Fair reminder that default time is 7 PM EST. Of course that's only a default, you may play early. Or you may reschedule if your team can't make it this week. However you do have to play the BO3 and either win/lose it to pass for the week. It must be played before the start of next week; whenever both teams mutually agree to reschedule for to play. If played early, recording and match reporting is still a must. Use this thread to report your matches and file disputes (must be via a legitimate reason) and please check with the rules before you accuse.
Week 1 matchups are listed above. We will not have a streaming show this week and will probably arrange for one next week. That's all. Thanks and good luck everyone! -

Thanks lots to the teams that played. We got six to play today which wasn't bad! Really hoping to get all 12 to play. Otherwise there's no point of a standing/ranking. We aren't going to grant ffws every week. And we certainly won't make future exceptions for matches that weren't supposed to be played. No shows will disrupt plans. So here's a few things for everyone to keep in mind:
- Showing up to play is important. It's only a BO3 every Saturday. You all signed up; which means equal priority to actually commit to showing up and playing.
- Also you need to have finalized rosters for each week. We can't keep giving people exceptions because their S5 didn't show up. Have substitute players, use communication. This isn't a ringers tournament.
- Check the forums at least once or twice a week (generally from Wednesdays-Fridays). A few clicks really, to check out who you are playing for the week. That's all really, and then show up for that match.
- Regarding today's filings for no-shows, the teams that showed up with their S5s will receive an automatic map win of +1. For those that showed up but didn't have enough players to play, you will receive a -1. And for the teams that didn't even bother to show up, a -2. This is only fair to the players that spent 30-60 minutes waiting for you, etc. I was online way before default tonight - I saw entirely who showed up and who did not. For those six teams that did not show up, you can reschedule from tomorrow to next Friday to zero out the minuses on your standing. That is:
trix vs alphav
Escapeartist vs Waarmachine
Poverty will play 3sUP as WLS completed their week with team BurnOut.
*again bolded teams are the home teams
I personally think that Week 1 was rushed, yes it was. We gave people only 24 hours to realize who they were playing. But since we outlined these issues here today - let's try to improve for Week 2 and beyond. What I have to say has been said above. Please provide additional feedback if you have any.
Overall tl'dr - let's just try to show up. From now on we will post the matchups way before Saturday. And if you cannot make it on Saturday, you need to either play it earlier or reschedule afterwards (but must be played before the following week's 'rotation'). -

Excuse me? Escapeartist did show up and we waited for 30+ minutes for a team that did not show up (Signup Format). I spoke to Logic on steam and he said that we could leave. The mod in lobby "NesTea" said that we can play Burnout right now, but Logic said that we only have to play that if both teams agree. At that point in time, EscapeArtist did not want to play (one of our members had to leave). Logic said it was fine and that we can play them at another time (which I assumed to be next Saturday @ default match time). -
Sorry I meant to say did not play. You guys got a +1 for showing up. Overall you did not play your scheduled match for this week so all we're asking you to do is try to reschedule. It really hurts our standings if teams don't play their matches. Win or lose, they still need to be played at some point (preferably before the matches of next week). Like I said we won't be granting ffws every week. And you can't depend on keeping a perfect recording by showing up but not playing either. The games have to be played. There's plenty of time to reschedule, or play the matches of the week early.
I did note that it was our side of the problem for releasing the info so late, so Week 1 was indeed rushed. So all we're asking right now is for the matches that were supposed to be played, to be played - for the 6 other teams that did not play last night.
Again I apologize for the confusion. -

Ah okay that clarifies things. Must we play the match within this week though? Or can we wait until the next default match time?
Thanks in advance. -

You had four players and not five, also half were ringers that weren't even on your roster. =/ I can make one exception but I can't allow 2-3 players that weren't on your roster to play. And WLS waited an entire hour.How did BurnOut get 3?
One for showing up with 5 but did not play their assigned team, and two for winning 2-0 against WLS. That's the policy we will run from now on. Ultimately we still want to have all 12 teams playing.HIddenmage wrote: »Ah okay that clarifies things. Must we play the match within this week though?

You can play it next default time but the thing is with that, you'll have 2 BO3's. It's really up to communication and rescheduling capabilities with the other team (in this case for you guys is Signup Format aka Waarmachine). Check it out with mykl/MOETIME/any1 else on their roster and see when this week they are available to play before Saturday. -

Nope you guys have already played your match from week 1. So you guys are all set.
A 1-2 is basically from you losing to Burnout 0-2 and the 1 is from showing up with a full roster but not being able to play the team that you were supposed to (even so that did that negative affect you).
---
Matchups for week 2 has been posted on our generic rules/information page. Default time is still 7 PM EST on Satuday 10/17. Remember, if teams don't play the match(es) they miss from each week, they will have to reschedule and complete them at some point. This is only beneficial to you and us, as our standings will not be accurate if teams don't show up and play. A top 8 placement guarantees a playoff spot. So I don't see why to not just show up and play! -

When will the season end so my team can participate in this? A lot of teams dont even show up
Also, how did BurnOut get 4 when the max you can get is 2 , and another if the original team didn't show up? If I read the rules correctly -

We adopted a recommendation and so now the official policy is as follows:
2-0 granted to teams that get ffws, an 0-2 for the other team - for that specific week. No more 0-1's unless it's a map loss.
And yes if you want your team can replace teamBREAK which has dropped out from the league. Just let me know your team roster and I'll reset you guys for week 1 for a fresh 0-0 start. -

Is there another team that has dropped out? My clan could be interested in participating too. We can wait til the end of the next season if there isn't (when is it btw) -

Hate to be nitpicky like them, but how is Poverty 0-2 when they haven't shown up at all , and likewise how is Burnout 4-0 when they lost this week? Shouldn't they be 0-4 2-2 respectively? -

Poverty is 0 - 2 right now because an admin hasn't updated week's two matches on the post. They'll be 0 - 4 when they do that.
Burnout is 4 - 0 because they played two matches last week. The first being Carbon as they no showed and the other against Wreckless. This week they played Intrusive so now they'll be 4 - 2 overall. I'm presuming for the last week of the regular season BurnOut will not be playing as they're ahead of everyone by a match. -

Atm only teamBREAK has dropped out. If your team/clan and Iron's have rosters before next Saturday I will happily submit one in place of teamBREAK.
If another team (such as Carbon or Waarmachine continue to not show up they will be out) and we'll see by Week 4.
If your team replaces during Week 4 then there would have to be a certain required standing by the end of the season for you to reach the playoffs, as your team joined late.Jewpappasd wrote: »Hate to be nitpicky like them, but how is Poverty 0-2 when they haven't shown up at all , and likewise how is Burnout 4-0 when they lost this week?

Has been adjusted to reflect match reports from this week. In fact all teams have been updated accordingingly. -

Well will we be getting a bracket or some sort of indication on what team will be playing who for the respected week? People can then get some rescheduling if need be and give teams some sort of insight on what's going on. I believe I read it that we were supposed to get this on like about 4 or 5 days ago..
Also for playoffs, can it not be double elimanation as there should be a second chance for teams to win something from the prize pool. Maybe have a prize for fourth place as well? -

The matches will come out significantly earlier this week.
I'm not too sure what you mean, but double elim means that you can lose twice, therefore granting you a second chance to win something. -
There's no need for a bracket each week as it's just one best of 3 that a team is playing another team of. We post the weekly matchups every week, and they should never repeat - will make sure they don't.
Next season we'll look into different formats. For now it is going to be - bo3 for 7 weeks. Then single elimination playoff. We may do double elimination next season on a fresh 2016 start.
