GS2: The Turtle--The Further Rounds

[meat.eater]

If your name is not on the list below, you have been disqualified due to inability to play games. Fortunately, not many of you fall into this category. Also fortunately, most of the people who have been having activity/finding game problems have been eliminated. I suspect it will be smooth[er] sailing from here.

http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/7876/bracketsjx7.jpg

Because the rounds are so blurred now (losers play 2 games for a winners 1), there will be no round-specific time limit. Instead, I simply want people playing their next alloted game every 5 days. So it's done on a personal basis, not round basis.

DQ's will remain in my jurisdiction. As long as you stay in communication with me and your opponent, you should be fine. If you were DQ'd when moving into this round, do not post discontentment here, please send me a PM and we'll talk about it.

[Lord Shinok]

So I'm playing the winner of Rubbish/Lord Honky. Nice. :)

[Lieutenant]

Go Rubby!

xEaglex, I want to get my game in as fast as possible. PM me, or post your times here, and tell me what time zone you are.

Thanks!

[meat.eater]

Correct, Shinok.

Also, just saw the Battle Report of Imag/Maverik. I'll update that soon. Everything else should be about where we are. We have a month to go through 30 games. I think we're fine. If we go over a bit, we're also fine.

[Rubbish]

Well I believe I already exceeded expectations on this tournament, lets see if I can do more :p.
Meat, I have one question, to be in the top 8 I'd have to win 3 more games?

[Master TAO]

pm to prof:

im available to play our game on central standard time everyday this week after 3 pm.

[meat.eater]

Rubbish: Correct.

[Lord Shinok]

Rubbish, Lord Honky is on rev. Go play him! :p

[meat.eater]

Your avatar makes me sad about life.

[Lord Shinok]

Why? Heath Ledger is my hero!

[Lieutenant]

Your avatar might suck... but your signature rocks. Although the motto it says is not true....


Lol "Netjak.com, Where the Party is..." ... my balls. :p

[Lieutenant]

Well, I'm out folks... I see there's loads of games going on. My game goes tomorrow! :)

[imagination]

not to be a pest or anything but i think you screwed up the brackets. hoolwath legend z game shouldbe under the prof master tao game because the loser of the hool game falls down into my game from next ... not master tao.

[allstarGL]

Sorry for holding things up, I just got too busy. Goodluck everyone left.

[Lord Shinok]

Who am I playing next?

[allstarGL]

I think the loser of wack and abhi, but Im not 100% sure.

[Lord Shinok]

Alright, sweet. Thanks. I beat dfp before. :)

[Master TAO]

just noticed that and checked the old brackets, i think you are right imagination, but its a simple typo that meat can easily fix

[abhimanu]

i have pm'ed, posted and everything to get wack's attention. i was off by a half hour in our appointment and pmed him two days ago with that correction. he has not responded and may be unaware of the slight half hour change i requested. i don't know how to contact him besides pm and posting because i rarely see him on the servers

[Lord Shinok]

Abhimanu, you can still try to play Wack. Neither of you got d/q'ed yet.

[WaCk-HeAd]

I PM'ed you back. We're supposed to meet in 10 hours.

[-Dape-]

I don't understand how the losers bracket works, do i have to play TGM, slayer and deto?

Or 2 of the 3? :confused:

[Detonation]

I don't understand how the losers bracket works, do i have to play TGM, slayer and deto?

Or 2 of the 3? :confused:

No, its easy, you have to play TGM, the winner between you and TGM will play the winner between me and slayer.

[WaCk-HeAd]

Edit: Listen to deto, my hangover is bigger than I thought

[bludhoundz]

I'm matched up with Graphics again?

:dry:

We didn't even get to play the first time.

[The Gold Master]

TGM vs Dape
Winner: TGM
S/S if required

Started off same side both with back row turtles dape with furgon and lighting ward so initially though it would be tricky but advanced quickly and had some good wisp action which made him lose cleric and he then literally was picked off and surrendered.

Well played Dape gg.

thanks

[Magician]

Nice work there TGM. :)

[WaCk-HeAd]

I'll be home ready to play our game Abihamungauhga (can't remember your name), so you can PM whenever you get on.

[Lord Shinok]

Abhimanu. I had to practice memorizing his name for awhile. :p

[~ElVeN~BlOoD~]

so me and lost.boy are d/q'd?
the winner of us was supposed to play dape...
me and lost.boy were just getting our game in...
damn

[Lost.Boy]

and I had you beat =\.

