If we don't get some people to go for it, we can lower the level limit to admit more folks. Yeah, going to be hard to get games in this weekend with 10 people per game, but it's worth a try :)

Yes, you'll need access to CTF maps to play CTF.

One team gets through to the next round. 10 was an arbitrary number. We can expand or shrink the team numbers depending on how it comes together.
Also, if we don't get enough teams for a full tourney, we can run with who shows up to play, everyone gets goodies and we can try again to get more people involved next week. I think CTF is a lot of fun and adds another dimension to PvP over just killing, since you have to run the flag, protect your flag and all that.

But we have a technical issue, it's possible for others to run faster than the rest depending on their ping. Sometimes they go twice as fast as I do:/

I have an important question, so far there are only two teams registered and it's saturday already. So, if there are not enough teams to start the competition this weekend, will it be able to carry over to the next one? Because many people have work and school during the week days. So yeah Sam can u tell us what's going to happen?

07-30-2011, 03:00 AM
When will we actually start the tournament?
I saw so many team had signup for the competition, and I read that the maximum team to join is 10 team. Hope there is no guild to divide their member into 2 team, that is so egoistic to take other people chance to join the tournament.

BWAHAHAHA........ passive aggressive much :-) no need to act like nobody knows who your talking about.... besides we started with one team and planned on just that with a sub or 2 but then we ended up with 13 people from our guild wanting to play.... Not our fault we have so many active members is it? So yes, if you find a team to take you we will see you on the field :-) Good luck and may the best team(s) win!

Easy Tankkaar. Ah I see, so there indeed is a guild with 2 team. Not trying to flame anyone here, just thinkin of a fair play in my thought. Lets say we got a guild with so many active player, then they send 5 team in it. Can we be sure that they wont lose on purpose when facing own guild? With more teams in a tournament, a guild will have a bigger chance to win it. Am I wrong?
Ah so there is a chance to resize it. My bad. But again, im thinkin of fair play. Do I flamin anyone here?

Don't worry Bro..... Unfortionatly with a text base game/forum its hard to catch the tone in peoples voices if you know what I mean? But we both know that you were reffering directly to my guild in your original post so please don't try to say you didn't realize that a guild had actually created 2 teams. I do want to say I understand you thoughts on "fair play" in a way..... however to imagine that anyone would willingly give up the chance for free plat, and not 1 but 2 pairs of antenna is ludacris, especially in a guild such as ours who prides themselves on fairness and honesty in game play. You also bring up the guilds having a greater chance of winning by entering in more teams, which would be a valid point had this been a guild oreinted CTF match. However its not a guild event its a STS event and open to anyone and everyone to join, am I right? We didn't create 2 teams for our guild to have a better chance of winning because our guild won't get anything for it. We created 2 teams because its only the players on the team that gets the prize and we all wanted a chance to win.... I'm just thinking of fair game play here but isn't it kind of wrong to assume that just because we all belong to 1 guild we don't all have a chance to win? I mean would I not be able to apply your same argument to 10 different friends creating and joining 2 teams? Because thats all a true guild is, friends :-)

Good luck to all! I know we are all ready to get it going. Let's keep it clean and have fun!

One team gets through to the next round. 10 was an arbitrary number. We can expand or shrink the team numbers depending on how it comes together.
Also, if we don't get enough teams for a full tourney, we can run with who shows up to play, everyone gets goodies and we can try again to get more people involved next week. I think CTF is a lot of fun and adds another dimension to PvP over just killing, since you have to run the flag, protect your flag and all that.
So, will you guys be doing weekly tourneys? Also will you be doing tournaments for twinks?

Work it out with the other teams on the list. You can see who's online and send tells (or private messages via the forums) to figure out when your teams will fight. The post a screenshot here showing who won.
Likely, we'll change this to be a monthly or every-two-week CTF Ladder with prize/title going to the top team(s) on the ladder and seeing who can bump them off the ladder.

