Why do people post in doubles tournament threads asking you to find them a partner? I'm running a tournament, not a dating site! I don't want you blaming me when you don't like your partner, it's none of my damned buisness. You want to join, you have your partner ready when you sign up.

Some T.O.s don't mind signing up singles and matching them later. Lol, if that's the most annoying thing people do to your tournaments, you're not doing bad...

That and dropping out because they don't like their tournament, or when the numbers don't line up, so I have to change something.

I know what you mean. I dislike it when players deadbeat, miss their games, don't show up, etc. I've never ran a doubles tournament before, but I feel your pain

Maybe the next Doubles Tournament you run should have a Dating Theme, where you hook people up on Blind Dates?! Sounds hot.

The most annoying thing is actually after they sign up and you send the games--they dont read the instructions and instead of joining one game they join 7 or 29 games which I have had happen--lol

You can send your singles to my doubles tournaments for future reference. I don't mind playing match maker.

you may need to use my rule.

"sign up with your teammates, I'm not hooking team members up"

Also, get off my lawn.

No that is me sending a list with exact instructions to find your name and auto join your one game--nothing more 64 games and you have one but somehow you decide to just keep clicking auto join until you figure out you really are a true dumb ass for not paying attention to the instructions

OOoooooh, I've ad that happen. I was thinking your 200th

I actually sent out one tourneys games and the guy joined almost every game and was just supposed to join 1 if I remember correctly--we joke about it still today--one of my first tourneys I ever ran too

When freemium members join my speed tournaments. That's always a bummer, having to brighten their day that they can't join because of their status. lol

I dislike the people that sign up twice and I don't notice until I'm about to start creating games and then have to go find a replacement.

How hard is it to know which threads you have posted in?

When you run a theme tournament or something where you have to specify a team to join and all the person says is "in". Means they probably didn't even bother to read the rules.

oh yeah... that's happened to me before.
Also I dislike it when my tournament is ready to start but the mods won't give me privileges because of the unique tournament structure.
(and tourney mods if you're reading this yes I did fix it)
