It would have been terrifying if 876 and 3339 were on the same alliance and that almost happened!
Oh, I definitely agree! After watching, I can't say I was thrilled to watch my first 100% upset bracket. It's cool to see an underdog or two in competition, but my main point was that at this magnitude, all the upsets were maybe the deal-breaker for me. Took Stronghold from "a really good game" to a "really good game to an extent" in my mind. Maybe that makes me a poor sport? Maybe not.
