Let it be known that, as a result of the YWS Cup II, PenguinAttack has at long last reviewed something of mine.

It only took, what? Six years?

I won't be around for the ending of the matches tomorrow at 2 pm GMT so don't be alarmed if I don't post the results immediately. I will confirm the results in the early evening.

Also, as Teacake013 has not replied, @Dracula will go through to the second round due to LadySpark pulling out.

If it is not too late- I need to drop out! :(

I did not realize what day it was and I will be really busy this week with school, and home, and things like that! Sorry to all! Maybe next time! :(

If any one wants to join last minute, here is the spot! Again- sorry to all!

Why are so many people dropping out? This make me sad :( because this is so much fun and the prize is really great!
And the scores 1-0? That really isn't the YWS Cup spirit, it should be more like 30-40? What is happening with you all reviewers? :( Wake up guys, we really need to start doing mega-reviews and the numbers should be high!

Round two is about to start, lost. Unless Fire approves it in the next 15 minutes, it seems unlikely.

It's okay if I don't join.. I know its a late start in the game, i just thought since some people were dropping out I thought I could even out the teams in a sense..

Matches 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 have finished!

Final scores

Match 1

Zhia x - x Juniper

JUNIPER PULLED OUT SO ZHIA GOES THROUGH!

Match 2

Widdershins 8 - 7 buggiedude2340

WIDDERSHINS ADVANCES TO THE SECOND ROUND IN A NAIL-BITER! BUGGIEDUDE HAD AN EIGHTH REVIEW BUT I WAS DONE AN HOUR AND A HALF BEFORE THE START OF THE MATCH SO DOES NOT COUNT!

Match 3

PenguinAttack 3 - 6 Iggy

NOT QUITE THE BOUT WE WERE EXPECTING, BUT IGGY ADVANCES! SOMETIMES LIFE GETS IN THE WAY!

Match 4

Strange 2 - 1 AstralHunter

WELL... THIS DIDN'T EXACTLY GET GOING, BUT STRANGE LIMPS THROUGH IN TO THE SECOND ROUND.

Match 5

Morrigan x - x TheWanderingWizard

THEWANDERINGWIZARD PULLED OUT SO MORRIGAN IS THROUGH!

Match 6
AdrianMoon 1 - 0 Arkhaion

IN A VERY QUIET MATCH, ADRIANMOON'S 1 REVIEW IS ENOUGH TO PUT HIM THROUGH!

Match 7

meandbooks 17 - 14 ArcticMonkey

HERE WE GO ... THIS IS BETTER! MEANDBOOKS ADVANCES TO THE SECOND ROUND IN A HIGH SCORING MATCH WITH ARCTICMONKEY!

Match 8

wolfare1 75 - 75 KatyaElefant

WOW. CONGRATS TO BOTH THESE COMPETITORS. IN ONE OF THE HIGHEST SCORING YWS CUP MATCHES EVER, THEY BOTH FINISH ON 75.

As the rules state:

In the case of a tie, there will be a coin flip to decide the winner.


I flipped a coin and the winner is: WOLFARE1! Congrats.

If anyone else drops out in the 2nd round, KatyaElefant will be first in line to be reinstated as the highest scoring loser, followed by ArcticMonkey.

To summarise, the entrants going through to the second round are:

@Zhia
@Widdershins
@Iggy
@Strange
@Morrigan
@AdrianMoon
@meandbooks
@wolfare1
