Decisions for the group as they stand now:
Group 1: OREL has been kicked out of all cups (and he already voluntarily left this one), because he was slowing down lots of cups without ever arranging a game. Haksch is also terribly inaccessible. As it stands, Kayz and Phanton will go to the knockouts.

Group 2: You guys are all active! And yet, you're not getting the games done... I don't think I can let any of you to the next round if you don't play or arrange games.

PM sent to remaining group phase players:

QuoteThe summer vacation time is almost over, which means deadlines are coming back to TUS cups!
The deadline for this cup is September 5th 00:00 GMT
Since the rounds have taken a long time already, I'm going to need people to arrange their games in the cup threads. After all, you would've found your opponent already if waiting for them had worked.
This is how you arrange a game.

QuoteLet's play our game next Sunday at 8PM GMT

This is not how you arrange games

• Hey, meet me in AG anytime
• I can't find my opponent!
• I messaged my opponent, but he didn't answer
• Yeah, we'll play our game soon
• Let me know when you can play!
• Let's play in an hour

Remember: if you're slow in your own cup, you will make it impossible for others to host new cups.

Are you going to set a deadline for the semis, mister maul?

Get the finals done soon, sirs!

That way, the next cups can start (Including a whole new exciting hysteria cup!)

Good job with your activity, guys! Keep it up

Decisions for the groups as they stand now
Group 2: Haksch seems to be going to the next round.
However, if his opponents are making an effort to get the games played, while he is not could easily be changed (there's no point in having inactive players in the knockout phase)

Group 3: Turko is out. He hasn't been on TUS for a long time and doesn't seem interested.
lales and Inza have to play eachother for the second spot. If neither of them makes any effort, group 3 will not have a runner up.

Daina, ArtiC, I've seen your opponents post in the cup thread, but I haven't seen you guys at all.
I'll have no choice but to advance dibz and Agneau to the finals without playing if you don't do anything I'd rather see you play!

(this was PM-ed to all people still in the cup)

yanme hasn't been online since july, so, I'm kicking him out of the cup.

Get the finals done quickly, sirs!

I'm not going to watch your replay if you're posting like this.
State your complaint and add a specific time to look. It'll take us weeks to reply to complaints if everybody does this.

I don't like to steer shit up (i love it), but I got banned for much less. What changed?

BAN HIM!
*cough*
never mind


Uber, no I don't play TUS actively, but this does not mean that I don't play W:A actively. I've actually played W:A for quite a long time too. It saddens me that you're assuming I don't know what it's like to play with people like Zippo. Even more so that you seem to assume the Zippo complaints don't frustrate us as moderators.
And you can stop pretending that Zippo and Doubletime are the first and only annoying people ever to be on WN.
I know someone with chess like Zippo too. The last time we played, I escaped with a draw and he called it the worst game by far that he had played. (A far better comparison than nino's exhibitionist example, if you ask me.) I just told him it was by far the worst game I had played today too. I can tell you he didn't like that


Of course people are frustrated. You guys are being annoyed constantly by the same 2 guys.
Now read this thread and pretend you're crash/Zippo. Would you be motivated to be nice to these guys?
We're not asking you to be nice to him/them, you can read it back. We're not defending his/their behaviour, we're really not.
But there are people here (in this very thread no less) who've had their moments that are far worse than anything Zippo has ever done, yet no one has asked us to ban them.
How would you react if a thread like this was started about one of your mates?


If you recall, there actually was a period when Zippo was actually acting quite normally. This was after Komo had a little chat with him (kudos for that btw, Komo). If you hadn't noticed that, then you're only paying attention to Zippo when he's annoying.


Chakk, I fully sympathise with what you're saying there. But I also recall a certain bungeerace cup where you were reluctant to kick someone out who was misbehaving  (you could chalk that experience for the first paragraph, Uber). You might also note that I never asked you to kick him out either, but rather to address the multiple complaints of just one game.
I'm not reminding you to criticise your decisions in that cup in any way btw. At the time, I was really pissed at how things were going, but in retrospect, I think what you did was the best way to handle the situation.

I removed nino's latest post.

Seriously, dude, calm down. Weren't you the one telling me to chill? Happy to return the favour.

D1 after your post I will give you more respect ... you do a good job here. is not really part is do what's right.

Thanks How about you help me make my job a little easier?

Quote from: Komo on August 29, 2010, 09:10 AM
* You must have some trial and error here? Why not just try it out? If it doesn't work, just remove it again? I think it's worthy enough of trying out...

What do you think we're doing with making it an option?

Somebody give avirex a hug.

Don't you guys have anything better to do? Let me just bring on the quote-o-meter and hop right into replying.

Quote from: avirex on August 28, 2010, 09:06 PM
crash is avoiding mm, he sez he does not want to play games with me? his excuse was suttin like "omg avi, u own too much" or suttin? i forget...

but, hes asking for clanners in AG to everyone, but is avoiding mm... no matter how often we ask him... hes trying to preserve his streak.. and thats gay.. he should be penalized

I guess he's only avoiding you then. Perhaps mm vs DoH should be played without crash? DoH has plenty of other players in their roster, so it shouldn't be that much of a problem to play them
At any rate, you should make up your mind, avi! Do you want crash banned or do you want to play with him? If it's the first, then crash has found the perfect solution so that you don't have to deal with him; don't play with him.

Quote from: ShyGuy on August 28, 2010, 09:08 PM
crash asking for clanners but won't play mm unless avi doesn't play, which leaves me and nino...

... and benz and Free and Mablak.
I'm sure you can manage

Also:

lol ban for what?

Probably for quotes like these:

Quote from: ZiPpO on August 28, 2010, 09:12 PMu guys drunk?

But we're not going to do it just cause avi asked for it anyway, as we said in that other thread.

Quote from: Komo on August 28, 2010, 09:32 PM
They just don't want to lose their precious points haha

They care too much lol !

You're not helping.

Quote from: ZiPpO on August 28, 2010, 09:38 PM
we dont play w2roper...inst allowed!

Actually, w2roper is allowed in TUS, but if you don't agree on w2roper, then you don't have to

Most of the other posts were quite frankly not worth the read except Ramone's post, who pretty much sums up what's wrong with this thread.

You can't accuse crash and Zippo of being asshole while posting like that.




Well, you can, but nobody will take you seriously.

If they annoy you so much, why do you keep playing with them?
