lol I got Milwaukee Lethargy.

Would you say I've got a tough match-up next Thursday?

(Get it? Your username is "tough". But "tough" can also be an adjective! Some people might not know that.)

8 - number of teams referencing Chicago in their name, the most well represented locale remaining in the cup

I should've counted as a 1/2 or something.

I think only 12 D5 teams left alive, and my friend and I are two of them!

Very nice fewmit! I have missed seeing these reports :-)

Round 6:

13 - number of NBBA teams still in, 81% of all NBBA teams
35 - number of II teams still in, 55% of all II teams
89 - number of III teams still in, 35% of all III teams
106 - number of IV teams still in, 10% of all IV teams
13 - number of V teams still in, 0.3% of all V teams
0 - number of VI teams still in, out of the 3656 VI teams invited
0 - number of bots still in
2 - highest ranking team still in (Bullish Mentality)
1892 - lowest ranking team still in (ALIS Rockets)
1770 - largest rank differential between opponents (#122 Nubsarehere and #1892 ALIS Rockets)
12 - smallest point differential between opponents (#6 Cross Chargers and #18 Demon Hoosiers)
60 - number of top 100 ranked teams still in
3 - number of teams referencing New York in their name, the largest city in the US and also the 3rd most populous state
2 - number of teams referencing Breckenridge, a brutish little backwater no one has ever heard of or been to
28 - number of relatively lopsided matchups featuring a I or II team vs a IV or V team
28 - minimum number of crunch times that will occur in this round

Everyone should just let me win. I'd be the best B3 representative since the Visionaries.

Good stuff. Unfortunately, I am in one of those relatively lopsided matchups. I was thinking about CTing it, but I think it might be best to turn my focus on promoting to Division III instead.

I'm proud to say I'm still in it, having ousted a D.II team and a couple excellent D.IV teams. Hoping to get another W next week so my team can be in the tourney after the ASG for the first time ever!

Yeah? Well I can wipe my own ass. I'm proud of that.
