Sempai's Graduation Medal Hunt! [TPA3] [waauw wins!]

[sempaispellcheck]

It somehow escaped my notice that filopo is freemium.
He will be removed from the tournament and replaced by crazycolin.
My sincerest apologies to those who did get to play against him, because those games WILL NOT COUNT for tournament purposes.

Bronze Trench and Random now

Silver random map achievment for me

When are scores likely to be updated?

[sempaispellcheck]

My original plan was to wait until all games had finished.
However, since there are now few enough active games for me to watch, I may tally up the results for the games that have finished and add the others in as they finish.
Depends how much time I have.

[sempaispellcheck]

First round results, as they stand AT THIS MOMENT, have been added to the spreadsheet for the first 4 players alphabetically in this tourney.
That's all the time I have right now. I will try to get to the rest of us later tonight.

EDIT: As of shortly before midnight CC Time June 28, the spreadsheet has all results for the first 7 players alphabetically.
Also, there is now a second page in that spreadsheet which contains an accurate (as of this moment) Round 1 kill count for all 32 of us.

sempai

[sempaispellcheck]

The results of all finished games have been put into the spreadsheet, and kill counts have been updated.
As of this moment, the spreadsheet is completely up to date, and there are 41 active Round 1 games.
allinpoker1980 and general cod are currently tied for the lead with 25 kills each. They each also have 1 active Round 1 game.

NOTE: From Round 2 on, in every game, each player will be either Player A or Player B, where Player A has beaten Player B in this tournament, but Player B has not beaten player A. In every game from Round 2 on, Player B will be red and Player A will be green (in accordance with the red and green boxes in the spreadsheet).
For example, I beat jpk in Round 1, which means he obviously has not beaten me. When we meet in Round 2, he will be red and I will be green.
Also worth noting - if a red player wins a game in Round 2 or later, the two players involved in that game will not play each other again in this tourney, as each will then have beaten the other at least once.

I hope that's all understandable, but if you still have questions, please feel free to ask them.

So glad I put a round limit on these games.
The 4 active games should finish soon, and Round 2 invites will (hopefully) go out this weekend.

I wish the table was simple, lol.

I wish the table was simple, lol.

I wish it could be.
When I get a chance, I'll add a third sheet listing the players each of us still need to defeat.

That would be appreciated.

[sempaispellcheck]

All Round 1 games have now been decided.
Setting the pace in Round 1 are allinpoker1980 and general cod, who each won 25 of their 31 games.
Each of these two players will receive a General Achievement medal.
Congratulations to Gilligan for being the only player to beat both of these two in Round 1 - no prize for that, though.

Next on my agenda:
Add third sheet to spreadsheet listing players each of us still needs to defeat
Create Round 2 games
Send out invites for Round 2 games

These will be done in that order, when I have the time to do them.

[sempaispellcheck]

Third sheet has been added to spreadsheet, and all Round 2 games have been created.
Round 2 invites to go out hopefully later tonight.

Gold freestyle earned because of tourney. Many thanks

[allinpoker1980]

I was sent out invites to the ones I need to beat but not to the ones who need to beat me. I have a feeling this may be the same with everyone else as I accepted my games at the last minute and no one else still has joined. I believe this will make me go second in all of them which ony seems fair if it is this way for everyone.

[sempaispellcheck]

It is indeed the same for everyone. I have not yet had the time to sent out all the invites - I hope to get the rest of them out tonight.

EDIT: As of 9:05 PM Eastern (about 2 hours after this was initially posted) all Round 2 invites have been sent, and 38 games are already active.

sempai

[sempaispellcheck]

Gilligan has informed me that he will not be able to accept his invites for a few days. If you want to drop your invite to your game with him in the meantime, I understand, and I will resend yours when I resend his.

sempai

[allinpoker1980]

ok i dropped it

[sempaispellcheck]

Cheesydave and Quark_Star have failed to accept their invites and have forfeited their games. All players will be credited with an automatic win against each of them.

sempai

[Mishalex]

Yeah, two players i have already beat !

[sempaispellcheck]

Even with 63 games still active, I can announce for certain that there will not be a Round 3.

Congratulations to waauw on being the first player to defeat all 31 of his opponents and win the tourney! (even if one win was by forfeit)

There is only 1 other player who could accomplish the feat in Round 2, and that is Gilligan - however, waauw beat Gilligan in their Round 1 game, so he owns the tiebreaker and would win anyway.

Full standings for TPA3 purposes will be posted once all Round 2 games are complete.

Thank you all for taking a chance on this tourney (I'm sure a few of you are glad it's over)!
I encourage all of you to set up 1v1s with these tourney settings and invite the players you could not defeat in this tourney until you beat them - I know I will!

Best,
sempai

[Donelladan]

Félicitations waauw
