How is it actually at the WSC? Women second!!

The head umpire announced the results and to my surprise (I probably should have prepared better) we don't go into a tie break, but we are straight into a first versus second match. BBBOOMMBBAA!!!! Tomorrow night at 9pm against the Scots for a place in the final. This was due to results on other lanes, especially the Scots winning. See you all later.

In the women's category, the Scots are in first place. The next five places are taken by teams with the same number of wins. In accordance with WCF rules, the one classified as the best has the second place and the rest, that is four, play first with fourth and second with third for the remaining two positions in the semi-finals. It is a bit funny that the Russians are in third place and will play Canada, which is classified as sixth according to the mutual matches of the four teams (i.e. the fourth of the teams that will play the tie break). But Canada will have the advantage of the last stone in the first end, because they won in the mutual match. It's not exactly simple math. What's important to us is that we're second (we're the only one of the five teams with three wins over the rest of the teams with the same number of wins), and that we'll be fighting like lions (more like lionesses) to advance to the final game. Fingers crossed for a stop tonight at 7, hopefully it will be on LIVE Chanel. Now help the boys with the energy they're sending out for the last important step in this category.
