Tournament X Qualifiers - Day 7

We're ready to go on another day of qualifying fun. First up...

Capital City Sharpshooters veteran Lorde plays 8-ball with the blue cue. Lorde scratched on the break and needed time to get going before closing in 21 shots with just the one error. Viewpoint Sound Meteors star Frosty goes second, using the purple cue in 8-ball. Frosty wasn't very good in her early form, but she was able to avoid errors in her 24 shots. Diamond Gems rookie Autumn steps in for 10-ball with the purple cue. Autumn found her groove at the end of this game, taking two errors early before ending on 17 shots. More 10-ball is on the way with Freedom Cascades captain Stinky using the blue cue. Stinky didn't have the best command, but he avoided errors in 18 shots. Midland Predators captain Shawn will also do 10-ball with the blue cue to end the first group. Shawn was in control until mid-game, when a couple errors pushed him to 15 shots.

Capital City Sharpshooters captain Chris goes after the break, shooting 9-ball with the purple cue. Chris was too cautious at the end of his game, needing 15 shots with no errors to finish. Southridge Defenders newcomer Lize keeps the purple cue up for 8-ball. Lize knocked the rack down in only 17 shots without an error. Another Defender, the veteran Wario, plays 9-ball with the green cue. Somewhat unintentionally, Wario put up three errors in 13 shots for a solid but reckless outing. His brother, the Web City Spiders' Waluigi, is next up with the silver cue in 9-ball. Waluigi was convincing with his play, ending on a tough 4-9 combination to the top left for 4 shots and no errors. The 10th player called today is Swordpoint Blades veteran Bandit, who is up for 8-ball with the blue cue. Bandit did a good job of limiting his mistakes, needing just 20 shots and no errors to close the effort.

Pacific Volcanoes veteran Leonette kicks off the third group with the blue cue in hand for 9-ball. Leonette chased the 2 for most of her game, but a 2-9 combination to the top right put her at 7 shots and no errors. The Defenders' Lize gets a second game today, bringing on the red cue for 9-ball. Lize wasn't as sharp this time, leading off with a scratch, but she got it done in 13 shots. More 9-ball awaits for Capital City Sharpshooters veteran Sprinkles, who will use the purple cue. Sprinkles showed little mercy with a pair on the break and only one miss in 8 shots after that, taking no errors in an excellent game. The 14th player drawn today is Oceanside Waves captain Snuggle, who is ready for 9-ball with the silver cue. Snuggle was also sharp with a pair on the break, and he took an error but still finished in 10 shots. It's 10-ball time for Harrison Specters veteran Blizzard, who has the green cue in hand. Blizzard held her own with 18 shots and two errors in a middling performance.

The fourth batch gets going with Everton Eagles captain Goldy playing 9-ball with the blue cue. Goldy had a good start, then chased the 2 before taking her lone error. On the 3, she deflected to sink the 9 to the top right for 8 shots in the game. Diamond Gems veteran Leonardo will breach 13-ball, playing with the red cue for the first game in the event. Leonardo's chance at a great game died early with his major foul of sinking the 8 early. He ended up at 27 shots and seven errors charged. Golden Pilots star Dusty is ready to play 12-ball with the red cue. Dusty did okay in this outing, with 22 shots and one error added to her tally. Southern Monarchs rookie Molly is the 19th to play today, using the blue cue in 9-ball. Molly was undeniably bad in this outing, with 20 shots and three errors needed to clear the table. Back in 13-ball, the Commerce Tradewinds' Rosemary keeps with the highest pace by using the green cue. Rosemary posted 21 shots in the appearance, taking just one error for illegal contact near the end.

Group five leads off with Lighton Prestige captain Acorn's season debut with the blue cue in 7-ball. Acorn produced quite well with 8 shots and no errors. The Cascades' captain Stinky gets a second game today, doing 12-ball with the purple cue. Stinky looked very in control of his game, needing only 20 shots without an error to finish. Pearl Surfers co-captain Neopolitan will make her season debut in 7-ball with the blue cue. Neopolitan couldn't get positioning to go her way, ending at 13 shots with three errors in the game. Captains continue to draw in as Modernistic Union chief Ms. Puppy plays 8-ball with the silver cue. Ms. Puppy was solid with 21 shots and no errors during her second appearance of the year. Lighton Prestige veteran Citrus ends the group with the green cue in 8-ball. Citrus brought fire on her shots, taking just 17 without an error to finish the game quickly.

