Because it was scheduled on next Monday and not today. See you guys on Monday. Good luck and lets have some good fights

Oh, I know it was scheduled for Monday. That's what I am asking, why schedule it for Monday when they could have put if for today? Why make everyone wait for the sake of waiting? Specially considering that the NA league have a match today, so it is not because CCP has some holiday or something like that.

Also, why say in the message they sent, that if nobody replied the rescheduled match would be on Thursday, and then not making the match on Thursday because nobody replied? Ugh

We are tired of the tournament. I know that logibro and co are doing their best, but the format was bad, and the execution worse. We were really looking forward to finish it this week. I really pity the NA corps that have to do this for another month.

No problem with you guys. Just tired. You are the better team, but we will do our best to give you a decent match. Until Monday.

I get where you are coming from, i would not have minded to play it yesterday but i was telling all my guys that the fight was Monday, so i had almost no people online on Friday. i agree that the tournament is bad and i appreciate logi bro helping out but its too late.
EU league is already decided imo, In the top 3 will be the following corps, ..NFP, GAC and WTF. the only other active corp is tech guard and la 501 but they already have been beaten by the 'top 3 corps'

Your next match with us isn't the final battle. There are more afterwards in the "Championship bracket"

My favourite of the ones we've fought so far.

Absolute Idiom II No Free Pass 662	Posted - 2013.09.09 16:18:00 - [10] - Quote Isn't the point of running a round-robin that you can use that to seed the elimination part properly and try to ensure that the best teams meet each other in the semi finals and finals? Well then I ask why NFP are fighting WTF in the quarterfinal? As top seed we should be fighting the worst seed: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_(sports)

Absolute Idiom II No Free Pass 665	Posted - 2013.09.09 21:56:00 - [11] - Quote Shame we couldn't quite get everyone into the matches, and the tournament organisers don't understand how to do seeds (literally ********). But well played WTF. Nice use of officer weapons ;).

No offense at all, just curious, and my people asked me to find out. No, you are not supposed to have anyone not on the roster in the battles. I would ask you to also submit a support ticket with the details you have above along with the names of the people that you didn't see on the roster. I'll start looking into it on this end. I had this issue during a match on Sept 2nd vs Latino Killers Corp. I submitted a ticket at urgent fury and made a post in the forums and now 10 days later still have not received a response. Is there somewhere on these forums I need to submit a support ticket as well and if so where ? Yes, raise it here: https://dust514.com/user/help-tickets/ Use the Category 'DUST Community and Forums' and put it "For Attention Of CCP LogiBro"

Absolute Idiom II SyNergy Gaming EoN. 694	Posted - 2013.09.13 08:44:00 - [16] - Quote Hi Caz. I did genuinely enjoy our Quarterfinal match against WTFR. All of NFP did. The battles were tough and the results very close. However, we were 1 or 2 people short (RL happens) and we made do because the rules stipulated you had to be registered as part of the tourney team in advance. Should we have made the same judgement as WTFR and included some other SyN/EoN players who were online at the time? NFP were team from players across the alliance afterall. I'm sure if we had, that we'd have won the matches. Like you, I wish the rules were better. They were pretty damn inconvenient! But, importantly, they applied to your opponents as well as yourselves. In order to "bring the fight" as you say, by filling gaps - you actually gave yourselves an unfair advantage over any opponent who adhered to that rule. I think you have to concede that. You gave yourselves an advantage, and it worked: you won your matches.
Absolute Idiom II SyNergy Gaming EoN. 697	Posted - 2013.09.13 10:53:00 - [17] - Quote I don't envy the decision CCP have to make now. I predict the eventual winners will feel pretty dissatisfied. 1) CCP might order a rematches of the finals to determine the winners, but GAC and other teams/players have already stated they are unlikely to be able to field a full team for such a rematchs next week. 2) CCP might decide that the round robin results will be used to determine 1st, 2nd, 3rd. 3) Or some other mix of options. Any way it goes; no-one wants to win a tournament this way. No-one wants a medal because of opponent disqualifications. Or to play matches with or against incomplete teams.
Absolute Idiom II SyNergy Gaming EoN. 698	Posted - 2013.09.13 11:37:00 - [18] - Quote 1) Being in the EU team is about when you can play game, not about your physical location. 2) Play to the rules that exist, not the rules you wish existed 3) An an alliance 'super-team' we actually had the massive disadvantage of never having played with each other before. In fact, I'd only join SyN a day previously and the first tournament battles were actually the first ones I've ever played with EoN people.
Absolute Idiom II SyNergy Gaming EoN. 700	Posted - 2013.09.13 13:46:00 - [19] - Quote ^^clearly u mad. Mate, you are letting WTFR down with your rage. We wanted to play you (and to win or lose to you) by bringing our best game. Both sides found the rules restrictive in this regard - but only one side kept to the rules. I'm sorry that's it's come to this but you knew id advance what you were doing. Deal with it.
Absolute Idiom II SyNergy Gaming EoN. 705	Posted - 2013.09.13 15:34:00 - [20] - Quote Guys, calm down. Smartlayer hasn't been trying to excuse WTFR - in fact he posted specifically to say that any team that cheated should be kicked. I think it's perfectly fine for him to tell us what WTFR planned to name the planet.

There's no benefit to passively posting in this thread about it. I've taken all the normal recourse I could to spread this video to CCP and people at UF who apparently aren't even involved in this tourney anymore. It's ridiculous AE has been allowed to participate this long so I'm putting it out for the public to see. I'm sure you have done this already, but the steps to follow are: 1) raise a petition via this link: https://dust514.com/user/help-tickets/ 2) Use the category DUST Forums and Community 3) mark it for attention of CCP LogiBro 4) include links to the complete evidence of glitches (i.e. the full video which includes the start)
Absolute Idiom II No Free Pass 768	Posted - 2013.09.23 22:40:00 - [28] - Quote Mate, I know we're both Synergy.. ..but you can't say you've "taken all the normal recourse you could" when you haven't done anything of the sort. You can't legitimately claim to be publicly whistle-blowing when you haven't properly tried to do so privately. And since you apparently know exactly how "get things done" (but haven't actually taken those steps) we can conclude you haven't done anything at all. That is also not acceptable (though not equivalent).