Sam, would love to have a couple hrs notice so we can reach out to our teams and get them all online? Will there be specific times and teams that each group is assigned or are we to setup and battle on our own accord?
EDIT : answered while typing.....lol
Also, I have a team mate that is trying to join my CTF group but the option to join isn't given? Is there a cut off for sign up that was missed by him?

Hi All
Our team, Bodyguards of Alterra, thought the easiest way to find times to compete is to set a schedule and maybe let the other teams pick what works best for them. Please feel free to PM Nybblets or myself Angeldawn to Schedule.
So here are our thoughts for today.
All Eastern Time and approximate
7:00 - 8:00pm
8:30 - 9:30pm
10:00 - 11:00pm
11:30 - 12:30am
Thanks and we look forward to playing with you,

Sam,
Not quite sure this is gonna work. You have teams unorganized with short notice and some teams joining late. A bracket is the only way to insure fairness and teams from entering after other teams have been eliminated. Also, with this still being single elimination, one team (9 right now) makes it to the second round without playing.
Anyway you can make a quick bracket?
Thank you!

Okay, let me make it clear one more time. Im not trying to flame anyone here okay. I respect every other guild as well, include COT. Okay I got ur point Tankkaar, and I agree with ur thought and believe both of ur team will fight the best :). It is my bad to not realize that the maximum team to participate can be resize, but if it fixed to 10 team then we having a guild joinin a team more than 1 of course it isnt good right? Taking up space for others to join. Im personally say sorry if any COT member felt flamed by my word. No hard intention ^^
@sam. A tournament without an authority watching the game. No guidance, will be much of a chaos. I can only hope everyone is mature enough to face a lost. But we have many kids in this game. Just a thought, perhaps a devs could aupervized the battle.

Looks like loseryareli isn't just a troll, but a noob as well.
We deserve a win by default against these dim-wits.
Aside from the language you're using, you have a point. It just seems like an unorganized mess at the moment. I even specially set an alarm clock to wake up and kick some butt, only to find out nobody could find anybody. This definitely had to be prepared better IMO
Devs should set fix times or something, working together with the team leaders. Only then frustrating things like what you posted could be prevented. If a team doesn't show up at a specific time, they should be disqualified.
Now, it only feels like we put a lot of effort in getting our friends together at a specific time, only to find out the other team decided to change the schedule. I'm sorry
If I sound a bit harsh, but as things stand now, I don't see this tournament going anywhere.

07-30-2011, 08:00 PM
excuse for slushies comments lol, but yes, i was told by krusty krabs emloyees 5 mins to be rdy cause they were waiting on alterra, but alterra didnt have 5 on, so they told me they'll fight us. so we waited 30 mins, while i was PM'n andyvierr and loseryerali, and no reply, and we found out through slush that he was told they were fighting another team in the following SS's.
heres my say, having to find leaders/members of teams is a cat and mouse chase, now the time wasted for a ctf game is gone. i say delay this tourny with a more sanctioned system by samhayne, so it will be more organized. and on top of that, being one of three teams registering before the deadline, we find out 3-4 entered on the day of tourny...which makes it unfair...idk these are my two cents.

Lmao? Go to the tourney page and look at the bottom of the ladder, it says krusty krab vs cot a. What kind of tourney would allow you to choose your own opponents? This is just ridiculous.

Was a fun match. Last flag took days to get and made me late to running practice lol. Told my coach "so you'r going to make me run laps for being late" he laughed and made my spilts faster with less recovery. Then i told him "so my punishment is a better workout, thanks " and we both laughted. Running is to good and one of the few non curupted sports. Back on topic, congratz krusty krab team 3 more wins left.

Just seen brakets but wouldnt it be more fair if you had 5 teams vs 5 teams then the 2 teams that allowed the most points to be sored on them play each other for a spot at top 4 and then you go from there. Only a suggestion coming from someone that has ran tourneys with weird #. If not it doesn't matter since the best team will win regardless of structure.

yes I forgot we where playing around a little bit in this game before we started while we waited so some of the kills are from before we started so since the score is 5-5 did these kills that their other players got before the game started contribute to it saying that blue team won instead of a tie

Don't be such a sore loser. You know for a fact that myself and birdjoe did not do a single thing. We were at the same spot the whole time.

