I believed that someone among my esteemed co-players who fared better
than I did in the Greek Kotei would have mailed this list by now....but
this is what I remember:

The Final Four Were

1) Crane Honor (Nanos Manos)
2) Lion Military (Apostolis Koutsikos)
3 and 4.....I don't remember who was who...

Scorpion Dishonor (Chris Oldgeorge)
Phoenix FETA-5M (Aggelos Stilos...)
and....??? crappy memory

We had very few players (just 20) as the tournament was during the exam
period in the Greek universities so...MANy people chose not to show
up...there was only 1 player outside Athens as the rest of them
obviously decided that loosing two or three days in the middle of exam
season was too much!! Pity...

The 20 players were:

Two Crane honor Runners :
Three Dragon: Two -Honor runners one Dishonor (yours truly!!)
Two Crab...Military heavy attack decks (those berserkers...aghhh)
Two Lion military one with the old Stronghold (+2 to attack)(brrrrr I
had almost forgotten the power of Gohei)
2 Phoenix
      one Feta (that wend undefeated to the finals put was crushed in
the semi finals)
      one Honor runner with a lot of personality killing
1 Yoritomo Alliance with Fox stronghold
2 Brotherhood of Shinsei (one enlightenment-military the other enlightenment
-dishonor)
1 toturi's Army (CTB)
1 Naga military
1 Shadowlands (that was that guys second day playing L5R and he finished
8th....!! of course it wasn't his deck, but.....Hail Kontogian....!!!)


the other three.....well I'm not sure maybe another Lion and a ninja and
??????


for the history I ended up 2-4 and something like 16th place....my worst
place till now...crap....

1st round managed to lose a sure game as the round before the judge
interrupted us the crane player had less honor...we both had 4 provinces
one ring and he 2 personalities while i had 11
I then lost honor by ambushing one of his personalities. So ended up
below him in honor....
don't ask me Why I didn't attack...( i also had the favor if you need to
know....).: I think I was asleep

2nd  I crushed to -25 honor a lion player...

3rd I lost to the monk dishonor (no holdings for the firs 3 turns -out
of a 17 holding deck...sheesh...)

4th round lost to one of the Dragon honor runners when  I being at -8
refused a duel....he then put out the sword... -21 honor...

5th game I see a completely inexperienced Crab player (Hi Vasilis!!!)
and I'm sure of my victory until I see no holdings for three rounds
again and his Silence +Berserkers taking out my first two provinces till
round three. I managed to bring him to -19 honor but then he took out my
last two provinces

6th game I again wiped the floor with another of the Lion military ....

Overall a nice tournament..... although I was a disgrace for my clan
(snif...) and I believe that if it was a week before we could have had
35 or 40 instead of 20 players....
