Go10 out, CBTerrakion in

zdrup15 · Feb 2nd, 2013, 8:19:51 AM

I'm sorry Dubby but this is ridiculous.

I tried to get a battle done with Go10 for two weeks, PMed him on IRC many times, posted here saying he was johning me (and his other opponents too) on purpose and you didn't do a thing. Instead you gave Deluks the activity win last week. And now I have to face a sub?

It's already bad enough that the two people that can pass me have 2/4 and 2/3 wins thanks to activity when I have 0/5 to activity (against the same opponents) but now this is too much.

also, how exactly are the 'top 2' players decided, when 3 or more players in the group have the same amount of points? as in 3 or 4 top scores?

• The first and only tiebreaker between divisional opponents will be Head to Head matchup.

First of all, why would you expect me to hand you an activity win for a Week 4 matchup when Week 4's deadline had not even come up yet? I understand that it is the only game you have left to play, but giving an activity win for Week 4 when it's Week 3 is ridiculous.

Second of all, if you read post #279, you would know that activity wins are not permanent, and that subs can make up activity losses that the player they subbed in for was responsible for. So while Coupe de Boule and Deluks did receive activity wins against Go10, they are not permanent because CBTerrakion has until the end of the regular season to make up those games.

I don't get why you are so upset. Yes the deadline for Week 4 is tomorrow, so I would be happy to extend the deadline for the match between you and CBTerrakion since he was subbed in so close to the deadline, but next time don't expect me to hand an activity win for a future week's matchup.

I don't know why you say I want an activity win when we're not even past the deadline. What I'm saying is that there should be a rule applied to all and this isn't the case imo.

Is there any downside for the players that have already received activity wins to refuse to play those matches? Because I thought they were final decisions. Can they lose their matches if they refuse to play? If they aren't final decisions, I'm cool with it but how are you going to control if they're being done? Are you monitoring activity of matches whose activity you decided on last week? I don't get it.

Oh well, if you're saying everyone will have to do their battles even if they already have the activity wins, then I apologize for my post but you have to admit that it's very confusing that activity wins can be reversed.

This rule is meant to give substitute players a fair chance. If a player subs in for someone who was 0-4 with 3 activity losses, it will be very difficult if not impossible to recover enough to make the playoffs unless this rule is in place.

In regards to monitoring, I don't necessarily need to monitor, because it's up to the substitute player to play the matches or not. They have until the end of the regular season to get those matches done, otherwise the activity win stands. If a player refuses to play a match against a substitute because they want to keep their activity win, then I would remind them of the rules, and if they still refuse, then yes they could have their activity win taken away.

Sorry if it's confusing, but the rule is meant to give substitute players a fighting chance at the playoffs.

6A9 Ace Matador · Feb 2nd, 2013, 3:08:47 PM

crit that killed my main threat, a miss that stopped me sweeping, and a final crit to stop me winning.

GG moet!

Dubby · Feb 2nd, 2013, 3:09:58 PM

Btw, I will try to replace xtrashine as soon as possible, which means his two forfeit losses will not be permanent.