[WaCk-HeAd]

We're playing right now.

I have to play Abhimanu again? Bleh.

PM sent to Abhimanu:

Looks like we have to play again.

/sigh

Anyway, I'm free anytime, since I'm not in school anymore and I'm looking for a full-time job. Until then, I'm free anytime, any day. By the way, I'm GMT -6 (Central).

[Rubbish]

Good game Lord White.
Sorry I hadn't posted but I've been busy & with little time to play TAO.
Good Luck to Wack-Head & Magician, I hope one of you guys win this :).

[WaCk-HeAd]

I have to play Abhimanu again? Bleh.

PM sent to Abhimanu:

What's wrong with getting a rematch? Especially since you wanted one.

I've seen everyone complaining since the start of the tournament because they were getting to play the guy who beat them last time.

I'd be thrilled.

[Lord Shinok]

I already got my rematch yesterday. Too bad it won't count, though. :)

[Lieutenant]

Ok, Eagle already PM'ed me, I think we could get our game now. Seeing as he could play at this time.

I had all the advantage to win this game but I almost threw it away, gg Bludz and thanks for being a good sport.

Wack and I are due to play next wensday, 11pm my time, 12midnight his.

[xEaglex]

Ok, Eagle already PM'ed me, I think we could get our game now. Seeing as he could play at this time.

I gave you at least 20 hours of open windows of availability on each day.

You can't just show up during them without saying anything. You have to PM me back you stupidface :P

[Lieutenant]

If you can, we should play now. =)

[I'malive24/7]

Hold on Lieu, I should be your opponent, and I pm'd meat about it, but i don't want his excuse to be "well, lieu already played"...

[Magician]

I think because you adn allstar took so long to get your game in, both of you were DQ'd

[xEaglex]

xEaglex vs. Lieutenant

xEaglex wins.

He tried to side hit each of my scouts, which resulted in me getting two side blocks. From then on he complained for the rest of them game, telling me to shut up (after I said "karma!" after he got a 10% knight side block) and mouthing me off.

Disappointed in the attitude. Thought someone as good as you would have some class. Yeah I got luck with those scouts, does that justifies mouthing me off? I can't control that and it's not like I'm even denying the luck, you jerk.

Glad to see you gone.

[I'malive24/7]

I think because you adn allstar took so long to get your game in, both of you were DQ'd

Actually, allstar missed our set time...

[Lieutenant]

Lieutenant vs xEaglex
Winner: xEaglex
Comments: Luck outplayed me.

[Dream]

Nice win Eagle.

[xEaglex]

Actually, allstar missed our set time...


Wasn't that "time" already after having more than a week to play?

I dunno the details, but there is no way I'm going to have to go about playing again...

[I'malive24/7]

Nah, it was the first round that allstar and I couldn't play. This time, we set a time that was 3 days after the end of the previous round.

[Lieutenant]

Meh, best regards to Wack-head or Magician in the tournament. :)

EDIT 1: I'ma, you're kinda really late. If you look at the other thread, round 4 was supposed to be ended like a week ago. But that's for winners round, not losers. :/

I can pull out some more times after that if need be. Just let me know whats going on with you.

Lawl. I would talk shit if luck was screwing me over in my important games. I'm well known for my piss poor attitude when it comes to losing and I don't care! Muwahahaha! :p

I didn't really notice anything bad in SAAT. :huh:

I didn't really notice anything bad in SAAT. :huh:

There weren't any extreme luck in our 2 games.

True, true. :)

Thanks Shinok, welcome to my world. :)

[trugreatness20]

Gooooo Eagle for the win!

[xEaglex]

xEaglex vs. Imagination

Imagination wins.

Opp side game. He got first turn and went on the offensive and hit my dragon twice consecutively, forcing me to defend. He played the ensuing attack perfectly. I made a pretty sick frost move, but it was not enough to save me since he did not slip up once. Very close game.

Good luck Imag, and well played.

[imagination]

imagination vr xeaglex
winner: imagination
comments: was an amazing game. basically no mistakes on either side. i got lucky with first turn (was opp sides with identical sets). i then got a lucky front shot on his drag after a side shot on his drag. he retreated it in. this allowed me to go in and quake as i was advancing my mud as well (he quaked first but didnt have any backup because of the retreat and so i froze it, maybe only mistake he made was deviding his forces). i then traded my mud for his scout and wisp. then i got my wisp into play and got his cleric frost for wisp scout. i got his other scout by dragon and began retreating to regroup. as of now its stone drag kngiht vr my cleric stone drag knight scout frost. he got my dragon before he surrendered. amazing game
s/s: honor system

[xEaglex]

The mud was no mistake I'm certain. I had to send in the mud alone to destone, since I was going to be playing defensive no matter what after you hit my dragon twice to start. If I didn't send the mud on that suicidal destoning, you'd be offensive AND be stoned.

