I'm a bit disappointed the biblical reference didn't make it through.
But I'm sure I'll get over it

Annoyingly, we have 17 through to round 2. Which means there is just one game and 15 byes. Suggest I do this as a flash round and close it in an hour or so.

Yep - for the record, the top seeds after the group stage were:
1. Top Trumps, a card game series
2. "Nellie the Elephant", a children's song written in 1956 by Ralph Butler and Peter Hart about a fictional anthropomorphic elephant of that name
3. HMS Trump (P333), a British submarine, 1944–1969
4. Trump, an act of flatulence

Being as I am mainly in China and about to sleep immediately before returning home at 4am (local) tomorrow I was about to argue against a flash round, but I see I'm already too late.
What happened to round 2?

There's only one game in R2 because of Byes (17 made it out of the group) - so I pult the last seven games of round 3 up. The remaining game will go off when I close R2G1, hopefully in a minute.
