It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle.

We all knew it was a possibility, a likelihood even, we just didn't want to accept it. Though the time has come. My internet has won again and I must withdraw from this tournament.

SEA - means I'm pretty awesome
Just like old times, it's another ZvZ finals featuring EnDerr once again, but this time facing against MightyKiwi! And as you expected, MK did his trademark opening / cheese / whatever you called it and took down EnDerr with a score of 2-1. WP to both players!
To celebrate another milestone (15th time) next FFN, I'll be increasing the prize pool to $50. To end off this week, big thanks to Metalcore for casting at the start, until it was really too late in NZ for him to handle (I blame Wally and Schnitzel for this).
Once again, not all human beings are perfect and we can only strive to be. Because I've forgotten to add in Soundwave initially, I had to remake the brackets, causing some people to get tougher brackets and stuff like that. I'd like to formally apologise to everyone affected, and I'll really try to be more careful from now onwards!
