And I may add a tally count to the bracket for how many times Cow has said on this forum in various places that Russia needs a bomber.

I don’t mean to pedantically rush you, Dj. I have patience in excess.

However, I am growing more concerned about the length of this game for the sake of the other folks in the tournament.

There are 4 games, 8 teams, left on their first game so we’re not quite an outlier yet; but we are the furthest behind with our turn 3 status.

If you need more time for your turn, that’s fine, I’d say they can all wait.  They just may not agree with that sentiment.

Meh. Update.

OFFICIAL BY DECREE XDAP Tournament Bracketing 2012.xls

30 hrs is usually when the delirium sets in.  That’s when it gets really fun.

I am back home now. Finally updated my program to boot.

Japan, you still alive!?

You can’t go seppuku on us yet!

Just so you folks know, I am in a rather high tempo work situation right now (18 - 24 hr workdays), but this circus should end the 21st.  I haven’t checked the updated map, but I trust your diligence.  Once the 21st hits, I should have little else on my radar.

Updating is good by me if its less trouble than dealing with the current issues you have.  I haven’t even looked at the change log yet, but hopefully its worked through a couple of kinks.

To be honest, I’ve never read any of Adams’ Dirk Gently.  I used the name because its mentioned in a part I enjoy in one of his Hitchhiker’s, and those books were a topic of discussion between my partner and I recently.

I need to pick the Dirk Gently books up, though.

Obviously I’m not the only one that’s busy.  Everyone still alive?

Welcome, Bob.

Sorry for the delay, this game has been on hold of sorts.

We’re all somewhat new here as well.  I’m sure any of these guys would like more games.  I’d probably be down, but for am on a high tempo trip right now so I won’t be able to make moves as much as I’d like.

Also, just recently a regular on the forum started a novice oriented tournament to promote people playing global and attract new folks to playing on the forums with each other.  XDAP in the tournament section.  Sometimes teams have dropped off and have had to be replaced or have a new member added.

And as far as I can see, there’s plenty of folk here looking for more games.

@allweneedislove:

@Boldfresh:

UNOFFICIAL OFFICIAL XDAP Tournament Bracketing 2012.xls

Swapped the LS26/LS27 to prevent early rematches.  Updated bracket with new game results while I was at it for the hell of it.

I suppose I should actually attach the bracket instead of disseminating by psychic broadcast.

@Gargantua:

Eskander, consider youself the unofficial bracket editer, if more randomization is required, or if it needs updating, and I haven’t done it yet.

Official Brother!

This doesn’t mean you can now be lazy, Garg.

Sorry for the delay, folks. Travel has been hectic.  Finally hunkered down in a hotel. Game on.
