Brilliant, sir. Can only see a list of games rather than the seedings table, mind, but brilliant nonetheless. Thanks!

Maybe you're not cool enough to see it?

PS Did you decide how many people you're gonna have in the finals?

You've forgotten Innis from the Seedings.

Hadn't anticipated anything other than the usual 8. Seems good to me.

Bishop 99 - 45 French

A lot of nasty letter selections, which may have played a little into my hands.

Do we slug Kevin Davis off..... he's not been around since October!

I haven;t checked you're correct, I've just trusted you.. and set up Bishop vs. Doohan for the next one. Get on it boys, good luck!

I'm tired and I fucked up. I did James Doohan-Jamie French and it's supposed to be James Doohan-Martyn Simpson.

Can you fix it for me Charlie, or let me know how I can? Sorry.

Cool. Well it got fixed it seems, but the result didn't take hold. Any ideas Charlie?

Anyway I've added Doohan-Robinson. Good luck Jameses.

Matt Morrison wrote:Cool. Well it got fixed it seems, but the result didn't take hold. Any ideas Charlie?

I'd guess they matched each other rather than taking the tourney game, but anyway I've done it for you manually now.

James Robinson 114 - 90 James Doohan

My good run is over, well played James

Nice one Doohan. Robinson-Leroux up next, get on it James(es). Total Jamesfest at the moment.

Time to give this a kick up the arse? It's been a week since the last game.

I've not seen Mr. Leroux on my trips to Apterous recently, so can't be helped really.....

Have you tried email/aptomail/PM?

In fairness, I hadn't, but I have now and hopefully it'll be done tonight.

Damn PROACTION!!!

JR vs Liam in the system!

Matt Morrison wrote:JR vs Liam in the system!

Done. Bring on the next course.

JR vs James Leroux ready to go. Two new challengers 'tomorrow' ?????

What

Ian Dent wrote:What

When you get to 4 wins, you have to retire. I'm currently at 3, hence Matt's comment.

Still what.

So who's next?

Charlie Reams wrote:So who's next?

I believe the Wiki says it's James Hall v Heather Badcock.

Sorry, I had no idea James's 4th game had been completed. I know it's all reported automatically but (in a rare turn of events) I'm utterly busy at the moment and would never think to check unless people post here. So, thanks for bringing my attention to it Charlie. I've set up James Hall vs HB, which means I'll have to set up HB's PayPal payment later on!

Is Heather about at the moment? I've been keeping an eye out for her online but haven't seen her recently.

James Hall wrote:Is Heather about at the moment? I've been keeping an eye out for her online but haven't seen her recently.

She's (we're) watching the Spurs game at the mo James. I'll try and get her to come and have another look for you post-full time. She had a look for you at half time and Lesley said she'd only missed you by half hour.
Hopefully if Spurs end up losing, she'll beat you in the tourney game and then I might still be able to get some sex tonight.

Matt Morrison wrote: Hopefully if Spurs end up losing,

If??? You posted at 8:45. Wasn't it obvious they would lose at that stage?

Sssshhhh. Don't tell her that.

Incidentally, despite her annoyance I did make her sign in and stay that way for about half hour from 9:45 to 10:15 but no sign of James.
She's busy tonight, smelling more like tomorrow now, sorry.

Interesting, I usually smell more like last week.

Ack, tomorrow's no good for me unless it's a bit later (10ish). Any good?

James Hall wrote:Ack, tomorrow's no good for me unless it's a bit later (10ish). Any good?

Spoke to the piece this morning, 10 tonight is all good. IT'S ON.

Round here, piece means sandwich, especially one taken to work/school for dinner.

Excellent. I may be 5 minutes late and/or slightly inebriated because we're going for pizza to celebrate the end of term. The pupils have finally buggered off for the next couple of weeks!

What happened to tomorrow, James? We break up early (more posting ) at 12:30 rather than the rather odd layout we have, which is from Monday to Thursday we finish at 4:00, and on Friday we finish at 3:20.

James Hall wrote:The pupils have finally buggered off for the next couple of weeks!

Couldn't agree more.

Sorry I'm pretty shit at remembering to check the played games (be cool if we could subscribe to a tourney's results or something? maybe not am just lazy)

anyway, gillies-pettettetet added.

Has anyone else noticed James and John played their game at 4:30 ish in the morning? Respect for dedication to the cause!

Pettet has beaten Gillies.

Nooo!! Lloyd's won again and now just needs 77 points in his next game to overtake me on the leaderboard. Come on Eoin! Smash him!

http://apterous.org/viewgame.php?key=-5 ... 5948264970

Super game, Lloyd nicking it with a lovely numbers solve. DEBALANCE seemed more likely than DANCEABLE to me.

Really good game, well played Eoin and unlucky with the numbers. Cheers

Not unlucky with the numbers, I was nowhere near the final one, it was a great solve, well played.

Shit it you bastards. A few days away from C4C and people actually get on with playing tournament games proactively for once. Typical.

In other words, the game had not been added to the tournament system and now Charlie's going to have to do it manually, please Charlie.

I don't think it's a problem for Charlie to enter a previous game manually whenever he can, so based on that I've added Eoin versus.... oh for fuck's sake, it's me.

But Eoin lost.

fucks sake. can't get anything right!

CHARLIE - HELP PLEASE! Oh, hang on, looks like you already have. Ok, so I'll add and play Lloyd soon as I can. Maybe tonight but possibly not til Tuesday evening.

Lloyd - do you have the correct e-mail address registered to your apterous account? I must have e-mailed you about 6 or 7 times through it now, no response...

Fucks sake. Lost 110-108 and had MAPHEADS^ instead of MOPHEADS, didn't declare WILLIE when I had a feeling it was good, and declared OUTRANG^ when I had a feeling it was shit.
Such a fucking personal anticlimax.

Ian-Peter added, ffs.

Get in there.

I won, what a great feeling.

n1 Ian I've been waiting since December for this drubbing, so I'm very much looking forward to playing the winner of you v Jonathan

Ian Dent wrote:I won, what a great feeling.

Fuck off.

Ian-Jon added.

BUMP Jonathan v Lesley

Ryan Taylor wrote:BUMP Jonathan v Lesley

Sorry, been a bit slow here. Yes, I've pm'd Lesley now-hopefully we'll be playing towards the end of the week all being well.

Also, it's not currently in the system I don't think. I might be wrong though :O

Wednesday night - you got yourself a game (unless it ends up being Friday, but either way plans are afoot).

Jonathan-Lesley added. As I've alluded to before, if I haven't updated a fixture within a day, please take 30 seconds to aptomail me and let me know it needs adding.

For my own benefit, remaining fixtures for the season:
Matt Bayfield
Josh Hurst
James Bradley
Scott Gillies
Dan Abrey
Mark James

I'm not really sure how the automated games will work once those fixtures are done, I need to talk to Charlie about it!
He's done a fantastic job with the auto-calculating finalists table on the right. I'm sure for next series he'll be able to let me just list a whole load of people in one go at the start and then the fixtures will be automatically sorted based on the previous winner and the next name on the list.

In a game that swung back and forth, with lots of spectators (you bastards), Jon emerged the worthy winner.

I expect to be invited back for a special.

Hehe, good game Lesley, pretty lucky to win there, esp. when i saw curricula the split after misbuzzing with 'circular'-really thought I'd chucked it :O

Very close, could have gone 'either' way, very well played indeed .

Next up, Matt Bayfield. Uh-oh :O

Don't worry, with a name like yours you can't lose.
