I just don't get it. The LAN is 14 days away, and a guy is less than 15 minutes past the alleged "deadline" and you can't just let him play. | ||

Even after Diggity stated in the thread that since you were not around that he would be running things from the other thread. | ||

This doesn't even really matter. Why can't you just let him play? Theres 2 weeks until the LAN, and you have to admit, you never made an official cut off time for play. | ||

Also, after reading the entire OP I see no information regarding the qualifiers, was that handled expressly through e-mail and private messages or is there something I'm missing? | ||

Start time may be 3pm and it may be well noted but there was absolutely no deadline set for when someone would be DQ'ed. If you're going to disqualify a player while not having a "Matches must be started by..." time set then there's a problem.

you never made an official cut off time for play. I made an official cut time. It was 3pm. Thats 3 hours. How long do you think is fair? | ||

If it says "until however long it takes to finish" that doesn't mean in 10 days you go "ok, ready to start! Technically I can cause this goes forever until every game is played!" There is a start time, people won't wait a ridiculous period of time for someone that can't be bothered to say "hey I'm going to be late" at a reasonable time. This transcends this event and is completely the norm for SC/SC2 matches. I'm glad you got to play your games nero but you've been around long enough to know that if you are late without getting permission you are dq'd unless your opponent is a saint. | ||

There was never a time that was considered the DQ time? Why can't I schedule a time to play the other person in my group? | ||

Also you dont need to grossly exaggerate with the 10days.. I'm pretty sure until however long it takes to finish was refering that the games would be played however long it took today to get them played. If not please explain to me what that statement is supposed to mean? There was never a time that was considered the DQ time? Why can't I schedule a time to play the other person in my group? There was a time, diggity said for today it was by 6 pm est. You can schedule a time to play the other people in your groups, but that was supposed to be done before today. | ||
