Go! Christopher, go!

**Disclaimer: Posing the klickies is sometimes very hard and then getting the right angle with the camera even harder. So although things may seem to be different on the picture, the text is conclusive on what was happened.

In this match we have Sir Christopher and Sir Richard, The Red Dragon Baron "The Red Dick". Apparently Sir Christopher’s squire was missing at the parade because of sampling to much of the local wine. It is apparently pretty good wine.





On the first run Sir Christopher manages to get a shield hit. However he gives up a bit too much defense and gets hit on his breast.


Sir Christopher: 1 point
The Red Dick: 2 points



On the second run The Red Dick misses, whereas Sir Christopher gets another shield hit.

Sir Christopher: 2 points
The Red Dick: 2 points




In the final run Sir Christopher returns the body hit from earlier, but The Red Dick has no reply and misses.

Sir Christopher: 4 points (+2 PD)
The Red Dick: 2 points (-2 PD)

In the final match of the day we have Sir Adler of Saxony go against Sir Seamus Flynn.





In the first run they both get a shield hit.

Sir Adler: 1 point
Sir Seamus:  1 point



In the second run the lances also tap the shields

Sir Adler: 2 points
Sir Seamus:  2 points



In the third run the knights again manage to only hit the other’s shield.

Sir Adler: 3 points
Sir Seamus:  3 points



Then finally Sir Adler manages take another hit on the shield while expertly hits Sir Seamus on the body, getting him the victory.

Sir Adler: 5 points (+1 PD)
Sir Seamus:  4 points (-1 PD)

Drat and curses!  Well played, Sir Adler.

I was hoping Sir Seamus would be spurred on by his beloved Chicago Bears' glorious playoff victory, but alas...

Well, well, my squire eventually made it to the field! Lucky he has the flagpole to help him stand upright. Thanks Gis for the pics. ;-)
I hope Sir Christopher will do as well or better in the next stages!

In group H we start with Sir Christopher, who goes on the field against Sir Adler of Saxony




Sir Adler is not really focused on his defense and doesn’t mind taking a hit on his shield. The gut-buster move shown by Sir Elric in the previous match (see Group G) is what he looking for and he is able to pull it off with great success dumping Sir Christopher on the ground.

Sir Christopher: 1 point (-2 PD)
Sir Adler: 3 points, +1 honour (+2 PD)

In the final match of the second day we see Sir Richard, “The Red Dick” face off against Sir Seamus Flynn of Belarthe.





The Red Dick is able to score a point with a shield hit in the first run, however his shield was too low to prevent him from the gut body blow that Sir Seamus deals him. He is however able to stay seated and the match will continue for at least a second run.

The Red Dick: 1 point
Sir Seamus: 2 points



After all the exciting jousts in the last couple of matches the end of the day is actually a bit boring. Both man are able to hit the others shield. Nothing fancy, but very effective as it brings Sir Seamus the win in this match.
The Red Dick: 2 points (-1 PD)
Sir Seamus: 3 points (+1 PD)

[Gis]

After the second day we have the following standing in Group H:

1) Sir Adler: 2 wins, +1 honour, +3 PD
2) Sir Christopher: 1 win, 0 honour, 0 PD
3) Sir Seamus: 1 win, 0 honour, 0 PD
4) The Red Dick: 0 wins, 0 honour, -3 PD

Sir Adler has already secured his spot in the next stage of the competition and The Red Dick only has one more match to look forward to. Sir Christopher and Sir Seamus will have to duke it out for the final slot.

WHAT?! 
 This is not fair, I slipped down, somebody waxed my saddle!
You don't really think I'm out because I went to the ground, Sir Adler, do you? Well come here and taste my blade!
