Randbats Gen 9 Random Doubles Battle Open - Round 2

Not open for further replies.
Kinda wanna fight this act. It’s my bad that I got the time conversion flipped, but I did ask twice in our convo if I had the timing right in terms of how many hours away the battle was. I genuinely thought we were playing later, so I’d like to reschedule and get the games played if possible.
1. You have no grounds to fight the act. You suggested a time, I agreed to it. It's not my responsibility to ensure someone who has been on this site playing tournaments for years understands how time zones work. I didn't even see your last message until the match and the one before it I didn't bother to check your math for you because why would I? It wasn't even phrased as a question. It would be one thing if this was your first tourney ever but it is not.

2. I take an addictive as needed anti-anxiety drug right before these matches, that I try not to take very often for obvious reasons. I was already hitting them hard af during WCOR and I would really not like to take 2 this week because you missed our match.

3. Even despite all that, and despite the fact that I decided at the end of last year that i wasn't going to do reschedules anymore because so many people requested them, and it's really annoying to schedule your day around a match that doesn't happen, and I've never asked for one myself, (and I always lose the reschedule) I still maybe would have done it anyway because I felt bad about your mistake, but the fact your approach here was to try to "fight the act" rather than just apologize and ask nicely for a reschedule makes me disinclined.

I wasn’t trying to blame you or say you did anything wrong. “Fight the act” was probably poor wording on my part. I know the timezone mistake was mine, I just wanted to explain that I’d asked about the timing twice because that’s genuinely why I thought we were playing later. I’d still prefer to play the set if you’re willing to reschedule, but otherwise I’ll leave the activity decision to the hosts
