Continuing any longer is pointless. Bbegemont is victorius. Really was no contest I am afraid. Please update the Ratings Slynky, I'll take care of the tourney bracket.

Yeh, Geo, I'll get to it tonight when I get home from work.

PS: I'm starting to feel like you and Nodachi are in the same "rut".

Nah, Geo handed me my arse in a KOTH game so don't lump him in with me, that would be bad luck for him!

Actually, my KOTH record is the reason I haven't signed up with the Ratings thing. If I understand the Ratings system correctly, why would anyone want to face me? Beating me wouldn't be worth much!

Yes, but they might figure you for an easy win.
A win, no matter how easy will net you more points then a loss, no matter how hard.

Actually, lately I seem to be in a win one-lose one rut. Would be nice to win a bunch in a row, but unfortunatly it doesn't appear that I am that good.

Well then I'll go ahead and sign up. I love one-on-one games and that format would seem to favor a Ratings system...

I've always encouraged people to join regardless of how good they are. I think over time that everyone gets better and besides getting better and winning more games, there's nothing like seeing your rating rise as proof.

May I suggest contacting a guy who joined recently named Fire. He isn't an extroaordinary player...seems like you 2 would have a good game.
