One cannot get up early enough to sneak one by meep. This will be a struggle.
I see that @IPD fell for the trap!
Good news - I think nearly everyone has checked in and submitted throws that needs to, so we should really start seeing some movement now!
We’ve got two matches that are now at 2-0, but since all rounds are ‘Best of 7’ this year, there’s still plenty of time for a rally, so no need to panic if you’re behind… yet.
Meanwhile, we’ve had our first FIVE throw game of the tournament, and in a game with a rookie, no less. Just another friendly reminder for y’all: Don’t ever underestimate your opponent in RPS!!
Keep those throws coming!!!

Time to Rock-n-Roll and cut to the chase and serve those papers to @IPD!!
Says the dude that promised me a drink then refused once he realized I was a girl.
Great work, everyone! We’re all checked in now, and the matches are starting to move.
Tomorrow looks to be exciting, as we’re now up to four matches that are only a throw away from being a throw away from advancing!
A small favor for all the active players: there’s a pretty decent chance there will only be one update tomorrow, so if y’all could get throws in earlier in the day rather than later, I’d appreciate it. 'K? 'K!
Good luck, everyone!!

I see that I have @IPD quaking in his boots.
Our (lone) Friday update is an update of hope, of comebacks, of rallies…
We completed 4 games, and in each case the player that was down in the match won the game - in three cases it brought the match back to even, and in the fourth case it saved the player from receiving the first of the tournament! :phew: (Also notable was that Paper won in 3 of the 4 cases - I guess Fridays are made for throwing Paper? )
As noted, this will be the only update for today. However, if enough throws are submitted, I’ll provide a Sunday evening update, so y’all can have some exciting RPS news to read first thing Monday morning! So are ya with me? Yeah, I knew you were!!
So keep sending in those throws (and have a great weekend!)

Yep; @IPD is quaking . . . fell for that trap AGAIN.
I thought you were calling me a duck at first. I was shocked that you figured out my quacking strategy
It’s not his fault.
