Yeah, definitely. I read my games, but skip to the bottom of others, and they're fun to read. I generally skim until you get the 10...9...8... stuff from a shot, but I sometimes then go backwards to figure out how it built up to that. The back and forth, point for point ones are really good, especially when there's a tide change from a blocked shot or an unusual turnover. I like when one team is ahead, then the other team ties it up, and they keep going one to one, then suddenly, team two gets a point and takes the lead. Good times.

Hope I didn't keep you guys waiting too long for the next blitz - it's been a ridiculously busy week for me at uni. Just about to send the next lineups to Bob though!

And I've got 'em now, but simming might not happen right away. In fact, maybe not for a few days. My wife is having contractions, so...yeah. Busy, to say the least. Will upload as soon as I can, but it has suddenly moved very far down my to-do list.

And by shit son, I'm not calling your son shit. Be a good Dad and make him worthy of the (middle) name Auron! ...that's still a thing right? Edit: Forgot to type 'not'. That could have been quite offensive...

A shit son to go with his shit father! Well, the baby watch is apparently a slow process. Apparently painful contractions can go on for a long time. Baby still not here, I'm back at home, watching my wife suffer. Can't do anything. Yay. So, since I'm not doing anything, we'll do a umm, Fleck's birthday blitzball update? Sure, we'll call this part one of his birthday update! Results are up. Get me line-ups...sometime. Next round might be delayed anyhow, but never know. Probably simming mid week, so get them to me before Wednesday and we'll aim for that. SPOILERS: It's upset round! Well, it seems like it, anyway. TME beat SM7, which felt like an upset until you check the standings and see that they're kinda rocking the house. Tied for second, basically. They WOULD be in a clear third place, but the Nightshades took down the Grizzly Bears...barely. It was back and forth, GB had the lead, then NS took it, but it was tied constantly, very back and forth. Good match. Otherwise, Goers rocked, Aurochs did...good for the Aurochs, I guess, but still a loss. And the Guests got their second win of the season! Close game with the Mercs. Kind of an entertaining read, actually. You know how most of the time, games are changed when a shot on goal fails? Especially those back and forth games? This one had a lot of that, but they still get the ball back. Larsa shoots! Worker 8 grabs the ball! And a short time later, Larsa shoots again and makes it! Same with the other team, just replace Larsa with Tseng and Worker 8 with Olan. Fun match to read. But tragic results (for me).

Okay, guys. Life is busy, but with not working this week, I actually do have a tad bit of time, so get me line-ups and we can jump into a game today or tomorrow. I'll sim later tonight, depending what line-ups I have.

I have different numbers for a few of my dudes. I haven't been checking updates, so I'm not sure where the disconnect came in, but I have:
Orlandu - 4 Galuf - 8 Kadowaki - 8
Amarant - 4
Orlandu won't matter as he'll be on bedrest after this round. Amarant will likely rest too, so also not a big deal, but Galuf and Kadowaki MIGHT be important. I can prove Galuf is at 8 though. He sat out Round 5 and played a defender in Round 6, so he's at 8. Kadowaki played goal both those games, so she's at 8.
Simming results in a bit! Don't have all line-ups, but I'll upload what I can.

Games are simmed! Line-ups by the weekend and I'll hopefully upload them! And as a quick reminder, this will be a double-elimination tournament. Remember that as you pick your next line-ups. I, for one, like to rest my forwards and such before the tourney, but the tourney will be a bit longer now, so still a good idea, but plan carefully because there will likely be rounds that your star players can't play.
SPOILERS:
Mostly close games. Good games this week. Biggest surprise? The Mad Experiments. They were so bad (sorry, Wyvern) in first couple versions of blitzball, but over the past couple leagues, they've been top contenders! Took down the Goers this time and they're tied for the lead in the league! Nice job, TME! The Grizzlies have a tough round against the Goers, and they might lose it. If they do, then the title will be up for grabs and depending on TME beating both of Fleck's teams. If Grizzlies lose to Goers and TME loses to either of Fleck's teams, then there's also an opening for Loveless and Goers to claim the tops. Should be interesting!