But yeah, I love the feeling of coming out of game where both players played pretty much perfectly. You're a monster :P

[imagination]

thanks man ... best game i have had in awile

See, that's karma ! xEaglex beat me with luck, apparently he was forced to defend cos of luck. That's the way I like it. :)

[Lord Shinok]

Abhimanu and I ran in each other on Rev earlier and talked. He said he will PM when he can play me.

[Graphics]

Shinny I can see you taking this tourney all the way, don't make me feel stupid now for banking on your turt skills!

[Lord Shinok]

I'm going to try my best. :)

[trugreatness20]

Gooooo Shinok for the win!!!! I gotta support my Army brother from another mother. :D

Edit: Dont let my ass down -_-

[Lord Shinok]

Thanks for putting some pressure on me. :dry:

Hehe.

[abhimanu]

No one is repping the underdog? Danngg...

I pm'ed shinny.

[Magician]

Don't want to put too much pressure on you now, do we? ;)

[Lord Shinok]

Abhimanu, I wouldn't think you're the underdog. You won the "Shadowbeast" award. :p

Anyhow, I replied to your PM:

sundizzle? i can probably do 1pm to 7pm est.

tell me if that works for you

good luck shinny

abhi

Yes, that I can do. But, let's have at least one specific time we can meet at to prevent any kinds of conflict, eh? Let's say 5 PM Est? Yes, on Sunday. ;)

[Master TAO]

anyone seen justice or sniper around?

[Lord Shinok]

I've seen Sniper on rev everyday, but never seen Justice.

[Master TAO]

was just wondering, graphics was trying to play me last night until i told him he had to play the winner of those two first.

[Sniper Master]

We were supposed to play 10 minutes ago but I see no signs of Justice...

[Hoolwath]

Well, I am not sure about Legend-Z's activitiy level. I have been trying to reach him for 2 weeks now. He came on once and told me to be online tomorrow "his time" but when I found the PM it was already "yesterday". So, I am sending him another PM, but I am not very positive the game will get done.

[Magician]

WaCk and I are due to play Wednesday, 11pm my time. :)

[WaCk-HeAd]

I have some bad news :)

I have a party from 7 till 9 I think with free beer. I hope I'm in a condition to come here and play, but we might have to reschedule. I don't think that's a problem since we're ahead of the rest.

[Magician]

:eek:

Well, drunken Wack > sober Wack.

I just hope you're not stoned too. :p

[Lord Shinok]

Man, abhimanu just told me to meet on Sunday morning instead of afternoon. I told him I had planned to sleep in late, since I will be partying all night on Saturday. Anyway, he had yet to PM me back to confirm our previous schedule to play at 5 PM EST. Here's my PM I just sent to him:
Can't we play today or tomorrow? I planned on sleeping late Sunday morning because I'll be partying all night on Saturday...

I've been free almost 24/7 everyday this week. I just don't want to play TAO on Saturday and Sunday morning while I'm sleeping off my hangovers. :dry:

EDIT:
Abhimanu finally replied.
Can't we play today or tomorrow? I planned on sleeping late Sunday morning because I'll be partying all night on Saturday...

I Kinda gotta make a 45 minute mixtape by saturday night, of which like 3 minutes is done... so i can't prolly play til then.

sunday 2pm? sound good?

gl
abhi

Yeah, 2pm EST, right? I'll be seeing you then. Lata

[meat.eater]

Bump.

[Hoolwath]

I PMed Legend Z today again.

[Lord Shinok]

Abhimanu and I are supposed to play in like 3 minutes. I'll be on Rev waiting for him.

EDIT: I just got disconnected from my internet. Now I'm worried if I will get d/c'ed in the game with Abhimanu. *sigh*

EDIT2: Okay. Apparently, I'm not in a good mood today due to my hangover. Abhimanu logged on, but he said he is going to play someone else for the different tourney. I told him I wasn't going to wait for him. We were supposed to play 2PM EST. It is very rude to set up a scheduled game with someone, then make them wait past the scheduled match. He said wait 20 minutes max. But, still. I'm really pissy today. Sorry. I don't care if I get d/q'ed. Peace.

