eberhardt has disappeared, so his maps went to a teammate

"Also, a new policy on joining games. I will gave players 48 hours from the time games are sent out...failure to join will result in a strikeout (batters) or giving up a single (pitchers). " Does that rule then apply?..it was longer than 48 hours.

Sent out late maps for ongoing Game 2s...will update boxscores over the weekend. Also, looking to get Game 3s starting over the weekend...good luck all. Should be some important games in this next batch.

I hate to lose, but I am glad a no hitter was broken up in the final inning. That would have been embarrassing.

boxscores updated...working on wrapping up Game 2s today and getting out Game 3s

Underneath the current batch of boxscores there are links to tournament stats for each team...this compiles the stats for players throughout each game of the tournament. I update these after each game goes final, so some have two games and some teams are only showing Game 1 at the moment.

Just trying to figure out a way to avoid deadbeats...but this seemed pretty harsh for the two remaining teammates, so I'm trying to figure out a more fair way to resolve those issues.

I just checked and it appears those games have all been joined up...perhaps someone was just away for the weekend. But yes, I'll start enforcing that rule...giving people a couple days to join, sending out one invite reminder and once those invites expire it will go to the forfeit.

Flex, don't sweat it. You run a lot of great tournaments! You have a lot to keep up with. We all accidently forget to join games at times. I do it and I only play 40 games at a time. I'm sure that people who are playing 300 forget a few more. When you get a PM to join a game its harder to get into it, because I found that if I dont right that second I forget to come back later. I tell people 24 hours in my tournaments, but I always send them invites till they get in. People make mistakes, they forget, we are all busy with life. I know I wouldnt want to be hurt in a tournament because I forgot to join a game because I got distracted by life, and therefore I send the same courtesy to people. If someone dead beats out of a game, different story, but someone forgets to join a game, I think you give them the benefit of the doubt! GREAT TOURNEY FLEX!!! WELL DONE!!

Get off his back, Flex is an easy going TO that tries to give people a little leeway. Does it really matter to you if it takes a couple days extra for people to join? Wouldn't you rather win than have someone forfeit to you? He does a great job running a bunch of labor intensive tournaments, and he doesn't need people giving him a hard time.

Haven't had a chance to check in on Little League for the last several days...trying to get my college hoops tourney off the ground...but I'll check in here by Wednesday and see what we have as far as open games...reminders and such.

Thats twice now you've jumped on flex, and twice people have had his back. That should tell you something. Poohcrumbs you should drop out, you don't even deserve to be playing in this tournament!

I second this sentiment.

I don't even need to look at poopcrumb's profile to know he has never run a tournament before and has zero clue how much work is involved for the TO.

Consider that flex is giving up large amounts of his time for no reward, you should think twice before bitching.
