Time for me to get back in the mix here.
The ladder has me posted as 16th so I would like to challenge Torres posted as 11th.
I will send my invites next year (er...tomorrow) if everything is OK.
I hope everyone has a great 2017!!!

I accept but would like to start tomorrow night/Saturday if that is ok. Please send me the game pass in case I can't accept before the invite expires. I'll create/post my game shortly.

It's a big match.

This will be my 4th attempt to defend the #1 position from unique challenger.

Also, it will be for my Bronze Win Streak Medal.

And more importantly a chance to stop your impressive winning streak ;-)

I will wall you with pw


Games accepted

My game is Game 17101421. Invite sent - good luck.

I am proud winner of the match of the year and this is my first time to be on top.

Congrats to grt for being outstanding opponent in 3 matches. =D>

This is my 21st win in a row, and I think you have mistakenly put my score 25-3 while it should be 26-3 (now 27-3 after the win vs grt).
You can check that I had 13-3 score and 7 wins in a row on the time when Ladder 4.0 ended so now when winning streak increased to 21 my new score should be 27-3 accordingly.

MGSteve called DIBS so therefore I went ahead and created 2 games, sent to him. Waiting for his home game.

I'm the one making the challenge, josko. So I need to make 2 games (Game 17130679 and Game 17130682) and you need to make 1. Shall we take 1 of the 2 you made or play them for fun (yours) and education (mine)? I'm good either way.

In my opinion who makes the random game challenge when it is known that you and me are playing is irrelevant. since it was known that you were my opponent, I thought it will simplify the whole process if I make random game (and my home game) and send to you.

I am ok that the games stand as they are, no point to redo games because of technicality who sent games.

If you agree, please send me your home game.

If you want official clarification then we may wait for the final word by celliottii.

EDIT:

I accepted your home game Game 17130679. However, I did not accept random game Game 17130682 because the random game sent by me may be counted as legal. If celliottii rules that random game sent by me Game 17130497 should officially be counted then we take this otherwise if the random game HAVE TO be sent by you then we don't count Game 17130497 and I join your random game Game 17130682

While I agree with josko.ri that whoever makes the Random game is technically irrelevant, I am going to rule with Steve on this. The rules clearly state that the challenger must create the Random game.

Two examples of how this would cause controversy:

1. If we allowed anyone to create the Random game, we could wind up with four games and then a huge fight about which one of the Random games is legit.

2. If the challenged player created the Random game and the challenger lost it, they could claim the game shouldn't count since it was not created by them.

Josko.ri needs to drop the Random game he created and Steve needs to create it.

Congrats on making it to the top of the Ladder! =D> =D> I have the match results recorded and verified your win/loss record and made that correction as well.

MGSteve has DIBS, so I've recorded that challenge as well.

DIBS is open!

Thanks for clarification and sorry for the confusion this situation brought. When I sent him home game it sounded so simple step to me, apologize for making it non-proper way.

Therefore, based on your ruling, I am going to join Game 17130682 created by MGsteve and then Game 17130497 doesn't count and will just be played for fun between MGsteve and me.

I have just ended the 21 game winning streak of josko. It's good to be the king! \:D/ Anybody got dibs?
Actually I won both of my games, josko stomped me in the game that doesn't count and is doing the same in his second game as well.
