Joey Russ 7,225 Posted April 22, 2020 And with that is the second non COVID related hit of the month. Sir Creep logic of playing the same person 3 months in a row proved right once again, as after Ernie Thacker proved him right last April, Robert Sirko also proved him right this time. Only difference is that while last he was beating me by a comfortable margin, this time he’s fighting for another day in the cup... 1. Clorox vs Deadsox 9 - 12 2. Sir Creep vs msc 4 - 9 3. Book vs JiroemonKimura 6 - 16 4. Chorizo vs Quim Reaper 12 - 0 5. Grim vs Grobler 6 - 0 6. DeathByArsenic vs Torva 9 - 6 7. An Fear Bag vs YoungWillz 9 - 6 8. Banana vs Death Impends 6 - 15 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,225 Posted April 22, 2020 Make that 3 non covid related hits for April. But the Brandes hit is more important, as it gives Clorox a very narrow lead against deadsox. This match is far from over, but at least deadsox can be proud of the fact that even if he ends up losing the match this time, he gave a much stronger performance this time against Clorox than last time deadsox was up against him... 1. Clorox vs Deadsox 13 - 12 2. Sir Creep vs msc 4 - 9 3. Book vs JiroemonKimura 6 - 16 4. Chorizo vs Quim Reaper 12 - 0 5. Grim vs Grobler 6 - 0 6. DeathByArsenic vs Torva 9 - 6 7. An Fear Bag vs YoungWillz 9 - 6 8. Banana vs Death Impends 6 - 15 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,225 Posted April 30, 2020 With under 24 hours to go, here is who’s up to return in case one of our quarter finalists don’t turn something in: 1. Deadsox 2. Book 3. Banana Book and Banana had more hits than the two Prine jokers, so that’s why their ahead of Torva and Willz to return. At this rate more than one returnee is unlikely to say the least, but I’m mentioning it just in case... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,442 Posted April 30, 2020 Just in case Sir Creep doesn't have two hits in 6 hours, I have sent in my Quarterfinal team. Good luck to @Death Impends on their inevitable advancement to the Semifinals! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deadsox 894 Posted April 30, 2020 I just sent a team in Joey in case Kane or Stanley come through or in case someone neglects to get a team in. Please excuse the extra "e" in Killer Tim Brooks. Advance congrats to Clorox for a great match. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 7,970 Posted April 30, 2020 Good game Banana, unfortunate that it was so lopsided but this month was ultimately a matter of who picked the right lottery tickets. Would've been far closer in usual circumstances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
