Wow.

Possibly the most intense Elim games I've ever seen.

Here's the posted results. Congrats to everyone - really great!

I'm confused at the 3rd game of finals -- did coast 2 coast survive wiht all 5 people and have the highest score? Because that's what it looks like according to that grid unless I read it wrong. If that's the case they should have gotten a 1 not a 3 in that last game, and then theyd have 7 instead of 9... not that it makes any differnece I just wanna make sure im reading it correctly.

That's what it shows to me. If that is a true mistake that would put us in first that game and drop us to 7 points. We still lose by 1 rank point and 800 total points in a tie breaker but it's a bit closer than stated above. We gave away our only winning spot after the first game and still managed to pull out a game win in finals, is what it is but we definitely played as if we could win finals games......

^^^ Unfortunately that is a downside of using excel to keep track of scores - it leads to transcription errors. Torn on the other hand (an application that EVERY site in Australia uses, and is used for the National Tournament) doesnt have these issues.

EDIT: It also has the added bonus of producing pretty tables and whatnot... eg http://dougburbidge.com/OzNationals/2011_team.html

yeah, why aren't they using torn? and why isn't doug at worlds?

He was at last worlds, wanted to use torn, and was told no, they prefered to use excel spreadsheets as they were more accurate.

Torn is flawed doesn't work right... We are using both. If it worked right we would use it more.

Im sorry what? How is it flawed?

Is wrong a lot. Just know it doesn't work right so they are tracking both. Surprised you didnt know it didn't work right.

I've found a bug in java
