[Complete] The Grand Tag! 2v2 Tournament - 4th edition

[TheBlackThunderX9]

Whoo! One day to go! I can feel the tension in the atmosphere, I can feel the hellish, demonic flames bursting through the ground, I can feel the bravest warriors of mankind clashing against the fiercest demons, I can feel... My undead army wanting a raise in their payment.

Well! QeaPaco, if you are reading this, I will be waiting for you to come online since 8 am tomorrow :3 ( I do not want to be late for the occassion)

[Dunno]

I'm back! But just for two days, I'll have to leave again until September 7. Life is a pain. But the good news is, after September 7 I have unlimited amounts of free time
Anyway, I'll address the issues that came up:

The referees are:

I didn't announce neki here because I didn't get the final confirmation. No hard feelings, I hope

Slackers on-line are now moved to the reserve list and replaced by Apocalyptic Recreation.

AI's unit: I get the joke but rules are rules. Trust me, it will look better, I can't say how the ceremony will look like or I'd spoil the surprise so just trust me and choose a different unit, please

And time limit's updated, sry

I'll see you all tomorrow!

Tekelili, can you please make a nice introduction and announce the exact time once more for the opening ceremony ? I am sure some viewers forgot the time already, due to our incredibly fast paced tournament (slots get filled and only 2 weeks later we draw the groups).

Thanks,

neki

The Tournament will now enter the organisation week! Let me remind you to start setting up the games right away! Do not hesitate risking disqualification! The ASCII tournament table is now up to date, filled with paired up teams.
The organisation week will end, and round 1 will begin, on September 9.
That is all. Train hard and set up the dates or you'll drop out early!
Cheers,
Dunno and the TGT crew

Hello. Considering today's events, in particular, QeaPaco (my teammate) not showing up for the ceremony, I'd like to issue a reserve for him, just in case he does not show up for the first match aswell. The name of that player would be Bella. Her timezone is +5.30 GMT. I hope everyone doesn't mind.

[Dunno]

Ok, Bella is added as a reserve player for Apocalyptic Recreation team. Also, remember this rule:

- teams are FIXED, but IT'S POSSIBLE to get 1 substitute player if it's necessary to play out the round, altough in the finale games, substitutions are not allowed

So, you can play out one of the first round games with Bella as a substitute player if QeaPaco doesn't show up, and then play out the rest of the games with your original teammate.

Edit: just so we're clear, the subbing rule applies to just one game during one round. If your teammate doesn't show up at all, just kick him out.

[alpha1]

Well if he doesn't show up during the first round, i think it's safe to assume he won't show up in the subsequent rounds as well

[TheBlackThunderX9]

Well if he doesn't show up during the first round, i think it's safe to assume he won't show up in the subsequent rounds as well

I guess that's true enough...

Thank you all for attending the ceremony.

alpha: what are those weird units in the background of your instructional picture? You know wesnoth is at 1.10 right?

Question regarding the first round; if we find a time can we start before next Monday? In particular, it feels a shame to waste the weekend.

[Bella]

Ok, Bella is added as a reserve player for Apocalyptic Recreation team. Also, remember this rule:

- teams are FIXED, but IT'S POSSIBLE to get 1 substitute player if it's necessary to play out the round, altough in the finale games, substitutions are not allowed

Edit: just so we're clear, the subbing rule applies to just one game during one round. If your teammate doesn't show up at all, just kick him out.

So what happens if QeaPaco still doesn't show up in the subsequent rounds? Do I get to play permanently as thunder's teammate?

24h have passed and we're still waiting for any kind of reply from our 1st opponents. Starts well.