Engel, please respect others. I greatly appreciate Hovarth, he being a gentleman to admit and he is good on CTF. Situation is im on last flag, touchdown by a milisecond faster than Hovarth to get the system recorded my team to win. I will appreciate if u show us some respect as well. And fyi on last decision, we have 5 players. Shadow team with 3 players. We agreed a 3 on 3 match. Hovarth got a lot of kills when he is in free pracfice, as well as my other 2 friend get kills cause we were on free practice before match start. So please, respect us like we respect Shadow Knight. I agreed, it was a close match. Good game Hovarth and teams.

07-31-2011, 12:53 PM
O.o!
My opinions, we won because we did return the flag faster than hovarth, it's not about the number of kills.
Kopi and I didn't do anything during the match, we got the kills because we played one on one before ctf started. Btw, Hova killed a few too before the ctf started.
Sam, can you please come out and prove? :banana:

when one team reaches 5 the game ends correct? The score is 5 to 5 that calls for overtime or Rematch IMO

so if you got 5 first game would be over 5-4 correct? how can we score when the game is over the final was 5-5 and real good fun played game with alot of vereran players I just dont understand why a Rematch is such a big deal when the score is 5-5

Engelhard, no offense, just wanna express my opinion... :/ Hteik is right, won is won, take it easy mate ;)
A win in ctf doesn't care the kill numbers, it's all about who took and returned the flags FIRST.
Btw, by simple calculation, Hovarth got a number of kills which is more than the total of the whole blue team's kills, so you can easily understand it's not about the number of kills but who did returning flags first.
While that may be. The system recorded 5-5. If the blue team really won, it should be 5-4. They should do a rematch, IMO.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks 5-5 calls for a rematch
Just seems fair I'm really not trying to be a sore loser as ive been accused and like I said many of these players are true Pocket Legends and I respect all of them but would love to clear this up with a simple rematch :)

With all my respect to u Apollo. Please listen to my explanation. Ima say this is a system failure to not sign us out immediate to result page right after I scored blue team flag. As I keep saying before, this differs on a miliseconds for which system is too late to bring us to result page. And indeed system recorded blue team scored faster so we won. As all of my friend agreed, we wont do a rematch. We fight fair and square.

Hey guys -.- today (france time 5pm), CAOS team made a match vs UNITY.. But problem.. We were 4 d
They were 2.. Therefore we waited a bit for their team Mates
To come.. We waited about 10min ... Some ppl had to go some stayed etc -.- only a little wanted to reschedule .. Unfortunately they didn't want .. We said let's go 4-4 BUT WE DIDN'T SAY IT WAS THE OFFICIAL MATCH! :(
5min of fight one of the UNITY had to go .. Therefore Mysticaldream replaced her! SHE ISN'T EVEN IN THEIR TEAM! they said "it's the sub" but NO it's SHOOTERPOO! That's why it pissed mr and my team!
THATS Why all my team mates wanted to ask for a rematch at 5-5 (as ifs sais IN rules with "team of 5") OR for another round to avoid direct elimination and let us a chance to show our power! Plz samhayne let us at least a chance and make a fair fight ! Against unity or another team who lost at 1st round! We can Make the best of the 1st round eliminated who could win the price of semi finallist!

Hi Sam, i was in the BH Shadow Knights game, I wouldnt get into the debacle on the scores above.
However i actually want to reports strange findings and experiences during the match.
My ping was constantly showing yellow 300-400s, but there are times where i attack opposing team, and they did not reacts nor affected at all.
Actually happened to me 3 times.
And also i have my share of kills, more then 2 which is definate, however it did not shows at end game.
Wonder if above is worthed to look into, just as input imho, to clarify if it is in fact bugs in the map or missunderstanding of the scores and kills system.
Many thanks.
Fellow BH Good Game, and Hovarth Good Game !

