yiannakos demanded an apology and I am only happy to give one.

I admit that I have a low tolerance for plasmon's false accusations as well as yiannakos's and Bonne Chance's threats and narcissism.

This being a forum I decided to use it as intended and voice my opinion on the matter. For the most part I tried being as respectful as possible and I have no regret for anything I've said,. Evidently that bruised some people's egos.

I consider the matter personal, between myself and 2/3 of our hosts and I never dragged anyone else into this conversation. However I would like to offer my most sincere apologies to all other participants for the effects this might have had on their experience in the NT.

Like I wrote on page 4 of this Forum, I really do not understand what was wrong with my message on the friendly spirit and once again, I do not understand what was offensive when I wrote: shouldn’t we unite instead of disintegrate ?

One of my favorite quotes in life is by Martin Luther King:
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

Well done Hari !

I don't know why we dragged this discussion in NT9 and ended up losing our very good scorer...I would request bonne to come back and start this again, I remember he started scoring in start for NT and other tourneys and I used to invite players..we had a very good time..
Dear, don't be angry and continue ur work...i reckon many would be there to appreciate u...


I also used to complain in start about NT pace but host puts a lot of effort in it so we don't have any right to complain and criticize him again and again... having said that lets end this debate and continue playing BG...
Thanks to host, scorer and ricetta for their efforts

You and Ricetta are doing a good Job. The outrageous, disrespectful misbehaviour of this entitled troll calling himself "xapko87" is not reflecting the opinion of the majority of the silent participants of this tournament, who appreciate your work. Since Bulgarian team does not seem to be willing to discipline the disrespectful misbehaviour of one of their members toward you and the community, who keeps trolling, making wrong accusations, spreading lies, dragging others into senseless discussions with him and believes the whole tournament has to be changed as this pathetic troll wishes, it might be worth considering to sanction him yourself for the sake of the tournament. You have our support with regard to your decision.

I don't think Bulgarian team has any fault here and u can not blame others for one person's actions...not fair
Bulgaria is one of very good team in NT...they were the dark horse when they entered in NT

And 2ndly i think xapko has apologized so be a bigger person and accept it.. let it be by gone
End this issue and move further and play NT9 happily. ....if we drag this further then there would be no result other than bitter words and NT being scattered so forget the past and move on pz

So I request everyone to not comment on this issue further. Thanks

Plasmon, are you ok?
I look forward to your apology for the insult to my team. I am a woman and a mother and I do not allow you to attack my teammates!!!
To make it easier for you - you can do it in private message(PM).
YOU started this meaningless discuss and provoked this an avalanche of negativism.
Note: I sent you PM to explain me your first post.
No reply. You prefer presentation to an audience .... but the forum is public place for opinions, suggestions, ideas... First time this place looks like arena!

I wonder why hosts don't understand this right.

Honestly - I do not enjoy my presence here.
I feel ashamed reading the attacks and explanations of older people.
I feel "toxic" air around (how right noticed one of us).
I feel totally disappointed.

"Let's finish this tournament in the best possible way" is my previous post, that no one of hosts comment. It is high time for one of the them tell us if there is a tournament or not. Y/N?

Everyone can scroll back and verify, I never started any discussion with any member of Bulgarian team. I put some of these trolls on my ignore list, so they tried several times to misuse NT9 forum and drag me into a meaningless discussion with them by either referring to me or directing to me in this forum. They continued it even after the warning of hosts by ignoring their warning. I ignored this team at the beginning, as any troll should be ignored, yet they continue this trolling by making misleading and wrong claims. Btw. conducting personal attacks toward someone in forum, after he ignored you, and ask for a private conversation after he eventually answered you in forum, which you misused several times for your wrong claims and personal references, is called hypocrisy. A pathetic wrong apology of one of their members (xapko87), misusing his pseudo apology to attack again and make wrong claims toward hosts and me

"I admit that I have a low tolerance for plasmon's false accusations as well as yiannakos's and Bonne Chance's threats and narcissism. "

which has been supported by their captain, shows the whole team has issues regarding trolling and spreading lies.

I neither see any reason nor have the time of discussing anything with a team of trolls, which lack basic understanding of logics and have obviously too much time. I keep ignoring this team, unless they exaggerate again with spreading wrong claims and trolling.

@Bulgarian team stop trolling and contacting me. You may have the need talking to me, but I do not care about answering you.

@Hosts It is your decision, how to deal with this team, after your first try (Bonne Chance demand for stopping the discussion in the result forum) has been directly ignored by Bulgarian team already and continued over here.

I hope you understand that this bickering is "small potatoes".
We have lost the services of someone who has put in a lot of good work over the years: Bonne Chance. I understand his decision and I support him 100%.
Without him, NT9 is pretty much over. I can't update his score sheet not having the software etc.
Why don't you send him a pm and tell him how much you appreciate his work and Bonne Chance as a person? Why don't you ask him to reconsider? Why don't you show him some support? The man has been battling cancer for a few years now. Why don't you tell him you'll be praying for him... and mean it?
And please: don't say he's "narcissistic". He is not.
