Yoott: Hey guys look lets get this back on track here There was
some intended things designed to make this tournament more
complicated then your standard show up here, shoot there, collect
gold here style tournament. There were things from this end that
were on purpose to cause hardships and obstacles. There is also a
reason a prize was given out for 2 nights of play to just the
single teams and then a second prize for playing through week 2.
Now it went off far from perfect, most concerning team
pairings with teams that no showed. TBH and I will post it here ,
our avg in all tournaments no shows are around 5 % ... so that
was doubled and we kicked 10% .... This turned out to be too low
since a lot more teams no showed. This will be rectified in future
events with a much much longer qualifier round period which will
allow for more of those teams to root themselves out and be
removed. I apologize for this and it was noted right away and we
even pmed out to a lot of captains to gauge their wanting to
continue to participate. Adjustments were made to the rules
making it 4 x 4 that helped somewhat but without completely
starting over there really wasn't anyway to reseed all of the teams
, plus that would have been unfair to the teams that did connect
and start to train and figure it all out.. However all
of the above being said I am pretty sure if you look back some of
the instant negativity and anger was unjustified. Some of you were
flat out rude to the teams you were paired with calling them
names, in game, in forums, in their teamspeaks, I have seen
the pics and some of you have had nice vacations for your
actions. Honestly it's a bit ridiculous and
I wouldn't show up to play with you either if you did
that to me so some of the teams that answered me back that you guys
were so worried about said they would love to come back but wont
play with some of your teams because of your bad attitudes towards
them so some/not all of the no shows were by your own causing.
I have 3 confirmed that were no showing due to negativity
directed at them. I mean hell one of the teams asked
me flat out to please allow a roster change just so they made sure
more then one player would be there to help their partner team
out since the person being replaced was a no show and they didn't
want to not show up even though they were not as good and cost
their partners an extra player. That same team was flat out
directly badmouthed by their partners... nice right. I was glad to
see that team still showed tonight to do the right thing and play
with the partners that badmouthed them. Now here
is the deal - You had to deal with teams no showing, I will
take full responsibility for that (up to the point of the ones
caused by your negativity.) Teams size swapped to 4 v 4 to
help alleviate as much as possible - You had to deal with
pairing up with an unfamiliar team (by design) - You had to find a
way to communicate with that team even if they did not speak the
same language (by design) - You were awarded a gold prize
already if you did well enough week 1 to be in the top 50% (by
design as the teams would be basically folded in half) - Both
halves would have to work together to earn a second prize at the
end of week two (by design) - It was intentionally not shared about
the pairings so that teams would not complain about rigging of
teams that could field multiple teams throwing matches to get a
chance to partner up together (by design)
