Newest game completed #8 North Carolina State Wolfpack (reahma) holds off #9 Drake Bulldogs (badnuzjr)

Congrats reahma, your next opponent will be the winner of Hath and masonhogfan (if the game ever begins)

I have been made aware by flexmaster33 that he will be unable to continue in the tournament. His replacement will be Jedlueds. It is looking like we may need 4 other replacements and at the current time we only have 1. If anyone can get people to sign up, it would be great.

blakebowling, I would but it does not seem fair to everyone: giving some people who have already lost a second chance. If I were to do that, then I would give myself one of the slots also. There has been one more reserve signup: Boss_oss_ss. Also, Jedlueds has taken the place of flexmaster33. He will still be the #8 seed in the Draknor region. As of now there are 4 games that have not been started, 15 games have been completed, and 13 games are currently active. We have 2 reserves available and may need two more. The four players who have not yet joined their games have 13 hours to join their games. At that time I will rank the reserves and place them into the open spots.

Hmm...the reserves could throw the rankings out the window though, it won't be all nice and ordered. I mean, I don't really care, I just wanna play the game, but just throwin' that out there...

Two new games to announce:
#3 Oklahoma Sooners (harvmax) defeat #14 UMBC Retrievers (acores)

Upset #4: #10 Villanova Wildcats (popeyelvc) upset #7 Missouri Tigers (zat)

Congrats harvmax and popeyelvc. harvmax, your next game will be against the winner of hammyshawn and spock11384. popeyelve, your next opponent will be the winner of Fireside Poet and risk it all.

We are down to 3 no shows:
RedBaron0
McCrap
masonhogfan

We have two reserves who are willing to play. If a third can show up, that would be perfect. Again, I cannot let someone who has already lost be a reserve because it is unfair to everyone else.

Two more games to announce:
Upset #5: #11 Texas A&M Aggies (denominator) upset #6 UMass Minutemen (spurgistan)

#7 Liberty Flames (Diamonds14) defeat #10 Southern Illinois Salukis (dantheman1991)

Congrats denominator and Diamonds14. denominator, your next opponent will be the winner of cave man and girque. Diamonds14 your next opponent will be the winner of jasper_be and raider7.

We are down to 2 games not started (2 total players missing):
McCrap
masonhogfan

We have 2 reserves willing to play in their place. I respect the view of Hath, that this will upset the seedings since these two players have higher scores than the players they may replace. However, I do not have many other options. If someone could suggest a fair and reasonable way to fix the situation I am open to ideas. The two players still have 2 hours, hopefully that will be enough.

I'm fine with whatever you want to do. There really just isn't a good way to do it. If it upsets the rankings so be it, going to have to play stiffer competition eventually anyways...

The two reserves were given the game numbers and passwords. I apologize for the delay, and the new issue with seeding. Hopefully it will not cause too many issues.

One more game has started with a reserve player. Boss_oss_ss has taken the place of masonhogfan and will be playing as the #16 seed in the Middle Earth region. Currently there are 21 games ended, 10 games active, and 1 game not yet started. Sir Big Spur, you have been added to the reserve list. I also have not yet thanked Marfski for the comments he made in the middle of page 13. I hope you all are enjoying this tournament and I intend to keep up the same level of announcements.
