Krawk Island are marginally out in front, with their clean sweep over Meridell. The KI team's lead is solely reliant on their Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise wins, so it won't take much for the Roos to take over the top place. Count Von Roo was invited to watch a match by an unknown player, said to be dressed in a pirate outfit, but even the presence of the Count couldn't affect Roo Island's great form, as they also had a clean sweep against Brightvale. Only time, and the slinging of more slushies will tell which team is the greater of the two.The Haunted Woods had what can only be described as an easy match yesterday, as they beat the home team in all three games. Altador's goalkeeper, Salayne Ritad, was later blamed for not paying enough attention when the Yooyu was heading his way. Ritad replied that it was unfair that he was getting the blame, but he had a secret plan for their match against Shenkuu.
Mystery Island faced the underwater might of Maraqua, and came through to win the Yooyuball match. The Slushie Slinger and Make Some Noise games were a little more difficult, as the Maraquans insisted on playing underwater, but MI showed their ability in keeping their opponents to a draw in both games.Kreludor still have their eyes on finishing in the top four teams, and made another step towards it with an almost clean sweep against Tyrannia. The Tyrannians managed to notch up their 10th win in Slushie Slinger, and are hopeful that they can transfer those winning skills to the Yooyuball matches as well. Kreludor are almost equal in score to Mystery Island, but which of the teams has the stamina to hold that fourth place spot for the next set of the round robin games?
Last year's winners Darigan Citadel, faced the best of the Desert, and couldn't quite break through to win. The Citadel team blamed their Yooyuball draw on the Lost Desert's left defender, claiming that the Draik was blocking them from getting anywhere near the LD goal. The Lost Desert team were used to such a hot day, and were ready for the hoards of thirsty fans that needed serving with slushies. Not one thirsty fan remained, earning the LD team their 8th win. The dry heat did affect their cheering volume though, with a tie for Make Some Noise, and both teams wishing they had brought something with them to soothe their throats.Faerieland's bad luck continued with a three game loss against Shenkuu. It is hoped that Faerieland will win at least one game by the end of the Cup, otherwise Jhudora will be ashamed to show her face. Shenkuu on the other hand, are recovering last year's form, sitting just above the Citadel in the table.
Virtupets have finally realised that they don't need the great Dr Frank Sloth behind them in order to win a Yooyuball match, as they displayed their skills against Terror Mountain. They couldn't hold the cold TM team back for long though, as the Slushie Slinger match resulted in a draw. Terror Mountain have been practising their cheering, earning them their 2nd Make Some Noise win, and Virtupets' 11th defeat. The Virtupets team was last seen heading back to the space station for "cheering practise", as team captain Keetra Deile stated she couldn't face seeing her team lose their 12th Make Some Noise game.So, the (new improved) placings table reads as follows:
