Dear all,

We need one more team as well as a teammate for @Zalo in order to start this cup.

Any volunteers? @Deadcode, @Komo, @Kins, @Albino, @trentemoller, @Danger, @Mai, @Stoner?

I will keep signups open till the end of the ongoing month if necessary.

Vesuvio agreed to join me, in the old school style that we played our clan games. It's only a matter of him clicking and typing my password.

Dear all,

The cup has started.

If you schedule a game, please report your scheduling here (use only CEST time zone) so that monitoring process will be easier.

If you cannot meet the main deadline for group stages, please let me know in advance so that a proper mitigation plan can be adopted (2 days early).

For any issues, do not hesitate to contact me.

I'm hoping to stream the following matches of the Group Stage on the CWA Twitch channel:

TheWalrus & sock Vs Camper & Kaleu
Korydex & VoK Vs vesuvio & Zalo the moler

The other one I was hoping to catch has already been played! Good job rUNaW4y & Mega`Adnan!

Also, don't plan your matches around me, play whenever you can, if I can make it I will, otherwise don't worry about it!

Dear all,

It seems Group #3 suffers from the lack of activity.

Walrus - sock / Kaleu - Camper / Shtaket - Mlaofmd, could you please spend some effort in arranging your games?

We have only 3 days left, and I would like to avoid extensions at this stage.

Thank you beforehand,

According to blitzed, there is no word from KinslayeR. I am going to assume there will be no word. Hopefully my statement will prove me wrong.

Edit: Not that it is my job to moderate but I see Shtaket and Mlaofmd online now. Perhaps reach out to them with a PM, encouraging them to reach out to their partner.

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,
rUNaW4y

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

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.

Post by: Kaleu on September 13, 2023, 02:32 AM
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.

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

"After a discussion with Walrus, Sock and Mlaofmd  we agreed that Camper/Kaleu and Mlaofmd/Shatket will proceed to knockouts stage from Group #3"

"Well, I guess Ukrainian pair are not interested in playing in this cup."



So we are advancing Mlaofmd/Shatket further, a pair that is already the inactive one? Maybe lets just skip group stage and pass Kaleu on #2 place so that we can fight him after, but if Shatket is not interested, then at least Mlaofmd should find a new partner, before we advance his pair. Lets do it now, while you can still do it in the group stage. We have many great T17 players, Foxhound, Senator, etc.

If Kaleu isn't in the mood to fight me and vesu right after then no problem. It's just that me and vesu were sitting here for 1 month and we are a bit blood-thirsty.

Dear all,

Only 1 day and 15 hours left.

This is how it will look like in case nothing changes in time (no further extension for Group stages):

Group #1
1. Lancelot/ QUATROUBLE
2. Chicken23/Albino

Group #2
1. Adnan/rUNaW4y
2. Kradie/Pdro

Group #3
1. Camper/Kaleu
2. Walrus/Sock

Group #4
1. Vesuvio/Zalo
2. Korydex/Vok

Notes: I have talked with Shtaket who confirmed his inactivity, so Walrus/Sock will proceed to KO stage as they have more probabilities to play games. 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.

Peace,
rUNaW4y

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.

Wait, the Chicken vs my team game never took place, there were several attempts to do it but they didn't coincide, why did they advance without taking that game into account? Chicken was on vacation for several days and we have tried to fix the game against them without success.

Just reverse their Knockout bracket and impose strict schedule, lets say the incoming Saturday at 18:00 (6:00 PM) GMT and make all 4 players appear on this day at 6 pm. If only one person is working this Saturday, just turn it into 18:00 GMT Sunday. Problem solved. Whichever team doesn't show up, they get eliminated.

it seems to me that the mod provided enough time for games, not counting the added time due to the lack of chicken23

for group games the mod allocated 27 days (!), subtract 7 days that chicken23 was absent, as a result we get 20 days for games in a group, this is more than enough for two games in a group

I will do the same in my cups - give the players enough time so that later there will be no questions for me about this

I understand that, but what I don't understand is why they give the pass to the team that was most inactive? My team were more available many times, I have the evidence on Discord. I think Zalo's idea is good, Saturday at 18GMT

You are absolutely correct Lancelot. That being said, lets just give those 2 teams this very final deadline, by default - this Saturday 18:00 (6:00 PM) GMT. If any team has objections, we can make it Sunday 18:00. It's essentially one universal time that all players should be able to agree on. That's the exact same time my team and walrus' are meeting this Saturday.