[abhimanu]

i am on and looking for shinny? can't find him. i really wanna play it, not dq crap, so if you're there, please get on and play.

i do apologize. life is bit hectic, and i'm trying to arrange everything. i didn't mean to schedule em both at once, but stuff happens.

[Lord Shinok]

I want to play our game as well. But, it's your fault for not playing me on our scheduled time. Now give me another time that you can be on and do NOT play anyone during that time. I'm not going to wait again.

[Mithrandir]

I think it's rude to make Shinok wait but seriously, come on, 20 minutes? That is simply not THAT big a deal, lighten up.

[Lord Shinok]

You wouldn't lighten up if you had a bad hangover...

The last time I had to wait 45 minutes for Abhimanu for our tourney game. Think I'm gonna do that again? No.

[Mithrandir]

Shinok, your hangover is your problem. I never get hangovers, so I'm not overly moody randomly (for that reason anyway). Blame Abhimanu for being twenty minutes late, which is disrespectful and rude. But there is such a thing as an appropriate level of annoyance and flipping out and refusing to play at all because you're in such a "bad mood" is childish. My humble opinion.

[Lord Shinok]

Okay, whatever.

EDIT: I just sent a PM to Abhimanu to reschedule our game.

[abhimanu]

i'm on rev, trying to schedule with shinny, he hasn't responded. i gtg in a sec. i apologize for making you wait. i'm sorry and it was an accident. i wasn't aware that you had to wait earlier? if you have msn or aim, maybe i can contact you via that? thanks

edit: we're trying to do this in 2 horus and 49 minutes. 8pm est.

[Lord Shinok]

Yeah, I'm downloading MSN as I'm typing. My msn e-mail is gmpsuperdude@hotmail.com

No, I didn't just make that e-mail. :dry: I've had it for over 5 years.

[Hoolwath]

Don't be ashamed, dude. Super dude.

[Lord Shinok]

:p

Well, I stopped downloading msn. It was taking forever and made my internet a lot slower. Frickin' dial-up.

Abhimanu, just PM me whenever you get back.

Slayer and I will be playing in a few hours.

[Hoolwath]

It seems like Legend Z lost interest in this or something. He replied to my PM with times I should catch him on "GL or Army if not Rev". They are really late for me, but I will try. Atleast he replied.

[Master TAO]

did sniper and justice play yet?

[Lord Shinok]

I don't think so.

[Lord Shinok]

/bump

Sorry for double post, but meat...could you please update the brackets and d/q the inactive players?

[meat.eater]

I think you're probably the most impatient person in TAO history. Absolutely nothing caters to how fast you want things to go. Please understand that. :)

Has anyone heard from, seen or talked to Justice/Sniper master in the last week or so?

[Magician]

Not heard from either of them.

Wack and I are due to play tomorrow, btw. Just reminding you. :p

[Lord Shinok]

I've never seen nor heard from Justice, but I've seen Sniper on Rev almost everyday. And yes, I know I'm impatient. :p

[Lieutenant]

I'll 2nd that motion. ;)

I guess I'm the 2nd most impatient TAO player then. :)

meat, please dont let this die, dq inactives

[WaCk-HeAd]

Mag and I are still on for tonight.

[Magician]

Oh, good. :)

Can't wait. ;)

[powza]

When do you play?

[WaCk-HeAd]

Tonight around 11/12 PM.

[Lord Shinok]

Time zone?

[Magician]

in about 20minutes.

[Lord Shinok]

I'm excited to hear the result. Good to you and wack. :)

[Magician]

Aite, tis playing time. Waiting for wack.

Edit: Aite, I've been waiting for a bit over 30mins. I'm outs for now, gonna get something to eat, and probably hit the sack as I've got work early tomorrow morning.

[Lord Shinok]

Man. This blows.

*waits patiently for the brackets to get updated*

[meat.eater]

Man. This blows.

*waits patiently for the brackets to get updated*

There have been a grand total of 3 games played since I last updated the brackets. Are you incapable of looking at the bracket and knowing who moved on without it being in pristine shape? I'm not neglecting the brackets, Shinok, but your level of standards is extremely high. No, I will not update the brackets after every game. I'm pretty content with updating the bracket at the mid-point and end of the round (which means twice total). Deal with it. Your life is not even close to being ruined. Updating the brackets does not keep a tournament from going.

