Announcing the 2018 GvI and FvA Showdowns

[goldfinger0303]

If you win the losers bracket, you are guaranteed top 2. It doesn't matter where you end on the winners bracket (unless #1 or 2). Just where you end on the losers.

FvA Set 164 : [nice and deserved] victory of ghengiz vs CptMike : 2 - 1
But I will have me revenge.

I’ll take that bet!! How many thousands of points do you wish to wager?!

All in!

How about 2,000 points?!

Revenge is defined as you knocking Killer G out of this AvF tourney, of course, GvI is meaningless...

[mhsmith0]

holy crap i just realized that the predictions contest in FvA is down to whoever wins genghiz vs xorxes

gooooooo xorxes!

This is not the finals yet. The winner will still have to face the winner of the loser's bracket. But thank you for your support :)

[mhsmith0]

Yeah but I don't think the tourney winner is part of the contest

Who knows maybe I'll get on a hot streak and you can knock me out again

(I'm a bit sad I couldn't get knocked out by you in G/I but alas, I crapped out one round too early )

All in !

Shouldn't I meet him next turn in GvI ?

Captain, you are cleverly avoiding the issue, maybe you should try press games?!

You claimed you will knock genghiz out of this AvF Tourney, I think it’s unlikely you two will even meet again (which means you would lose the bet by default), though I haven’t looked at the bracket... Regardless, I’m calling your bluff, I’ll put up 2,000 points saying you will not get your revenge by knocking genghiz out of this AvF Tourney, you put up 2,000 points backing up your claim that you will knock genghiz out of this tournament, do we have a bet?!

You are a clown but not very funny.

It is not the first time that you manipulate other words to give them a meaning they don't have. (See here). I don't really understand why or what you expect and I would not mind if it was not attached with a recurrent agressivity.

I think it’s unlikely you two will even meet again (which means you would lose the bet by default), though I haven’t looked at the bracket...

You haven't ? Tha't's the thing you did
So what would be the only scenario that could work to satisfy your fantasms ?

Regardless, I’m calling your bluff, I’ll put up 2,000 points saying you will not get your revenge by knocking genghiz out of this AvF Tourney, you put up 2,000 points backing up your claim that you will knock genghiz out of this tournament, do we have a bet?!

All in.

If I beat genghiz next time I meet him your points are set to 0 and your GR's reset. If I don't, mine drop to 0 and my GR's are reset.

A strong guy such as you can't refuse this, can you ?

This will not lead to nowhere... So please, give us some fun and weep now as next time. We would all be pleased to see this again as for your precious GR...

[MadMarx]

I think I understood some of that!

I’m trying to have fun with you, but perhaps it came off differently... You claimed you would beat genghiz next time, but I have more faith in genghiz than you (just as you have more faith in genghiz than me), and I got my Ryder Cup teammate’s back, don’t be talkin smack about Killer G!!

genghiz is not well engaged to win the games in GvI against you.
Copy/Paste can be efficient.

But don't talk about him as a Team because you was accidently born in the US. He is a smart, respectfull and fair-play gamer.

[MadMarx]

Okay, Cpt, you win, I lose, well done.

[CptMike]

Okay, Cpt, you win, I lose, well done.

When I said you would weep...

[CptMike]

Two great Italian victories in GvI by a champion vs another champion :

* cspieker wins
* xorxes wins

The winner of their game 3 will move to the final of the winner braket.

The winner of ( bozotheclown vs CptMike ) will face the winner of ( Madmarx vs Genghiz ) and join him.

Okay, just went through updating everything. Should send out PMs for new games in a few hours.

[goldfinger0303]

Alright, PMs are sent out for new games. I should be all caught up. I'm sure I probably missed something somewhere though, so feel free to hollar if you spot something off on the challonge, or aren't getting a PM when you think you should be.
