Big League Tour
We begin of course with the regular jump so they don't all feel left out. Wait a minute is that marty_mcfly over there? Said earlier in the week he'd give it a go, went through on it. And on the "i lost to marty wall" in order you'll see photographs of luckypool's licker blast, texas outlaw hdtd from TourneyPool, HotShotz player Krash 97, Southside pool Genius from the Straightshots, and yes he would win the darn thing like Jeff Gordon, by beating 8ballrunner copenhagen8us amd XPooler shootalready69. As for that guy shootalready he knocked off SuperbPool's jivemaster, then took on ElitePool's here_kyle_is...or was, CueKeeper wessam_abouzeid, WildAngel kemorst, and the X_Monkey of Black&Silver...Can a cub get a "weeeeeeeee" somewhere? ;) All of the regul8ors...get ready...4 points from their 8 players came from the regular tourney, along with the 2 for getting 8 players. They get outscored by me...by me of all people yikes. shootalready by the way helped that XPool team with 6 of their 16 points this week.
In the cam tourney, you know, timestamp, taskmanager, that deal, yep that's Luis, didn't even get to the final last week sheesh, big relief to some people.
Round 1, let's celebrate Luis wisdom and bring up that line "big names don't win games" meaning of course, it takes more than a name to win...So Pita from regs against 8br's runningwildhorse, Pita should win that one right? All the Luis critics disagree with the big names statement...oi...running wins. Well PH's scpoolplaya can probably handle Moe right? Well...No. OK well at least JJ can beat me right? I mean it's not like I'm a BA reserve (I'll stop that if ya want me to JJ lol), and he ran me off the table week 1 back in season 3...Well...No. Ooh ooh there's PF Danny against HotShotz player Dazza my money's on Danny...Blah I'll pay ya later. OK so there's your big names against not-so-big names or people who nobody really likes because the haters are lamers, that lost. Also in round 1 PF's CoreyMMM, playing on a different name because apparently CoreyMMM was deactivated around 7:00...tourney closed much later. Supposedly the deal was rerack to soapbox bo3, soapy wins 1, byebye I win. Big heated wahhwahh at HQ, soap advances with that win...Remember that.
Round 2, big names don't win games unless your name is Luis and you play for PF and are loved by all the MLP admins, that means Neo we don't mean you. he beat Absolute Finest player fire wolf87...ah the tourney was only big enough for 1 wolf anyways. Defending champ _BiG__OnE_ from the Outlaws was able to put away BlackSilver Eddie, who left and rejoined BS presumably from a little in-league disagreement, all better now they hope. DreamPooler jack.boss after hitting a pair of royal flushes in as many days on JetSetPoker, well he beat LPL's romper. Why do you care? Stay with me. By the way I won, that's 8 Regs 4(without 2 extra for having 8 players) - Cubby 4.
Round 3, Oh what's an MLP cam tourney without...more drama? Before all the dramatics, let's watch last week's runner-up LuckyDog from the PoolMasters. He's got Beerballer The Great Zero...With a name like that you can sorta guess how that match went. LuckyDog moves on. By the way LuckyDog and BiG OnE on opposite brackets, rematch? Soapbox loses his game to Luis, would've liked a rerack. Heh. Excuse me while I clean up the soda I just spit out laughing. Kharma sucks don't it? BiG OnE against Trouble4some, the ace from 8BR, trumped. Big OnE still alive. As is jack.boss, as he beats BeerBaller towelie. I promised dramatics and i didn't mean soapbox, badking vs. guess who, yeah me. badking_got_carjacked of BlackSilver, coast, to coast, runs all 8, nothing fancy, no miss, "put me on sportscenter" as he finished. Careful what ya wish for there bk. Remember how Vickie got that win over PF Brandon last week? Oh history catches up so quickly. badking only has the timestamp up before the game, then at the very end, claims Tracey set it up for him, wellll that's why the rules are posted. He would leave many moons later with a smart remark over one of Sophie's harmless jokes to someone. So uh...yeah...Great I win...I'm going to round 4 lalalalala to face...oh crap. Recap: Regs: 4 - Cubby: 6. Or many many other individuals for that matter.
Round 4, Why the oh crap? Let me recite a bible verse I have memorized here. It says: Thou shalt bear witness, in a cam challenge, to greatness beyond what you may ever be able to comprehend. In lamen's terms that's Lulu. Found out the hard way the guy still has his form, and the season series stands Luis 1, Cubby 0. Hey that looks like Newcastle vs. Chelsea. Moving along, BiG OnE against jack, and Chris got "Jack"ed. he did however win a pair of other interleague teamers, you're forgiven. LuckyDog still alive, he's in the final 4 after beating a PoolFighter, eskim0s. Wait a minute...lemme make sure I have week 2 and not week 1's bracket here...Oh did they meet last week? Luckydog won that too? 2 back to back wins, against the same opponent, hey PH you're not the only ones *ouch* Do it next week Lucky I'll crack the PF-PFN jokes. MJ Tha King from the Outlaws stays in, by beating PoolFiction's Joe. So there's your final 4.
Round 5, Luckydog vs. Luis, MJ vs. Jack. Well Luis won. Jack or MJ? OK you cheated, no peeking next time. Jack advances, bet he's happy he gets to play Luis.
Round 6, Oh it's all Luis, all night, I'll have what he's having. Victorious game 1 on Jack's break, so Luis breaks game 2.
You know overall this was a really great tourney and I'd like to thank Sophie and the rest of the admin team who were involved for taking the time to do what they do. PoolFighters finish with 25 points, 15 of them, wha? I say 15 of them property of Luis, Inc. As for the winners of this 2nd week, give it to PoolFiction they put up 29 points along with Marty's regular jump victory, which netted them a cool 10 points. Overall it's PF with 60, Outlaws with 50, BlackSilver with 49, Fiction with 47, and PM round out the top 5 with 47. HappyPool and ChampionsPool though are making a big-time run for the top...they got zippo through 2 weeks.
That brings us to a little BLT Did You Know? You know 2 leagues with 0 points through 2 weeks is ugly, but last season? 3 of them, SuperbPool amassed an amazing 1. One of those 3 leagues with 0 points...HappyPool who finished the whole season with only 2 points.
Sorry for the lack of bolding, I had it all done neatly and I got a gay internal server error :\
