Anyone had any reports back from our Worlds representatives? >From what I can see from the scores life is looking pretty tough out there for the Brits, with the Japanese being the big winners:
Open: Clapham lost a pool game in sudden death to Mephisto (Canada) and have started the peer pool stage getting thumped 17-9 by Buzz Bullets (Japan). Should still make quarter finals though... Fire also got beaten by Buzz Bullets and have started peer pools with losses against Chill y and Thong (both Aus). They lok like they will need to beat Mephisto to stand a chance of making Quarters. EMO are in the bottom half Mixed: LLL won their pool with 3 wins including a comfortable win over some Canadians (Camelot). Started peer pools with a heavy 17-10 defeat to Fisher Price (Canada). They need at least 1 win in the pool to make the top 16. Thundering Herd, Discuits, Ltd release, Sheffield have all won a game but are scrapping in the lower reaches of the tournament. Women: Iceni started with 3 straight wins but have since lost to HUCK (Japan) and appear to be 9-2 down to MUD (Japan). Will qualify for division 1 (top 12). Bliss look like they have scraped in to the top 12 by virtue of a sudden death win over bottom placed CUJC and coming out in the middle of a 3 way tie with Southside and Ishtar (Both Aus). Southside top the 3 way tie, then Bliss should go through as a result of their head to head with Ishtar, despite having the weakest points difference. But this needs confirmed by tournament organisers... Elsewhere in the tournament, the top Open seeds Sub Zero have lost twice to Thong (Aus) and Buzz Bullets. In the Womens division the 2 unbeaten teams are both Japanese. No other Europeans of note appear to be doing well in the tournament. So anyone know of any reports from people actually there?
