[UNDERWAY] SP Shards of Infinity Tournament results thread

geigerm over @whovian223–good game!

That should do it for my games.

Jason1002 beat @JMH.75 in game 2 . Good game

In earlier tournaments winner could report scores in challonge themselves. Might be an idea next time. That seemed to work earlier.

No, it’s a miserable experience, especially with 20 people.

While this thread is not perfect, it does keep everything in one place and does ensure that one person is ultimately in charge. If the Challonge page was open to all, this thread would mostly consist of A) questions about how to sign up for/use Challonge, B) people accusing each other of reporting the results incorrectly, C) people reporting the results differently; D) some people just reporting results here anyway; and E) me having to figure it all out.

I’ve run a thousand tournaments for a thousand games; one thing I’ve learned is that multiple Challonge editors leads to more heartache than it is worth.

That being said, I will post the links shortly (each group has its own page). We are down to just a few games, so now would be the time for any corrections/additions.

Wednesday updates, starting with Group A:

Two games remaining, both involving @buzznaut. Here is your group page:

Note that is literally a list of 1s and 0s, since we aren’t using scores as any sort of tie-breaker. Scroll to the bottom for current standings.

Here’s the group page:

Those games are in progress…

Duke, you remember when i organized the RftG Premier League?

16 players, 240 games.
players were allowed to report their game results, and it worked like a charm.
i think i had to correct only one input.

GG!

Me and @feederofgoats are almost done with our final game.

Personally, I am happy with the organizing as it is. Thread is for me much more convenient and I’m happy that @TheDukester is taking care of it all. Thx for that.

The 100-sided dies is out … that can mean only one thing. It’s time for the first tie-breakers.

Our group winners are seeded 1-4 and will all receive a bye into the quarterfinals.

Here’s how the tie-breaker wound up:

  1. @Hipmonle: 8-2
  2. @Blackfyre: 8-2
  3. @johnl: 8-2

@Jules (7-3) is the No. 4 seed; he was not involved in the tie-breaker.

All of you guys are on hold for now. We need to finish the groups, then we’ll need first-round playoff results before you know who your next opponent is. So just check the thread every few days, I guess.

I’ll post a link to the full bracket as soon as we have all 12 finalists.

Taking pity on TheDukester - i.e. resetting post count for blood-pressure-related issues :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

@Tamsk wins v @JMH.75, game 2.

(Finally got Omnius The All-Jankiest to work :slightly_smiling_face:)

@whovian223 over @feederofgoats 25-0. Finally got somebody down to single digits and finished them off. Third time’s the charm!

This clinches second place and a playoffs spot for @jason1002.
