GRECO 3: Preliminary Round [Final]
« on: November 12, 2007, 05:03:12 PM »
Here's a brief overview of what'll happen due to our "shrinkage".

The following 13 people have registered before the deadline:

PriceFanArmadillo (ARMDILO)
Chad1787 (CHD1787)
cu2010 (CU 2010)
FieldsFan336 (FIEL336)
BRB_TheFireball (FIREBAL)
Footix (FOOTIX)
PimpinJC (JC87)
Jordanar18 (JORDN18)
Mr. Matté (MRMATTE)
rcbought (RCBOUGH)
stormy41992 (STORMY4)

Day 1 results will be posted here at about midnight (Central Time) tonight.

The Bracket will be abbreviated from the 32-player format to a 16-player format.  The "Seeds" will be determined from this Preliminary Round based on the individual results of the 13 players above (using the scoring rules for GRECO 3).  The 14, 15, and 16 Seeds will be replaced with a "Bye"; the 1, 2, and 3 Seeds will automatically win their Split Decision Matchup.

The Final Three will comprise of the Cliffhangers Bracket winner, and the Take Two Bracket finalists.

The Rulesheet will be amended at a later time to accomodate the above rulings.

I got to mark off #2 and #5.  I should have kept 3 Strikes on my board...

I would post the board here, but I can't figure out how to post a picture...anybody wanna help me?

People are tired of the f**kery and drama, but if we'd actually talk to each other sometimes instead of a whole bunch of private conversations with other people, it'd go a long way to perhaps fixing the problems most seem to see in the site.

I detailed a list found here (http://www.golden-road.net/index.php?topic=2242.0) to help out players from last season with this topic.  Let me know if it helps!

GRECO 3: Preliminary Round [Kickoff]
« Reply #8 on: November 13, 2007, 01:38:51 AM »
HOW I WILL POST RESULTS THIS SEASON:
I have chosen to post results only 3 times a week (Jordanar18 may choose differently if you're in his Bracket later on):
1) After Monday, the blank CARDS will be posted ("Kickoff")
2) After Wednesday, the CARDS will be marked after 3 days and scored ("Halftime")
3) After Friday, the CARDS will be fully marked and scored ("Final")

The scoreboard (not present during this Preliminary Round), however, will be updated with each player's score every day.

GRECO DAMMIT!

My layout for this week is coming together fairly nicely...except for that stupid Three Strikes.  (Tongue-in-cheek, of course, considering that will probably be the highlight of the week, show-wise.)

Well,  a decent start.  The 2nd Dice game today threw me off, but I got 2 2-outers that I feel pretty good about.
