SIGN ME UP sounds fun!!

[Dragonah]

Alright, we've finally got the players we need, I should have the games up shortly after i get the tournament permissions from the TD's

Solider4christ, sadly, you were just after the cut off point, so you didn't exactly make it into the tournament, but I've got you listed as reserve incase someone goes MIA. just let me know if you change your mind and don't want to be a reserve.

[Dragonah]

Pm's have been sent out, and some people have already joined their games.

Now I have to ask again that teams join in the order listed in their PM's I've already had to clear two games and remake them in order to keep the teams in the method they were randomly generated.

Now it doesn't matter matter what order the two individuals from one team joins their game, but the over all order of how the 4 teams join the game need to remain the same.

in the PM's i had written out:

teams in this game:
person 1 & person 2
person 3 & person 4
person 5 & person 6
person 7 & person 8

i expect that each row of players joins the games in that order. Person's 1 and 2 can join in any order same goes for 3 and 4, 5 and 6, 7 and 8 so they could end up joining in this order:

person 2 & person 1
person 3 & person 4
person 6 & person 5
person 7 & person 8

Please, all i ask is you keep the teams organised in the manner i've set them, otherwise what use is randomly generating the teams out of a hat?

[Dragonah]

Actually, I'm going to amend my previous post, teams can join the games in any order, so long as the pre-assigned partners stay team up. So if there's an odd number of people already in the game, make sure the last person on the list is your partner otherwise you'll be joining the wrong team and ill have to drop and remake the game.

look at game two for example, kilazul and endar were technically supposed to be the third tema to join their game, but they joined it first, and the other two teams behind them followed suit to keep things in order. if we can pull that off without a hitch, then things will run smoothly from here on. otherwise im going to do my best to make sure teams stay properly sorted.

[Theldin]

Game 6 - checkmated joined 2nd when he was not supposed to.

[Dragonah]

Game six has been dropped and remade, and a PM sent out to that games participants to notify them of this.

Also, I would like to let everyone know that cupid1080 has left the tournament due to personal reasons, and is being replaced by soldier4christ, the tournament's reserve player.

[Dragonah]

Alright, i've been thinking this over for the past few days, and i think this will make this tournament a lot easier for all of us.

instead of separating everyone into indidvidual teams, i'm thinking of simply seperating everyone into larger groups and let people in those groups decide their own teams. Games would all still have 8 people in them, with all the current settings already outlined.

Considering how after 96 hours only 1 game has actually gotten underway, and that i'd like to get this tournament rolling smoothly sooner rather then later, i think we all stand to benefit from this.

I hope you folks don't mind this change. I personally think it's for the better of this tournament.

[Dragonah]

New PM's have been sent out to everyone not currently in an on-going game detailing the new game numbers etc. To those who got multiple messages, i do apologise, for some reason i couldnt remember to change up some info between copying each message to each group, the most recent one in your inbox from me will have the most accurate info and that is the one you should follow.

Don't forget, anyone who has not entered their game in 48 hours will be disqualified. So hop to it!

[Theldin]

The New Game 6 is still missing jezerai,
jezerai was the person we were waiting 3 days for to join before we had to remake and the rules were changed. Seeing as there are no more people on the Reserves list, might want to send him another PM or something.

[Dragonah]

Thanks for the notice, but 8 hours from now I'll be doing the eliminations for those people who have yet to join their games. So even if he doesn't join his game there's nothing to worry about.

[JustCallMeStupid]

Our game is missing half the people who are supposed to join, give them the boot please

-js-

[JustCallMeStupid]

How about I join game 6?

-js-

[Dragonah]

Sorry but i've had to slide kilazul over to game 6 due to an error of someone else joining his game and their own at the same time.

No worries, I'm about to start disqualifying the no-shows in a few hours time. Sorry for not doing this sooner, but my life has been hectic for the past 5 days, whats with school, thanksgiving etc.

I've changed the group listing on the first post to reflect the change that was just made.

[Dragonah]

Weel, as stated earlier today, I have disqualified the three players who have yet to join their game.

Blundmatt, jetpack, inonzuk are now disqualified.

As for the remaining 5 players of that group, in order to have the tournament proceed as planned, I will have to revise their game setup for this round only. I have sent a Pm to them with the new details of their game as I have dropped the current one to prevent the other three players from joining the game.

They will be playing on the same settings as everyone else, but it will be a free for all match with the top two advancing to fit the current format.

Also, I would like to address something that has come up. By an accident both on my part and on the part of benliaw, he joined two games, now to be fair I will not be disqualifying him from the tournament, but should his team win in both of those games, i will determine an appropriate course of action to deal with the situation.

[Dragonah]

I'm sad that i have to do this again in the same round, but i've been forced to disqualify two more players from the same group as before.

bargraphix and justcallmestupid are now out of the tournament as well... But there's still the matter of determining which two of those the three remaining players in that group will advance. So i've remade their game yet again to allow for only those three to enter.
