Violet's Das Schloss Trips Tourney Finals

[NoSurvivors]

Vio-- there is a new(ish) rule on not having a tourney run more than a year. Like the rule about not filling for more than (either one or three, I can't remember) months.

Goran-- stop being a prick. You got your invites resent and have your games.. Yet you still continue to be a dick in the thread? If the mods have a problem with it they'll tell the TO. They have TD's for a reason, you don't have to do their job for them bubb. dunno who's pissin in your e-cheerios.. But they seem to be doing a hell of a job every morning..

I just find it strange to be in a tourney and I have been playing my 9 games for quite some time and another group had not even started theirs. Seems like every group getting 3 games at the same time to start the tourney would have gotten everyone involved at the same time. Then maybe every 2 weeks send out the next 3 games for everyone, and then 2 weeks later send out the last 3 games for everyone. Then the whole tourney would have been active and moving forward within a month. All results would have come in about the same time. This would have saved about 4 months time in the preliminaries round.

And maybe it's a guy thing, but we like to see standings of how the teams are progressing. Team 1 = 3-1, Team 2 = 2-5, etc.

[GoranZ]

You then only for some reason made and sent invites for 2 games against Hook2's team.

I'm not sure what you are talking about here, because I made three games. One was deleted due to Goranz not accepting his invite.

Are you sure? For your information I was in the game until it was deleted. So you missed to invite someone else, not me And before You accuse someone you should at least double check so you wont accuse wrong.

That is strange because I just re-sent you the invite last night. Everyone was in the game except you. And I already stated that this was a courtesy, as I normally do not re-invite. I will let the games delete. Also, Mviola stated that I only made and sent invites for two games. I made and sent invites for all three games.

The game that I was re invited into was Game 11724875... I don't see Hook2 in it but if you do you should visit a Doctor, he can help you. For your information more then 1 game was missing, and some games are still missing even now.

There are no standings posted yet because Round 1 is not yet finished. I can't post standings when there are none.

The moment when 1 game finishes, there are standings, and few games are already finished.

This is actually not true in my tourney. One game finishing means absolutely nothing. You don't have standings until all the games have finished in one group. Standings in this tourney means- who advances to the next round, and who doesn't.

For all normal world standings mean current standings regardless if the round is finished or not, except for you. But since we are not mind readers you should have written what you mean in the first page.

Just not a big deal to me and I think I just have a more laid-back approach to it than you do.

How do you know if I have less laid-back approach then you? Are you a mind reader?

I don't have to be a mind- reader. I am basing this thought from how you are responding to me in this thread. You were annoyed that there were no updates (even though I had been actually constantly editing my update post on page 2) in 30 days. You also seemed to be annoyed that Round 1 is going to last for months. None of these things would bother me- which is why I say I have a more laid-back approach. I understand that it is the nature of the tourney.

I quoted when did u edit out your posts... and it was over 1 month between some action from you. Your logic is amazing it works only for you

I have been in tourneys that have lasted over a year...

When was this? Years ago. Once again if you don't know the current rules read them, if you need help ask for it.

It has nothing to do with the current rules. The length of a tourney often depends on the amount of games, amount of players, amount of rounds, etc. For instance- The Winner Stay On tournament that I am in has been on-going for over a year. This has nothing to do with the rules.

Actually you not knowing the current rules has a lot with what you are doing wrong in here. Btw the rule is almost 2 years old

You still defend you friend even she is wrong... It seems that you are a dick, not me.

[NoSurvivors]

Can't defend my friend.. What, is that against the CC rules too bubb? if it truely helps you sleep at night, I'm sorry bubb, I am wrong, you're right.. Does that help your e-feelings at all? Is that what you wanted to hear? Good.. Now stop being a jerk and maybe learn to read the format of the tourney when joining tourneys.. Seriously bubb.. Did they not teach you that skill in grade 1?

chapcrap, GoranZ, and mviola

Look who signed us up less than 5 hours after the tourney was posted. I didn't even know about this tourney until I started getting invites.

Also, I'm pretty sure it says 3 invites every week for 3 weeks, not 9 games starting in the span of a week.

It's ok though, I understand you don't have the intelligence required to follow the situation closely. I'll just foe you because you're an idiot who didn't know when to stop.

I just find it strange to be in a tourney and I have been playing my 9 games for quite some time and another group had not even started theirs. Seems like every group getting 3 games at the same time to start the tourney would have gotten everyone involved at the same time.

Exactly the point I'm trying to make here. It's poor planning and execution on her part.

[BGtheBrain]

We probably dont need a scoreboard because my team is kicking everyones ass.

But in all honesty, cant we all just get along?

[NoSurvivors]

t's ok though, I understand you don't have the intelligence required to follow the situation closely. I'll just foe you because you're an idiot who didn't know when to stop.

