Re: Livingston (NJ) Frozen Frenzy - NAQT IS 142 - Feb 7, 201

I really enjoyed the tournament. However, I did notice an error in the stats uploaded to the site. It states that Real Madrid had 5 losses when they only had 4. (The WWPN A v Real Madrid game is recorded wrong, Madrid won rather than WWPN A and the numbers for the bonuses are reversed).