The sixth group begins with Twinkie I of the Pacific Volcanoes doing 9-ball with the purple cue. Twinkie I had three balls on the break to help her cause, but she was good enough to end in 12 shots with only one error. Royal Crowns newcomer Katelynn gets the 27th game today, using the blue cue in 9-ball. Katelynn was left with mostly long shots, but her short game was also poor. She needed 16 shots and an error to finish. Southern Monarchs veteran Mams is ready to play 7-ball with the silver cue in her season debut. Mams was solid after a slow start, ending with 11 shots and no errors. Whitewater Shores veteran Twinkie III is next, playing 10-ball with the purple cue. Twinkie III played pretty well, but two errors pushed her to 15 shots for the game. Another Shore, the captain Shaggy, is on for 12-ball with the silver cue. Shaggy couldn't convert after meticulous set-up play, taking three errors and 27 shots to finish the game.

Batch seven opens as new Royal Crowns captain Kayla debuts with the green cue in 7-ball. Kayla went empty on the break but dominated after with just 7 shots and no errors in the game. Infinity Torpedoes captain Smudge gets the next game, shooting 9-ball with the red cue. Smudge botched multiple plays with the 9 right next to the top left, but she took no errors and finished in 7 shots. More 9-ball follows as Swordpoint Blades veteran Stealth appears with the blue cue. Stealth started slow and recovered in time to finish at 16 shots and two errors. The Prestige's Citrus will have a second game today, using the silver cue in 9-ball. Citrus stayed free of errors, but she was slow to attack and needed 17 shots to finish. Terrace City Knights veteran Oreo goes 35th today, playing 7-ball with the silver cue. Oreo couldn't get back up to the standard, needing 12 shots with two errors to finish the effort after a missed contact scratch.

Archtown Arrows captain Sally starts this group with 10-ball and the green cue. Sally couldn't get anything to fall early, taking two errors and ending at 23 shots in a poor outing. The 37th game today is Lighton Prestige veteran Shiny's season debut with the purple cue in 7-ball. Shiny had a scratch on the break and couldn't go at a fast pace, ending with 11 shots and just the one error. After that, Predators captain Shawn returns for 12-ball with the blue cue in his second game today. Shawn showed a fair amount of caution, and even with two errors he had 20 shots at the end. Southridge Defenders captain Stephanie is next, playing 9-ball with the red cue. Stephanie stayed poised during a rough start, surging late for 12 shots and no errors. Wrapping up the bunch, Southern Monarchs captain Panda plays 9-ball with the purple cue. Panda did reasonably well, but some late misses and an error set him back to 14 shots for the game.

Group nine is fronted by Vladimir of the Maplewood Lumberjacks, who will shoot 8-ball with the blue cue. Vladimir didn't finish his runs well and he took an error in 26 shots for a poor outing. Atlantic Pirates captain Delila is up for 8-ball with the purple cue. Delila also struggled with two errors and 27 shots in this second appearance of the year. The purple cue stays on for Stonebridge Wolves rookie Jane's debut in 7-ball. Jane had a good start, a slight struggle, and then some lucky bounces to end in 11 shots with no errors. Southridge Defenders newcomer Luigi goes 44th today, playing 8-ball with the blue cue. Luigi showed control initially, and had a little flair in the middle before cautiously finishing at 20 shots with one error. Commerce Tradewinds hotshot Solaris makes his season debut in 7-ball with the purple cue. Solaris had an early error for missed contact, but he surged to 8 shots in a strong finish.

Westside Rockers enforcer Midnight uses the red cue in 8-ball to head the final group. Midnight didn't miss much in a great effort which saw her finish at 18 shots and no errors. Royal Crowns rookie Sunshine is next up with the purple cue in hand for 9-ball. Sunshine didn't let a scratch on the break hold him back, as he finished with 11 shots and the one error. Back in 8-ball, Central Warriors veteran Noelle uses the green cue. Noelle took no errors in her game, but she put the 8 dangerously close to the bottom left, hindering her choices. She ended with 23 shots in the game. Wolves rookie Jane is back for 8-ball with the silver cue in her second appearance today. Jane had all the control early in the game, but a late fade and one error pushed her to 22 shots. Today's last appearance is for the Everton Eagles' Puff III, who does 8-ball with the blue cue. Puff III closed the day well with 18 shots and no errors in a dominant effort.

We'll do one more day this week, which will be tomorrow. Friday is a scheduled off-day.
