For those that lost their lives on 9/11/01, for all those heroes who sacrificed everything that day, and for all those who continue to sacrifice their lives day in day out in the name of freedom, we shall never forget.

God Bless the U.S.A.

Congratulations to Bonobo, who has won the Presidential Elections and become President after Round 2, gaining him another 2 points.

Here are the updated standings boards:

show: Final Round 2 Board

show: Updated Point Totals

I am awaiting to hear if Bonobo will change a setting, which he is allowed to show his power as President. Once I hear back I'll begin Round 3 of 10; hopefully we'll begin again in the next few days.

Round 3 is underway for all players who did not secure a Governor/President position last round (that would be all but 4 players: those 4, through their strong performances last round, begin player later in the round).

Players have been randomly placed into either a 4-player or 3-player game in their region.

Bonobo, our second President elected in the tournament, did not indicate a setting change, so the settings will remain status quo.

It is interesting to note that Chicago is the political powerhouse, as both Presidents, knubbel and Bonobo, have emerged from Chicago (similar to Virginia for the real U.S. since most of the first presidents emerged from Virginia).

Perhaps a statesman will upset this trend. Who knows who our next President for Round 3 will be? Let the battles begin!

Here is our new standings board for the round:

show: Round 3 Board

And the matchups:

Round 3: 2020

Bonobo is President, though no setting change is made. Settings from Round 2 remain in place.

show: NYC Region

show: Chicago Region

show: Charleston Region

show: San Francisco Region

We are now eight years into your life as a statesman. Most of you have found little luck in swaying the opinion of the national vote. But I wish you best of luck again in your third go at it!

Maybe the Chicago mob is rigging the elections.

And maybe I will become the next Capo... er, Prez... :-)

Just wanted to shout out to any of y'all looking for some more tournament fun,

The annual PIG Roast that I host is desperately in need of competitors! The tourney is organized in a "king-of-the-grill" type fashion, in which a player (known as the Roaster) chooses the map and settings and the 3 "piggies" in the group must battle him in 1v1 games.

The piggies strive to escape the torturous, torrid heat of the grill (avoiding elimination), while the Roaster must be sure to defeat every opponent in the round to avoid being thrown into the inferno himself!

It's the perfect way to get ready for the approaching holiday season in which many families enjoy a luscious, moutherwateringly-savory-good roasted pig for dinner.

Hungry? :-s

Check it out if you are interested! If you want in, simply write "in please". It would be absolutely sublime if you join, as there's only 10 days left for signups and still over half of the spots available!

Sorry for any of you who actually thought there was an update; gotta advertise my tourneys somehow :-$
