Team17 2vs2 Cup

I'm going to Spain and won't be back until the 11th. Could you please extend it a couple of days? We nearly played Jago and his team mate but got confused on GMT vs BST and also another night his partner didn't show but we should be able to play easily when i'm back from a holiday.

I have reached out to KinslayeR and Blitzed here on TUS Pm system and none have replied.

Can you help?

Dear all,

Just a few updates about the cup:

- Kins informed me that he will not be able to play his game against Kradie/Pdro during September. We need to replace him accordingly. Any volunteers to team up with Blitz and play the last/pending match by the deadline set for Groups stage (only 4 days left)? Otherwise, I will allow Kradie/Pdro to proceed;

- After a discussion with Walrus, Sock and Mlaofmd  we agreed that Camper/Kaleu and Mlaofmd/Shatket will proceed to knockouts stage from Group #3 (please guys, do not make me sorry for this decision; both Walrus and Sock were understanding towards you);

- The last match in Group #1 is still pending, but as Chicken23 mentioned several days ago, he should be able to play the match against Jago/Wesawe soon. If this will not be possible due to the lack of availability from Jago/Wesawe, I will allow Lancelot/QUATROBLE and Chicken23/Albino to proceed.

Do not hesitate to contact me in private for any issue you may have or for any clarification you may need. I will try to take a fair decision in any case.

Bests,

Hey, Camper and I are very very active atm. We tried to reach walrus and sock multiple times when they were online, but they never agreed on themselves to play with us. The 2 ukrainian guys I have few contact.
I asked Mlfaofmd few times to play on discord and he always replies "not now", even his own gravity battle cup he refused to play and advanced other people.
I know he's just a kid but cup admins should put cooldown, warn or prevent people not active enough to join cups when they clearly showing disinterest in past cups.

I will leave here my times and I will assume it's the same for Camper because we always play around these times.
We are not interested in advancing without playing.

Mon. Wed. Fri. Sun.
20:00 to 03:00 GMT
Sometimes much earlier, need to ask me on discord.

Who is the inactive one here? Because if you have 3 separate teams and nobody can meet anybody then it looks like all of the people in the group 3 are all inactive.. Put 2 new pairs over there maybe? Free advances out of group stage are never fun. That should be earned with hard work.

We all remember what happened the last time when things were like this. 3 pairs inactive, and then cup admins were dragging 2 endlessly inactive pairs into advanced bracket stage, and because people could never meet them, nobody knew who is to be blamed, so mods kept putting them further and further with free wins until semi finalists couldn't meet them either...

about group 3, if I were a mod, I would give a few days, in addition to the set time, for a game between an American and a Brazilian pair of players

they both deserve to make the playoffs

forgive me for such a designation of rivals, I'm not a racist 

If there is anybody deserving anything, it's the players WHO ACTUALLY PLAY.

If there are absolutely no people willing to replace the group 3, please put Kaleu in #2 place so that we can battle them with Vesu right away. Let's just spare everybody their time.

Well, I guess Ukrainian pair are not interested in playing in this cup.
Because we are here discussing various compromise options for not very active groups, but several of them have written anything here from their side.
Сamper and Kaleu are quite active and also play almost every day. I think this is enough for them to make it to the playoffs

The cup moderator makes time to ensure that the group round is played within a certain time frame.
Of course, there are situations for players when they cannot play for a certain period.
In this case, they must warn the players and mod in the cup comments.
Chicken23 did this, this is an example for others why you should always write why and what prevents you from playing your matches in a group.

The option for mod to extend the timeout for group round games cannot be endless.
I understand that nowadays it’s difficult for four players to get together at one agreed time, but it’s time to move on.

I personally would like to finish playing cups on Tus as soon as possible, because I don’t see any activity from players, including when registering for new cups or tournaments. Considering that I have to gather people for a week for my tournament, which can be completed in a short period of time, I use the methods of individual invitation in PM on TUS. I don't like forcing people to go play in a cup or tournament. I periodically send invitations to general channels TUS (chat) or discord WA channels. I think this should be enough for advertising. but since there is no activity, then there is no point in all these cups. I feel that it’s time for me to free myself from the burden of the clan and some specific sports things here

Keep the conversation clean please. *removed messages*

Notes:For the case of Zalo/Kaleu drama, if you both agree I can place Camper/Kaleu on the second place, so that you can solve your personal issues during KO stage, as real men.

There is no drama from my side. It's just my strong personal preference to fight him, after all those provocations and insults here (deleted by admins). I would just enjoy such a fight more than against other players who show civil behaviour. Have a good day.
