Welcome to Round 3 of Season 1 of the

MINNOWS FEEDING FRENZY!!

^{(“Minnows Feeding Frenzy” is a chance-based survival contest, where game outcomes are decided by two factors: a random name picker and a die. No direct action is required on behalf of the players for the duration of the entire season. New rounds are published on a daily basis. The complete set of rules and explanation of the game mechanics can be found in the Season Registration post.)}

We are about to begin face-offs in Round 3. First the pairs will be formed, using a random name picker. The pairs will be posted in the comments below. When two minnows with non-equal weights meet in a face-off, the larger one automatically wins, and proceeds to the next round, having grown by the loser’s weight. If two minnows have the exactly same weight, then I will roll a die for each pair of players to decide the face-off’s outcome in each pair. The comments will be updated, one by one, after every dice roll. Once all face-offs are completed, this post will be updated with the list of minnows perished in Round 3 and those who proceeded further to the next round, along with their updated weights.

This is a link to the previous round

For the sake of transparency anyone can freely view (but not edit, obviously) the spreadsheet where I keep the records of players, individual face-offs in each round, dice roll results, players’ weights, and the outcomes of every round.
13 Minnows have survived Round 2. They will now face each other in the comments below.

Let the Feeding Frenzy begin!!

A few words regarding upvotes of this post. Right now the Prize Pool for the Season 1 is slightly over 5 SBD (50% of the estimated SBD payout for the Season Registration Post). Potential earnings from each round’s post are adding to the Prize Pool (50% of every round’s post’s SBD payout). The more upvotes each round receives, the greater will the total prize pool become. It is not mandatory to upvote, but it will increase the payout to minnows with three largest weights achieved by the end of the season. It is therefore in the self-interest of all the minnows remaining in the game to upvote and promote the Season’s posts.

And please remember: all the outcomes are decided purely by chance. So no hard feelings if you get eliminated, okay? ;)
