@ Actorios

seems like I need to watch out for you :D
you are in the part of the tournament bracket where my first opponent is coming from.
Just one more win and we get to play ;-)

Yay, that means I'm up.

I'm planning on being freegame's first opponent! :twisted:

good luck to the both of you :)

Aphelion(w) vs ketchup(b)

I lost. GG Aphelion. Well played. I made a mistake early on, I should have taken that left side(move 41). It was pretty huge, and after that I believe it was very difficult for me. Great job to Aphelion on staying calm during the entire match.

Thanks for the game Ketchup, sorry I didn't stay and review, the internet crapped out right after the game. Is there a review from Shaddy or someone stronger?

:b15: must be C3.
A good system naturally covers all corner cases without further effort.

No review from what I know. I had to log off as well pretty soon after. Feel free to get it reviewed.

Congrats Aphelion. That puts you in the lead for longest winning streak (3 in a row) and you're now the only player left in the winners bracket that started in round 1. Good show! :)

Thanks Herman! Hopefully I will ride this wave a little further :p. Oroth, you're next!

Ketchup, I'm going to put this game on game analysis forum.

I guess I'd better get a cup or two, myself... Not that it would make a difference...
Maybe if you go for an Irish one ? ;-)

- 3b: POGO vs Will

The following games should be played by July 31:
- 4a: MountainGo vs lindentree
- 4a: fwiffo vs zinger
- 4a: Acorios vs daniel_the_smith (scheduled for July 23)
- 4a: Aphelion vs Oroth
- 4a: Marcus vs Kirby
- 4b: kokomi vs Chew Terr
- 4b: mic vs k1ndofblue
- 4b: rubin427 vs daal
- 4b: Mosdefgo vs dfan
- 4b: Nakamura vs ketchup
- 4b: Jordus/padic winner vs oren

It looks like zinger and I will be playing sometime on Saturday. Jordus mentioned that he hasn't been able to get in contact with padic - what should be done if one's opponent can't be reached?