I said at the beginning of this round that there is no pre-determined day set for matches. I get the feeling Legend Z and Hool are still trying to play their game, judging by Hool's post. Sniper and Justice I know nothing about. Thats why I asked about it. But no, I'm not giving up on them yet. I'm sorry you disagree.

You need to stop talking about the progress of the tournament and just worry about yourself. We have until mid-may to finish the tournament. We're still ahead of schedule. I'm serious, Shinok. I don't want to see another "hurry up" post. It's incredibly obnoxious.

[Lord Shinok]

Owch.

I'll stop my whining then. :)

[WaCk-HeAd]

Aite, tis playing time. Waiting for wack.

I suck. I planned on not drinking and getting out of that party by 9 PM.

(...)

I just got home, I'm pretty wasted and it's 4 AM.

Oops?

:)

Hopefully we can arrange something quick. I'll PM you tomorrow.

[Lord Shinok]

Drinking and partying > TAO ;)

Same time on Saturday? Sunday afternoon works too, but I'll be away by 3pm your time. Depends how big that hangover of yours is gonna be on Sunday. :p

[WaCk-HeAd]

Probably not that big, but I'll try to get on at Saturday. Though I'm going to train for 6 hours or so on saturday afternoon, I'm not sure how braindead I'll be. If that won't work, we'll play on Sunday.

Thanks for being so ehh... flexible.

NOOB!!!!!!!!!!

[Lord Shinok]

Dudeuuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeee

[Magician]

Man in kilt = Sex on legs. :wink2:

[Hoolwath]

Well, another week passed, I still know nothing about Legend Z's further actions. I could go ahead and PM him for the 5th time with the exact same info and wait another three days for his reply, not answering either of my time zones questions again, or I could start setting up with Prof.

Your call, Meat.

[Lieutenant]

Isn't that supposed to be like DQ already? I know it's none of my business, and seeing as I'm out of the tourney my word shouldn't matter much. But I don't think Legend Z is playing this game much anymore. He hasn't responded to MTAO at Greed's tourney either. You should start to decide something quick Meat.... or you'll wait like another month. :p

Regarding Shinok! I LOL AT YOU FOR BEING A DOUBLE-POST n00b! :)

[Lord Shinok]

Lieu, I was drunk when I posted last night. :p

I can't really scheduled anything for the weekends because I'm never sure If I will have something else to do, and I might not be available, unless you'd catch me online and I were have time to play, then I would definally play you. Well let me know what times suits you better, so we can get this in as soon as possible.

[meat.eater]

DQ: Legend Z, Sniper Master, Justice.

I'malive and I had a long talk about the Allstar/I'ma situation in terms of activity, and I've agreed to let him sub in the place of the SniperMaster/Justice game.

Bracket update soon.

[Lord Shinok]

Wow, I'm speechless...

[I'malive24/7]

Hey,
We have to play for the GS2!
I can play:
Monday: 5:30 - 9:30 p.m. EST
Tuesday: Probably not at all
Wednesday: 5:30 - 9:30 p.m. EST
Thursday: 5:30 - 9:30 p.m. EST
Friday and any day after that: All day

Starting Friday, I have 10 days off from school, so if you can't meet my times before then, we can definitely play.

-I'ma

Just sent to Graphics.

[Rubbish]

I'ma is a lucky bastard.

[Magician]

Haven't heard anything from wack since he missed our sunday time.

[Lord Shinok]

Tell wack to stop getting wasted. :p

[WaCk-HeAd]

Wow, I was wasted saturday. Didn't see that coming. Didn't get out of bed until 3 PM.

Ehh, I have to check my schedule again. Probably wednesday?

[meat.eater]

Wow, I was wasted saturday. Didn't see that coming. Didn't get out of bed until 3 PM.

Ehh, I have to check my schedule again. Probably wednesday?

Last shot Wack. You have one more appointment to make, then it's a DQ. Settle on the time and be there.

[imagination]

so I now play the loser of Hool and Prof?

edit: my bad i have to go through master tao and whoever he plays first.

[Magician]

Wednesday's no good - I've got another tourny game scheduled that evening.

I intend to spend my Thursday evening with my girlfriend, as I haven't seen her properly in about a week (Disserations SUCK!), and probably most of Friday too, as I'll be helping her with the formentioned disseration.

Basically, the only nights I'm even half-sure I can make will be tomorrow, Friday (possibly) or next Saturday; 12pm, 11pm and 12pm your time respectively.