Ooooh tough guy foed me.. poor muffin.. D: its okay, I forgive you <3. Like I'd join any of your games anyhow bubb youre shit

BG, I will not be friends with these losers.. nor will I get along with em.. sorry bubb, but I will leave them alone, so long as they do the same for the TO until a TD decides to say something about it..

Anyhow-- thanks for the arguements, was fun. Im out. Laters.

I have to agree with this... I wonder what is the score right now

But it appears BG's team his winning so its pointless to play the rest of the game

Yes, it probably is a guy thing.

In my update post on page 2 of the thread, I keep track of how many wins each team has. It's very easy to miss it. That was the post that I kept trying to point Goranz to; the one that I constantly edit. I'm not sure if he was referring to that post, or my OP on page one. I was referring to the one on page 2. It's buried for now, but once Round 1 is about over- I will re-post it all as an update post.

While it would be nice for the individual match-ups to be posted as well, that is a lot of typing, or copying/pasting for me to do. I do not see a quick way of doing that, and its easier for me to post overall wins. I do, of course, consider each team vs team match-ups 2 out of 3 to determine tie-breakers.

Again, once round 1 is almost over, I will bring that post to the bottom so its easier to find. I probably should have made a blank post on page 1 so that I could later insert it there. That way people could find it in an easier manner. My bad on that one.


Also, the way you suggested the games to have been made, is actually the first way I thought of. Yes, that of course would have been the quickest way. However, it would have been a very heavy workload for one sitting, and the games would've been very scattered. From my experience making the first tourney, it is so much easier to keep all the games for each round together. When all of the rounds were scattered and in different places, it was so confusing. I had a hard time keeping score. From experience, this is a much better method for me. It actually makes it more organized for me when all of the rounds are together. This is also why I won't remake games until the end.

I have to agree with this... I wonder what is the score right now


But it appears BG's team his winning so its pointless to play the rest of the game

Check the seventh post down on page 2. That post is updated every week with the number of wins that each team currently has.

And BG's team is doing very well They will most likely advance to the next round.

[VioIet]

Also, I'm pretty sure it says 3 invites every week for 3 weeks, not 9 games starting in the span of a week.

Mviola, where did 9 games start in the span of a week? There is no team in the tournament who had 9 games start in a week. I am not sure why you are fibbing here.

Exactly the point I'm trying to make here. It's poor planning and execution on her part.

I understand the point that you and TC are trying to make. But as I already explained before several times, that is not the way I choose to run things. If you disagree with that- it is perfectly fine and you have that right. However, I did things exactly as I stated in my format post. It seems like your partner signed you up for this tourney without your knowing, and you had no idea of the format when the tourney started. It may seem like poor planning and execution to you, but I still have to do it in the way that is easiest for me to run. I honestly didn't think every team not starting at the same time would be a big deal. 16 teams all starting 3 games at once at the same time (48 games) seems too many to make at once. At least for me it was. Instead of burdening myself, I decided to divide up the work evenly- giving myself a set amount of games to make and invites to send out every week. For me, a goal is easier to accomplish when I do small steps at a time instead of trying to overload myself all at once.

[VioIet]

I have to leave the house now. Goranz, I will address your post point by point once I return.

[GoranZ]

no its not against the rules to have no brain... Since you are dumb enough to figure it out on your own I'll translate it to you. I did read the format but yesterday I accepted 4 invites, currently I have 2 new. Last week I started 3 games which puts all games within a week.

That was the post that I kept trying to point Goranz to; the one that I constantly edit.

You mean about the one that you started editing on Wed Oct 03, 2012(that was after few players reacted)... I know about that one but those stats doesn't belong in second page.

[NoSurvivors]

I know about that one but those stats doesn't belong in second page.

I probably should have made a blank post on page 1 so that I could later insert it there. That way people could find it in an easier manner. My bad on that one.

Since when having no room on first page is a problem? There are handful other ways to achieve the same effect within 1 post.

Also, I'm pretty sure it says 3 invites every week for 3 weeks, not 9 games starting in the span of a week.

Mviola, where did 9 games start in the span of a week? There is no team in the tournament who had 9 games start in a week. I am not sure why you are fibbing here.

To be precise 9 days if I accept the last invite today.

Dear Vi, when you make your 1st batch of games, you can label them accordingly. For example:

Game Label: Prelims - Group 1 - 1st batch
Game Label: Prelims - Group 2 - 1st batch
Game Label: Prelims - Group 3 - 1st batch
Game Label: Prelims - Group 4 - 1st batch

or

Game Label: Prelims - Group 1 - 1 vs. 4
Game Label: Prelims - Group 1 - 2 vs. 3

My Avalanche tourneys are made by levels to have everyone going at once... just something to think about. I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that we appreciate your time you spend on making a tourney. And I especially enjoy your responses on this thread and marvel and how you don't explode at us...