Listen. When you have teams in two different time zones, a tournament that started very late, and brackets made after a mass confusion, it may take days to finish this. Please be patient as we are doing the best we can to get things together. We are just as frustrated as you are. We were ready to go last night but could not due to the mix ups.
Also, after reading about Unity using a sub whom was not on the list, would this not lead to a DQ? Need to keep by the rules here.

With teams on different time zones and difficulty getting matches together, are we extending the deadline on this till match is complated?

Ok so after reading the last 2-3 pages...Sam, plz this tournament should abide by the original stated rules:
1) between the CAOS and unity match, why was there a sub of a different player other than shooterpoo?
2) Sam, why was there a 3v3 ctf game? Title says 5v5. That would make it seem unfair for ppl who did wana join but didn't have a team of 5.
Just giving my assessment of the situation with recent events. And ask to please follow rules for fairness.

Sam here is what happend. We won this match fair and square and heres why:
We all agreed 1030am eastern. By 1040am we had all 5 members. They had 4 members. So We AGREED on a 4v4. Our 5th person ashxrose left at that time because of the agreement. Then the match began.
By mid-game the match was 6-2 we were winning. Unfortunately because of the delay i had to leave so JCOUlT agreed to sit out(which according to you a 3v3 is okay) However since mystical was watching the match, I gave them a 2nd choice before i left. I told them mystical can play in my place or Jcoult can sit. They AGREED for mystical to play ruling out their first decision and also because we did a favor for them they did a favor for us.
Now we were already destroying them 6-2, we had all 5 players ready to play, we did them many favors for them. If the outcome was different and we lost i bet you they would have never complained about it and we would have had no say about it. Too reschedule this match after seeing we are obviously the better team would not only be too time-consuming and difficult but will delay this tourny tremondously. Nono sorry but we won this match fair and square.
Btw the end score was 10-3 Unity(my team) won the match

Ok it was 3v3 our team has 5 but because of time zones our other players where not on and we agreed to play 3 v 3 because some have to sleep and tourney ends tomorrow so it was our own fault for playing 3 v 3 with two watching so a total of 5 lol

I can vouch Mikey is telling it straight:) Nono even yelled before the fight "4v4 NOW". Was pretty clear it was the "official" match. I don't see any valid reason to ask for a rematch. I even have a screenshot of them saying to rematch and if they do they'd give Unity a 2 point head start:)

LOL! You're like a ninja!
But my question is this: Are we saying that if the other team agrees to a non-registered sub, then we can play the match as "fair"? If so, team COT-A could have already finished our match with Asian Invasion. Just saying.

My post apparently made some ppl mad cuz I received some insults! OK SORRY FOR this POST! secondly ash had to leave cuz she was at church and not cuz it was 4VS4! :'(
And finally saying 4 vs 4 doesn't mean let's start the real match! It could have been a training match too! NOBODY precised! Now Kelly (and maybe others? ^^) if u really need those plat and those antennas fast ok! GRATZ U WON! just that could have been a so good match with all the best players of our team ! :(
Whatever I want this match to be Rematched out of tournament for cool moments ;) nobody can refuse this
Whatever..
What about my idea samhayne? The 2 first round eliminated team fight together? And the best of all of them get the semi finallist price? could be a good thing and could had more fun :)
Will be a chance for all the guys to get something only for participation :)

Nono, it says in the thread if there's no sub and someone is gone, you can fight with the people you have there. It could've been 5v4 but unity wanted a fair fight, and had me sit and ONLY played 4v4. It was a fair fight.
I also asked you a question, if you guys won, would you be asking for a rematch? Or take the win? Honest answer, you ignored by question both times I asked...

