is that possible if our honorable opponents agree to replay those games? they didn't drop or not joined the games on purpose.

Lx, I suggest change deadline for joining from 2 days to 3 days. I think that would lower forfeits.

I already answered the PM by your team. Sorry, I have draw the line somewhere.

I know they didn't not join on purpose, however, they should join on purpose. ;)

Josko, I prolonged the time to 3 days in the previous edition, and sent invites as a reminder. There were still people who didn't join in time.

Most people have to log in at least once every 24 hours, so 48 hours is already much more time then needed to join a game.

I just want to say thank you to Lindax for running and organizing this. In regards to the forfeits, as long as you make it a team effort to make sure all games are joined, there should never be forfeits. If everyone on the team takes the responsibility to make sure all games are filled and keeps an eye on their games, there should never be a problem. Also, everyone's account should be accessible by at least one of their teammates to prevent these mistakes.

Yeah, I'm with Benzorrr here. Well done mate on even attempting to run this again. I sort of get the feeling this one will be the last one.

Lindax, I didn't see this addressed... are games that are being won by default (opponent failed to join) going to be included in MVP calculations?

Good question. I never thought we'd get so many forfeited games....

So far I have used the Tournament Stats script to get the winning percentage, so then they wouldn't show up. So, I guess they don't count as wins. However, if needed I will count them towards the amount games played for the players that did join them, if that would come into play.

You are inviting your mates to join, how is this fair to other teams?

My team mate wasn't online, so I PM'd our Team Captain. He has his password and was going to join the games before time would run out. I sent the invites to make it easier for him, so he wouldn't need to figure out what games to join.

Although I don't agree, I can see how this can be seen as unfair, and I will refrain from doing so in the future. Next time I'll ask his partners in the specific games to do it, as every player can do.

I don't think players can invite teammates to tournament games, but I could be wrong about that. (I don't really care that you invited your teammates; I just want to clarify that part.)

Come to think of it, you're probably right. In which case I can definitely see how it can be seen as unfair.

This time 2 players from Team Sweden did not join their games, resulting in 16 points for their opponents, team Harem Kings.

This is the second time Team Sweden loses a round because of forfeited games. They have received a formal warning.

The only reason that this would indeed be the last one would the fact that I have to keep forfeiting games, because of players not joining.