Sorry dude, I understand your remark, but I had to take a decision based on several factors such as number of victories, level of activity, attempts to arrange matches and so forth. In this specific case, Chicken23/Albino won a game, although they played only one. In addition, he said he would have played his group game after his holidays (something that did not happen in the end). Nevertheless, the number of victories was still the main factor I considered here, which allowed them to pass to knockouts.

I am trying to do my best in managing all this and I would like to manage played games instead of lack of activity.

Please, let us try to bring all this to an end, focusing on our games accordingly.

I would also note the fact that Jago sometimes ignores what people write to him in private messages. So I'll have to do something about it when I decide in the CD Cup

They were given enough time; they need to have very good reasons not to have time to play. You did right.

Please, for the love of God, please stop adding Walrus to more cups. It's just a bad idea. That guy is a ghost and he never shows up for a game, even when he himself chooses to meet at a specific hour (like today). All 3 people adjust to him, all 3 people are present, but he is of course absent. Wasting people's time... He was also inactive for the entire Comet Dodging cup.

And because he is a guy who likes to attack me back, he will not accept that he f*cked up, and take responsibility for it... No... he will just say that "Some people have jobs, private life, some people prefer to get laid rather than play worms, and you zalo don't have such a life, etc.". Please just organise a cup with smaller number of people, but people who are reliable.

you continue to offer inflexible times that i try to meet you at even though they aren't optimal to me, this is the life of an NA gamer on tus

Yeah... nice sorry you said there...

Dear cup admins, please consult with Walrus on PM when he is available. I did what I could. It was an entire week of waiting. As for this weekend I said that Walrus can choose Saturday or Sunday at 6:00 PM GMT (it's the latest time for Vesuvio, and Sock said it might be good because for USA it's around midday). Walrus wanted Saturday 4:00 PM GMT, so the 3 of us showed up and waited 2 hours. I couldn't meet him for Comet Dodging before either... so I leave it all in your hands. If walrus gives you his preferable time, it would be great if one of you was there to verify the attendance of the 4 players. Thank you.

zalo you are delusional, there were 5 other weekdays that were perfect to play, but they were past vesu or your bedtimes.  So we are left with a tiny window on the weekend that works for you and vesu. 

I personally apologized to everyone, but only you seem to have the psychosis.  How about conforming to sock or my availability?  There are many good weekdays to play if you want this to get played asap.  You say you want to get the game played but vesu can't stay up an extra hour or two during the week? 

I imagine the mods have better things to do than micromanage your borderline personality disorder.  Let's pick a new time to play, and try that?  You can try not having a personal crisis as well, it's good practice!

I talked with vesu and we both agreed that it makes no sense for him to be dead-sleepy on weekdays and wake up 3 hours into his sleeping time, just to show up barely conscious for a game, after we were already left waiting for 2 hours last Saturday, and showed readiness today on Sunday.

Dear all,
Please moderate your language first of all. This is not a war but just a T17 2vs2 cup which should be focused on having fun.

I am aware it might be difficult for all of you to schedule games when it comes with different time zones, but this has been already done in the past so many times that nowadays it shouldn't be so hard.

I kindly invite you all to keep calm and try to spend some effort in coming up with feasible options for everyone. In case of some unpleasent stuff, I will take my decision as fair as possible, accordingly.

@Lupastic, please just keep your useless statements related to your small kingdom for yourself. You are not even part of this cup.

