Sorry, no activity wins are given.

and Erz

It's best to forget about last week because this week's pairings depend on it.

you can signup for midweek.

WTF, so it means if my opp decides to not answer me I'm not gonna have a single chance of winning the match? That makes no sense lol.

Edit: Won BW against Baku, gg.

It makes sense because hosts have limited time and willpower, and can't manage something that's harder to do than a 512 man tournament first round every single week. Week 1 (265 matches, 6 tiers); Week 2 (246 matches, 6 tiers, 3 categories). I reckon you need some exceptional mental management skills to add the burden of checking activity in all unplayed matches for this tournament and not let it get in a mess. There's a limit to how much you can worry to do things you don't feel like doing before you will feel physically insecure (part of fight-or-flight response). It'd be great to have a team that could achieve a lot together but co-ordinating such a thing is not easy.

Right now, you get the equivalent if a point in a tier for winning your battle.

Guess I can understand your position, thanks for explaining!
