Thanks, same to you SG, my nails are quite a bit shorter after that round!

Quick Summary:

:oh_noes:

The back-and-forth match continues for the last Elite Eight seat, and the match could be one throw away from being done!! :open_mouth:

Can AbstractActuary force a Game 7, or will Ted_Hoffman put this one away? Stay tuned to find out (and keep sending in those throws! :+1:) .

Looks like the long break may’ve affected OldTimer… or it’s all part of a very very well-analyzed and thought-out plot here! :tfh:

Thanks, AA. I was a little nervous down 2-1, but finally got in a groove. Hope to see you again next year, on the other side of the bracket!

… and OldTimer shows that the rust has been knocked off now - got the ol’ 2-throw combo in play to tie things up!

Stay tuned for the pivotal Game 3 - who will be the first to get halfway to the Final Four?

Surprise Friday update!! (If throws are submitted, updates will appear! :magic_wand: )

It looks like OldTimer is fully back into the game after a not-so-brief rest… unless now it’s TedHoffman pulling some strategery! :tfh:

Stay tuned - Game 4 could be rather telling!
