Crash!
the axe has missed and been impaled in the floor, Puzzel comes round the side and
Fa-lip
Tax Cutter is flung through the air, doing 2 complete rolls, Puzzel now coming in from the other side and
Fa-lip
another fantastic flip, Tax Cutter has been thrown right into the pit release, but he has landed on his wheels, but here comes Puzzel
Slam!
Puzzel crashes into Tax Cutter trying to push him towards Shunt, this is an absolute deadlock, but wait! Tax Cutter is pushing Puzzel towards the pit!, it may be slow progress, but it looks like its all over for Puzzel, he just cant escape, and just to add insult to injury, or should that be injury to insult, Tax Cutter has fired his axe and has made a huge slice in Puzzels flipper, but it seems to be stuck, Puzzel now teetering over the edge of the pit, he fires his flipper as a last desperate attempt to save himself
Cease
and its worked!, Puzzels flipper has flipped and swung Tax Cutter over himself using the connection made by Tax Cutters axe and into the pit, he may have followed Tax Cutter in but a win is a win, how unexpected
Tax Cutter needs to pay tax on some new parts

Wait, no third-place playoff?
Oh well. Good job Leo. :)
And good job Ben for finishing the mini-tournament before starting the major, which SOMEONE ELSE *cough*Paul*cough* should be doing.
no they can share third, im not cruel enough to do that, yet!:rofl:
...
I kinda feel I wasnt given enough time to give my tactics as you wrote the whole tournament in 1 bloody day
not a good start Ben
I agree with Martijn, a little more patience would have helped.
Still....
+1>I won! :-)
