Well, at least Megawhirl V proved itself in the first round.  I didn't think I would win that once the front wedge plates broke off, but MWV actually seemed to do better without them...

My losers bracket match is gonna be tough.  It will probably come down to who attacks who first.

Prediction for the final:  I think Paper Cut has a better chance, but it would be cool if Vertical Impulse could pull it off, just because pure flippers win so rarely.  And as far as pure flippers go, VI is awesome.  VI vs. Box of Evil Noobishness = Big-OHH

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

Why is it that Pwn has such astounding luck when it comes to tournaments compared to me who is a magnet to Murphy's law?!?!  What do you think is going to happen when the luck of us two combines in RAW 2?  Congrats anyway Pwn!

There is a loser's bracket, but i decided to do it after the main bracket. There will be a vengeance match style thingy between the 2 bracket winners at the end, but that's not a grand final, it's just a fun match.

Wanna try doing a tournament yourself? Read the 'Notice' JB put up please.
I've got a very busy life atm (major exams) and of course it's almost christmas.
To be honest, you should be happy that I did the Winner's Bracket in a REALLY good timeframe.
But do I see you thanking? No.

He's completely right. The winners went up very quickly indeed, and anyone in England knows these exams could (unlikely but possibly) affect his future. That, plus the fact it's christmas next week means we should let Craaig put up the brackets when he has the time to, not when you want him to.
