I am sorry toughguy563... I mismanaged this tourney from the start and it lead us here with many hibernating players  

I thought u are also ignoring the matches like others so gave pepistos the bye but u are definitely following it so i reckon it will be unfair if we will exclude u..

I will ask pepistos to start games with u first and winner of ur games will proceed to play with lordonny..
And let me TELL u guys that every player involved in these games is as culprit as I am as rules says clearly that once ur opponent does not respond to start games then u hv to report the issue to host or in forum and nobody did it except pepistos  

Main mistake was mine that I did not monitor matches as i used to in past due to some personal issues and max games got delayed...

toughguy563 vs pepsitos match will hv ONLY 1 game and winner will advance to play lordonny

It will save time for other players in future rounds.

One thing I noticed is that in the loser bracket a 'deadline' is not posted as it is in the winner bracket... perhaps that would keep people on schedule more?
Another thought: perhaps it is possible that players can enter results one game at a time rather than only at the end of the match? Then if the deadline comes and players have not finished it is clear who is in the lead, and they would get to move on. If no games reported and no message from either players, then both players are eliminated and the opponent in the following round just gets a bye.
Again, thank you for all your work! If ppl aren't going to play their matches you can't be blamed for them!

Before the tournaments moved to Binary Beast, I was able to follow the tournament. I'm not sure why I am having a hard time with the Binary Beast sign. I miss being in the tournaments, but I'm going to have to stop participating. I wish the tournaments would move back to here, but I have no idea how complicated it is to run a tournament. So, I will gracefully bow out. Good luck everybody!

Hi, pepistos and I played one game and I won, so I will try to start playing lordonny... but on binarybeast the results were already recorded as 3-0 in favor of pepistos even though we only played one game. Neither of us entered that result. Is there a way I can overwrite it on binarybeast?

It´s all going nuts. I don´t even have to play someone. i just enter a result on bb and the shit hits the fan. I am out.

Why would you enter a result for games you have not played ?.

Just for getting an advance? BB doesn´t check ZE for real games. BB can´t as far is i can tell.
Example is above. toughguy defeated pepistos in a special gane. BB tells opposite.
Same happened to me. Had to play fatgammon and was in the games. Was outlined as the loser before the games ended. bullshit.
but wtf, i´m out
no regreats.
have fun.

I don't have a problem with binarybeast. I think these tournaments are a great alternative to the endless ZE tournaments and I think binarybeast is a good tool for how to keep track of them. I'm sure my case was an innocent mistake... lots of matches in T10 had to be edited by the moderators since so many players stopped playing.

Kindly read my previous posts for ur clarification...u guys were supposed to complete ur games in round 2 almost 1 month ago  

u guys did not bother to report ur games of initial rounds when other reached in the final stages then admins had to do something. so we gave byes and discarded those matches..


And i strongly believe its fair as we hv mentioned hundreds time that if u find any problem in completing ur matches within 1 week then kindly report to host or in the forum...
And none of guys from those discarded games ever reported anything. So I am sorry to do that...

@toughguy
Dont worry about BB sheet just complete ur games with lordonny, I hv asked him already...when u guys finish then kindly let me know the result via personal msg. Thanks
