If you made it to the knockouts, congrats! That's an accomplishment. If you advanced to the elite 8, good job, you're elite.

Apologies for the delay in posting this. Some of the judges had a busy weekend. And then someone withdrew very late in the week, and we gave their spot to a sub, and we gave the sub more time to post given how little he would have had. That's why this took extra time. Moving forward, if you are going to withdraw, you need to do it at least 3 days before the deadline... otherwise, simply don't post I guess.

See the results below...

A good amount of upsets, wow. The closest match, to me, was between turtlepro and fayez, which ended 2-3. The match between disc and Seppy was also close, likewise ending 3-2. Every other match ended in a 4-1 score.

Congrats to everyone who advanced! You have two weeks to post and submit a new blog for the elite 8. February 21st, 10 AM CST, is the deadline. Good luck, and happy blogging!