I do apologise for the skimpyness of these timeslots, but I've got nothing else to offer really. :( This week was always going to be busy for me. :(

Let me know ASAP please,

~Mag

^ sent to Wack.

[The Gold Master]

hi

Pm sent to Deto

hey deto

I am on 9am - 4pm GMT which i think is -8 from your time monday to friday, I also have msn so might be easier msn`ing me when your on my msn is le**dr**@*****.com, hope these times suit you.

thanks

hopefully see you this week deto for game

thanks

[Hoolwath]

Less life, more TAO, Wack!



No need to hurry, though. I PMed Professor? and we will not be playing sooner than the upcoimg weekend. Wack sucks for making Mag wait, though. That is quite irresponsible. It happened what? Three times now? Atleast send a PM before going to town, so that he did not wait like a baboon. For shame.

[WaCk-HeAd]

Yeah yeah yeah. It's pretty lame I'm going to get DQ'ed for being an ass. I'm going to guess (because I didn't check the first page) that nobody is waiting on me besides Magician.

I already apologized to Magician and I'm going to try to make it tonight. I'm not able to send a PM, Hool, because we usually meet after I go to the bar. The bar then takes longer than I expected and I end up getting wasted and missing the agreed upon time. I'm an ass, I know, but give me some slack. I can't just entertain you all day, there are other people who need my awesomeness too.

[Hoolwath]

Ok. My bad. I did not realise you have friends.

[Magician]

Ouch. :p

Nah, it's cool Wack. I'm sure we'll manage to get the game in. :)

[WaCk-HeAd]

Ok. My bad. I did not realise you have friends.

Yeah I don't. I just drink. If only I had your awesome "social intelligence".

I'm pretty sure I can make it tonight Magician. How about midnight my time?

[Lord Shinok]

Hool has no friends. :p

[I'malive24/7]

nothing from Graphics.

I'ma get a TAL point for being more active than like 5 different people :P

[Lord Shinok]

Llrich told me Graphics should be active again soon. I'ma, you're in the top 8 already?

[I'malive24/7]

Practically -_-

I'm not yet, but my most active opponent was star in round 1, and since then, I haven't come close to getting a game out of someone -_-.

If i beat Graphics, or he is DQ'd, then yeah, I'm in the top 8.

[Lord Shinok]

Okay, so who are all in the top 8? I'm not really good with brackets. Lol

[Magician]

Myself, Wack, Hool, Prof, and I'm not sure about the losers bracket yet.

No-one in the losers bracket is in the Top 8:

Winner of (Detonation vs TGM) vs DarkfirePhoenix
Winner of abhimanu vs Lord Shinok
Winner of (Graphics vs I'malive24/7) vs Master TAO
Winner of Legend Z vs Imagination

To make the Top 8.

At least, that's according to the table I've got. I could very well be wrong. Point is, you're not quite in the top 8 yet. :p

[Magician]

Yeah I don't. I just drink. If only I had your awesome "social intelligence".

I'm pretty sure I can make it tonight Magician. How about midnight my time?

So about now, right? ;)

I'm on Rev and waiting, but I'll be going to bed in about 25minutes.

[Lord Shinok]

Myself, Wack, Hool, Prof, and I'm not sure about the losers bracket yet.

No-one in the losers bracket is in the Top 8:

Winner of (Detonation vs TGM) vs DarkfirePhoenix
Winner of abhimanu vs Lord Shinok
Winner of (Graphics vs I'malive24/7) vs Master TAO
Winner of Legend Z vs Imagination

To make the Top 8.

At least, that's according to the table I've got. I could very well be wrong. Point is, you're not quite in the top 8 yet. :p

I already beat abhimanu, and Imag will most likely advance, since Legend Z is inactive.

[Magician]

I already beat abhimanu, and Imag will most likely advance, since Legend Z is inactive.

Didn't know that, apologies.

I just saw him on GL, lol. But yes, he's got a habit of forgetting to PM his opponents. ;)

Anyway, I'm off to bed. Hope to catch you later, Wack.

[Lord Shinok]

Damn, right! You should apologize! :)

[WaCk-HeAd]

Oops! Happened again. Sorry, but I'm in a busy period right now with a load of possibilities opening right now. I often have to stay and drink to talk and such.

I understand Mag is pissed, but I still don't expect a DQ because nobody else is waiting. If Mag decides he doesn't want to arrange a game anymore because I didn't make so many, that's cool. He can take the win.

But if he's still willing I don't understand why meat isn't.

