Nice!
Gonna re-post this for the new page.
Play your games or post about when you will play them by tomorrow. If you have been PMing/XBL messaging someone and they are MIA, let me know and I will find a replacement. If both people in matchup are MIA, I'll find two replacements. All round-one games should be played by the end of next Saturday, July 4th (preferably this weekend though). Round Two will start Sunday, July 5 and go through Saturday, July 11.
If that doesn't work for someone's schedule, please let me know so I can get a replacement.

Alright, I'm moving in the next few days, so I'd rather let someone take my spot because if not sure if/when I'll be able to play. I really wanted that #1 prize, but hey that's life.
I'll use this space to thanks Gatekeeper/topdeckhobbies.com !
Good luck to my replacement, Timedog/Chickeny Dinner ! I'm rooting for you !

Good games Astro, I would have been super pissed if I would have lost Game 4 after that glitch. I had your number that first time 
Speaking of glitches, at the end of game 1 (Literally, on the last turn) I zoomed in on one of your cards, Astro, and for whatever reason wouldn't un-zoom. The game continued as normal and I could even zoom in other cards, but your original zoomed card didn't disappear so I couldn't see 75% of the board. Though I can't say it had anything to do with why I lost
Edit: I have you at 14 for the end of game 6 though...?

I thought they fixed that bug (it used to happen on discards with Mind Rot) but I guess not all the way. The way I've gotten out of it before is to click the right stick; I think maybe changing views with the d-pad might work too.Orellio said:Speaking of glitches, at the end of game 1 (Literally, on the last turn) I zoomed in on one of your cards, Astro, and for whatever reason wouldn't un-zoom.

The game 4 thing was annoying. I use White a pretty decent amount and I've never had that happen, but it looked like it was related to Voice of All. Next patch pls Stainless.
Edit: You're correct, my mistake.

These matches were a blast. To Phreaker's credit, he kept it varied with his deck selection, whereas I played it pretty safe. He also got a terrible hand on the last match.

So what's the 1st round damage in terms of no-shows?
Well one person from every matchup has checked in. Just waiting on Kureishima/NIN 90 and Timedog/lostzenfound to play their matches, and Gowans/Deunnero to finish theirs. Deadline is Saturday per the above. Fyi again per the above there is one week after that to play the next round.

They were fun matches. I was sweating for a second -- and regretting for a minute that I was drinking a beer while playing.
The third match I totally won. I literally had the finishing attack about to happen, and Timedog didn't have any way to stop it, however I needed to use my creatures ability -- and sometimes the timer is so, so fast when you don't have any cards to play from your hand.
It snapped right to the attack phase before I could use my knight's ability for +3/+3. I was so pissed.
Timedog was a (sarcastically ) sore loser anyways...

Sweet. Once all the results are posted I'll put up some stats in terms of decks used, deck win rate, and whatever else I can figure out from the data we have.AstroLad said:

I went ahead and added everyone's gamertag in the OP to my friends list if I didn't already have them, including the waitlist peeps.
Yeah, whatever, dude. 2 of the games I would have had you -1,000,000,0000,000000,00.0000,000 hp if I had gotten one more land, but I'm pretty sure you were using cheat codes on my deck, therefore I don't count that as a loss. I'm real real sorry, but I don't play people who use inside job game hacks from the developers. It's simply not fair. As far as I'm concerned I'm the winner of this tournament.
I'll see you in hell.

Well, on the weekends I work both days all day and on the weeknights, NIN is available in evening when I work, I am available in the day when he works.
:-/
EDIT: are there any other unresolved matches we can switch partners with? Schedule just doesn't click at all.

Gowans, can you still play and get a match done in the next couple days? If so, I will put in a sub to play you.
NIN, if you can't play within the next few days let me know (or don't post!) by tomorrow as well.
Geezer and AT, you two are first up to fill in now. PLEASE STAND BY

you mean in to replace gowans007 to play against deunerro right?

Updated.

An unfortunate development.
So what will happen? I go through to next round? You should add something to the "Rules" just so this doesn't cause a stir.
I don't think someone should be able to jump in a series that has already started and gone for a majority of games.
Alright I've made an executive decision due to the huge amount of controversy this has generated. On this day, this silly tournament is the absolute last thing the media or anyone here should be discussing or focused upon.
The series will be continued. Since the series was 3-2 in Gowans' favor, Blue Geezer will step in for him with a 3-2 lead and you two will play out the last 2-3 games.
As I said somewhere earlier, in subsequent rounds the waitlist will no longer be used.
PEACE
