Post by: Lancelot on July 22, 2024, 02:13 PM
I welcome all the guys to the annual Comet Dodging Cup.

I invite absolutely everyone to take part and join the cup. A little later, perhaps, I will start sending out personal invitations to those who did not see.

Yes, it was unexpected, even for me. I happened to see last year's CD cup banner and then realized I had no right to break the annual custom.

I hope we get 32 players. I may have to wait about a week or a little more so that we can get the number of players we need.

Don't be shy, invite your friends, clanmates, and just those who are barely familiar with WA,
because this is where everyone can participate, and perhaps win or take second or third place.

And be sure to tell that in the playoffs each participant has two chances to reach the finals.

Welcome! And thanks for your attention!

I think we can start with 24 players, or it is possible with 32 players if I find the required number of players before the end of the week

I'm glad to see you  :)

If everyone I personally wrote to in a PM at TUS agreed to participate, I could easily gather 32 players, but unfortunately, not everyone wants to play here

I'll wait until Sunday. Maybe we can get 32 players

6 left

Come on guys, I've already written to many people in PM and to some in discord. I've already done everything in my power to get players to join us.

It would be a shame if we don't get enough players. Well, we'll wait three full days for 6 more players.

Yes, and I'll be glad if someone helps us find the missing players.

Thanks

I mean those players who register to have the required number of players in the cup, but then will not participate in it

That's why I was primarily hoping for TUS regulars and regular players, because I am sure that they will play, unlike newcomers. But maybe I'm wrong, let's see how it goes further

Okay, groups done.

I'm not limiting the time yet, so try to play your matches without delaying the time

If the opponent shows no signs of activity, let me know.

Perhaps someone wants to join as a substitute, also let me know about it

Good luck, guys  :)

You can find me in AG and we can arrange optimal date and time from there. Perhaps I am available right away. Btw, if you join my game and I have a lot of people in there then the likelihood for me to play cup there and then is close to 0%. If so we try later.

I would also like to ask the participants of the cup not to ignore PMs on TUS, because for some players this is the only way to negotiate with other players about the game.

Not all of us use snooper, or can be online for a long time while on the channel.

I can help with games, especially with groups 1 and 4, you just need to write to me about it on TUS or in snooper

Not counting the game between Saint and MarianRV, we can say that the playoffs have officially started

You have three weeks to play your matches.
I can add 1 more week if there are any particular difficulties, it's at my discretion.

If you are interested in the time needed for the game - it is about 30 minutes, maybe a little more.

And yes, if there are difficulties with creating a host or finding a player - write to me, I will try to help.

Do not forget that any playoff match, except for the final and the match for 3rd place, is a bo7

The final and the match for 3rd place - bo9

Good Luck!

If these games are not played, none of you will advance further.

If the game is not played, I will add one more week for the remaining games.
In this case, InternalHigh and MonkeyIsland advancing to the next stage of the playoffs.
The next matches might look like this:

InternalHigh vs Shtaket (LB)
MonkeyIsland vs Lancelot (WB)

Also, I think Triad will also advance further in the playoffs

But let's wait another 4 days, Kaleu and Peja still have time for their match

Also the winners of the specified pairs are already awaited by their opponents.

Please use any means to contact your opponents and agree on the game.

For possible difficulties with the match, contact me or XanKriegor. We will try to resolve your situation together

@Kradie vs @Shtaket
@Kaleu vs @Triad

You have until Tuesday to play your matches.
I gave a little more time to the second pair, because two matches were played today.

If you do not play your matches, Triad will go further in the cup.
But I am not sure about the second pair.

Please send me any information if your opponent does not respond, ignores, or otherwise does not contact you on TUS (Discord can also be considered, but secondary).
By default, the method for communication between players is NOT DISCORD, but the TUS website (these are comments to the cup, PM or general chat).
Therefore, if the opponent is not an active party for agreeing on a time for the game (on TUS) - this fact will be considered against him.

I have a rough idea of who is an active player here, I also take into account the player's responsiveness and his online on AG

p.s: perhaps the community is used to cups that are played out at TUS for months, but this is not my style.

After all, a player who connects to a cup automatically agrees to the rules.
Yes, I can make some clarifications to the rules to avoid misunderstandings of individual episodes in matches, but nothing more.
The rules, scheme, maps for games in the cup remain inviolable on my part after the distribution of the group round.

I am not talking for this cup now, but in the general state of affairs
