You can all move on to Branch 11 today, if you haven't already.

The chainsaw date for Branch 10 has been met (July 29).
[MENTION=4428]MrMet[/MENTION]: You can move on to Branch 11 on Monday August 1.

**Please note that the final two branches do not have an automatic completion option, only an aid.

Just for clarification, but in Aces & Jacks, do you only need one pair to do what is said? That's how I read it.

No, all five pairs must be cleared in order to move on. Please see the How to Play section. Unless otherwise specified, each scenario stands on its own, and must be completed to clear the branch.

However, they do not have to be completed on the same day.

The only chainsaw assistance is on August 12 when you can remove any two pairs, thus requiring only 3 pairs to be cleared.

Hope this makes sense.

That was my confusion. I was thinking there is no way we only need one pair. It can be done on separate days is what I was missing. thanks.

Branch 11 is tough to keep track of! I'm just going to put this here so I can keep track more efficiently.

Card 7:

Card 8:

Yordano Ventura 8Ks/Chris Davis HR on August 12, 2016
Ian Kennedy 8Ks/Josh Donaldson HR on August 26, 2016


Checked through 9-24

I would imagine most of you are still working on Branch 11, but if you are on Branch 12, you may now use the initials from Branch 1 to help you out.

Just a month or so left...don't give up!
[MENTION=4428]MrMet[/MENTION], you may also apply this rule for Branch 12 starting today.

Nice! You can move on to branch 12 retroactively to Sept 13.

Still time to win this, even if the odds are stacked.

It is impossible for me to finish tree #7 . Two of my pitchers are out for the season and one of my hitters, who is not paired with one of the two previous pitchers, is out for the season. Blegh.

It is POSSIBLE on tree #8 , but only one pairing still has two active players. Rough branch.

As this contest winds down without an apparent winner, I just wanted to extend a big thanks to those who entered and stuck with it.

Stay tuned for a possible playoffs contest open to all.

This has been a ton of fun Chris! I still have a possibility today (I need Taijuan Walker to have 8Ks+ and Edwin Encarscion to smack a homerun). Thanks so very much for the ongoing generosity and the super unique and fun contests!!!

This contest is now over.

If anyone managed to chop their tree down without saying anything to this point, I'll give you until Wednesday October 5th to confirm.

Thanks to all.
