Round 1A


BYE

[11] Parliament (of Owls, Rooks)

Match 1:

[2] Mischief (of Mice)
[2] Colony (of Ants, Bats, Beavers, Ibises, Squirrels, Weasels)

Match 2:

[4] Blush (of Boys)
[2] Dissimulation (of Birds)

Match 3:

[2] Fesnyng (of Ferrets)
[4] Draught (of Butlers, Salmon)

Match 4:

[5] Shrewdness (of Apes)
[2] Mob (of Deer, Emus, Kangaroos, Scummers, Sheep, Whales)

Match 5:

[2] Richesse / Richness (of Martens)
[3] Queue (of Moderators, Waiting Humans)

Match 6:

[3] Congress (of Baboons)
[2] Senate (of Griffins)

Match 7:

[2] Bed (of Eels, Snakes)
[6] Cackle (of Hyenas)

* The correct term for a group of Baboons is "Troop". Three of you were apparently taken in by a chain e-mail. However, I didn't do my checks for this until after the bracket was done, the RNG has a sense of humour about Match 6 anyway, and the source for Senate of Griffins is pretty sketchy as well, so...
