This is the network that's being used by everyone in the tournament. It's for tournament participants only so that it doesn't fill up and we can all find each other anytime we're online.

Group = Online Redemption
Password = 2009

I challenge raven.

you can't challenge be cause it's against the rules to challenge someone whose above 3 spots

Quote from: soul seeker on September 18, 2008, 10:48:29 AM

Who to Challenge:
1. You may only challenge someone, who is no more than 3 spots beneath you or 4 if you are in a positional tie with someone (but no upper limit).

see?

Andy, did you read what you posted?

It seems to me you are contradicting yourself. The rules say there is NO upper limit, but a 3 LOWER limit.

I can't find the standings (link someone?), but it seems that challenge is totally valid.

New Raven BR · « **Reply #656 on:** January 07, 2009, 10:55:51 AM »

when soul seeker edits i'll be below sauce and 5 spots below jani.
i mean count the spots and you'll see.
that empty spot below sauce is where i am

soul seeker · « **Reply #657 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:09:42 AM »

actually, the first week doesn't count for that. There are no official "rankings" (which also means no bonus points) during the first week. I just leave it leftover from the previous tourney and add new players on the bottom.

Plus, so everyone has an equal shot at a FSPromo. You can challenge more than three down if everyone around you is maxed out on games.

New Raven BR · « **Reply #658 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:10:44 AM »

well that doesn't sound fair

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #659 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:20:10 AM »

Do you accept?

soul seeker · « **Reply #660 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:20:19 AM »

it's very fair....everyone starts with a clean slate.
What I don't think is fair is a new player (for example: RED or Gabe or Sauce) jump on and in the first week beat last month's three winners and get max bonus points and be way out in front. It's better if everyone starts from a clean slate and work it out during the first week.

Plus, if I'm not mistaken...Jannissary finished last place last month, so by your reasoning: he can challenge anyone.

Either way, it is legal for Jannissary to challenge you.

What exactly doesn't sound fair to you, Andy? It seems to me like soul seeker has gone to great lengths to make things very fair for everyone.

this is how it doesn't sound fair
and to let everyone know i'm a bug about what's fair and what's not

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #663 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:31:00 AM »

It is fair. That's how the rules are setup. And I was last place last month anyway...

When you go to a tournament in real life and nobody is ranked to start the tournament and you're randomly paired against another player - is that fair?

New Raven BR · « **Reply #665 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:35:09 AM »

it's fair but only so the host can decide who'll face who in the first round

soul seeker · « **Reply #666 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:36:38 AM »

the first week does that: it will decide in weeks 2-8 who can face each other.

New Raven BR · « **Reply #667 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:38:38 AM »

OH!!!!
now i get it!
now it sounds fair

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #668 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:40:01 AM »

I'll be on in about 4 hours to play if thatsvood for you andy.

New Raven BR · « **Reply #669 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:45:01 AM »

can i play red first to get me warmed up before our match, jani?

soul seeker · « **Reply #670 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:47:37 AM »

Why not play now and get it out of the way? It will keep scheduling conflicts from happening later and "ghost" points.

for one jani isn't on and i figure it'd be a good idea to warm up by me and red playing our game just before i play my game with jani and warming up is always a good thing even in exercising

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #672 on:** January 07, 2009, 11:59:16 AM »

Ill just check with you when I get on hamachi. I'm at school right now so it will be a couple hours, like I said. Just giving you a heads up.

Red conceded our game after running out of Heroes.