07-31-2011, 06:56 PM
Ok ok.. About the last post , first I'm speaking for my team! And trying to make the things fair! Secondly, I never lie! All that I said was pure true! I don't understand why mikey says "I ruin ur fun" ? Cuz I'm trying to make the things moving? Seriously, the fact is that mysticaldream had nothing to do in the team match at that we did a 4vs4 (nobody said official) and in the rules it's said "a team of 5"
Moreover, as guchi said most of guys were leaving and coming
Back, lagging etc .. Wasn't serious.
Now end of the discussion about the unity vs caos ! Its not because Kelly is ur friend that u must say I lie! And btw it's her who lied about ash .. Or maybe she doesn't remember? :/
And when we said "rematch with 2 points for the other" it was because we were disappointed about the match which could have been so wonderful and which could have last more than 5 min! This is ruining the fun!
Now I don't wanna make ennemies so peace guys!
Hehe now I go to sleep 3 am starts to be late lol^^
Cya soon and plz don't speak about me only cuz I was speaking for my team and not personally!
Ty for reading and Ty fr answers ! We will have great fights next tournament ;) I hope soon cuz my team and me haven't played much if u see what I mean

Nono, nobody said it was a practice game either. You can try to find loopholes all you want, but I think in the back of your head even you knew it was the real game. I hardly know Kelly to be honest, I don't even think I have him/her added. Nothing against him/her, I just have never gotten the chance to get to know him/her, so that's not the case. I'm on the said that logical and has truth... I just don't see the point in asking for a rematch. You guys said why does it matter? You guys will win (you referring to unity) so I don't see why there's much of an argument here. Was a fair fight from what I saw. But, eh, not looking for enemies either, I just don't understand this whole thing...

I never said it does. I don't expect special treatment due to the title, nor do I want it. I said "I think", just my opinion and I'm entitled to it:) Never said you know it, I just said I think you knew it was the real fight, but I can easily be wrong. I'm not trying to come off as rude or impolite, sorry if it seems that way. I personally don't remember ever having you on my friends list, but I wasn't trying to insult you in any way. I'm not trying to make enemies, it's just my opinion on the matter, everyone's entitled to one. As I said before, I just don't understand this whole conflict but meh.

07-31-2011, 09:49 PM
Ok, so up until now I had been lucky enough to not have to deal with the inability of others to organize a small group people. As everyone knows team COT B was scheduled to fight Unity this afternoon even tho they obviously broke the rules once by having a sub/alt that wasn't even listed on there team roster play for them. So earlier this morning I logged online to arrange the meeting of our groups on the CTF field. I went to the leader of the guild Kanital and explained how 2 of my people for guild were in way different sides of the world and how we would be totally ready and willing to do battle at 5pm PST to which I was told that was no big deal and we agreed to meet back here in PL at that time. Well long story short, I arranged with my team to log on at that time and even gathered other means to communicate with them (ie: fring, skype, text, ect) to ensure we would all be here for the monumental event. Thing is we were all here and team Unity was nowhere to be found for a good 45-50min after which Kanital finally logged on. When I went to speak to him he logged off again, it was actually another 20min before he logged back in. So again I went to speak to him and ask if his team was on. He said NO, and then out of nowhere said he's leaving for 4 days and I had 2 options # 1 being we wait the 4 days till his all mighty return (which is ludacris) or #2 which was to let them find a sub for him to take his spot (the thing is they have a sub named shooterpoo) and when I told him he already had a sub his only response was " I don't know yet " what ever that means? I then explained that there was a 3rd option that was being forgotten, he and his team could forfeit the match and allow us to move on to the finals which I can honestly say he wasn't very thrilled at the notion. After a drawn out conversation he concluded the same way he started stating that he was leaving and we would fight upon his arrival in 4 days and that "Its not his problem"... which is absurd to say the least!
Sam I want to say I totally love this concept and can't wait for there to be more tourney's like this, I understand that this is a learning experience for everyone involved and hope there is a lot taken away from this. But with that said WE ALL need to be able to follow the rules aswell as know that if these rules aren't followed there will be repercussions such as disqualification from the event. Because I fully believe that should be the case here I want to push for a full disqualification due to forfeiture of match for not showing up at the mutually agreed upon time frame. We waited for 2 hrs and didn't even get the chance to win or lose .... I have to say besides feeling like I wasted not only my time I feel like I wasted the time of my team and walk away from this feeling demoralized.

