Secondly, the 'season lineup' you put in spoilers is fubar, a garbled mess. Might wanna repair that I guess. Thirdly, while Crossfire technically is Blizzard-made as you claimed, it's a remake of the proleague map Sin Peaks of Baekdu. I checked the thread to see what server you were on. Seems it's NA so nevermind me.  | ||

Gabeski's reply, "I know, he isnt on," was given 2 hours after Flowandebb's comment, "Gabeski. Youre supposed to be playing hybris as we speak." Hybrid, I (wanted to obs, lol), and I'm assuming Flowandebb waiting an hour. Now, if everyone (concerned) is cool about it, I think this match should just be rescheduled. In the future, however, I think it would be best to set up more precise play times, and also a rule as to how long a player has to wait after that time before his opponent automatically forfeits the round. | ||

The season line up is just something we use to know who is playing against who. The "real" schedule is posted on the website. That said, it should probably be renamed huh? 3. Did not know that. Thanks for your input! | ||

I agree with this. However, if one player openly states that he is ready to play, but the opponent is never on, then the opponent should get the 2-0 loss and the first player should get a 2-0 win. It's not the first player's fault, so the opponent essentially forfeits the set. What I was referring to, however, is when two players agree to play at a certain time, but one doesn't show up. For example, two players may agree to play at 3 pm. What happens if one player doesn't show up by 3:15, 3:30, 4:00? It's not fair for the other player. What if they decide to reschedule afterward, and one player again doesn't show up for some time? What's the time limit, and the reschedule limit? I understand that it may be hard for people to schedule exact times to play. What I suggest is that players agree on a rough time/date, and when that times comes closer, an exact time is set. Then, if a player does not show up after 30 minutes, he forfeits the set. | ||

Then, if a player does not show up after 30 minutes, he forfeits the set. Alright... See, this is why I left things unstructured, as far as the weekly rounds. It would be one thing if someone doesn't show if this were a tournament being held in a specific night. However, that's not the case, and players are free to arrange a time to meet. I have a few axioms that were in mind when I did structure things as I did, and where i left things unstructured, i did so on purpose, for the most part. Most important point: I do not want players to win by technicalities (e.g., opponents forfieted games due to inability to show) Season games are not scheduled at an exact time and date: I wanted this to be somewhat casual, in order to decrease losses due to nerves. I hoped that everyone can be honorable and make the times which they arrange to play, yet I do realize the possibility of real life issues getting in the way, thus the unstructured nature of playing within the week. Players should make their best attempt to live up to deals made: Although I understand things such as, "I ran into a boss/colleague/professor and had to chit-chat, in order to maintain professional relations, and giving some excuse like, 'Oh, look at the time, I have to go play a video game, I'll catch you later.' Might be inappropriate," or illness, car accidents, bad internet problems, etc. However, things such as, "Oh crap, I forgot, my bad," or frankly, inexcusable. Although this is meant to be all in good fun, I don't want players abusing the system of kindness, nor abuse technicalities: I really was averse to setting down concrete rules such as forfieting if not arriving within 30min, etc., since players may feel it wise under such conditions to throw up their hands and say, "Well i tried, I'll just be unavailable for any times he/she attempts to make up for the game, and thus I win." Given this possibility, and in light of the "most important point" above, I intend on handling such issues on a case by case scenario, rather than setting forth anything concrete. Despite the unstructured nature of weekly matches, the finals will be structured: I will coordinate schedules of those going into the finals/semifinals/etc., and we will agree on a date and time to play, and forfeitures will be possible and likely in case of no-shows. Furthermore, any ties or seatings that may change due to incomplete matches from the season weeks will be calculated if there were a possibility of changing the line-ups, such as say, bob has won 20 games, lost 4, and is waiting to play 2 others due to inability to coordinate schedules, but say the 4 in the finals won 21 games, thus making it possible for bobto have entered, then that may be an issue in need of resolution before the finals commence, but we can cross that bridge when/if we get there. However, say bob hasnt played 2 matches, but would need 4 match wins in order to get in, then who cares? Final Words: Just let me know of any issues, attempt to make up matches later on in the season if you haven't finished/started them, and be honorable, and don't no-show without a good reason and a good apology.  | ||
