Ah yes, group predictions (W/RU):

Group A: Angband/Moria
Group B: Nargothrond/Mirkwood
Group C: Hithlum/Gondolin
Group D: Eregion/Mordor
Group E: Armenelos/Dor-lomin
Group F: Taniquetil/The Shire
Group G: T-I-G/Tuna
Group H: Valimar/Bree

A question: is home advantage a factor?

Not really, but that doesn't mean we can't write it as such.

It looks like we have ten people who are fully into this thing. McCaber and Hakon have teams but haven't made predictions. Elmo said he's playing but hasn't made his selections yet. That would give us 13 teams.

And it looks like Nerwen and Lari might play, so we'll wait for them to make their picks, which would bring us up to 15. Once those people are on board (or say that they're not) we will begin. So anyone else who wishes to play- time is running out!

All right, people. We have twelve teams fully entered and Hakon's team without predictions. I'm going to give Hakon as well as a couple of individuals who said they were going to play one more day to complete things, and then the tournament will begin and results will start rolling in.

Boro (Boro's Blunderbusters)
Eomer (The Rage of Ten Thousand Wargs)
Eonwe (Eönwë's Egregious Aggregate)
Gwath (Gwath's Lynch Mob)
Hakon
McCaber (The Nameless Ones)
Morm (Monkey Stink)
Nerwen (Nerwen's Nitpickers)
Nogrod (Noggerball)
Shasta (Team Shastafarian)
Skip
TGEW
Wilwa (Wilwa's Wonderful Winners)

If you want a team name, just post it.
