Rathji has 8 remaining and mrk has 15.

Therefore mrk wins Round 9 and the match 5-4

Congrats! That was a really good 2 games with different strategies.

[mrkajz44]

Well played Rathji - that was a tense game again! I'm thinking you bid 0 in round 2 and that really threw me.

[Rathji]

Grats MrKajz!

The key was obviously round 3. I can't wait for the post to find out how high you went.

[mrkajz44]

I'm so curious about that too! Girly post the results!

Again, thanks for the games Rathji. To this point, this death match was probably my most favorite moment. Great game, great opponent, such fun!

Yeah, was good. Probably better for you than me though

[GirlySports]

I spent 6 of the 12 last nights with Rathji in deathmatches. Mrs. Rathji might be worried if we continued

[GirlySports]

So the final is set. We'll take tomorrow off and then I have to do some preparation on Monday to probably start Tuesday.

It will be a best of 5 deathmatches. You will know which ones after the Monday preparations.

Won't say that explaining why I need to go spend a couple hours on Calgary Puck will be something I miss.

HELLO!!!

We will begin Round 14 the FINALS of CP The Genius.

Rathji was eliminated in Round 13 and now there are 2 players remaining (squiggs96, mrkajz44).

This is for $210 donated to your chosen charity.

First we will welcome the 9 players who finished from 3rd to 11th back to the Genius.

They slowly walk in one by one.

*Applause*

*BOOOOOS*

*Applause*

HELLO Eliminated Guests,

Welcome to the Genius Finals.

In the Finals we have prepared 5 games. If one of the finalists wins 3 games first, they will be the Champion.

We will provide the eliminated guests the opportunity to help the player they wish to support in the Finals.

In front of you, you will see 10 game items. These items will be used by the finalists to gain an edge in these games. You will pick out one item, read the label on the bottom (I'll post what it is) and then give it to the person you want to help.

The games will not be announced until the items have been given out. So the clue may no even make sense to you.

I would like to go in order of Elimination if possible but if it takes too long, we may abandon it.

1. Starseed
2. Boo Radley
3. devo22
4. HalifaxDrunk
5. GP_Matt
6. Hockeyguy15
7. GGG
8. bizaro86
9. Rathji

The last advantage remaining will be given to squiggs since he won the semifinal.

The Artist
12 Years A Slave

I do think it is kind of amusing that the 2 people who beat me in death matches are in the finals...

If you were in the finals against me, I was hoping it would come down to a game of truth detector.

[GP_Matt]

I have to go into a meeting soon so here is my list in order of preference. Top is highest.
Argo
No Country For Old Men
Spotlight
Slumdog Millionaire
The Departed
The King's Speech
12 Years A Slave
The Artist
The Hurt Locker
Birdman

I didn't much care for Hurt Locker, Birdman or Squiggs
