Right. But then again 4-4-2 is a legal formation as well...

As much as I hate losing a player Gothmog II has been garbage for me so not a big deal but man my team is dwindling quickly.

Look at the bright side of it morm!

mormwolf is on the third place of the still playing characters in the AKM star-standings! Congrats!

And the Confederations Cup final was Brazil vs. the US. You can't complain whatever the result...

I need Hithlum to win. Otherwise I have only Ar Zimrathan on my team. How did Mirkwood win? I hope Aremenlos beats them.

I should have gone with my almost last minute change. Changing Eonwe to Turin. The important thing is to get points even if it means using dead wood players. If I am right about the way the next round matches will be, it is Aremenelos VS Mirkwood and Angband VS either Dor Lomin or Hithlum.

You are right. That's the game...

I think most of us are really in need of players right now - myself included... Darn surprises! But some may have gotten it nicely (dares not to check and leaves that to tp).

Well, that's it folks! The semi-finals are...

Angband versus Hithlum

Armenelos versus Mirkwood

You know what's weird? Two of last year's semifinal teams are back, and really it's kind of like three because Hithlum and Formenos from last year kind of got mixed together. And Angband and Hithlum matched up in the playoffs last year too.

You know what's even weirder? Boromir correctly predicted the scores of 7 of the 8 teams!! The only one he had wrong was Valimar. Serious kudos, Boro. That's got to be some kind of record.

Anyway, I'll get all the official points and whatnot up either late tonight or tomorrow morning. Feel free to make your predictions and TWO allowed trades. The star limit is NINE.
