I beg to differ about Ironman31.
On a different topic, Freddie, can you please change your avatar? It is very disturbing. In fact, for many people, strobic effects like that can cause nausea and siezures.
The dancer was much better.
Originally posted by GatecrasherThe Lad and PO both have 4 games in progress.
Group 1 : Ironman31 is through.
Group 3 : mistsplicer is through.
Group 2 is still on a knife's edge. ThePO and Northern Lad can still catch David Tebb. But Dave's chances of making the final are looking better by the day.
ThePO needs two wins and two draws to equal tebb.
TheLad need two wins and two draws to knock tebb out.
Given that The PO and The Lad are playing against each other in two games ... and TheLad plays a player 60 points lower in two games - and The PO plays a player 200 points lower in two games ... this is likely one way or the other.
i would give tebb less than a 1 in 3 chance of making it.
... i like to tell you this : i told you so 😏
maybe i am not as stupid as my rating suggests!

with ironman31 removed ... there are two players from the first group who both have the same number of points:
[b]quirine and nicohuyboom.
russ, please, let them both pass to the next round.[/b]

In group 2 there are 3 games left that should all be resigned so the final round can start.
if they resign now then ironman will be in the final ...
Ironman31
ThePO
mistsplicer
if they delay a little then russ can organise it so that nicohuyboom and Quirine take his place ...
nicohuyboom
Quirine
ThePO
mistsplicer.
then it will be a much more interesting third round!
russ has removed ironman ...
assuming ThePO does not get timed out in the game with cbd Game 1185218, the players will be:
nicohuyboom
Quirine
ThePO
mistsplicer
as a sneak preview of how things might go ... keep an eye on:Tournament 501
