IA on Pro is so freaking annoying.
Anyway, I was 1st and i'm on the final. |

This WC is turning into a very entertaining event 
Lots of controversy about the first round of scratch:
1. Lots of people complain about the AI on pro level
2. One group apparently played with easy AI settings (which is clear from the results), but the host denies it (to avoid having to replay the group)
3. One guy accuses the host of photoshopping the result
... and more that I can't remember right now. It's very entertaining to read

I'll probably have huge trouble in the points race today. Haven't played it in ages.
Oh well - we'll see. |

6 showed up, 5 went through to the next round - so my odds were quite good. I ended with a 5th place, so that's fine.
I did actually win two of the eight rounds, but was pretty much blocked in all the other rounds. |

I shall have to hope for your luck in group attendance, but I expect at least 6 to turn up in my group, probably more

As it turns out nothing to worry about. Me and Untal both scored 15 points and are through, with me given 2nd over him due to a better placing on the final sprint.
But it was all on the last sprint, with 7 in it, the bottom 3 (me included) were all tied on 9 points after the penultimate sprint.

Yeah, SN, it was very close one, quite strong group with equal players, I had no luck with positioning during final sprint and took 6th place...
Congratulations! |

Its a shame you didnt get through over valverde, who was doing a fair amount of blocking when he could (whether allowed or not, its annoying), but I guess ultimately its just luck of the draw - looking at the results, our group was the 2nd closest.

For the third round, Pangare is in Pot 1, Untal and Sim in Pot 2, me in Pot 4, Crue in Pot 5 - theres definately a good chance that some of us could end up in the same groups

I'm not sure whether I'm a huge fan of the drawing system, though. I finished 2nd in my group, yet ended up being in pot 5.
The amount of points you get depends a lot on how good your competitors are. Some groups are easier than others.
Other than that ... yes, time for some DTT cooperation. Getting tired of all the Belgian blocking. |
