Wow, way to go Yahkeh! Smile I still remember the comment he made to me one game about always finding a top player in his game(s)... now the tables are turning. Wink Also congrats to Eva, but I knew you were damn good already! Very Happy

By the way, Games, will the lowest ranked remaining player always face the highest ranked remaining player, for example rebel v yahkeh, assuming rebel wins? I realise that with the upsets no ranking is perfect, and no player is consistent at a good or bad level of play, I was just curious.

No, there will be no reseeding between rounds, at least not this time around. This should make it a bit easier for a lower seeded player to win the tournament.

Yahkeh will play the winner of marcx vs. NoMoreCheese.

No, your worse.... or is that better?!? Anyway, you just have to water block Rebel and he gets too upset to focus, hehe, or maybe that's in 3+ players.... still, it's all in the mind. Wink

I'd say Rebelslayer and I are pretty even, but he beat me in our recent Season 3 games.

A *lot* of people get ticked by water blocks. I do it all the time. Wink

Not to pick on anyone, but I found the top left water block hilarious:

I must admit I was not terribly upset by that water block.

It does keep you from having a ready supply of money there. But the points are pretty much a wash.

You thought that was funny? You'd have loved this then:

Although I thought it was fairly good play, except it didn't work out for yellow in the end. A for effort, though. Smile

Yeah, I thought that was gonna work, but no such luck.

I think that was the first game I'd lost were my opponent only hit 2 markets.

I've just noticed this thread found my water block amusing. Whilst I wasnt convinced at the time, it turned out to be a decisive move in that Gische was always struggling for money.

Anyway, the point of the post is that my game has concluded.
