Tourney Delays
Posted: Mon Nov 20, 2017 8:29 pm
Hey, everyone.
I had mentioned in this thread that the deadline for that quarterfinal matches that began two months ago on September 19th was November 20th. Sadly, at this point in time, most of the quarterfinal matches are on the brink of going to page 4. So perhaps the allotted 2 months was a little too optimistic. However, we're waiting on the finals or at the very least semifinals before we can start our "We Are LAW" ppv (discussed in this thread). So it would be in our best interest to try and keep things moving.
Therefore, I propose an extension of 2-3 weeks (let me know if 3 weeks are preferable to 2) and in that time, I'd like for everyone to try to wrap up their quarterfinal matches. Rush the finish and end the match early if you have to, find time to do a large chunk of it or finish it via IM, etc. Do what you need to as long as you get it done in time. After that extension, I'll look to end the matches or resolve them by looking into options such as asking certain match ups to end in a draw or having the inactive users drop from the tourney. Navi Forges vs Gabriella Guerrero would be given an additional couple weeks or so since it started after all the other quarterfinal matches, but the overall goal is still to get this round done sooner rather than later.
I hope this doesn't sound too strict or stern. I still very much appreciate everyone's participation in the event. And I hope that everyone's enjoyed it in some capacity. I definitely have
