Is there Group C still ...
or Canada3 & Romania going to next stage definitely ...
or there is any strategy the others don't post results ...
or anything else   ?

Yes there is group C and its still alive  
infact usually I post results in consolidated form so thats one reason and 2ndly unfortunately I could not recruit players this time and got stuck with couple of players who don't respond to anything and even don't bother to start games(I reckon challenge criteria is also a reason,even if they read msg and when an opponent has a challenge criteria and they fail to start a game, they don't report it to captain)...anyhow its a different matter..I am gonna update current results and hope this did not cause any inconvenience

Dear ChWaqasAhmed,
when winning the games against Iran I was extremely lucky in at least two of the games. In the games with lyon1337 and ali1346. In the first I had a lucky roll when actually the game was as good as lost. He left a blot on the 6 which I hit. Maybe it would have been wiser to leave the piece on the 7 while I was still 1 man out because a direct hit would not have been possible. The other game was really close and I had lucky doubles which gave me a 1-piece advantage.
Now I hope my luck is spent not too early!
Thank you all for the opportunity to play people all around the globe and thanks to the organizers to put in so much work and making other people happy.

The game between Mariusadi and Mikkim, in the Pak-Iran v. Romania match,was never started.
I contacted both players and am satisfied that Mariusadi did the best he could to challenge Mikkim.
I am still waiting for a response from Mikkim.
If he fails to reply by Saturday, 5 November 2016, I will award the game to Mariusadi on a forfeit.

@ChWaqasAhmed: Mikkim is your player. Please urge him to challenge Mariusadi and respond to me.

@chingachkook
enjoy it bro, lady luck in BG is very cruel so enjoy till it lasts  .. in past team Germany used to b week, ur captain is a dear friend of mine and its very good of him to play for Germany despite having strong teams of USA. and regina is also a friend and SH know I am a supporter of Germany in football also so i am happy with the progress of u guys  

@host
as game started on friday so i did not respond.
I was mentally prepared for forfeit as i had sent many msgs to mikkim and by the way i still have not got a single response, despite requesting him to acknowledge me every time.
marisuadi discussed me the matter but he was not getting response from mikkim so we were helpless but then i did some investigation   and came to know he did start few games himself in the tourney so that meant he atleast reads my msgs  .. so i concluded that he could not challenge marisuadi due to challenge criteria and he also had a very bad challenge criteria also of just 1 active game   so that could have solved only by adding each other as friends.. thanks to marisudai its sorted out now, but I am sorry for the inconvenience and i got the lesson for future to work beforehand and recruit players myself to avoid this situation   .
PS: I asked him couple of times before start of tourney that is he willing to play from ours side and did not get reply of those msg either   and as i was busy, could not recruit players and tourney started so i sticked with the players which i got  

@ehsan
love is all that matters  
and Nations tourney is a good advocate of it, one has to lose and thats a not big deal,

@general
i am observing that more people are excited and actively participating in this tourney and i am not that much active in this tourney even did not see the full roster of teams... got a few PMs also which shows that Nations tourney is growing..its good. keep it up guys


thanks to yiannakos, ricetta and my dear friend and scorer Alain.. Well done guys and carry it on
