Guys.
As the captain of Poland team, I would like to play 2v2 with Chile A. Reason is simple - we lost contact with one of our members since... week? Maybe even longer, and we can't do anything in this case (Nekoyan). Of course, I talked about it with captain of Chile A team, and he agreed.
Also, I would like to add a backup asap, and if it's possible, to solve problems like this with my team. I didn't expect I would need a backup, but sometimes things going out of control. I guess it's also my fault.
With regards.

Accepting this, I can play a 2v2 with Poland if you accept, staff. This is because we (Chile) can't play tomorrow and Sunday :sAcrith wrote:

Well no postponements will be made anyway, lol. 2 vs 2 between Poland and Chile A will be allowed.
As for the roster change Acrith, please await a response from Loctav since this is a special case.

HArd to admit that,but i'mafraid Ukraine's team will probably play 2 vs 2 match aswell (if spain's captain will accept this) :C
Met Hikkiko today and he said that he'll need to go to his hometown tomorrow.
i'll try to make something about this...

These matches were set well before today, there should be no 2 vs. 2 matches and there is absolutely NO excuse at this point. All teams had their opportunity to submit times. As a captain, you should make sure your team is trustworthy enough to place the tournament on a high priority for at least the next 3 weeks and show up. Such excuses like "he has to go out of town" is unacceptable and any sort of discussion about it will be terminated. Without sufficient information to help us classify each case as special, we will just continue on as if nothing was ever brought up. All these miniscule details were given to you in my first private message to all captains so that these things could be prevented. Do not take advantage of the system that has been set up. You abuse it, you suffer the consequences.totoco wrote:

Anyways, it seems like the first REAL match will be Canada B vs. Philippines...damn I swear, there should be consequences for teams who show up with only two members without reason.
No one knew this could happen :/

Just wait for Loctavs/staffs decission about this 2 vs 2 case.
Also you can read following in the rules:
Good luck to the praticipants!
Also you can read following in the rules:
13. 2 vs 2 match is available only in the Group stage if no more than 3 players in one of two teams can be ready for the match.
13-1. Captains of both teams should agree and permission of tournament manager is needed.
13-2. The manager can disqualify a team if the team abuses 3 vs 3 match.
Good luck to the praticipants!

What's this talk of best of 5? The rules clearly state that is it first to 4 wins (Best of 7.) Have the rules changed without notifying anybody?
Edit: Should Chile not have won on Starmine? Regardless of the problems with rules and such? They won 4 matches.

In future, please refer to the rule that is supposed to explain it, not to something else.
Also made huge changes on how refereeing works. Everyone got informed. Should simplify a lot. Adjusted match instructions according to it. Please consult them to notice the changes. Thank you.

....sooo.......... can i ask for permission to have 2v2 game in case if one of our teammates will fail to come at time (unexpected last second problems)?
I guess I failed to emphasize that it's not against the rules to have a 2v2 match in group stage, lol. However this strictness is to prepare teams for what kind of consequences will incur if such a fault were to happen past group stage. It will be allowed, totoco.
Thank you! ^^
sorry about that :c

i have to ask it,was not blooming feeling and Owens on the previous world cup?
i thought map selectors cant choose maps that were on previous world cups...
i thought map selectors cant choose maps that were on previous world cups...
Why shouldn't they be allowed to do that?
Dunno,when i read the "you can hint some maps to the map selectors" i tell onosakihito that disconnected hardkore (verdi's taiko oni) is a great map and he told me that they cant choose maps from previous TWC's...sorry if im confused Dx
First it was planed not to use such maps, but then we changed our opinion once again.

R1-2 map pool doesn't really make much sense, difficulty of some songs in this round are easier than R1-1... whereas hardest picks are mod picks when they'd compete for hardest pick even without mods.

Imo some maps like unhappy refrain and meme are actually harder than those in 1-1
While maps like prayer are slower and easier, which is what R1-1 lacked
But I somehow agree that mod picks, esp snow goose are generally harder picks in the mappool
Maybe snow goose is a bit too hard when compared with other maps ?

Actually we were even suprised how some matches went out. Standards seems to be this year a bit lower.
So the idea came out to have one easier and one harder map in every mod-section.
E.g.: DT - Both songs 130BPM but different level.
NoMod has a bigger spread to give people a bigger choice.
We are endeavored to keep it enjoyable.
Sorry for the tardiness, I've been quite busy as of late.
The schedule is now updated. Please look for your match and make sure that you can attend. Many teams (regardless of if they sent in their times) had to be force scheduled into a different time and/or date because of the upcoming Chinese New Year holiday. I apologize for this inconvenience and for the messy schedule this week.
If any problems are seen, report them to me (or Haruka if I'm not available) so they can be fixed as soon as possible. I can't stay on much longer so the best I can do with confirmation messages is link you here, the OP and/or the schedule itself.
As for staff, your schedules are now updated. Please take a look through your times and see which matches you can attend. Cross out any times in which you cannot make or contact me so I can do it for you (if you know of the other staff members who have access, do talk to them if I'm not around).

Dear tournament staff, i need an advice.
as you may know, last week one of our memmbers refused to join a game just before the tournament begun, and he haven't shownt up yet. That... irresponsible... person has deleted his page in "local" sns and doesn't answer the phone.
What should we do, as a team, if he won't show up until the next game?
p.s. about scedule: our team can't attend on Saturday at 22:00 utc. it's too late for all of us :C
