Challenge Smackdown North Europe

First game played! - Apollyon - 15/05/01

I almost thought it would not happen anymore but actually two teams managed to play their 1/8 final game tonight. Reigning Smackdown champions Flaming Fist from Sweden faced the Four Kings from the UK. The match itself was rather onesided, FF stomped 4K twice on dm3. The game was exciting to watch however with many specs complaining about FF's luck/skill and cheering for 4K to reach double figures each. Flaming Fist are in quarterfinals now where they will face either Koff or ToT. For the exact scores and screenshots look at the report (there is a link to the left), a detailed report will follow tomorrow. Demos from ff-Pietro pov are also available at challenge-tv.
Out of the remaining 7 games two have already been sheduled. ToT-Koff (18.5 22:00 cet) and RC-OMG (19.5 19:00 cet). The other games are not sheduled yet and i am rather disappointed about the teams involved. They were either too lazy to shedule, want to postpone two weaks or so until all their topplayers are available or other lame reasons. A few teams are ready to play any day, though. In my opinion, some commitment to this tournament is not too much to demand from players. I am not yet sure how to handle this, maybe i will draw winners from the games that have not been played until a certain date.