Because I fully believe that should be the case here I want to push for a full disqualification due to forfeiture of match for not showing up at the mutually agreed upon time frame. We waited for 2 hrs and didn't even get the chance to win or lose .... I have to say besides feeling like I wasted not only my time I feel like I wasted the time of my team and walk away from this feeling demoralized.
[/end vent]
Although at first I was against a disqualification, I have to admit, I'm all for it now.
I was in team B, set an alarm at 2AM, just so I could be there for my buddies. And I was there, standing next to tank when Kanital logged off, and let us wait. I was really looking forward to this. I have a busy life, but see PL as a kind of a hobby of mine. I can understand that things don't always go as planned, but the way Kanital talked to us, offended me to be honest. It sounded like HE made the rules, and that we were just a bunch of noobs getting our butts kicked anyway. I don't want to go into further details, because I'm not here to flame. I'm just annoyed by the fact I lost sleep over this, while I have to get up for work early in the morning again.
Sam, I really think it's a great thing you did here. You gave us something to look forward to, while waiting for the SL and the PL update, and that's much appreciated. But, you have to step up here IMO. It can't go unpunished if a team keeps offending the rules. It's not about the punishment here, it's about the lesson people can learn from this. In real life and in sportsmanship it's also important to obey the rules. If you don't follow them you get either fired/disqualified. I don't see how that should be any different here. It's a game, yes, but this is a competition, isn't it?
This post was meant as constructive feedback, I'm sorry if it might have sounded a little harsh. I just feel people should think about other's private life before making schedules they don't follow.

Ok, so up until now I had been lucky enough to not have to deal with the inability of others to organize a small group people. As everyone knows team COT B was scheduled to fight Unity this afternoon even tho they obviously broke the rules once by having a sub/alt that wasn't even listed on there team roster play for them. So earlier this morning I logged online to arrange the meeting of our groups on the CTF field. I went to the leader of the guild Kanital and explained how 2 of my people for guild were in way different sides of the world and how we would be totally ready and willing to do battle at 5pm PST to which I was told that was no big deal and we agreed to meet back here in PL at that time. Well long story short, I arranged with my team to log on at that time and even gathered other means to communicate with them (ie: fring, skype, text, ect) to ensure we would all be here for the monumental event. Thing is we were all here and team Unity was nowhere to be found for a good 45-50min after which Kanital finally logged on. When I went to speak to him he logged off again, it was actually another 20min before he logged back in. So again I went to speak to him and ask if his team was on. He said NO, and then out of nowhere said he's leaving for 4 days and I had 2 options # 1 being we wait the 4 days till his all mighty return (which is ludacris) or #2 which was to let them find a sub for him to take his spot (the thing is they have a sub named shooterpoo) and when I told him he already had a sub his only response was " I don't know yet " what ever that means? I then explained that there was a 3rd option that was being forgotten, he and his team could forfeit the match and allow us to move on to the finals which I can honestly say he wasn't very thrilled at the notion. After a drawn out conversation he concluded the same way he started stating that he was leaving and we would fight upon his arrival in 4 days and that "Its not his problem"... which is absurd to say the least!

I agree. Rules are meant to be followed. If not not Sam, sadly to say, further abuse of the rules and regulations will be further taken by people, and will totally have future tourneys disfuctional if not properly fixed.

No, I feel strongly that they're a lot of fun - just a lot of stuff to iron out to get them rolling.
As for people with poor sportsmanlike conduct, well, we'll just prevent them from joining future events - problem solved :)
Yeah me and my buddy had fun too. Its actually been a while for us to be able to gather, but we have a reason to now, as we all doing CTF practice and gather for the match. And im happy to fight by their side at the competition. Im sure all others team felt the same way :)
Well, thats a good solution! Hope this will teach some people what good sportmanlike.

