Second Tournament: We got a winner!

On Thursday, the 14th of July 2009, after five weeks of hard matches and merciless fragging, the finals of the second Hedgewars Tournament went down.

Nemo & Magik_181 managed to pull of two consecutive wins and thus successfully beat Schischa & Norg in those exciting matches. Congratulations!

You can read Tiyuri's Score Sheet in the forums or watch the demos here.

Thanks to everyone who was part of this tournament, I hope to see you for the next one!
