I have tried pm'ing a few people to remind them about the cup but have not had any replies.
I think if people sign up to a cup or whatever here and do not play their games without letting people know a reason.. they just no show a cup, they should be unable to sign up to cups again for a month or maybe have a note next to their name so people know that "this player may not play his games" so hosts can make an informed decision.
Some people here I know are trying to play them, and there is still 5 days remaining. All will be well
It's funny though, people are voting me down already and the cup has only just began.. what else can I do?
Stop drinking the hater-aid people! xD