What's funny is that I was standing there in Balefort watching the drama. Was kind of surprising, with some of the names involved :(
Hopefully it can get ironed out, and more tourneys like this can happen. Time zone issues are always going to be there, hopefully a good system can be devised.

Unsportsmanlike conduct will not get you invited back.
Clearly, there's a lot of work to do to get these set up and working. Everyone's time is very valuable and yes, matches must be agreed upon and people show up or no-shows are disqualified.

Sam, we have further screen shots of him flaming tank in game. Using profound and unecessasry language. And that is exactly what I said when I read what kan said in game: "unsportsman-like and not classy"
Atleast have suggestive reasoning kan, and not go out of line with the following comment made. You were already given a chance with the illegal substitute.
But w/e, what was said was said, and it shouldn't be condoned by others for the sake of pl's future for tournaments.

Didn't want to take sides here, especially since I'm not directly involved. Though my not participating in the tourney does give me an unbiased opinion.
I have to agree with Tank's team. Like any sport, meeting, agreement, or whatever, if you agree on a time to compete and one team doesn't show, unless it was agreed upon before the set time if a no-show happened, it's an automatic DQ for the no-show group.
It's natural sportsman conduct, doesn't and shouldn't have anything to do with being scared. Tank's team did show up in the first place to compete didn't they?
Just speaking from experience, been on both sides of the coin here.
Hope it works our for the best.

Maybe you could make an official thread where we can arrange our times better. If 2 teams agree upon a time, you update the post with that time. This time is then absolute. You forfeit if you don't show up at that time. Now, you could make it a bit flexible so teams can reschedule 24hrs before the match or so. A link to a timezone converter might be cool too :)
If you don't have the time to put this together, with the pending releases of your new products, I'd be happy to step up and make that thread. Or you could appoint any forum member to make that thread, I'm sure most involved people wouldn't mind taking that workload off of you.
About the Unity no-show... Will these rules you mentioned be applied?

Nono, it says in the thread if there's no sub and someone is gone, you can fight with the people you have there. It could've been 5v4 but unity wanted a fair fight, and had me sit and ONLY played 4v4. It was a fair fight.
I also asked you a question, if you guys won, would you be asking for a rematch? Or take the win? Honest answer, you ignored by question both times I asked... myst it also says you can't use subs that are on your team as you were not on the team you should not have been there watching or not.

NO, it was to arrange a time for our teams to mee and that's what we did. Do you hanestly not recal?? Lemme see if I can jog your memory? I found you in pvp arena and popped in we said hey I explained I had full day of stuf and other people in my guild were from australia and other places in the world and then I said we should be ready to roll at 5PM PST weather wwe have our australian or not, to which you replied its not a big deal, ok! And then I said Kan go and we fought 1v1 and I beat you and then I said ok cya at 5 and left....
What really amuses me is I haven't changed my story once while now 5hrs later your just deciding to tell me we never decided on a time?? Don't you think that should've been your first argument...lmao

Not only was he unsure of who his teamates were he had no clue when they would be able to fight, stating that two of his team mates live in Australia. This was the last i personally heard from this team. Not to mention Kelly and I were both offline for the majority of the day. We would never schedule a match we couldn't make. Period. So to say that we were a noshow is just absolutely rediculous. Just like our first match when we have a time set Kelly will post it here on the forum.

Don't make a drag? Trying to disqualify opponents?

Cloakker, he isn't stirring up drama and all of that. The broad spectrum here is being missed and completely overlooked, which are.the RULES by Sam himself stated did not seem like it was followed.

Ok? Why go to fastcast when he isn't leader? Contradicting...
EDIT: ok kan, if you told tank to pm Kelly (and according to Amy, Kelly and herself were not on the whole day) why couldn't u simply tell tank that she is not on and etc? I suggest better communication more please.
But like I said, this is way more than setting a scehduled time..its more than that now even before this conflict with schedule making even began.
