There has been another death in my family and I won't be available to run Mini-Matches this Saturday.     Tam may be able to.  If he can't, anyone else is welcome to host.  Just let me know the results so I can post here.

Sorry,

Congrats to zbilbo, who took first place today and to onion for making such a good final match!   

I'm not sure what happened to cowgirl in the tourney.     She was showing in the player lineup but was not included in the brackets.  This may have been a TourneyBot error, but until I speak with cowgirl, we won't know quite what happened.  At any rate, since she did not play, there were only 16 players so lower points will apply. 

Thanks to all the players!

Nice little lead you have there, PHunter!      I'm not too far behind, tho, as are several others!  

Hope to see you all on Fibs next Saturday at 1000 Dallas time to join in the fun and make some upsets!  

As usual, let me know by private message if you find any errors here!

PHunter manages to keep his nice lead, but we have two more weeks to play this month, so it's anyone's game!  

Hope to see all of you on Fibs to join in the competition next Saturday at 1000 Dallas time (1600 UTC)!

PHunter is still holding first place with only one more Saturday to play!  Nicely done!     Still a few players who can knock him out of that position.   

Hope to see all of you on Fibs next week at 1000 Dallas time as usual!

Kudos to PHunter for December Champion title winner for December!     Hard to do in this crowd!     Thanks to don for giving us an exciting final and for taking 2nd place title this month!  

I think this has been the most turnout of any month for minis and a smooth one, too!  Thank you all so much for participating!  

Hope you all can join me next Saturday at 1000 Dallas time on Fibs!

Have a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!     Remember to stay safe and appoint a designated 
if you are out and about in an auto!
