My cut-off will be later today than normal. You all have at least another three hours to RP past my normal cut-off,
I don't know how long I'll be back, but I just thought I'd stop in and say hi, at least.

A couple notes: I will be scoring and grading all RPs for the next few days while Schiltzberg is away. Also, I can't guarantee what time I'll be able to cut off. Just keep your eyes peeled.

You know, some advance warning would have been nice before dropping a 7 am cutoff on us...

Rank isn't that useful if you don't RP. Hence Nova and Greg getting knocked out. Then again, I RP'd nearly daily and still went out first-round... :(

Fair enough them getting knocked out, but I guess you just got extremely unlucky

The baseball scorinator, in comparison to other scorinators, is incredibly random, so it leads to things like that.

Hey, what's up guys? Honestly, I'm surprised, yet happy to still be in the tournament. I will RP if I can, and I really want to, it is just really annoying to on my phone. I am psyched, because the results went the way I wanted them to, because now my pitcher William McKey has a sub 2 era and a 5-1 record.

would someone mind knocking out Abanhfleft, because I have a feeling that if he isn't knocked out before too long, he's going to win...

And would someone mind giving me a critique on my new style???? Basically the last post ''But it's Baseball'', and the post ''What are Ethane's chances'' please?

Don't worry yourself about that, I have a pretty bad record against unranked and/or non-RPing teams, as this shows:
Game 4
Abanhfleft Revolution                       0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0  1
Coconut Isle Dwarfs                         0 0 0 1 0 3 0 0 X  4

Also, bad Ethane! :p

Thanks for having me, it's been a great tournament, and I've enjoyed rp-ing in it. I really enjoyed all your roleplay's and I hope that the best team wins. Good luck. And I hope we are keeping the tournament, because this was really good (and I actually got quite a way in)

This is the current plan for the finals. Remember, the final one or two games tommorow will decide advancement for one team on each side. After that, there will be a one day break. The scorinating schedule for the finals is:

Day 1 (December 3): Games 1-2 scorinated by Frenline Delpha
Day 2 (December 4): Games 3-4 scorinated by Schiltzberg
Day 3 (December 5): Games 5-6 (if necessary) scorinated by Frenline Delpha
Day 4 (December 6): Game 7 (if necessary) scorinated by Schiltzberg
I don't know how long I'll be back, but I just thought I'd stop in and say hi, at least.
