Here we go again, and yes the crazy, unexpected, "What the hell happened?", "Are we really doing this?", and "Will we have enough players to even play?" moments did ensue.

It's Tournamant time again at the Kolledge with the Klowns warming up with some free play rounds to get everyone in the mood and more importantly, make sure everyone was here. Seeing that they would be a player short, there was some discussion of possibly having one of the head Klowns play, reaching out to past players, or just going with three rounds for the tournament. It was suggested that RS see if Little RS would be able to play. With a quick check with Mrs. RS, Little Rs, who will go by Tinker Captain, was given the green light. With Icky, Galaxy_Sayber and 0xtian also ready to go, the tournament was set to start.

The opening round of the tournament saw Icky facing off against Tinker Captain. Icky quickly showed the Klowns his skills by getting the first two goals of the game. Tinker Captain, though young, was able to cut the lead in half with a kickoff goal. Though strong on following kickoffs and scoring a long shot goal, Tinker Captain was notable to overcome Icky and lost the first game 4-2. Icky started game two off with a goal, but Tinker Captain was able to tie it up with a kickoff. Though Tinker Captain showed some impressive defensive moves and saves, Icky was able to outmaneuver him with some drifting skills and scored three more times. Tinker Captain was able to score one more goal in the final moments of the game, Icky was able to take the game 4-2 and move on to the Championship matchup.

After some rejoicing with the cool new visuals the Kolledge has for recaps and stats, the Klowns moved on to the next round: a friendly rivalry between 0xtian & Galaxy_Sayber. Both competitors started game one off strong, but the first goal went to 0xtian with a very impressive high altitude hit. They quickly followed up with another two impressive goals. After some back and forth, Galaxy_Sayber was able to get a goal to make it 3-1. Though 0xtian went on to add three more goals to his tally, Galaxy_Sayber was able to make an impressive comeback a add five more to his. This gave us a game tied at six goals each with only 58 seconds left. With both competitors playing defense we went into the first overtime of the tournament. 0xtian was able to score and take game one 7-6. The first ten seconds of game two quickly set up the tone for the series. With just four seconds into the game Galaxy_Sayber made the first goal, but 0xtian returned the second kickoff with his own goal keeping the game even. With many impressive goals, saves and moves these two kept us all on our toes and with just 2 minutes left in the second game 0xtian held on tightly to his one-point lead of 5-4. 0xtian took advantage of Galaxy_Sayber going for the boosts, but Galaxy_Sayber managed to catch up. With 33 seconds and the game tied at 6, Galaxy_Sayber was able to score quickly, but 0xtian was not ready to let the game go and evened it up with 17 seconds left. 0xtian was able to score quickly and took the game 8-7, winning the series and moving on to the Championship Series.

After trying to get an answer on the Klowns ongoing discussion of what to call the boat driver and stream issues, the Klowns were ready for the next round: the consolation round with Tinker Captain and Galaxy_Sayber. Galaxy_Sayber came right out and scored the first two goals of the game but Tinker Captain was able to claim the third goal with a signature kickoff goals.

Both competitors kept each other on their toes, trading goals until Icky was able to build a lead and took the game 10-5. Game two again saw Icky make the first goal and, after a quick break about Aqua Socks, we saw 0xtian score his first goal to tie it up.
