well played my friend
Got the match recorded for you...
ganguscalm wrote:ok , just re-read the rules , now I have to wait to challenge an open rung and am not eligible for bids ... correct ?
No...You can now challenge MGSteve (#6) or ElricTheGreat (#5)...you just won your challenge against dhallmeyer, so you are free to challenge whoever you want.
That's right...it's that time of the year when I take your Ladder and shake it up.
I am not going to give away everything right now, but shortly, you will all receive a PM from me asking if you wish to be included in the reset or not. If you do, then you'll go into the mixer...if not, you will automatically be placed at the bottom of the Ladder (no exceptions).
Here is what I will tell you now about Ladder Reset II...
The Ladder will reset sometime between June 1 and July 1. There will be no warning. I will freeze the Ladder and no new challenges will be accepted.
Ladder Reset II will not be the same format as last year...This reset will take some time to complete, but in the end the new Ladder will have everyone placed based on performance.
The NEW Ladder will have some changes to it...things we feel will be for the better. I will cover the new changes while Ladder Reset II is taking place...I don't want any confusion right now.
So.......If you still have eyes on making #1 in this Ladder, I recommend you make those challenges soon.

As said via PM I'll be starting from the bottom of the Ladder after the reset - can I be at the very bottom too please? I'd personally like to see each match be five games rather than three to decrease the luck factor, but I guess that won't be popular. Or at least challenges for the top five positions perhaps.

yep...Gonna put you at the very bottom...that way you'll need espresso shots to get the energy to climb all the way back up...
and stop looking over my shoulder at my notes...I said I would tell you guys more about the new Ladder later...geesh!

I prefer mocha but whatever form of caffeine is needed it will be consumed, if it hasn't been already.
