Sonic's Decathlon (Winners in 1st post)

[sonicsteve]

just 1 other tournament, but with considerable amount of games, and more 2 with my brazilian friends

You've probably got a week or two before the next round comes out, but if you're in another tournament with lots of games, you'll either have to buy premium or drop out of one or both tournaments.

[Rih0]

I will drop the other one. the problem is that I don't think I will have 1 or 2 weeks for finishing those games.

hmmm - long jump has been running for 2 weeks with 2 rounds completed and the 3rd round underway. If there is some slow play then the result might be 3 weeks away...

The next event is the shot put, which only needs one slot, so depends how quickly you get down to 3 active games. Let's talk nearer the time.

scoreboards updated

[sonicsteve]

We had 3 dropouts in round 3.

I was only going to take reserves in ROunds 1 and 2, but I've looked at the balance of the games and the scoring system and it would give us a problem in fixing the scores for the 3 and 7 player games which we would have played. Also, 7-man feudal epic could give a player a starting advantage, given that there is no fog.

So, I've decided to allow reserves to come in throughout the tournament and have invited 3 reserves to join us from the shot-put onwards. there was a big pool of reserves after the tourney had filled and so far

babagonosh
JoshyBoy
gdbudman

have accepted.

thank you and welcome to the tourney.
