Termination: British Isles [TPA][Win: whakamole][2 TOs]

[Humrlmo]

• I don't have time nor energy to get next round out today (nor time in the upcoming days to make sure that the games start) so I will postpone it for a couple of days and try to find time for it on Friday or Saturday.
• [player]Humrlmo[/player] (division 10) is replacing [player]collywobbles[/player] who just hasn't joined his games.
• I have dealt with the only not started game and hopefully it will get started in the next 24 hours.

amazzony; hats off to you taking on this TPA round! All the requests to join after you stated several times "taking no more sign-ups" would have drove me out of my mind & caused me to pull all my hair out!!!

As for the PM, I joined each game that you had my name listed per the request (4 games total), but I am also in a 5th game Termination: British Isles [TPA] - Round 1. Division 10. Batch 1 Game 8458439. I hope this is correct, with you making that many games I'd hate to be the one that causes you any more grief than what you already have.

Thanks again for taking on this task...you should get 6 mo premium for yourself!

[amazzony]

Humrlmo, thanks I have to admit that I have started using a method I really don't like - just ignoring sign-ups. I've mentioned so many times that we are full and I have a list of players/reserves in first post so there should be enough information showing how full this tournament is. Also, yes, you should be in 5 games right now. Due to a messup and replacing a player in round 1 you have a weird number of games right now but according to my excel, everything should be just fine and back on track now (at least after next batch of games). BTW, I love your "idiots" signature, it put a smile on my face

On another note, I'm having trouble getting last 2 games of batch 2 active because invites keep wearing out on one player who has joined 1 game but seems not to like the other 2 I'll try to get them started soon, with replacement if needed.

Also, it's time for batch 3 soon, I'll try to get it out this Sunday.

Hi I wish to join

[amazzony]

• In division 11, [player]musteriuz[/player] replaces [player]morfam1[/player] since game 5.
• Batch 3 games will be sent out later today.

[amazzony]

Batch 3 was sent out on Sunday and now I have sent out reminders. I'm starting to think that some of you are taking advantage of the fact that I'm sending reminder invites and won't even bother to join the games through the PM I'm sending. If you are doing it then please stop being a jerk It takes you a lot less time to join the games than me to send out invites. 28 games hadn't started from batch 3 and I gave you 3 days to join them.

[Hath]

Almost all of the Batch 1 games have finished (waiting on 4) so look forward to a scoreboard update next Monday! I'm out of town this weekend, sadly, or I would do it sooner!

[amazzony]

• There's currently 1 active game from batch 1, 36 games in batch 2 and 71 from batch 3 (overall 108 active games)
• I have just finished sending out messages with batch 4 (last of this round) games.
• Now I'm going to wait until all the games begin, then I'll pull back until all games are done. Then it's Hath time to shine and post results of round 1. If we have those then I'll be back in the picture to deal with tiebreakers (if needed) and we will move on to second round with top 36 players.

[Hath]

Results of Round 1, Batch 1 (sans Game 8458439 from division 10) have been posted in the second post in the thread! Check them out to see where you're at!

Game 8601540 we're still missing someone.

[danfrank]

i have around six kills ... my score says 0

[amazzony]

26 games needed invites, I've sent them out now and hopefully all games will begin today/tomorrow. It has become a habit to some people not to bother to join the games before I send the invites so for next round I will set a new rule where I will start giving minus points for every invite I have to send. I'm still thinking how harsh I will be but I will surely post it before Round 1 finishes.

This is probably your kills come from batches 2 or 3. Like Hath mentions, scoreboard is updated only with batch 1 games.

Steel runs the board...woot!

As a frequent organizer this really grinds my gears!

[mviola]

I won 3 straight for 15 kills. Is that a record?

[Humrlmo]

Group 10 batch 1 I did have 1 kill & batch 2 10 kills. Standings out for batch 1 shows I have 0.

[amazzony]

I'm sure all complaints will be looked over by Hath when he has time for it.

There are currenly active games in:

• Batch 2 - 2
• Batch 3 - 26
• Batch 4 - 60 games

Hi there,

Where can I have an update on the scores?

Cheers,

Tom

[Aesop Jones]

On the one hand, the lack of updates means you don't know who you're hunting and competing against in the grand scheme. On the other, it means you have to treat EVERYONE as a threat.

[amazzony]

Updating this tournament is a real drag so don't be too harsh on Hath as it's a very time consuming job for such a huge tournament. At least everybody is on the same ground so it's fair to everybody

[Hath]

Scores have been updated through batch 2 for all divisions. Batch 3 is almost complete (4 remaining games) with 29 games active in the last batch.

Group 10 batch 1 I did have 1 kill & batch 2 10 kills. Standings out for batch 1 shows I have 0.

Let me look into this, I'll edit this post if I find anything...

*EDIT* Your one kill was from the one game in batch 1 I hadn't taken the scores from (because it wasn't completed yet).

On the one hand, the lack of updates means you don't know who you're hunting and competing against in the grand scheme. On the other, it means you have to treat EVERYONE as a threat.

I like to wait until as many games in the whole batch are done as possible, it makes it MUCH less of a pain to keep track of which games I've updated for which divisions and which batches, etc.

So while your division might have finished a batch, there might be other divisions still playing the batch out. The last game in batch 2 finished, I believe, yesterday. So I'm not too terribly behind on the updates, in my opinion.

Actually, 4 games left in batch 3 isn't too bad, I can keep track of that. I'll update the vast majority of batch 3 games today as well (don't say I don't aim to please ).

Let me know if you see any score discrepancies. I'm more than willing to double check my work and (if necessary) admit I'm wrong.
