining): ChaoticIgnorance (2), Sehkmaenzo (2), ZeroX600 (2)
Valdronius (6 games remaining): ChaoticIgnorance (2), ZeroX600 (2), lavalarva (1), Sehkmaenzo (1)
ZeroX600 (6 games remaining); lavalarva (2), Shardea (2), Valdronius (2)
lavalarva (5 games remaining): ChaoticIgnorance (2), ZeroX600 (2), Valdronius (1)
Sehkmaenzo (5 games remaining): ChaoticIgnorance (2), Shardea (2), Valdronius (1)

Do to time constraint, ChaoticIgnorance is going to drop out of the competition, and Fernin will play out the remainder of his schedule. So, if you still need to play Chaotic, hit up Fern with a game. Thanks.
I've also PMmed Zero to find out what's up with him. Hopefully I won't have to deal with two dropouts, but we'll see.

I beat Vald, but forgot to write down the final score... I /think/ it was 184-156, or something thereabouts.
