1 Barra(uda
2 The Hammer
3 JokeToy
4 Saul Pum
5 daveszum
6 albeitar
7 jvick25
8 borisumi

JokeToy and Saul Pum are currently tied with 12 tournament points each. The tiebreaker giving JokeToy the #3 seed is his 561 total Victory Points in all tournament games vs. Saul Pum's 552 total Victory Points.

daveszum and albeitar are currently tied with 10 tournament points each. daveszum gets the #5 seed with 532 total Victory Points vs. albeitar's 482 total Victory Points.

The ROUND 3 match ups are based on the tournament field being seeded as above:

@TWO#13 [1] Barra(uda v. [3] JokeToy v. [5] daveszum v. [8] borisumi
@TWO#14 [1] Barra(uda v. [4] Saul Pum v. [6] albeitar v. [7] jvick25
@TWO#15 [2] The Hammer v. [4] Saul Pum v. [5] daveszum v. [8] borisumi
@TWO#16 [2] The Hammer v. [3] JokeToy v. [6] albeitar v. [7] jvick25

All ROUND 3 games are private 4-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.

In keeping with the tradition of asking the high seeds to do a little more work: (uda, please create @TWO#13 and @TWO#14; Hammer please create @TWO#15 and @TWO#16.

These are the last Tikal Winter Olympics qualifying games. The four tournament point leaders after this round will move on to the playoffs. Please, please, let's play at a reasonable pace by making at least one bid or tile placement a day. We don't want the Winter Olympics to drag on until the middle of the summer so it's up to all of us to play as fast as we reasonably can as a courtesy to our fellow contestants.

I expect some hard fought battles in the final push to secure playoff berths so go ahead, bare your fangs and come out snarling
