Round 3: Mister Ten Below

A few fell away,
The rest more tense,
The battle persisted,
Despite common sense.
They've endured this long,
Can they win the fight?
Can they claim the title?
Will they win the right
To be called Mister White Christmas?
Mister Snow?
Mister Icicle?
Mister Ten Below?

ROUND 3 BEGIN!

The maps for this round are Christmas, Nordic Countries, and Northwest Passage. The password for all Round 3 games will be PM'd shortly.

REMEMBER: You may only join 2 games at most!

just a reminder needed, i assume you cannot face up against the same opponant(or can you?)
and can i play 2 xmas maps or do they both need to be different?

You can certainly play the same map for both games if they're available.
I am pretty sure you can play the same opponent... I don't see anywhere it is disallowed.

You are allowed to play the same map and the same opponent, if you wish.

Is that a question or a comment?

That's a tournament director, using colored text which suggests Official Voice. Pretty sure it's a statement.

Yup, sadly I hit another RL bump when my uncle passed away last month. My apologies, once again. I now have some help to hopefully keep the wheels on this tournament rolling swiftly and steadily. Fellow Entertainment Contributor, sempaispellcheck, will be handling your snowballs from now on, so I don't slow things down anymore! Since all of the game are done (and have been done for awhile ), you may now send your snowball throws to sempaispellcheck. Remember to use the proper form and include all necessary information. Remember, sempaispellcheck is allowed to post the results of the Round 3 Throw Phase (thus ending the phase and disallowing further snowball throw submissions) in as little as 72 hours from the time of this post, so get those in to him!

Sorry to hear about your uncle's passing Sully. Family always comes first.

Swifte wrote:Family always comes first.

Agreed. My condolences as well, Sully.

Who are we supposed to throw at? How many throws do I have? I don't understand.

If you win 0 games you get 0 snowballs.
If you win 1 game you get 1 snowball.
If you win 2 games you get 1 snowball.

They may be thrown at anyone. Different probabilities (see on front page) of hitting.

To be more specific:

If you win a game in the latest round of the tournament, you get one snowball to use in that round - and ONLY one snowball, even if you win two games. You can throw at anyone you like, as long as they're in the tournament.

If you throw at a player you beat in the latest round of the tournament, you have a 6 in 7 chance of hitting them.
If you throw at a player who beat you in the latest round of the tournament, you have a 4 in 7 chance of hitting them.
If you throw at a player you did not play in the latest round of the tournament, you have a 5 in 7 chance of hitting them.

And as jonty said, this can all be found in the first post.

Hope that clears things up!

Good thing I asked. I almost threw at AndyDufresne, because monkeys and snowballs are funny.

Since I beat sempai last round, I'll throw at him!! 6 out of 7, baby!!!

You're right about that.

Um...maybe you should have thrown at Andy.
And maybe I should have built that snow fort when I had the chance.
Uh...oh

All kidding aside, you do have to PM me with the number of the game(s) you won and who you would like to throw at (please not me, please not me) to actually throw the snowball.

Only difference now is PM sempai

Any Round 3 snowballs not thrown by this moment have been forfeited. Snowballs are now being thrown, and results PMed to Sully.

Could you all please put me back on the notification PM? I didn't know that round three had started. THANKS! Bee

Since Sully has not been on CC since June 19, I will be taking over this tournament entirely.
I have PMed tokle asking for privileges and hope to receive them shortly.
Unfortunately, I do not have Sully's poetic wit, but I hope you will consider the loss of Sully's poems at the start of each round a small price to pay to get this tourney moving again.

Now that I have received tournament privileges and officially rescued this tournament, here are the results from Round 3!

show: Snowballs Thrown

show: New Life Totals

Also, I am adding a new rule: Each player who does not play in any games in a given round loses one life.

I was hoping not to have to do this, but since I can't edit Sully's posts, I am going to have to move this tourney to a new thread.
