All ROUND 2 games are private 3-player contests using the AUCTION format, end-to-end worker movement, with password 2013TWO. When you create a game please use the comment section to list the players for that game and leave "end-to-end worker movement" checked.

Saul, please create @TWO#05, @TWO#06 and @TWO#07. jvick, please create @TWO#08, @TWO#09 and @TWO#10 . Hammer, please create @TWO#11. (uda, please create @TWO#12. Note that I did make the higher seeds work just a bit harder to launch ROUND 2

Let's do our best to get these games underway today. We all have 3 games to play this round ~ it will be important to keep up the pace so the tournament doesn't just drag on. Please put up the suitcase if you're unable to make a bid or take a turn for more than one day ~ thanks!

OK, enough talking, let's jump in head first! Good luck to all of us this round and let's have some fun rumbling again in The Jungle

[The Hammer]

Game @TWO#11 is up and ready to join folks.

Interesting 1st round with some of the seedings changing. I'm sure as the tourney moves forward we'll probably see that occur again.

Looks to be a pretty tough 2nd round coming my way especially with game 05 with Saul and JT. Not that games 09 & 11 are going to be any kind of cake walks. JV and Al are always very, very formidable and JT and dave can and will throw those curve balls and slip one up.

Best of strategies folks in this round! Happy gaming.
