Hi there, lalo.
Your group was slowing down the cup, so yeah, it was necessary to post here
I don't really understand why you didn't think it was necessary considering you had several weeks to play your game and hadn't done so already. Clearly, something prevented you from playing! But it's not just you, I've even had one example where 2 players couldn't find each other for well over a month and when I randomly signed onto wormnet, I saw both of them in AG, and both of them were behind the keyboard! And they only played their game because I asked both of them.
That said, if you can play your game with darkz in a REALLY short time, I have no problem with that. But I didn't think it was fair to keep Maciej waiting longer while he finished his group 3 weeks ago.
