Good news, all:

I just received an e-mail from my Italian contact and he tells me that the next league on the MMC website should be open on Aug 25 and start on Sep 4.

Woo hoo!

**Shrykespeare** · by **Shrykespeare** on Wed Aug 19, 2009 6:52 pm

I've only gotten six entries for pricing schemes for Sep-Nov so far, including myself.

I know that Chien is out of the country and ozzy will not be able to do one. I hope I can count on the following:

JackO
Banks
Roode
jas
wrestler

And if anyone else wants to give it a try, let me know.

About to do mine now.

Shryke, you forgot mine Sad

**Shrykespeare** · by **Shrykespeare** on Thu Aug 20, 2009 11:29 am

I didn't forget you, delf. Yours is one of the six that I've received (seven, now, with Banks).

And me!

I'll try tomorrow night Shryke but I'm under a time crunch and am going to shortly be without internet for a week.

I'll see what I can do though...

**Shrykespeare** · by **Shrykespeare** on Fri Aug 21, 2009 11:59 am

I have received lists so far from:

Buscemi
delfinasu
numbersix
Banks
W
undeadmonkey
jas_8382

And, of course, myself. That means that if I throw out the top and bottom numbers, there will be five numbers to average. That's good, but I'd like at least one or two others.

I'll have mine in tomorrow. Just been busy at work lately

Players who still have Shutter Island on one or more of their slates:

Chienfantome (who is on vacation in Korea)
Dantic
Donte77
jfs556
leestu
mfrendo
silversurfer
thegreenarrow
undeadmonkey

Some news in the BO tournaments, particularly the HY tournament. chugsthemonkey, who was in no danger of being eliminated in Round One, has told me that he wants to pull out of the BO tournament due to lack of interest (he's pretty much strictly an Ultimate player). What this means is that one person who would have been cut next week will now survive.

I have plugged Monday's numbers from BOM into the grid, and here are the down-to-the-wire races in the two BO tournaments (I'll be updating this all week).

FULL YEAR

23. Dantic (HP6, 500DoS) (has an IM)
24. wcrew2000 - $26M behind (GF, AITA, TTW, D9, IB) (has an IM)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
25. jjtkaze - $29.3M behind (UT, Halloween 2) (does not have an IM)

wcrew should pass Dantic easily, which means it will all depend on H2's first three days.

HALF YEAR

42. TBB (Ugly Truth)
43. Lordagoth - $21.0M behind (GI Joe)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
44. numbersix - $21.4M behind (500DoS, FP, D9)

I think Lordagoth is toast.

Toast. All toasters toast toast. Smile

**silversurfer19** · by **silversurfer19** on Wed Aug 26, 2009 2:59 pm

I once had a toaster which refused to make toast. As good as I ever got was warm bread. Needless to say, that toaster is now toast.... Oh the irony.

Looks like you needed Mario to see what the problem was.

I have plugged Tuesday's numbers from BOM into the grid, and here are the down-to-the-wire races in the two BO tournaments.

HALF YEAR

42. TBB (Ugly Truth)
43. numbersix - $19.3M behind (500DoS, FP, D9)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
