Or even sometime later today? I’m not too busy

Sorry if I seem desperate

Unfortunately not as it is Friday for me right now

Ahhhh duck

So I guess you aren’t available anytime soon? I suppose that’s a coin toss then. Sorry again, and good luck on the rest of the tournament!

I really am not outside of unreasonable times for you (e.g. this afternoon in my timezone). I have requested for an activity win because you were radio silent for the bulk of the week before showing up to schedule with me on such short notice. Feel free to contest this request, and best of luck in the tournament either way!

Fair enough

You cannot go over half of the week (over four full days for Slowpoke Fan and over 3 and a half for you) without contacting your opponent. The scheduling guidelines say you need to respond within a day typically.

With this in mind, Slowpoke Fan also really messed up because in his initial message. He did not reveal any times he could play and the guidelines make it clear you need to propose two times at least 24 hours apart that are 48 hours after contact. Messaging someone and just asking when they can play without providing times is silly.

He did reach out Monday and he did not say anything about not being able to play weekend + he did not actually say any times during your last interaction -- just that the times were unreasonable for you. You do not actually qualify for activity without proposing a time.

As such, Slowpoke Fan needs to propose a time, even if it is unreasonable for you or something you cannot make. Then it is up to you as to if you can make it or wish to give him the win, but the ball is in your court to make it or decide that as you did not respond for 4 days and the onus is on him to provide some actual time given that he still has not.

I want to try and still complete my matches if possible (I’m not sure if I’m interpreting the last msg right) but if it truly is unable to be completed, then I do not mind. Still want to try though.

I apologise for not offering a time - I can play at 4:30 am EST on Friday (so in 3 hours and 7 minutes).

I can also play at 4am EST on Saturday considering that the time I offered today is on such short notice.

Uhm Saturday I guess? But I might’ve missed that bc I had to sleep. Idk, time zones are weird.

Yeah I offered the timeslot on Saturday because I realised that you were probably sleeping. Both of the posts were made in your timezone by the way, so we would play at 4am on Saturday for you

Yay! That’ll be an early time to wake up but I’ll make sure to be up by that time! (My dad maybe won’t like it but honestly if this is the time that works then this is the time that works)

See you on Saturday then! I'm sorry about this, hope you don't get into trouble with your father

See you! And don’t worry, even if he does find out he won’t be too mad because it’s a weekend and I don’t have much to do.
