I don't get the advancement thing. I was going to try to make a bracket at work but all the bracket websites are blocked here.

No advancement. Once you finish, you're done (join or start another pool if you wish). Just record the final standings as shown below. Later, I'll host an invitational tournamanet bracket for all the winners of these mini pools.

Just post the final standings once everyone has played 4 games, like this (example only).

Final Standings
4-0 Courtney / C0urtney04
3-1 JorgeC / JorgeinOntario
2-2 Downingthief
1-3 captncrzy
0-4 GoodGirlGalaxy / sebbarru

ADD ME: corbo

Just add your name to the bottom of the list (I just did it for you) and start a game with the four above you.

sebbarru beat me, zimmy's throwing out some ridiculous words and is up by over 100 right now.

0-4 captncrzy

Fixed. Yeah, Courtney definitely deserved to win this tourney, there was no way to top all those great moves.

[captncrzy]

Jesus, that's embarrassing. I've beaten Sean LOTS of times.

[downingthief]

Jesus, that's embarrassing. I've beaten Sean LOTS of times.

You have had a good run on me lately, for sure! I am starting a new streak, though.

[GoodGirlGalaxy]

So corbo, if you have started a game with me and haven't played a word yet, please let me know. Otherwise I'll start a game.

[Somewhat Damaged]

Just add your name to the bottom of the list (I just did it for you) and start a game with the four above you.

Finally finished my first game (sorry for the delays, fellows), defeating sebbarru in a back and forth match.

Sebbarru edged me out at the end. Good game.

[Wheres the beef?]

Somewhat Damaged's Tournament:

5. corbo

So that ol' corbo game never got going. So everyone is done with this tourney right? Somewhat defeated me, and I vanquished thetello and zimmy. What's the win-loss for everyone else?

[zimmy1222]

i'm 1-1, playing SD right now, EDIT: corbo and i playin now.

[thetello]

looking like 0-4 for me, got a bit to go with corbo though.

[GoodGirlGalaxy]

I started a game with corbo this morning, still no response.

[thetello]

he's more of a night time player, he'll get back to you.

[Somewhat Damaged]

Somewhat Damaged's Tournament:
1. Somewhat Damaged
2. sebbarru
3. thetello
4. zimmy1222
5. corbo

SD/sebbarru - SD
SD/thetello - probably SD (down to the last 2 tiles (1 for each) and I have a significant lead)
SD/zimmy1222 - very close, lots of letters left
SD/corbo - I'm leading but there are nearly 60 letters left still, so way too much time for victory to be assumed

[PlayaDelWes]

I beat gazercmh in the finals, which has sent us into a rematch since it's double-elim and we've each lost one game.

Here's the updated brakcet.

So corbo, if you have started a game with me and haven't played a word yet, please let me know. Otherwise I'll start a game.

When I saw this I had the song Best Around from the Karate Kid running thru my head.

[gazercmh]

DelWes is quite the Playa. After splitting our first two games, the rubber match came down to the wire, with me winning by a mere eight points. If it had been a best-of-seven series, I could easily see him winning...

[PlayaDelWes]

Congrats to gazer, winner of the big dance! Disciplined you are, not giving up any free bonus squares. I'm not sure you were giving it 'your all' the game before last.

Well done!

[stuporfly]

I just got my iPhone last week and have quickly become obsessed with this game. Alas, if only my skill matched my enthusiasm. I suck, is what I'm saying.

[captncrzy]

You'll get better and then you'll be unbeatable.

[stuporfly]

You'll get better and then you'll be unbeatable.

I'm starting to get a feel for strategy, not only in giving myself the best chance to generate points, but also to stop giving my opponent opportunities to blow me out of the water. I'm enjoying it immensely, even in the games where you've absolutely cleaned my clock.
