good idea d1 :) i hope alot of people join
-
I think the Cup is in lack of a little advertisement. :P
-
lmao i tryed it offline, so funny XDD
-
12 people so far though, Ray :) that's not too bad, is it?
Glad you like it, beer! I started doing low gravity RR after the people I usually play with kept picking the same map and I didn't feel like racing it in a normal way anymore :)
volrin approved of it as well! He even said it takes more control to master lg rr than it does normal rr
If Dibz still plays W:A he should definitely enter the cup. He was as fast with lg rr as he was with normal RR :o
-
Make it rrkit darkone! Dibz surely knew how to handle the lg indeed. He still plays, but I don`t know if he has got enough commitment at the moment to get the games done :-X
-
heh ill tell dibz about this cup, ids him doing that :o
-
16 players now with dibz! Sounds like a good time to start to me :)
-
DarkOne is this bo3 or bo1? Just played my game vs. Ray and we played it bo3 but didnt report it yet.
-
Let's make it bo3 since the games are much shorter than in usual schemes :)
Thanks for pointing out this little omission!
-
Guys, if you won 2-0 you should also report a 2-0... In the end the standings will be calculated by who won the most single games, so if 2 players have a 2-1 win-loss ratio the one who won more single games will be 1st. Means that if player A played 2-0;2-0;1-2 he will be 1st while player B who played 2-0;2-0;0-2 will be second. MonkeyIsland will have to fix that now.
Edit: hm seems like its actually now decided by who got the most wins, coz i would be on 1st place then...
-
Hadn't see this cup xD
Would it be possible to replace me by an inactive guy? :D
-
I wouldn't mind :) Plenty of those at the moment though :o people need to get their games played (me amongst those!)
Time to activate the PM machine
-
Whoopsie. I hope I'll be able to play this week at some evenings, hope to catch ya in #ag guys.
-
Crash, dibz and wooka, you can find me in ag tomorrow and on wednesday from this time til 22 GTM... Maybe I have time to play some games earlier at the day too (A)
-
been a little busy with holidays, can get my games done in the next few days if dibz and crazy is around
-
Yeah same here, but I`ll be around now, we should easily get the games done so active that we all are!
-
I suggest using the PM function of the site now, though, considering activity hasn't helped out so far :)
-
Yeah good idea D1. Yet, I believe people are maybe abit busy playing in the olympics (and they chose this over playing cup games) :o Postponing the cup til after the Olympics are over might be an idea?
-
The olympics (and generally, christmas holidays, really) were the reason I had not yet set a deadline :)
However, the olympics are not a 24/7 deal (in practice, that is; nobody likes every scheme) so I would still urge people to try to arrange their games :)
LGTT games don't last too long, do they?
Beer! Get active!
-
:O beer? here are ppl that didnt not played any game and u ask for me?
at night ill be able to play this, im waiting for my computer, at laptop last 3 days
-
Good, good! :)
I sent those people a pm to get things started, but my fingers are itching to replace at least one of them with Flori (since he seemed more eager!)
I mentioned you, cause we have to play our games and I had IRC on in AG for a long time while you never messaged me
-
Yeah Yeah :D :)
-
sry our games should have been played already, i was on vacation with no internet, but im back and have alot of free time next few days
-
ye, dibz and crazy we need play our games!
-
ye, dibz and crazy we need play our games!
You guys need to realise that posts such as these are no longer enough. I wanna see proof of you doing your best to arrange your games. That means setting times! The site has a PM system for a reason. I suggest urge you to use it.
-
crazy said he wont be able to play in this cup, maybe flori can take his spot?
-
Done!
-
Right, holidays are over, so this is your final week!
I want to be able to see whether you've tried or not now (sorry, but it seems necessary in order to get games played)
In case no games are played, I'm going to make these decisions:
Group 1: Almost no games played! It seems I'll have to have a lottery here to decide the winner. Crash has won his one game, so he seems a favourite to go through.
Group 4: TenoriTaiga is out of the cup if he doesn't play
Regardless of posts, I suggest that people get to WN saturday 7:00 PM GMT to get their games played.
