Dave Robjohns In surprising scenes, James was the champion here - so becomes the 9th player into finals (and the 5th to do it in their first entry) - picking up 8 pencils along the way too!!

Tourney round: Super Sixteens: Round 9: Duckdown

<< Round 8: Unlimited 15 | Round 10: Goatdown >>

Notes from the organizer: Super Sixteens: Sixteen quickfire tournaments across sixteen variants each featuring sixteen players, playing fifteen (d'oh) rounders.

To clarify, this tournament will involve sixteen straight knockout tournaments (random draws). Each tournament will start as soon as we reach 16 players, with around one week given per match.

The winners of the 16 tournaments will qualify for the finals, carrying their "speciality" variant forward. There, they will play against another winner in both of their speciality variants, with a best of 5 if needed. But I'll cover that when we get there!

But then, there's a catch (or three):
First - if you win a tournament, you can't enter any more (since you are through to the finals!)
Secondly - the next tournament will open for sign-ups at the end of the first round of the previous one (or after one week), and begin as soon as we reach 16 players. If you're yet to be eliminated in the previous one, you miss out!
Thirdly - The upcoming tournaments are unknown... there will be a list of formats in the spreadsheet, but the order will be random.

So, tactics come in to play - will you enter as many as you can, or hold out for a favourite format?! Some might gamble and miss out altogether, and we might see some surprised winners - should be an interesting one!
