I wouldn't say countless infractions but we have had several instances in each tournament where a winner has posted results in questionable circumstances. While all of these to date have been in elimination rounds the rules are there to run a fair and impartial tournament as well as to streamline the decision making process.
I'm not a big fan of rules but over time they've expanded to include more and more circumstaces that have cropped up. At the end of the day all I want is for everyone involved to say that I ran the tournament fairly and didn't play favorites. Do you think I really enjoy pouring over every post between updates seeing who did and didn't post and what they said and when to determine if they should advance or forfeit or deal with the mounds of PMs I get during rounds?
I don't think that given the fact that we hold everyone else to the rules that they should suddenly be discarded in the later rounds.
I'm working 12-13 hour days with an hour or more of commute time to make ends meet. I have about two hours of free time when I get home at night and if things don't click to allow me to update on Sunday nights then my limited time for any type of relaxation gets eaten into. So Sunday didn't work out this week so here I am Tuesday only to find out I'll probably be back each night the rest of the week to see if things got settled. It might be funny to you but it's not to me.
BE thanks for all the effort. Perhaps someone could pick it fromyou and give you a breather. I will consider it, but perhaps a more experienced veteran will step up first.
As for the desputed fights due to the loser not posting, Perhaps a time limit of 24 hours is enough. If a player really has a dispute, they should say right away. Perhaps the frustration of losing causes some to avoid the thread for a few days. No reason you should have to wait for them to return to find out they had no dispute.
As for my match with Suns. I guess we're waiting to hear from JB11, but might I suggest you assign a plane? I'm willing to fight Suns, and if something changes the outcome and I have to have a re-do with JB11, I'll just re-do it. I'm perfectly fine with more duels.
Just trying to make it easier.
Thanks and a big
for all the effort you put into this.