If you are certain you can't get on WN at that time, then please post a different time for your opponent.

Time's up!
Group 1: easily the least productive group. I've heard that Dibz won his game against crash, but since he did not report, I can't really do anything with that result.
Crash seems to be the most active player, so he wins the group. The others will partipate in a lottery with equal chances. I sorted them alphabetically and used a random sequence generator make up a sequence (http://www.random.org/sequences/)
The player receiving the number 1 goes through to the knock-out section. The sequence was 1-3-2, which means that Dibz goes through as #2.
Please don't be this inactive again, though. You're making others wait.
Group 2: 1. Dulek 2. Random00.
Group 3: 1. Madden 2. DarkOne.
Group 4: 1. yanme 2. chakkman. Tenori, be more active in getting your games played next cup!
From now on, I'm having a deadline of 2 weeks for each round. If inactivity was a problem in one round, you will most likely be disqualified if the next round is also inhibited by inactivity!
If you have holidays coming up that will prevent you from playing your game in time post it here. At least then we'll know you can't play and we can arrange for something else.
So: Deadline for the first knockout round is February 1st!
-
Alright, I'll just post the deadlines for each round :)
Deadline for the quarter finals: February 1st 2010.
Deadline for the semifinals: February 15th 2010
Deadline for the finals/bronze match: March 1st 2010.
I think these times are not unreasonable at all :) You may use the first week of which round to find your opponent on msn/snoop/irc/icq/whatever, but if you're in the second week and you haven't found your opponent: Use this forum or use the PM function on this site. In case of the latter, don't forget to send me a CC, so I know you guys are doing your best.
PS: sorry I wasn't more of a challenge, yanme :-[
-
I played my game DarkOne. Cash transfer to my bank account as posted in the PM. ;)
-
sigh @ Dibz.
No game played and no post made here by tomorrow = Dibz is out. You have not responded to my personal message. You have not responded to Dulek's personal message. You have not responded to him on msn.
No more than fair that Dulek goes through if there's no activity from your end whatsoever.
Random's busy with exams this week and therefore has a valid reason for not playing yet.
Deadline for crash vs Random is now 8th of february.
I will be away on holidays for a week starting tomorrow, but I've asked MonkeyIsland to keep an eye out :)
-
Random's busy with exams this week and therefore has a valid reason for not playing yet.
I always thought 'I had a match in worms' excuse was valid for exams/schools/uni/life XD
-
so could any mod make dibz as loser? so i can play against dulek
-
we just made it today :)
so gogo :)
-
Dear me! I seem to have earned myself a '4' vote!
I hope my vacation wasn't the reason for that :)
I've sent all you guys a PM regarding the semifinals, since the deadline is next monday! I don't have a problem being lenient with the deadline as long as I can see some effort in getting the games played :)
-
Let's go forward, ggs yanme!
-
Gentlemen, check your inbox!
Deadline is in 7 days and I would like to see this cup finished in time :)
-
Guys, you have 2 days.
Post on the cup forum or send a pm to your opponent with a CC to me; suggest a day and a time to play your game.
If you don't, I'll assign a random bronze medal winner.
Message sent to yanme and Madden today.
Random and Dulek have given a good reason for postponing their game and will play their games soon :)
-
sorry, i got an illness so i wasn't able to play the last days, but i am usually up for everyday, madden have just to say a date.
-
Sorry to hear that, sir. I hope you're feeling well now.
About the second part, I really prefer that you don't wait for your opponent to name a time, because that's usually exactly what your opponent does :)
-
well, i am rdy if he see me in ag
-
Sorry for not responding to the PMs. I've just entered the final month of the final year of my degree course. Being the lazy-wormer-type student that I am, I've got ALOT of work piled up. I won't be playing any worms until the end of this month, so the bronze is yours Yanme! I haven't played much recently anyway so I doubt I'd have put up much of a fight :s
Thanks for a well run tourny DarkOne, I hope it hasn't discouraged you from hosting more in future :p
-
No, sir, it did not :)
Congrats on getting the cup finished, only slightly after the deadline :) Good job, all and congrats to Dulek!
-
Gj all and thank you DarkOne for hosting this :)
