"only XL-5"

My team consists of Amster, me, and Bubuch, which I think is a pretty decent lineup compared to other teams.

Do you really want to play 5 rounds against only beginners?
I didn't sign up for this tournament for many reasons, mainly because most of the groups aren't very interesting (and also because of the general template file, of course). I think you're actually quite lucky in that regard.
