Weekly round-up

Amazing things happening in Division A where pantherboy has lost his last two matches and now hidde has taken the top spot with 6 wins from 7 starts. ianiow is third with 3 wins from 4 matches. hidde has already beaten both his nearest challengers and so must be firm favourite for the title now. A very exciting promotion race has ended in Division B with Gorrick completing a clean sweep to secure the top spot, ahead of Nijis who has 7 wins from 8 and Kabill who finished with 7 wins from 9 starts.
