Whatever it was, it made Schiltzberg miss Group E. Again.

I guess I've just been a mite annoyed at how many upsets I've had against me this round. Good RP fodder, but an 11th-ranked nation with 8-9 days of RP bonus should not be losing to an unranked RPless team by that margin (7-3).

To clear things up, there is no number one seed. The pairings will be:

A1vB2
C1vD2
D1vA2
B1vC2

and for Schiltzberg's side:

E1vF2
G1vH2
H1vE2
F1vG2

Sorry, but it's not entirely clear from your bid - how exactly are the playoffs going to work?

A Saintland-style five game playoff, followed by two double elimination tournaments (one scorinated by Schiltzberg and one by me). The two winners go on to a Saintland-style seven game championship.

What exactly is the "Saintland" style?

So, if I have this right, I'm playing San Llera in the first round?

It remains to be seen. There is still one match day to go, but if the surest tables hold, yes.

EDIT: Never mind, I was wrong. You'll play the second team from Group A, if I'm not mistaken.

Umm, I forgot to send Shiltzberg the results yesterday. Apologies, but I will send them in when I get home today. Reminder, this is the final day of group play.

Ehhh. Honestly, I have found that hosting makes me somewhat indifferent to how my team does. I know I'll be around until the tournament ends, so I am less concerned with how my team preforms.

I will be going over the games to find H-2-H records. Expect my playoffs to be posted after I complete said analysis.

Yeah, that is kind of how I feel too.

Wait, so is there time to come up with an RP for day 11 for us in those groups?

It has already been scorinated by Frenline. I got the results for 11 at the same time as I got 12. I could have Frenline rescorinate them in a couple hours if you want. I haven't posted the results that he gave me yet.

And that may not work because I probably won't be on my compute two hours from now.

Groups A-D playoff seedings are up. Tommorow is an off-day (as there are no tie-breaker games), so enjoy it.

Here are my seeds. Even though I have not received the results for Group E's Match Day 12, it does not really matter, because all of Group E's playoff seeds have been clinched already.
