Ouch, tough break for Andersault.

Hi, I need to leave the league after this season. It's been great, thanks for running it.

@wakanarai
Can you understand? :P
I hope, you will understand as well why I will be so glad when you write to me gg :)

Well said Ekstone ;)

I have no cure for ignorance though :(

Zilcho, thanks for letting us know. This new opening has has several cascading effects, including making the Group C tie-breaker unnecessary and giving Andersault the promotion he deserves. Here is the new pattern for Season 10:

A: aaaaabb
B: aabbccc
C: bccddde
D: cdeeeff
E: defffgg
F: efggh1,h2,h1
G: gggh1,h2,h1,h2
H: h1,h2,h1, newcomers

I expect I can get the new season started within a couple of days, so watch your tournament invitations.

Whoops, made a mistake there about the tie-breaker. Two of the three will be promoted to B instead of one, but the tie-breaker still needs to resolve who remains in C, so there may be a bit of delay yet after all. Sorry for the confusion.

And why the second place of H1 promoted to F and not from H2?
I think we should play tie-break for that place as well, no?

I imagine it's because, according to CC's graphic, 6 H1's are continuing. Only 4 from H2 are..

It seems I am a bit late to the party. If there are any openings for next season I would like to play.

Yes. There became room for 3 H's in F, rather than 2. I have to rank the H's in a logical way, and it seemed to me that while you are both 2nd in your groups, Dom365 is slightly to be preferred for going 4-1 rather than 3-1 (or 5th last rather than 4th last). That isn't Ekstone's fault, of course, but that is how that ball bounced.

If the two of you prefer to fight for that last super-promotion man-to-man, go ahead and set up a quick game before the tie-breaker ends. I'll honour the result if you BOTH confirm.

JV, you're in.

Ekstone, I'm happy to play-off for the last promotion place?

Well, Dom, you are not only good but a very fair player!
Thx the chance, I get it.

I am creating a play-off match, please join, and gl hf.

I honestly can't tell if Ekstone is making a joke out of wakaranai's name or his post.

On the other hand, I'm not relegating this season! Yay!

Group C tiebreaker has just ended:

1) [WG] Ineffable 2:0
2) [WM] Malamute 1:1
3) Z-Dog 0:2

Ekstone & I will hurry up with our tie-breaker, then!

Not necessary, the new session can start and you can play the higher group as original.
Anyway, likely you will win our game :P
After turn 3 I was a very good position, if I did that simple blockade...
But I didn't so I will have to say gg soon :(

OK, all. Expect to see your new tourney invites very soon!

so dont Forget about me

I finally beat Ekstone :)
