Good Decision Baldy, I think you've made a good call on that



And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.

Anytime you put this many people together you end up with the age old DIYDDIYD (Damned If You Do Damned If You Don't) situation.

I commend your strength to keep going with these tournaments BE despite all the drama that many like to initiate. You remain level headed and continue to come back no matter how much others seem to want to criticize.

 :salute  BE and may there be many more tourneys to come.

BTW thanks for the extension for me and dangle. There was just really no way our times were going to match and this is my short week meaning I work only Weds night into Thurs after noon, leaving me with plenty of open times after I get off work tomorrow (Mon) morning.

UPDATE

Rather than updating the bracket tonight I've spent all day wrestling with a decision.

I retrospect, the advancement of Tomcat21 last week after posting that he was going to be offline for a period of time may not have been the best decision.  Clearly since he didn't respond to SF this week he's still offline.  I've decided to allow DrBone and SF to fight if they'd like to for the quarterfinal spot.  If they can't or won't then Tomcat21 will still be listed as the random draw winner but because no player can advance by random draw two turns in a row SF will advance to the quarterfinal round by forfeit.  If they do fight then DrBone will be promoted to the Elimination Round 3 position by forfeit and whomever wins between him and SF will advance to the quarterfinal.  I'm not posting the bracket tonight pending what happens here.  You have until Tuesday night at 10:00 PM CST to fight or not after which I'll post the updated bracket.  I know this throws it into SF's lap to fight and possibly lose or to make it difficult to get it in and simply advance.  I hope that both decide to fight.

Both LTDangle and haxxor have PM'd me asking for an extension.  Since they both asked and there were extenuating circumstances I am going to allow an extension until Tuesday night at 10:00 PM CST.

I want to explain that last week after a long hard week at work then so many uncontested duels I simply couldn't spare the effort it required to review every post and make each advancement decision on my own so instead I threw it in the committee's lap.  I still think the committee did a good job.  If Tomcat21 had been around this week then those fights would have proceeded as normal but with him not responding (and I highly doubt he will by Tuesday either) this opens a window of opportunity to allow DrBone back into the tournament.

I know I'm going to take heat on these decisions but like I said, I spent the whole day thinking about this and believe it's in the best interest of the tournament.

All that said there are two duels that can move forward.  They are:

RedBull
Typh Mk I
TC

TitanMD
N1K2-J
Sonic23


And the updated bracket will be posted Tuesday night.
I respectfully decline this BE but appreciate what you have done.  :salute  :cheers:

+1  :aok

Given the new circumstances you are trying to make the event work as well as possible  :salute

and  :salute :salute for making the effort to sort this out. In hindsight it now seems fairer to DrBone  :aok

Bone. Find the time and have the fight. If you were going to turn it down, or were too busy to continue in the bracket, you shouldn't have said anything.

It's about the fights. Not making a statement.  Come on! :salute

I'm here, and ready.  If Bone isn't going to fight, than I'll advance past Tomcat via his forfeit.  I'm not going to chase Tomcat around the arena's trying to find him.  I've pm'd and posted here numerous times.
