there was a conflict between HK A and PH schedule T^T.
anongos
What exactly is the conflict?

New schedule:

Changes:
TW B/ FR switched from 11-March to 10-March 12:00 UTC.

*Match times are subject to change.
OnosakiHito
Let's wait for Loctavs another year? It's pretty special and don't need to be used for the second one allready.
Kinomis is pretty nice, normaly I would be for this one, but we had don-chan allready last year.

So let's take MMzz, because of katsu-chan.
But please, make the quality a bit better. :I
anongos
Even newer schedule:

Changes:
PH/HK A moved to 10-March 13:30 UTC
GR A/JP B moved to 10-March 09:30 UTC

*Match time subject to change

Did Angelusmist not tell you about the time change?
Backfire
I'm not really sure if I can play on sunday. We can't make it the earliest match? I am being forced to "go on vacation" on spring break.
anongos
Then please talk to the team you're playing against first. I won't accept any changes until you reach an agreement with them.

It's already Thursday/Friday, and you want to change schedule in weekend? Conversation between international players are really slow since there are various time zones... :S

I guess some teams might be dropped out due to scheduling. There has been some teams having trouble with match schedule and this isn't strange at all, to be honest.

I don't blame you guys about not participating the tournament due to real world reason cause real world is much more important, but even if this tournament is for fun we are pouring quite lots of our time, so please show us some effort to properly participate this TWC.

Oh, and no penalties for 2 vs 2 matches in previous rounds. I changed my mind. But don't forget, if your team can't gather 3 players in time, your team will be kicked out from knock-out stage.

EDIT:
@anongos: As I said before, if schedule overlapping isn't avoidable, just make them overlapped... I hope we can manage that properly.
anongos
So two matches going on at once is fine? Okay then.

And so far, the ones left who want a schedule change are KR A/CH, US B/TW A, and ES/GR B. I can make changes to two of them already.
matthewhln
I hoped it will not happend since I cannot stream both match at a same time

@^: Well but progressing the tournament is more important, I guess.
Ohhh I miss kirisaki TAT

EDIT:
From this round if your team lack's players, your team will get auto-lose. If both team lacks players it is possible to make both teams dropped out.
Loctav
This is just a reminder to ensure that everything goes proper and we don't need any rematches.

For the upcoming Knock-Out-Stage: Group of 16 AND Quarterfinals, teams MUST win 4 instead of 3 games to win the whole match!
anongos
New schedule:

Changes:
KR A/CH match moved to 10 March 11:00 UTC
GR B/ ES match moved to 11 March 19:00 UTC

Still have a schedule to change? Oh my.
anongos
US B and TW A haven't reached a mutual agreement yet. I sent both teams a pm.

Those two should be the last changes to the schedule.

@^^: Hmm, that was 2 days ago...

EDIT:
Germany A vs Japan B : postpone to March 11th, 11:30 UTC. Don't be late, guys.
Nashmun
I really don't know why did you let them postpone the match. Every player of each team was logged in and able to play, so they had to play imo.

They were even yesterday nearly on the way to make a 2 vs 2 because a player was "ill" but able to be online in osu! ? lol
Sorry, but that is not pardon in my eyes.

People were able to make there own teams, so they should know who is trustfull enough to be on every game avaible.
Makar said he wanted either to 2vs2 OR postpone the match, and you said "You're online you have to play blablalba". And now, because you (or your teammates idk) are tired, you want the match to be postponed, don't you find that a little unfair ? :s

I wasn't in FR vs US B so I couldn't control the situation by myself. (That was 5 AM in Korea.) I guess someone else who was in charge (referee of somebody among our staffs) decided not to postpone the match?

EDIT:
Hmm, I don't want flame war or something... but If you felt it is unfair, since I was in charge of this whole tournament so you can say that was ultimately my fault. Sorry about that.

EDIT2:
Korea A vs China is postponed to 11:30 UTC today. (yeah, postponed by 30 minutes.)
Nashmun
Yup, finally everyone agreed to play the match because USA B had their 3 players.

And here the same happens with Germ A, but as he's included, he want to postpone the match. Personnally I don't find it unlogical , but I find it VERY UNFAIR becaus Ono was the first one to say "You MUST play" to USA B.

EDIT : Well, if you decided so, it's okay for me, no need to flame or something. Actually I prefer this match to be as great as possible ^^

@Nashmun: The real reason of postpone our match this time was that our match was set to 13UTC before.
Two days ago they changed it to UTC 9:30 what is way too earlie, we didn't even know that. Yes we got an PM about shedule changes, but didn't know at this time that they have need to change ours, too.
Also makar said he can't play because he was ill, that isn't a reason to not play -> he was online.
Our problem was organize problems, I hope you understand that.

Also I think it is okay that we do it one time because of such reason? Even last year we hadn't such case. Other teams had allready 2~3times 2vs2 matches or postpones although lepidopodus has said strict not to do so at this time.

So it's not your fault lepidopodus, don't worry.

Anyway, I feel really sorry if this is unfair for you guys. orz
Loctav
The match was postponed. Deal with it.

2v2 were done, too, Ono dealt with it, too.

Despite the story, that Ono was calling it unfair about those 2v2 matches, it's no reason to treat him and his team differently now.
And I see no where an unfair behavior in treating everyone equal regardless of their QQing in group stage.
OnosakiHito
Just want clear that: I never said "unfair", I said working agains the voice/rule of the manager of this tournament.
Here was no rule break. lepidopodus, don't worry no one is in rage modus. We are just talking. lol

Edit: @v: That's great what you said Nashmun! I don't want to spam here either. ^^

I can totally understand that, and as I said, if the is going to be betterif we postpone it, well, this is nice.

Huh ? You were online too, so I don't get your point here.


Well, I think we're going to make an infinite loop here, if you want to answer just PM me but I don't think it's really necessary o/
anongos
TW A/US B match won't be changed. Players have told ke they will just stick to the current schedule.
@Ono: I'm sorry that the match was too early. I gave you two days to respond, but because of timezone differences, this can be a very short timeframe.

Anyway, since lepi is okay with simultaneous matches going on at once, I shouldn't need to move other teams around anymore if one team's time change would give them the same match time as aolnother match.
matthewhln
Please inform me by irc or pm next time when schedule changed

I was rage as a mad guy in twc for 10 mins because I didn't notice this change

I am damn sorry
anongos
I didn't know what was happening either. I just woke up a few minutes ago.
