sGPL: Round 1 replays

[s]sgpl[/s]Yesterday the first round of sG Power League was played. 5 games of 8 were played yesterday, and the 6th one today. We did a broadcast from the round which at least I enjoyed a lot, hope you did as well. However, there were some last minute changes as the league begun.

First of all, we got an e-mail from ToT)Arch saying that he shall withdraw from the league. Sure, we had said before that we should give a warning to any player not showing up, but since he left it all for unknown reason, we couldn't do much more than recruit another player. We only had a few hours to get in touch with the previously decided reserves to the league, but none of those were available, any of them! So, Mynock decided to ask Nazgul again after an admin meeting. Nazgul, who previously declined to join the league due to the lack of prizes, now decided to play. He told us that he was unsure however he would participate in the coming rounds but that was the best we could get in such a short notice.

Nazgul then replaced Arch who was about to play Rekrul. This is the results of their match:

The game we (Mynock and I) broadcast was the game between Socke and TreK. This match turned out to be a really entertaining one. It finally ended up with TreK as the winner after three games.

Daaman was about to play Mondragon, but something went wrong. After the first game, Daaman said that this was enough. He told me that he already before the league didn't feel like participating and wasn't motivated at all. He still showed up for his match but one game was enough. He skipped the second game with an apology, and left his group and the league for good. By a request from Daaman, we won't publish the replay of that game. The win instead goes to Mondragon.

SuKeR was about to play Eriador but didn't show up at all. SuKeR gets his first warning, three will result in a kick. Eriador won his first game by walkover.

Today the game between CopeTheUnknown and Ayrez (AKA Legion[Gamei]) was played, 18.00 CET. Results:
