The best of luck for the rest of the tournament mate.

Thanks, Pacey.
I certainly think you had the team to win, but luckily for me things rolled my way this week.

One thing I know is that anytime I've ever matched up with you in any comp, I always know I'm in for a tough match.
Good luck for the rest of the season, especially in SC and VSDT where you're having blinders!

The dream final is still alive

I've got a tricky enchanted glossy flamingo to get past first...   🦩

I'll help you out so you don't have to scroll down a few places.

Poor man's Drink Latrell vs Drinkwater

Poor man's Yeo Frizell vs Yeo

Poor man's Ramien Manu vs Ramien (didn't you trade him out the week before I traded him in? oooffstones.jpg)

Poor man's Haas' replacement vs Haas' replacement (Bula or DRussell if traded in cancelled)

Probably only 4 different. Not sure about Lemu's status. Looking forward to an all-Tigers final with whoa whoa Eaaasyboy

Looks like you also have the poor man's comma, the space .

Not sure why I do that. Must be the rural lifestyle and all this wide open space to move and breath and take in all the wildlife.

Maybe check for ticks?

Only parasites around here are the ones that blow in from the city

Nice, but the only thing blowing in will be the tumbleweeds accompanying your future Eliminator prospects.

Will make it official later, but the bants indicates we have two Tigers, an Aardvark and a Flamingo left. Congrats to the top 4!

Thanks mate. You were really unlucky with Lemu and Munster was just one play away from running me down still.

Hopefully no more bad luck for your team and another strong finish is on the cards  

Cheers, been steadily working my way up over the last 10 rounds or so. Up to 162 overall now so hoping I can keep climbing and sneak into top 100 by end of the year. Will need some luck to go my way though with only 1 trade left.

Best of luck to you too for the rest of the year

ROUND 24 - QUARTER FINALS RESULTS

BRANDON AND SANDON
(17) Bish's Beasts 962 - 986 Winnie's Blues (25)

MING AND JING
(12) Captain-Role Model-Aardvark 943 - 891 Reanimated Freaks (4)

NUTCHER AND EUTCHER
(3) NRLFF - Easy Tiger 939 - 868 Pacey's Best (54)

iKATOA and eKATOA
(7) CNKo de Mayo 892 - 890 NRLFF - Liddle Schoupp of Horrors (18)


WT Winfield is the lowest seed in the semis, but he comes in with the highest score from R24. UKJC had the second highest score, but the misfortune of being his opponent. Winfield now against Aardvark. The 2nd successive year there's been an Aardvark related username in the semis, after Ratnick last year.

The other semi see the classic battle in the wild - Tigers vs Flamingos! (I haven't actually watched Attenborough at all). Easy Tiger could become the Lord of the Eliminator. Or it might be EGF.


ROUND 25 - SEMI FINALS

(25) 986 Winnie's Blues vs (12) Captain-Role Model-Aardvark

(3) NRLFF - Easy Tiger vs (7) CNKo de Mayo

I'm just happy to have won the Nutcher Eutcher bracket, mostly so I can use the Eutcher term.

I wonder if I should re-brand to ETutcher - sounds a bit Dylan Brownish for my liking

The Nutcher Eutcher bracket was going to be whatever part of the draw Milchcow landed in. Other three were completely random

Incredibly lucky to sneak away with the win, best of luck ET

I'm not sure any of us would be here without some good fortune (I certainly wouldn't be).

All the best!

Lord of the Byes style update - can't all win the Eliminator, but these are the big movers from when seedings were set (R18) to now (R24)

mytvbroke - 21st to 9th in FOG, I think in the 60s in overall now. Would be seeded 8th rather than 15th if the Eliminator started this week. Might have even got through R1 that way...

awanamafia - beat Booze in eliminator, has more than halved his FOG rank from 52 to 25.

WT Winfield - semi-final reflects the charge - up from 43rd to 26th in FOG

snatchpato - 94th to 68th in FOG
filthridden - charging into the top 100 (123rd to 99th)

B/L - former survivor host assures me his team is also on the charge, possibly even a famous one

I feel acknowledged.

What about the people who's rank has dropped the furthest and wouldn't have got past Round 1 with their current rank ? That Mayonaise de Sinkhole bloke comes to mind

I thought that was a bit mean but I could do it.

I also can't work out who Mayonaise de Sinkhole is, although I'm sure it's obvious if you spell it out for me.

It was a shit joke aimed at Mulvy because he knocked me out. No need
