I'm late to the party here, but I'm open to any matches if people have space left. Home or away - I'd ideally have a three match series but given how late I'm asking this I'll take whatever I can get really.

Gruenberg in Quebec and Shingoryeo series noted.

Matchweek 10 next week is pushed back to 7 April from 6 April.

Scheduling, as always, remains open until 13 April (the day before when MW11 is scheduled for) for any late two-match series.

Eastfield Lodge bat first
Gruenberg 704 (216.4 overs)
Eastfield Lodge 273 (71.3 overs), 279 (75.0 overs) f/o
Gruenberg win by an innings and 152 runs

This score is impossible: a team that bats first cannot also follow-on. Either Gruenberg batted first and enforced the follow-on, or Eastfield Lodge batted first and did not follow-on.

That would be on me (ApoxBaller does not indicate f/o); I added f/o incorrectly. Removing.

Ko-oren, a quick note since I notice your RP mentions a two-match series with Sylestone that it is in fact a three-match series which is scheduled.

This is a reminder that Season 13 scheduling will close on Thursday 13 April, as there are two scheduled match weeks left before the Final and the minimum series length is two games.

Wow! A team winning after following on is incredibly rare. Has that happened before in GCF?

I can quickly look through the history but my gut says that it has.

A cursory check shows that in the last two seasons, GCF Test 778 (season 11) and Test 783 (season 12) both saw teams following on win. I would say that with our current scorinator, it's a lot more likely to happen than it is IRL.

Any takers for a two match series?

Just a quick note to say that the cut-off times for Matchweek 12 and the WTC Final will be brought forward by roughly 6 hours from what it has been, i.e. to around 1500 UTC.