Well, anyway, I'm sorry, but I'm not going to cancel something in real life for the GS2.

Let me know.

- Wack

P.S. totally wasted right now. :bigsmile:

[meat.eater]

That is true that nobody else is waiting. Fine. Just try to get the game in ASAP. The minute a game becomes available that is up to the outcome of your game, I will put a timeline on it. Dealio?

[Magician]

I completely understand Wack. :) Real life > TAO.

Unfortunately, my reality at the moment is full of work, gf (who's doing her dissertation and is completely stressed out to the point where she's barking at me for the smallest thing), and sorting out a number of different things for my appartment.

I won't be free at all until at least Friday evening at the earliest. Even that I can't guarentee, due to proofreading formentioned dissertation. :( Saturday is Lieu's One-Day Tourny, which I intend to play. I can make some time Sunday afternoon, say around about 1-2pm?

[WaCk-HeAd]

We could play now? I'm wasted, but hey, at least the game is played.

[Magician]

Eh, I'm exhausted to hell, but whatever. I doubt we'll get another shot at this.

Rev?

[WaCk-HeAd]

Already there.

[WaCk-HeAd]

WaCk-HeAd loses.

He used wall hack. Totally lame.

[Magician]

Good game, Wack.

s/s on request.

[Rubbish]

Nice Mag :).
& Good luck to Wack with the rest of the tournament :).

[WaCk-HeAd]

[Detonation]

Detonation vs The Gold Master
Winner: Detonation
Gg man, s/s upon request.

[Lord Shinok]

Nice, deto.

Good luck with dfp.

[Lieutenant]

Nice for Mag and Deto! :)

[imagination]

wait so is legend z d/q totally or do i need to try and contact an uncontactable person?

[Lord Shinok]

Not really. He was just d/q'ed from the winners' brackets. PM meat.

[WaCk-HeAd]

Soo... who do I need to play?

[Lord Shinok]

I think you're playing the winner of deto vs. dfp/ vs. me.

[WaCk-HeAd]

Oh, now I really understand why this tuesday was my "last chance". I'm being threatened to get DQ'ed while not only nobody besides Mag was waiting but the other players are also 41401 rounds behind.

Nice.

[Lord Shinok]

Meat just didn't like you.

[imagination]

Hey it seems that you and I need to play for the GS2. What times are you available and in what time zone?

sent to legend z

[Detonation]

Nice, deto.

Good luck with dfp.

Nice for Mag and Deto! :)

Thanks :).

I will PM DFP later on, I know shinok wants to know who will be his opponent really bad lol.

[Isaac-Z]

[Master TAO]

[Lord Shinok]

Thanks :).

I will PM DFP later on, I know shinok wants to know who will be his opponent really bad lol.

Oh, yeah! I'm really excited to find out who I'm going to play. :)

[imagination]

[Isaac-Z]

s/s if needed

[Lord Shinok]

Meat, I'm dropping out of the tourney. Don't ask why. Peace.

[Hoolwath]

Yeah I don't. I just drink. If only I had your awesome "social intelligence".


Ooohhhh, burn.

Me: You do not have friends.
You: No, because I am not as cool as you.

There is no way for me to defend myself!



Prof, reply to my PM! If you do not by tomorrow, I am going to send another one.

[Master TAO]

Meat, I'm dropping out of the tourney. Don't ask why. Peace.

shinny .... Why? :p

[Detonation]

Ok, here is my PM to DFP.

I'm available at any of these times pacific time zone.

Monday: 8:00 PM- 3:00 AM
Tuesday-Thursday: 6:00 PM- 3:00 AM
Friday: 10:00 PM- 4:00 AM

I can't really scheduled anything for the weekends because I'm never sure If I will have something else to do, and I might not be available, unless you'd catch me online and I were have time to play, then I would definally play you So let me know when is the best day and time that suits you.

[I'malive24/7]

nothing from graphics yet.....

[Lord Shinok]

Erm...meat, ignore my other post about dropping out. I was having one of the worst day on TAO. Bad luck and such. I'm still in this. ;)

[Take a Look]

Haha.... It know how that feels

[meat.eater]

Erm...meat, ignore my other post about dropping out. I was having one of the worst day on TAO. Bad luck and such. I'm still in this. ;)

Good lord you're emo and ridiculously overly enveloped by this game...

Brackets updated.

[Lord Shinok]

Oh, sir...I'm sorry for not having anything better to do while I'm looking for a job. You know what? Why can't you spend your god-damned time posting in our NJ 12 vs. Omninoobs war thread? God damn...

