Yeah, let us know what you decide Blitz. I don't want to just abandon you, but we do not have a team right now.

thanks guys, but unfortunately you all are way past the deadline, I wish you would of told me in advance and posted after your last games ended (we may have been able to come up with something), but in the rules on page 1, all were aware and its unfortunate but your team has been forfeited, seems like seul and you all know this, i feel bad too, but personal life has to be 1st over cc, so I dont blame anyone and hope jimbo is ok and returns soon, thx guys. I invite you all in the next one I make, ok, peace. respects, blitz

maybe you misunderstood us blitz, you don´t need to push us out of this tourney, we already know that we are out. That´s why i suggested prank and his team plays instead of us.
And i posted asap when i was sure jim wouldn´t react or join. Sorry for delaying your tournament, but i didn´t find a way to contact jim, so i joined the games first and hoped he would do the same. But know we now he won´t play, so now we inform you. No need to blame us for anything, we know we can´t play this tourney now, i just tried to help to find the best way to deal with this problem. Thought it might be a good idea to let others (our opponents from round 1) play, but you didn´t say anything about that suggestion. Do what you like best.

Uh, actually, I got your PM yesterday (Saturday) at 6:20 pm CDT. It is now 4:55 pm CDT on the next day(Sunday), so technically we still have Over an hour to be in on time? We were not trying to be bad sports or anything and we did in fact let you know Last night which was way in advance. I don't understand your response I guess??? Probably a bad idea to start tourney games on a saturday night anyway since so many people are away on weekends and may have game sitters that don't read PM's... Just my 2 cent.

good point and it also says 48 hours to join on the front post

[Army of Achilles]

not my tournament but it seems a sub of equal or lower rank would be fair. 3/4 of the winning team is still intact and it's not like you guys are trying to gain an advantage here

I could be somewhat partial though as it might be to my teams advantage to get to face Blitz's team in the finals if we are looking enough to survive this round.

Gameplay:

-8 Teams/ 32 players
-Teams will be seeded by rank.
-Single elimination.
-Each team has 48 hrs to join their games after I've pm'ed with game numbers or else those games will be forfeited.

sometimes you say 24 hours, sometimes 48 .... we don´t try to cheat anything, we just try to inform you that we are out because we don´t have a team of 4 players any more. Sorry for making any suggestions .... forget what i said, just push us out.

i guess you all have to forfeit, it is past the deadline and no one told me in advance this would occur

We never asked for anything, call it as you like, sorry if we did anything wrong and sorry for causing trouble. To be honest, i expected another reaction, but ok, we aren´t able to play semi finals, so perhaps we deserve this reply.

I am not blaming you or your team, i thought it was 24 hours too but does say 48, sorry bout that, my apologies, it was meant to be 24, but does say 48 hours and i sent the pm out around 2:20pm eastern time which means if you got 48 hours, then i will allow you to 2:20 pm eastern time monday which means you have about 19 hours for a replacement with same amount of points, fair? and i cannot let the other team you beat join, they lost, its single elimination m8, just would not be right, i appreciate your aid in this, can you get a replacement in next 19 hours with about same score? this is fair i think to do?

Do what you like best.

I am not pushing you out, you told me in a PM you were out and could not find a replacement and dropped all the games, that's why I posted this seul. I didnt know why and dont need all the details, jim is a friend of mine who i respect, if he cant play and life busy, i accept that, its unfortunate, but i have to accept it. your suggestion of letting a team you beat, play instead is not fair, they lost.

i never even tried to ask for a replacement for our team (please quote me if i´m wrong about this). You didn´t give a rule for that problem, so I suggested to let the other team play because i thought it would make 11 people happy .... my 3 team mates, because they don´t need to feel bad because there will be only one semi final match now. Your (Blitz´s) team, because you still get a good challenge in semi final, being in final after one match feels strange. And the team i mentioned, because they get a second chance after they lost unluckily.

You decided that there is no team replacement, ok, no problem for me, i understand your reasons.

Your message sounded like you tried to kick us out of the tournament although there was still time for jim to join. And you asked for getting a message earlier although i told you that i posted and pm´d as soon as possible after i believed jim wouldn´t join (in fact i still wasn´t able to talk with him, but i thought it´s better for all players in this tournament if we drop out and give a free spot for a team which is ready to play) I just try to suggest a good solution for this problem, but you make the rules and i understand what you say, no problem.

ty seul, but i did give you 19 more hours to find a replacement with equal points to still join and now it is going on about 50 hours, so, i have no choice but to forfeit you, sounds like you had a set team and wanted to remain with that, that is fine, but I did give you team a chance to get a replacement in the above post, and you choose not to and instead wanted a team you beat to go forward? i cant allow that m8, they lost and it is single elimination sir. all in here would get angry with me if i allowed that, the solution was as army of achilles suggested, find a replacement and i did give you almost 20 more hours to do so, and now that time has expired. It is no big deal, I am not mad at no one, its just unfortunate. I will make more in the future and invite you all, peace.

did you talk about replacements?

let´s check the post you mention:

I am not pushing you out, you told me in a PM you were out and could not find a replacement and dropped all the games, that's why I posted this seul. I didnt know why and dont need all the details, jim is a friend of mine who i respect, if he cant play and life busy, i accept that, its unfortunate, but i have to accept it. your suggestion of letting a team you beat, play instead is not fair, they lost.

i don´t see it

It´s now the first time you mention that replacements are allowed, you never talked about that before.

so, i have no choice but to forfeit you,

We already told you days ago that we are out, so it doesn´t make sense to tell us now that you have to forfeit us.We informed you about the fact we don´t have a team any more and can´t play.

sounds like you had a set team and wanted to remain with that, that is fine, but I did give you team a chance to get a replacement in the above post,

i still don´t see it

and you choose not to and instead wanted a team you beat to go forward? i cant allow that m8, they lost and it is single elimination sir. all in here would get angry with me if i allowed that,

was just an idea , but i understand that youdon´t like it, you are correct,your way is more fair

the solution was as army of achilles suggested, find a replacement and i did give you almost 20 more hours to do so, and now that time has expired. It is no big deal, I am not mad at no one, its just unfortunate. I will make more in the future and invite you all, peace.

same here, we are just suprised about your replies, i always get the impression that we don´t really understand what the other one is saying, but perhaps it´s due to my bad english, sorry. We didn´t try to cheat our way to the next round, and we wish good luck to all the remaining teams.

thanks for running the tournament, 1st round was really interesting.

right here in blue SEUL, I posted that sunday (look at the date 11-09-08) and gave you about 20 hours til MONDAY on (11-10-08)extra to do it, and I said I forfeited you at first because YOU seul told me to forfeit you in A PM, then I posted back after what achilles said cause he made me think, and gave you about 20 MORE hours there afterwards to find a replcement, but you DID NOT, but you wanted to get a team you beat to play and i said NO because it is single elimination, now it is like 4 days later, so drop it. move on M8 we tried to resolve, we didn't, no big deal. I am not mad at you, but getting mad soon if this crap keeps up.
