[Official] Very Modern Pentathlon [Day 7]

[patrickaa317]

No offense, but I just got like a dozen games all @ once and my overall game count was 5-6. So I went from 5-6 games to like, 18. I don't even understand half of the game labels being used so makes it hard to double check things. I have no idea how many I'm even supposed to be in each day. I asked you via ur wall and u gave me game totals for the entire day for all teams, not how many games **I** was to be expecting. I'm basically accepting all invites and playing the games that are sent and waiting to the end to find out how we did cuz I don't even really have the time to figure out the scoring method.

It's been fun but hard to follow. At least with as much time as I can set aside specifically for this.

You are on team Serbia (SRB) so all your games should include SRB in the label, if they don't it may be an error. At least that's how I know whether I should join or not (if I even remember/bother to verify).

All Day 3 invites have been sent out - barring a few screwups where I invited the wrong people.

I'm going to have to ask you guys to meet me halfway here - when I invite you to games, PLEASE read the game label and be absolutely, 150% sure you're supposed to be in that game BEFORE you join it.
I've had to drop and recreate two games already because players joined games they were invited to by mistake, even though I posted on their walls asking them to drop the game.

Thank you again.

You have nothing to worry about - you've joined all the games you should, and no others. I'll PM you in a bit to give more detail.
There is a "Game Label Key" here, which should give a little more clarity on what the abbreviations mean. (Fun fact: the limit on CC game labels is 50 characters)
Anyone who is unsure what games they should be joining, PLEASE contact me - I will gladly tell you.

I can step in as a reserve if you still need one, since you posted in the Play Now thread.

[sempaispellcheck]

You are on team Serbia (SRB) so all your games should include SRB in the label

That's correct, but there is one exception: Shooting games do not have country abbreviations in their game labels because there are players from 6 different countries in each game, and not enough space in the game label for all of them.

I need 3 at this moment, and possibly 4, so you're in. Thank you!

The Round of 32 in the Fencing competition has just finished, and it was upset city, with the 5 highest-ranked fencers in the competition all crashing out of the bracket in the first round and the top two seeds - Honduras and Ukraine - both undefeated through 2 group stages (8 games) swept out of the competition 2-0!
Here's to the underdog in this round, and we eagerly wait to see if more of the same awaits us in Round 2.

Day 3 action in the Shooting and Show Jumping competitions has also concluded, and those results are being tabulated while we await the results of 9 ongoing cross-country relays and 7 active doubles games in the Synchronized Swimming competition.

As soon as all active games/relays finish and I can tabulate the results.

I'm predicting that Nepal takes over the top spot, at least for the day

No. Nepal was eliminated from the shooting competition at the end of Day 2.
