Due to a severe hangover the first round of the tourney will be delayed until Monday. This means you still have a chance to join if you would like!

It is your responsibility to determine a time at which you and your partner will play. The winner of the 3 match game (best of 5) is expected to post the scores to each of the matches in this thread by 12 am Tuesday server time. If you do not do so you will forfeit. Seeding was done in alphabetical order, as it will in all subsequent rounds. First prize will be 487,500 CB2. Second prize will be 162,500 CB2. I will pay all transfer fees so that we don't have to cut into the winners' prizes.
Recap of the Rules
Use Yahoo
121 peg matches
3 match game (best of 5)
Winner posts scores in this thread by 12 am Tuesday server time
No double skunks
That should clear everything up. If you have any further questions feel free to ask. May the best CBer win!

Only another six and a half hours to get those scores in! C'mon people! I know you didn't put up this money just because you didn't want it!

Mem
May 1 2006 6:20 PM EDT
It doesn't really matter who posts. I just said that the winner should post so we don't get two of the same post. Let's not argue about it.
Mem
May 1 2006 11:54 PM EDT
Ok. Since there would be four people that would be forfeiting due to not playing their game I will extend the time limit until 12 pm Tuesday server time. By 2 pm the next round will be seeded and you will have 24 hours to complete your game. If you do not do so you will be disqualified this time. No exceptions.

May 2 2006 1:57 AM EDT
I'd just like to say that this seems to be difficult as my partner likes night, I like morning/afternoon. I was on until 5 pm server time, i got a chatmail from him at 5:30 server time, now I get back on and he's not here :( Perhaps tomorrow morning.
rufen
May 2 2006 6:35 AM EDT
I'm sorry I can't be up until 2 in the morning...
Now would be my only time to play before noon, but I only would have 10 minutes before school.
Mem
May 2 2006 8:32 AM EDT
The deadline is extended to 6 pm then. Second round will be posted at 8 pm. 24 hours from that you are expected to have your second round match played. As Larry the Cable Guy would say (I can't believe I'm going to say this), "Get 'er done."
{cb1}dyno
May 2 2006 2:34 PM EDT
I will be here until around 3:30 server time, will be back around 5-5:30ish server time for another hour. Looks like he's only available at night for a few hours, which does me no good :-/
Mem
May 2 2006 5:41 PM EDT
Since Jad stuck around for most of the day waiting for PrettySyn and we are this close to the time he has to work and the time that I've, for a third time, extended the first round deadline to I offered to play him for a chance to move on to the next round. PrettySyn has been disqualified.
These are the results of the match:
Mem Dotson vs. (cb1)Jad
Mem Dotson 122-83 Skunk!
Mem Dotson 122-117
Mem Dotson wins 3-0
Thanks for playing, Jad.
Hopefully, next tourney it won't be so hard to find five minutes with your opponent.

Mem
May 2 2006 9:16 PM EDT
P.S. I couldn't seed in alphabetical order this time because it's not fair for Border to have two byes in a row. I had someone randomly pick for me.
Mem
May 3 2006 5:25 AM EDT
Seeding Update: Since we will have an odd number of players in the third round again the player that wins in the least amount of matches will get the bye. If there is a tie then we will add the score of those players' winning scores. If it is still tied after that then one round of rock, paper, scissors shall suffice.

Mem_Dotson wins 3-0!
Get your games played Border and th00p!!! I don't want to disqualify you both! Don't think I won't though. It's clearly stated in the rules...
I still can't believe my name is misspelled. This is garbage. And it only says the first three letters are wrong, with or without the underscore. Put my name in the spellchecker, please!
Mem
May 3 2006 11:32 PM EDT
Since both Border and th00p failed to obey the posted rules they have been disqualified.
Championship Round
{cb1}dyno vs. Mem_Dotson
Good luck, dyno.
Mem

Mem Dotson 126-120
Mem Dotson 124-86 Skunk!
Mem Dotson wins 3-0.
Since you all failed to beat me I win the 1st prize. You're in luck though. Those people that I beat to get here-- Davis, Jad, PrettySyn, and Ling-- will all get a chance to win back some money. Let me know what your schedules are so I can schedule your matches for you, since you all are incapable of doing so. Every one of you will win something so long as you play.
Dyno is awarded 2nd prize and the arrows that Border was so kind to donate. Congrats, Dyno!
Let me just say this about this tourney: It sucked. You all made it incredibly frustrating to run. I promise that it'll be better next time.
122-95 dblass
121-95 dblass
120-127 ling
112-121 ling

We should play hearts next :)
Mem

Ling vs. Pretty for the top spot and Davis vs. Jad for third. Don't worry, you'll all win money though. Post here!
