:? If it has to happen it has to happen but would have preferred if I got a pm first before reading it in here. I'm happy to replay the game what about the 28 points though is there a way they can be transfered back without me losing on purpose which i would never do.

PS I intend to win the rematch - lets get it on :P


I will be sending you a PM later this evening. I noticed it between classes though and didn't have time to send out multiple PMs at the time.

Story so far:

Rebel army led by a cadet bravely enters with the big boys in the prestigious Point Grabbers Tournament alongside some of the legends of the game including 3 former point grabbers winners.

Thankfully there were only 16 players if there were more this poor cadet would have been seeded lower.

In the round of 16 this cadet is drawn against competition specialist and one of the pre tournament favorites Reptile - many have speculated where this creature has come from or what it is all we know for certain is few come out smiling when they meet this creature in tournament play.

With the benefit of home field advantage despite not having the first move the people of Ireland rise up in joy to celebrate one of their own in a david v goliath performance protecting the green fields of Ireland from the invading hoards led by this creature known as reptile. What reward you asked was bestowed on rebelman for this great act he is offered maidens, land and gold but he refuses all bar 50 of reptiles points which are said to be the source of his power.

Word of rebelmans great deeds reached the kingdom of Brazil where they sent out a plea for help as they were under attack from the one known as rsuttles58. Rebelman being a knight and a gentlman could not refuse this request, he brought with him a few trusted soldiers and a magic card making spell he had retrieved in the battle against reptile.

This proved to be rebelman's greatest victory yet aided in no small way by the card making spell he defeated the evil rsuttles58 who called him charlie (this was a good thing considering charlies form against the yanks). Once again rebelman was offered the spoils of war and this time he and his men did party with the local women as it would have been a huge insult not to. From the evil rsuttles58 he took 28 points which he place in his war chest alongside the 50 he gained from reptile.

Our brave hero has now been called into battle in Montreal, once again he accepts the challenge not knowing what danger awaits him. He and his men are now tired and weary after the partying and womanising in Brazil but they do not want to leave the people of montreal down so once again they set forth into battle with their heads held high as their leader is now a private first class, but can they last much longer ???? all will be revealed.


As the men prepared for their epic battle in Montreal with forces unknown they received word that the mighty Lord Optimus wanted them to return to the scene of their latest victory. Our brave army already tired and weary knew they must obey the Tournament God and if he commands them to return they must follow his command. Lord Optimus tells them although it was a fair fight that he had created he wanted us to do it again this time with our armies chained so there would be no advantage because of first strike. The men plead with the Lord that they did not have first strike the last time but I fear their pleas will be in vain and once again they need to save the good people of Brazil from the evil one who despite his banishment from the kingdom in shame has returned looking for revenge. These brave soldiers beat this foe once they can do it again, and the kinky ones among them actually like the chains idea and wish to use them for the womanising afterwards, This thought gives the men a renewed sense of energy and vitality and they will put their lives on the line again to make Brazil a free and peaceful kingdom once more if that is what the Lord decrees and then if it is not too late they will stop the rapeing and plundering in Montreal by these unknown dark forces.

It's official: If Optimus Prime ever creates the Conquerbots Clan then his first action as Clan Leader will be to anoint rebelman as "Conquerbot Clan Historian."

That's all I have to say at the moment. :D :D

The bracket has been fixed with the new second round game numbers for all to see. I have sent a PM to each player to let them know of their rematch games after my mess I created.

Enjoy!

Our brave soldiers did as their Lord requested of them and went forth into battle. The battlefield once again was Brazil this time the samba drums and footballs were replaced with chains at the request of the All Powerful One. Once again their foe was the evil rsuttles58. Once again the evil one had first move but rebel's brave army quickly claimed the kingdom of the south, however the Gods were not smiling on him his dice seemed cursed and all his cards were covered in blood making them almost worthless. He fought hard despite the obvious bias of the dice and cards towards his opponent. it has been said that the evil one bribed Lord Optimus but rebelman and his men will not believe this to be true of their noble God. they fight gallantly and despite the odds also sieze the kingdom of Mato Grosso but their opponent not only has the gods smiling on him he has amassed a massive army of mercenaries, monsters and the undead in the northwest from where he launches wave after wave of attack after attack. Our brave warriors fight till their dying breath but the enormity of the task is too much and they perish on the battlefield at the hands of rsuttles58. As the life forrce leaves our fallen hero he take comfort from two things rsuttles58 has changed his evil ways having seen the brave rebelman fight so bravely to the end he will take up the gauntlet to free the people of Montreal from persecution in honor of the one he has slain. The other consolation rebeman has after 3 great battles his war chest which started empty now holds 64 precious points - 50 from the creature known as reptile and a net 14 from the once evil now good rsuttles58. with these thoughts plus memories of his gallant deeds and fallen comrades our hero breathes his last.

the end or maybe the beginning of something new ..........

You know....I'm actually thisclose to buying rebelman a premium membership just to bribe him to participate in all of my tournaments from now on. Of course, he would be required to continue writing these amazing epics for us.

These are totally going to get including on the Tournament Central site someday.
