Group C was an odd group for this round of TANL. From what o]O2[o described it took "only" seven hours to complete the entire group, tiebreakers and all. Just because one extra player was added to the group to make a total of five. But good news is, Group D was very smooth and easy for everyone.
Here's the story about Group C, and why it was very stressful.
Play.SataNik was unreachable. No one in Play.iT could find him, 
o]O2[o could not located or contact him either. So on the day of the group's match, the host found a replacement for Play.SataNik, which was none other than 
iG.KaaZ. But 20 minutes after the "starting" time Play.SataNik shows up and makes a nice late entrance. Without disagreement from any players iG.KaaZ and Play.SataNik both played, which made a total of five in one group.Group C: Match Results MgZ)Eriador> ExistenT[SomE] LinYu)Pj> iG.KaaZ LinYu)Pj> ExistenT[SomE] LinYu)Pj> MgZ)Eriador LinYu)Pj< Play.Satanik Play.Satanik> Existent[SomE] Play.Satanik> MgZ)Eriador Play.Satanik< iG.KaaZ MgZ)Eriador< iG.KaaZ Existent[SomE]< iG.KaaZ |

So in the aftermath of it all
LinYu)Pj, Play.Satanik, and iG.KaaZ all came out in a three way tie. So they played another "mini" round robin, which was a best of three series.Group C: Extra Matches LinYu)Pj> iG.KaaZ Play.Satanik> iG.KaaZ LinYu)Pj> Play.Satanik |
In the end it was the Chinese all star, LinYu)Pj and Play.Satanik advancing to the next round of TANL #3.
Now, that was just the first group out the two played this past weekend. Group D was not as "difficult" for anyone as Group C turned out to be.