Bests,

2 days ago (on 27th) I messaged Walrus on TUS in a private message asking him what time we can meet but so far no response from him. So far we don't know with Vesuvio what time and on which day we will be playing this weekend. Please OldSock, consult it with Walrus and send me his response here on TUS, okay? I also sent Walrus a message on Discord:

We can start our match on Saturday at 3:00-6:00 pm GMT or Sunday 3:00-6:00 pm GMT, 6 hours to choose from, Sock already said he wouldn't mind any hour. You need to say your hour if we were to meet at all.

but here also no response from him so far.

It seems to me that in cups like this there is no point in setting the time for the game, especially in the playoffs.
Getting four players to play at the same time is not easy.
Someone will have to compromise, anyway.
And this doesn't always work out.

We are also waiting for the next game, but whoever wins, playing the next match will be the next big problem for us.
Because my partner can play late at night, mostly - and I won’t be able to do anything about it, unfortunately  :(

We're not teenagers anymore, and adulting comes with a truckload of responsibilities. Finding time to game can be like searching for a unicorn in a desert.
And if that wasn't tricky enough, throw in living in different timezones. It's like trying to sync up a dance routine with someone on the other side of the world.

Let's remember that not everyone plays games at the same pace. Some of us are just casual gamers and don't treat it like a full-time job. So, please, don't push others to play faster or like professionals. We're here to have fun and enjoy the experience in our own way, without the stress.
Gaming is about relaxation and enjoyment, not setting speed records.

I can play anytime Saturday and Sunday I am mostly free

2 days ago (on 27th) I messaged Walrus on TUS in a private message asking him what time we can meet but so far no response from him. So far we don't know with Vesuvio what time and on which day we will be playing this weekend. Please OldSock, consult it with Walrus and send me his response here on TUS, okay? I also sent Walrus a message on Discord:

We can start our match on Saturday at 3:00-6:00 pm GMT or Sunday 3:00-6:00 pm GMT, 6 hours to choose from, Sock already said he wouldn't mind any hour. You need to say your hour if we were to meet at all.

but here also no response from him so far.
I just don't know if i can play either time this weekend, can i be like vesuvio and just set my preferred time and let you guys meet me?  Sock and I would like to play 2-5 GMT on a weekday, we are alway on then.  Let us know which weekday is good for you guys?

And if that wasn't tricky enough, throw in living in different timezones. It's like trying to sync up a dance routine with someone on the other side of the world.

We are talking here about only appearing for a game (not finishing it) on Saturday at 8:00am/9:00am/10:00am/11:00am or alternatively on Sunday at 8:00am/9:00am/10:00am/11:00am for Walrus time. 6 hours to choose from the american weekend when most americans do not sit at work and are awake. Sock is a guy who I see online in those hours all the time, hence from the very beginning we chose this hour with sock to meet Walrus comfort zone, not mine & vesuvio's. (Vesuvio often goes sleep around 12:00am for Walrus time, but he promised to stay awake longer just for that game). So we are not forcing anybody to do any crazy gymnastics.

You guys make it sound like:

"Oh poor poor me that I must wake up before 11:00 am on Saturday or Sunday for my time :'( Life of an american is such struggle :'("




Ok, Walrus replied so hopefully see you guys tomorrow.

What do you mean? That I'm a realist? Or that there are actually problems that have to be faced?

It is true that it is not reasonable to limit the time for 2v2 cups. Some agreed.

Hmm, what else? Probably because time passes, and mostly veterans play here. This is not pessimism, this is the truth. There are very few new players, and those who come are happy to play for the fans. And we’re hardly serious about playing cups here, are we? While our heart is beating in our chest, we do everything to make the game turn into entertainment, nothing more.

I have no personal grudges or reasons to quarrel with anyone. Even in game situations where emotions should never go beyond the boundaries of the game match.

Perhaps I responded to your quote. Perhaps not  :)

Ok ok Kaleu all good.

