Tourney round: Universally Challenged: Round Robin

	Andy Platt That's 20, so enough for four teams of five players. Thanks for the interest.
	Andy Platt This starts on Sunday. I'll aptomail everyone involved in due course, but obviously if you can keep the next couple of Sunday evenings free that would be great.
	Andy Platt OK, so, through a combination of being busy and lazy, I've left it a little late to message people now. So we'll kick this off on December 7th if that's okay.
	Ian Volante I'm definitely busy that day :(
	Andy Platt Aptomail sent to all competitors.
	Andy Platt This starts in around two hours. Exciting times.
	Andy Platt Thanks to everyone who has played during the last three weeks. Next week's final will be the team of Tom Rowell, Dave Mattingly, Usman Mirza, Innis Carson, Heather Styles, and Jonathan Wynn facing off against Ian Volante, James Robinson, "Greg Holloway", DD White, Chris Marshall, and George Ford. It's sure to be a competitive one so try and bring your top players if possible. Cheers!
	Phyl Styles Thanks to you both for organising it, and gl to the finalists

	Giles H Is there a 3rd-4th playoff as well?
	Andy Platt Nah, easier just to run one final.
	Andy Platt Congratulations to Dave Mattingly, Innis Carson, Dave Mattingly, and Heather Styles, who made an amazing comeback in the final to win 240-215 from a whopping 140 point deficit at one point. An amazing final. Well played to everybody involved.
	Dave Mattingly Think you may be overstating my performance there just a tad, Andy. :) Thanks to Usman Mirza, as well as Innis, Heather and absent team members Jonathan Wynn and Tom Rowell, for an excellent performance throughout the tournament.
	Andy Platt Oops, I wrote your name twice instead of Usman's.

Tourney round: Universally Challenged: Round Robin

Notes from the organizer: A University Challenge style quiz, to be played on Sunday nights, on Apterous.

See Jon's post here for more info: http://www.apterous.org/ticket_view.php?ticket=2635

- It won't be as hard and as highbrow as the TV show but it will have a very similar format
- It won't require a commitment to be online every week as we should have five or six in every 'squad' even if only four play each week.
- It won't be dominated by one team as we'll separate strong players (through a method yet to be determined).
- It will be fun.
