Cmon Graham you can do it
I already know which round I'll likely bomb out... which is a shame considering the 2 games that follow it

Better, but still hovering just below the dotted line. If three more people enter we get 16 through to the next round though...

Welcome back

Just three days left of this round now. Don't forget that 16 people can go through as a maximum, so even if you're currently near the bottom (like me) there's still hope. If you still want to take part and haven't entered yet, best to do it soon

Great to see you getting involved earok

Now we have enough players for a full 16 in the group stage. For those unaware it's split into four groups of four people, with the top two from each group eventually advancing to the quarter finals. Remember it's seeded as well so it's worth trying to improve your position even if you're safely in the top 16.

A 'quick go' before I went to bed in the early hours turned into my best effort since the original SWIV round in 2008.

You certainly made a good improvement there Graham. I wish I could help you, but you forgot to include the stats on your progress in your previous screenshot, so I have no idea which bit you find difficult. I guess it doesnt really matter with one day to go, but do check out my video on Lemon for tips.

@ earok - Welcome to the competition. We love to see full screenshots like above if possible, or why not post a large image as an attachment. Its not really an issue for this game, but may be critical later on.

I got a bit of a shock when I logged in a couple of hours ago and saw that I wasn't qualifying, now I'm frustrated I didn't make it into the top 8.