Will there be 2nd edition of T17 2vs2 cup? It's nice to play in 2vs2 cups, and T17 is one of the best schemes for a jolly coop game, which brought me back to TUS after many months of retirement and it's kinda sad it's over for me + vesu. We had great fun in group matches. We don't play many clanners these days because they will never lead us to any play offs anyway.

It's just a nice feeling to have some "event" here on TUS that keeps you coming back. No matter how many people are in american timezones, or how many people can only play in the evening only, Saturday + Sunday provide 2x12 hours to choose from, either in the morning or in the evening, so if people stick to those 2 days, it should work out.

That's how we were both excited to finally play today.

As far as I understand, the cup is dead.

I do not guarantee that we will be able to play our match in the future.

If I had the opportunity to change my partner, I would do it. The one with whom I played all the matches up to this point is not ready to fully play at TUS, first of all, he is not mentally ready to play here.

This doesn’t suit me, so I have to talk now about a possible match in the future.

Dear @Camper/Kaleu and @Vok/Korydex, it seems impossible to me that you couldn't have played your game having so much time to arrange everything. If this will still be the situation after the deadline, I will go for a coin toss, which will be a fair option for all of you:

- x3 Heads --> Camper/Kaleu
- x3 Tails --> Vok/Korydex

I just wan to point out that we offered many times and days (morning, afternoon, night) options to schedule the game while our opponents weren't that much flexible at all, they just offered a unique time and we should just adapt to them. I don't wanna argue over that because I understand people have more important obligations in real life, but please have a look at that in the future.
I played all my WxW cup and TTRR speed cup matchs in 1-2 days because my opponents were more flexible.

Moved you forward to the finals.

I think Camper could attach a screenshot of the dialogue so that questions do not arise in the future
I'm very rarely online, so I don't think it's appropriate to play in my schedule

We won't play, at least I won't
The cup is running too long to keep track of it all the time, so it will be better this way

Also, we will not play for bronze, so the winner for third place will be determined in the semi-finals

Peace.

That is some very strangely managed cup.

You win 2 games 2:0, you lose 3rd match -> You are out

You win 1 game -> welcome to the final!



Admins have done some of the weirdest decisions over there, passing forward an inactive pair of players, who didn't even care to play more than 1 game in their group, over Vok and Korydex, who played all their 2/2 group games, and they did so within 1 week. And yet, at the top of that you are still passing that same inactive pair of players further to the final when they didn't care to meet Lancelot and Quatrouble...  :-X

I would gladly accept this post as bait if I didn't know you were that stupid.
I would recommend reading the whole thread before jumping to any conclusions (based on pure saltyness though lol)
We are not inactive, nor ignoring this cup, check our recent cup and league games.

Camper played more games last month than you've played your entire life!
Same goes to my post count on this cup thread, I've probably posted more times here trying to arrange my games than anyone else, and this post count is probably higher than games you've played in the entire season. (warning of deliberate hyperbole here though, one cannot doubt your stupidity in trying to correct obvious stuff)
And for the last.. If you cared to read just like 2 posts above yours, the mod was not hand picking us to proceed, in fact, Camper messaged Lancelot just in same day when we were proceeded to semi-finals. He's busy in real life/ mad with cup dealy (I don't care to be honest, we all have our daily life battle), so it's not our fault that he asked to proceed us, could be any other pair.

You are so frustated man, you can never hide it. Just get good at some relevant schemes and people will take you serious.

All decisions have been taken based on reasonable, public, agreed as well as fair (as much as possible) considerations. I do not have any personal preferences for none of you. I just wanted to bring this cup to an end.

Furthermore, I thought the scope of the cup was having games arranged and played, but in the end it is clear that it is just a forum with plenty of complaining.

Now I have really enough of all this and I prefer to ask @Komo to drop this cup instead of keeping it open for 90% of participants who will not be able to arrange their games.

I will never go again for 2vs2 cup.

Thanks to all that took active part in this cup.
