Great organisation. I tried to check in at 13:55 ( I barely managed to get back to home just to participate in tour) - of course grid was up, with Freeslots. The answer was - it's not our fault, it's iccup website clock, which is badly set up. Sorry, but it was your fault, you could change start time to 14:10 to avoid difference in website time, or avoid iCCup site to maintain this tour. You could also write anything about that time difference here in info post. But you didn't.
It's their first tournament organized ever and they rely on the help of the ICCup admins and their system. The likelihood they really didn't know is quite high. They live, they learn.
Edit: nevermind.

I apologize if my response to you in chat room came across as hostile, that was not my intention. I also want clarify that we do not blame you for being unable to check in 5 minutes before start. The fact of the matter is that we were completely unaware of the slight different between the iccup website's clock and the actual time. While the system is partly at fault here, our ignorance of these flaws were equally at fault, and as a result, you were unable to participate. For that I wholeheartedly apologize.
To avoid these issues in the future, check-in times will be extended to 1 hour for any similar events we may hold. We will also work on communicating times and dates in a more clear fashion.
Once again, I apologize for what happened, and hope that you will still participate in future SBWI events despite of this.

dRaW was going to stream, but he's probably sleeping atm. The date, time and stream for the official cast will be announced shortly.
This tour wasn't actually going to be casted at first, so getting casters was really a last minute sort of thing. Nevertheless, sorry for the wait...

Last time I used the ICCup Tournament System to host anything was more than two years ago. I never was a tournament admin, nor am I an admin now, nor have I been in the last two months, even in a senior position I delegated these tasks to other admins - so no, I could not have done it, I did not know about this particular bug yet.
Aside from this, these minor details can easily be forgotten or miscommunicated, there are many other aspects one needs or wants to know first. A perfect example of shit you just have to experience once, before you can fix it in the future. Keep in mind that the tournament, in a bigger picture, seemed to have worked out very well, considering that it was their first attempt.

I'm not really sure where I am supposed to get the replays from.
NVM it's on iccup webpage. So, I can start Ro8 whenever that is desired.

Thx to tehrei and abjurer for organizing this tour! The games between sziky and Michael were just astounding. Such fun and creative zvz as well as remarkable game sense shown by both players at different times.