[Hoolwath]

Me and Prof are playing today.

[meat.eater]

Oh, sir...I'm sorry for not having anything better to do while I'm looking for a job. You know what? Why can't you spend your god-damned time posting in our NJ 12 vs. Omninoobs war thread? God damn...

There are so many things displeasing about this post.

A) My post was pretty facetious (the "ridiculous" and "emo" part, at least). Apparently I picked the wrong day to play deadpan.
B) The amount of time (or use of time) on the game doesnt have much to do with being overly-enveloped with it.
C) I was posting in that thread was you posted that. :) But I also fully intended to make the post in this thread too.
D) If you do something that I find stupid-ish, I will tell you. Regardless of your status as a wiki-admin, fellow mod, or netjak leader. IROK quit this tourney for a day too. I told him he was stupid for the exact same reason I told you (but he took it much more as me scruffling his hair, not stabbing his open wound again).

Oh well.

[Hoolwath]

Prof did not show up today. I could still play tomorrow I guess, PM me Prof.

[Hoolwath]

Me and Prof rescheduled for Saturday 10 pm my time, 3 pm his time. I cannot play earlier. He couldn't make it yesterday because he got called from work.

[WaCk-HeAd]

Come ooooooooonnnnnnn DFP and Deto, come ooooooooooooooooonnnnnnn

[Lord Shinok]

Agreed.

[Detonation]

Come ooooooooonnnnnnn DFP and Deto, come ooooooooooooooooonnnnnnn

Agreed.

Be patience! :D I PM'ed DFP last friday and he hasn't reply to me yet, but before that he told me he was gonna be inactive this week, so we might get our game in by the end of this week or until next week. He said he was busy with school and stuff, i'm sure he will get back to me soon.

[Lord Shinok]

Cool stuff.

Hey, meaty. I'm just letting you know Graphics hasn't been active for over 2 weeks.

[trugreatness20]

Ill call him and see whats up. Im sure he has his reasons.

[Lord Shinok]

Partying's his reason. :p

[DarkfirePhoenix]

Come ooooooooonnnnnnn DFP and Deto, come ooooooooooooooooonnnnnnn

Sorry, but I am currently in two weeks of exam and essay hell.

[Detonation]

Ok, DFP and I are scheduled to play friday night/saturday morning at 2:00AM pacific time.

Gg.

[Lord Shinok]

Darkfire, just play Wack. I will be d/q'ed from all TAL certified tournaments in awhile.

[Lieutenant]

Darkfire, just play Wack. I will be d/q'ed from all TAL certified tournaments in awhile.

Eh, you don't know what mods will do about your drawing. Don't talk conclusions until it's known. I guess that if you're banned we shall know from a mod, not from you.

[Lord Shinok]

Meat said I was going to face a 1 week ban or longer. They're trying to decide whether how long my ban should be, but I'm getting banned for sure....

[Hoolwath]

Game: Hoolwath vs. The Professor?
Winner: Hoolwath

Comments: We were both rusty, I have not turtled in two weeks, Prof in three... Prof was rustier... I won... Last time it was the other way around and he kicked me.

[The Professor?]

Pretty much. Good game tho. Guess I'll just have to have a repeat GS performance so I can play you again Hool. :p

[Hoolwath]

So I am playing Mag next, right Meat?

[Mithrandir]

So now it’s DFP vs Wack, Legend Z vs Prof, and Mag vs Hool, right?

[Hoolwath]

Yea, if Shinok got DQed, then yes.

Winners bracket:
Magician vs. Hoolwath

Losers bracket:
DarkFirePhoenix vs. Wack-Head
Legend Z vs. The Professor?

[Take a Look]

NVM, sorry

[Mithrandir]

Consider Shinok DQed. At the very least, he is going to be banned for two weeks. So whether or not he receives a full TAL ban, which Meat and I have not decided, he's out of this tournament.

[meat.eater]

Yea, if Shinok got DQed, then yes.

Winners bracket:
Magician vs. Hoolwath

Losers bracket:
DarkFirePhoenix vs. Wack-Head
Legend Z vs. The Professor?

Correct. Sorry, I seem to have misplaced my bracket sheet, but with that few games left, it's not imperative. Thanks for getting games in guys. We're down to the wire now, and we still technically have 2 weeks left in the tourney. So we're fine on time. Arrange your matches and let's git 'er dun!

[Isaac-Z]

My PM to Prof?,
